I see they have already sold around 2000 tickets, and it's all ticket for them.
Is it the same for us?

Doesn't say anything on the O/S.
Should be a great atmosphere, more-so after we hammer the franchise tomorrow!!! :nod:

Makes me nervous when people say things like this !

If we get dicked I will blame you, you are worse than Motson

Only reason I can think of for them making it all ticket for Southampton is that they think they'll sell out and don't want fans travelling up without a ticket. Bit pointless though as they'll just end up in the home section if they can't get a ticket in the away section.

Other than the end of last season, Southampton fans are generally pretty well behaved. Plus they have loads of fit bird supporters, I reckon they've got the fittest in the country - never seen so much gash at any other ground.

One of the lads i used to work with is a proper Southampton Hoolie. And i mean proper, he came into work once after an away "friendly" in Sweden with bruises all over where they got in a ruck with some police and got truncheoned and nicked. He lives in Swindon as well, so he'll be there. He used to say if you lose a match on the field, make sure you win it off the field. Nice bloke though. :)

I bet you are only saying that because he reads this forum! :nod:

Yeah the was someone at new college who (and FB will remember this) was a southampton fan who was nicknamed "Armchair" cos he never went to any games. Maybe it got to him as he then proceeded to go to uni in Southampton and blow his student loan going to every game home and away and got in with the firm there. Heard rumours of lads smoking crack in the back of minibuses. Doubt its the same guy you're talking about.

I went to college with a lad in Swindon who was a S'oton fan... he's since developed a weird cockney accent, and once went to a pre-season game in Bucharest. Mental.

Could be the same bloke. French name per chance?

Pierre Clueso?

I never went to College and I dont know any Southampton Fans.

I can back up those claims.

I went to Charlton Vs Southampton the year they got to the Cup Final and the gash count was very high that day plus it was roasting which made it even better.

I can't wait for this game.The thought of all the gash is just too much!But then you can never have too much gash can you,really?

larwood, you just made me dribble spaghetti putanesca down my shirt.

Of course, the new away shirt comes out on Tuesday, also.

Has it a gash down the front?

My ex was a saints fan! she looked liKe gash!

Bloody stupid time for a game, Mid bloody week on a Tuesday this early in the season.

Not that I'm bitter I'm missing it or anything..

 :eatkf:

Larwood >Soton gash

I read somewhere (another forum) that Saints have already sold 2,100 tickets.

sure it wasn't this forum, this thread, first post? :D

 :-[  This keeps happening to me......I have got into the habit of reading the posts from end to beginning; I hadn't got that far  ???

Away in Cornwall.............Good luck town.

If we get a win today then it be over 10k attendance on tuesday

whoops

I think anybody who was chosing between today and Tuesday will have chosen Tuesday night's game, so hopefully we'll still get a decent crowd. I know quite a few people are making a special effort for this one so maybe there will still be a decent number there. We need to put our Tuesday night hat on, rather than our Saturday hat, as after 3 games we've only looked any good midweek so far this season!

I remember some of their fans ringing 606 complaining about how they were treated in the Intel Stand, during the cup game in 95/96.  Fucking Gordon Watson did us again, then they saw us off easily in the replay.  I smashed my leg on one of their wooden chairs at The Dell, then broke the same leg the week after and missed the 2-0 at Peterborough.

While I couldn't care much about them myself, I'd bet some of our fans in the South of the county have no love lost.
