Anyone know when the players fly out? Would assume it'll be today at some point.

Nice touch by the club to put on free travel, but personally, I'd prefer to pay the extra £30/£40 travel costs and have no restrictions. The last thing I want is to be at the ground 2 hours before kick off, leaving minimal time to find somewhere to grab a beer. Are many others planning alternative travel?

Looking to head into Jerusalem, from Tel Aviv, on the Friday as heading home early Saturday morning. Trains back look a bit of a nightmare (Last train at about 2pm). I would imagine it has been mentioned previously, but do any of our Israeli friends have any cheap alternatives, which leave a little later? It would be good to also visit the Dead Sea, but I would assume that a day (with no car) wouldn't be enough time or cost effective? P.S any tips of things to do / visit in both Tel Aviv and Jerusalem would be much appreciated.

This. Absolutely cracking 'banta'...

I've never understood why anyone over the age of 14 would want to wear a replica kit anyway, especially one that is a couple of years old!? A replica shirt over the top of a jumper is nearly as bad a fancy dress

Try putting 'southampton fc login' into google (choose top link)... Should put you straight in. Thank me later, a beer in Milan should do...

A small group around 10/20 of their 'ultra's' where intent in causing trouble, and when they released they couldn't get at the home section they started fighting each other. Just like all any other eastern European team, I expected nothing less. It'll certainly be entertaining out there....

Puel clearly has no control over the players. Further evidence 'clueless Claude' needs to go.

Wednesday - Friday / Saturday still around £250 if you're willing to go via Kiev. I know a few are going via Istanbul

A good Idea, but a week or two late as I would guess that most not staying in Be'er Sheva have already made travel arrangements. I'm surprised the club didn't suggest this earlier given that their package was never going ahead at that price.

I suspect Be'er Sheva will be used as part of the Prague criteria.

Can you recommend the best place us to have a drink before the game? After a quick look on Google Maps, there doesn't appear to be a great deal about...

At least you'll be safe from the 'ultra's' whilst watching it on TV then...

More than 5 away games over the last 2 seasons have made it to season ticket holders with no away games / general sale.... Poor argument. As for your 25 seasons, this gives you priority over those who don't have a ST. I can't understand how anyone could argue with the criteria. It is no different to the domestic away ticketing process, what did you expect? I would guess that Be'er Sheva would make general sale. It might be worth looking into this if you want to see your club play abroad in Europe.

Personally I'm fairly sure they will check ID upon entry, but I know a few who are going to risk it on others tickets. They will also be getting home end tickets as well, to cover if they get rejected from the away section.

I would guess it will be; ST holders who attended Midtjylland & Be'er Sheva ST holders who attended Be'er Sheva (possibly then ST holders who attended Midtjylland) ST holders who attended at least 15 away games during the 2015/16 season and so on... Would depend on allocation size but it might filter down to ST holders with no away games but can't see it making general sale. That said, it really depends on allocation. Will be interesting to see if tickets are collection only for Milan. It works well when you only have a couple of hundred like Midtjylland, Prague and Be'er Sheva, but I would imagine this being a nightmare if we have 4/5000. FWIW I have been told that in Italy they ask for ID upon entry (name printed on ticket) but I don't know how true this is??

klinsmann?

Am I right in saying that until we give Everton permission to speak to Koeman they can't 'make him an offer'. Initial discussions may have taken place between Everton and Agent of which they would out line what they would offer ect... His Agent is not going to admit that an offer is on the table / been agreed before we have given them permission to do so. IMO we survived when we had to replace a better manager in Pochettino and we will do again when we replace Koeman.

Oriol Romeu works better IMO

Would be interested to hear your justification as to why they shouldn't have their seat reserved? If you were STH, who invests £600+ a year into the club, would you not be annoyed to lose out on your seat to someone who attends 1 or 2 games a year? No doubt you are one of those moaning about not getting a Vitesse ticket having only attended 1 away game in the last 5 years.

I don't want Leicester or Tottenham to win the league, so lets beat them both and watch Arsenal steal it on the last day!

He's the worst of them all. Unsure what the reception was like from the Northam, but I thought he got off lightly from where I was sat in Itchen North.

Starting to show the benefit of a decent run in the team. He was a bit unlucky with injury and never really suited our style.

I must admit, I did think it would be too many syllables for our fanbase
