I’ve read they’re a physical side and will be aggressive and shithousing all over the pitch, fortunately we can do a bit of that ourselves now so should be a feisty affair. “Get into ‘em”

Fans will really play a part now, isn't really showing right now but fatigue will likely set in at some point playing intense games twice a week. We've been patting ourselves on the back for backing against Arsenal , really got to be like that every time. Like Wrexham before, looks a tough test but we can keep this going. 3-0.

Beat me to it, just worry about the next match. We’re only nailed on for one Wembley trip, even if we make the playoffs it will be tough with the heavy match schedule we’ve got coming up, if we did most would still want to be there.

Wrexham's tight little ground will be the polar opposite of the sedate home support of Craven Cottage, it will be noisy and raucous. We only got 1,200 tickets (a sizeable chunk of that went to corp, etc), they'll do well to make a dent in the atmosphere. Winning will help.

How old is he? The club have been doing half price memberships recently so just £7.50 for a junior. Only £15 for an adult which is a small price to pay on top if it shunts you up the pecking order. https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/membership

I would imagine half price memberships will be snapped up now with our run-in and potential clamour for tickets https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/membership

wrong thread...carry on

Been mentioned we've been given an extra 300 tickets to take the allocation to just over 2,700. These are probably the extras now on sale.

A bit crap that the FA Cup quarters clash with the Easter weekend fixtures, usually throws up some good games. Palace away in 2012 (FFS 14 years ago) 6,000 up there back in the day the home support was pretty shit at Selhurst, their ultras consisted of about a dozen lads right down in the corner just constantly banging a drum. Won 2-0, Rickie Lambert brace, happy days.

Ahem…. “you’re “

Good Morning Christophe, There's actually a decent selection of restaurants available in the city centre and whether British, Indian, Asian, Italian, French, Greek, Turkish, steak houses, etc and whether you'll be looking for a top-end experience or more wallet-friendly, there's a reasonable choice. There's a good selection at Ocean Village which is a pleasant setting or a good varied choice at Westquay South next door to the shopping centre. There's plenty more scattered about elsewhere, I'll let others make recommendations. Most pubs and bars will be packed, particularly as there will be around twice as many away fans for this one as it's a cup game and will be in town early and probably take over a few. Again, your choice of drink, real ale, cheap beer, would determine a recommendation. If you eat at Ocean Village on match day you could always drink around there or nearby Oxford Street or a walk back towards West Quay would take you to the Wool House for a nice old building. I would imagine the Fanzone behind the Northam Stand may be suitable for yourself where they also have a live band on before the game. Half-and-half scarves will be on sale everywhere, unfortunately, most of us detest them. Southampton is more industrial rather than a tourist destination but the city centre is very green with massive parks through the centre, great when the sun is shining, There's Sea City museum (with the Titanic story), Solent Sky museum (a small aviation display - near Ocean Village), Tudor House, various city walks around the Walls and Vaults (Southampton was once ransacked by the French...take care!). Of course if you'd like to venture further afield then London is little more than an hour on the train (but expensive!) or closer by Winchester is a very nice cathedral city to visit, 15 minutes on the train from Central station. Hope that helps a bit, others may offer more details. https://www.visitsouthampton.co.uk/easter/

Only a handful of tickets left for this almost all in the usual Chapel block. Arsenal sold their allocation, clearly a big day out for them….an FA Cup day on the beer on the sunny south coast, what’s not to like?

…and It’s A Knockout down the Sports Centre in the run up….?

Nutshell.

If a 20 minute or so walk is OK for the young 'uns then the Marlands is a good place to park. Can always get a space and you just pay when you get back so no racing to get there. Alternatively, I think it's £4.50 for all day parking in the Toys-R-Us car park next door.
