Hopefully the fans respond in the same way, St Mary's atmosphere has been mostly disappointing. Sold out since last week (ticket exchange open) with home fans in the visitors section again but this doesn't really change things. Anything less than 3 points going into the Ipswich game 3 days later will be a right knock-back.

😎yeah, *cough* unforgettable night……… Bob Marley at the Fleming Arms was a bit of a coup back in the day though

Gets a mention in this BBC article today, anyone from here there that night? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68624032

Why would we want Larry Grayson on our shirts?

Sounds like he was real hero. Condolences to his nearest and dearest - RIP

FFS She said it was "disappointing" that photos of the sculpture had been released early because she wanted "the community to enjoy the full experience of the launch" It's Ted MKI revisited! Edit: Looking again it's more Terry Paine than Harry Kane - think I'd keep the green bench but ditch the thing sat on it for scrap

I’ve probably watched more Big Match Revisited than I have MOTD or any other football show in the past few years - from a SFC perspective I’d highly recommend the Saints v Fulham (Best/Marsh) and Saints v Man Utd FA Cup 5th Round 1977 for a bit of 70s nostalgia.

Yep, some top footballers based in the area doing national service were allowed to ‘guest’ for them it kick-started their ‘golden era’. They also allowed thousands of locally based servicemen into the ground for free but despite their brief league and cup success they only ever saw two attendances just over 50,000 in a ground that held 58,000 at its peak. Here Endeth today’s history lesson.

Probably close, they’re clearing all kits and training gear at 50% off at mo so will want to shift as much dead stock as they can before. Or maybe they’ve had to send back all the new shirts with PL badges on the sleeves…………

Another long journey but potential to take a lot up there. Very good pricing and U12s free with adult. Adult - £25.00 Over-65 - £20.00 18-23 - £15.00 Under-18 – £10.00 Under-12 – Free All Under-12 tickets must be bought with a Full Paying Adult/18-23 ticket

Yep it's a bit more edgy in the Turkish leagues. Nice to see Tadic still going strong in the fight to be Super Lig champions, a couple of assists yesterday.

They don't appear overly impressed with him in this place https://www.juventuz.com/threads/carlos-alcaraz.45231/page-27

Probably planned for the Preston match and then someone forgot.......................................

Have they found the culprit?

More space to park away coaches next season……..

Just having a browse over on the UI and someone has linked this - Stoke proposing similar to us regarding away fans but putting safe standing next to where they put aways in the corner (equivalent to the Chapel). https://www.stokecityfc.com/news/2024/march/05/potters-announce-atmosphere-enhancing-plans/ I see they’re also letting fans have a say on the design of the new kit (though hard to believe it’s not already decided in March)

Not very low with only 2,000 up for grabs, I would think lucky to reach the weekend. The equivalent fixture over an Easter period the last time we were in this division saw over 6,000 at Palace, these would have gone quickly at any point of the season but all things considered tickets will be like gold dust.

Just ours? I post on one football forum and a family WhatsApp thingy so social media kind of passes me by, I haven't got the slightest interest in it and am getting a bit long in the tooth to be posting on here for much longer tbh. Loved the old paper fanzines and original football phone-ins (Danny Baker, Lofty) but haven't listened in to them for years for all the dinlos that now call in. I'm aware the laws protect all these anonymous abusers but I would imagine a lot of them probably ain't fans of that club but 'rivals' masquerading - laws may change and come back and bite some on butt, we all leave a footprint posting online and I'd bet a lot of the abuse would filter back to some gutless cunts who have absolutely no connection to the victim other than a target for their hate and bile. Weirdos.

Scousers have been doing it (well) since the 70s, others have done it too over the years since I started going in the 71/72 season but it was generally seen as our song. Can't ever remember Spurs doing it at all (but apparently they did occasionally in the 60s). They've really only been known to do the slow version in more recent times...but...I can certainly remember Saints fans doing a slow (fookin boring) version back in the 80s but thankfully fizzled out, probably because it was so monotonous and reverted back to the original way.

It wouldn't bother me if I never heard 'our song' again, it's been so over done season after season, the slow dirge that now gets trotted out constantly does my head in. And other club's fans do it far better tbh. Great numbers last night but poor vocal support, just the usual strained OWTSzzzzz, a couple of skate and Aribo efforts and nobody knows what to do when we get a corner. Usually the same away from home, home team in red, us in aways and still some are trying to get 'Come on you reds' going. Confused looks from most of the other Saints and home fans. Just a collective roar would do, always felt that noise was more important than songs.

If we end up hanging around in the lower leagues for a few seasons then we may see him back #unfinishedbusiness

Make them walk along the train tracks to get on at St Denys. Can't really see another option for this really.
