Not an awful lot of competition to be honest . Although I thought Charlton at home to Luton might of attracted a few more.

If Holmes' injury is as serious as NA intimated , should we not consider recalling Puncheon from his loan at Millwall. I dont like the idea of having all our eggs in one basket with AOC , as he only needs a drop in form , or heaven forbid an injury , and we're fooked.

This is true . But last year Brighton had a new manager and we underestimated both them , and Poyets influence on his new team. This time around will be different . Everybody is expecting a tough challenge and we will be ready for them .

Need to win tuesday just to stand still league position wise. Bournemouth , Carlisle , Charlton , Colchester , Huddersfield , Peterborough , and Sheffield Wednesday all have winable home games.

That point was put to NA when the team bus pulled into the services at Norton Canes on the way home. He was also asked why we cant defend corners. His refreshingly honest reply was that someone wasn't doing what he had been told to do .Fair play to him for bothering to come over and chat with the fans.

921 Saints fans at Carlisle last season according to last weeks programme , which was looking ahead to this weeks match.

Big game at Brighton eh . Is that why you took the mighty impressive number of 478 fans. To be fair , it was on telly , and it was a nice day to stay on the beach . 478. Pathetic.

No booze on coaches I'm afraid.

It could of been worse , we nearly got weedie doh !

Yeah , sat behind me in a grey hoodie , just in front of Alex Chamberleins old man.

He didn't figure last in last nights game against the beach volleyballers , I'd assumed he was injured. But I see he's been called up for the French u21s tonight.

Away ground site says ground capacity 10700. Away allocation is normally 1500 , but can be increased to 2000.

Now confirmed on OS.

I'm sat behind that open ended goal , and nobody has asked for my permission to use my image rights . I'm gonna sue for 1.5m

We've sold the original 1500 allocation and have been given another 1000. Well done everybody.

Carlisle have only just realised Saints fans are buying up their allocation. They have today changed their policy of selling to anyone who asks for one to 1) Must be on Carlisle database. 2) Must live in Cumbria region. A little too late I think.

I eventually got through on the 01271 number after 1 1/2 hrs and was not allowed an extra ticket as I had already claimed my 2 from my ST. BOOOO. Lucky you though.

Emphasis on old. It was quite embarresing tbh.Saints old boy Paul Williams ,who was sat just across the aisle in the hospitality had to leave with his baby because it looked like boiling over.I know the pompey couple shouldn't of been there , but was it necessary for a Saints fan to fun down and spit on the old bloke. Having said all that , the old woman didn't do herself any favours by wearing the brightest blue coat imaginable. The whole thing very sad really.

Not going to be a very big crowd tonight. Majority of Dons fans seem to think there will be fewer than 10000 , and that includes 3000 of us. Hmm.

Yellow and Blue.

Theres no mention of this loan on the OS or Doncaster OS. Where did the information come from ?

Whatever happened to Raccine . Is he injured ? Did we flog him ? I saw him a couple of times and he looked very promising.

NickG . I just assumed it was his family as they were together .

I would also add that he was in a shirt and jeans , not a creamy kind of suit . I did not see who ever that was.

I can confirm that Jaidi and his family were in the Directors box for the first half. I had a clear view from my seat in the Itchen.
