Two tickets purchased without any problem this morning Seems like there's a fair chunk left for those beyond the current criteria. Good news !!
-
According to Milan boss who failed to get him,Caseres can play anywhere across the back, having played in the centre & on the right for Juventus and also on the left for Uruguay

Not the nine o'clock news Swedish chemists. Always remembered that too!!

Thought it's more like 21k

Thank you Saints. A fantastic 2 legs. Tears of joy tonight. It's the chance of having fantastic nights like this that keeps us hoping and keeps us dreaming. We don't get it that often. But it's worth the wait!! Wembley here we come !!! Saints...thank you!!

So...Claude's rotation roulette, ambition-less side to side style and gripping interviews have p****d a good few folk off! Right then Who's up next? I'm sure someone will trawl the World leagues and find some fancy fellas with a stat pack to match...but with no European football and an unlikely prospect of it next season plus a possible bottom half battle on the horizon, there's only the tricky League Cup Semi v L'pool to entice a new leader in January Who'd take it? Some unlikely characters to kick off with. Big Sam & Little Sammy. Uncle Woy Hodgson & a Neville The Return of Nigel Adkins/Atkins Young Eddie from Boscombe Both Nevilles Hapoel Beer Goggles manager One De Boer or two A Jose & Kelvin dream team Give it to Les ! You decide!!! (What a **** night it's been.....a list for fun....f**k it)

Yep! My mate had one of those,just the one, then changed the size! Lovely pizza though!

Europa League 2016/2017 (Died 8/12/2016)

Agree. Although I no longer have a SO post code , I've had the same customer number for years, am on the data base and am a member. Can't see why I would be a 'risk' so to speak. My biggest hurdle is the 450 miles from my place to St Mary's. Ha! Brexit gone mad ! -

No argument as I'm not blaming the club for my individual circumstances. As I said in a previous post. The criteria is the question. Purchase history hasn't been attached to other games, Hapoel away went to open general sale for example. Plus the allocation is extremely large and tickets will effectively be returned to Inter leaving a number of fans who are on the data base and known to the club missing out for reasons as yet not disclosed? I held a S/T for 8 straight seasons before moving from the area in 2011 and am now a member. Club state that due to system update in 2012 all 'previous history' now commences from 2012 onwards, which is a bit disappointing. -

That's the Catch 22 really, as there's a group of them all with S/T & plenty aways, it means tickets together can all be guaranteed at first phase of any sale (usually 2/3 of them don't travel). Our member status would kick in later in sales window and may not even reach us in the case of a popular game. So them purchasing allowed us to make travel plans etc with no fear of disappointment. (Hope that made sense). Strange that having the same customer number for years doesn't meet the 'ad hoc' criteria the club have set for Inter game. No other recent matches have had this particular set of criteria. Usually Members then General if tickets still available. In this case there are plenty still available. Several long chats with various ticket office staff has still left me none the wiser as to why. -

Cheers for the info sir. That certainly sounds a good deal. We're right up over the border. There was a Scottish Saints at one time but was poorly run. Time for another perhaps....... -

My son and I are in that same boat. Moved up north in 2011 after 8 straight seasons as S/Ts. Been to loads of northern away games since but tickets have been purchased by friends we sat beside at St Mary's so we could meet up and sit together. This of course means we have no recent purchase history. Seems strange to have negotiated a larger allocation only to see a fair number of sales not taken up due to 'history' criteria. Members or at least an entry on the database would offer as much detail as say, having bought one ticket two seasons ago. Inter at home tickets are currently being promoted alongside purchasing a membership but not the same has been applied to away fixture, even the Israel trip went to general sale! Was informed that due to a system upgrade in 2012 all history prior to that is effectively wiped...! Hopefully the club will have a change of heart and open sales out over the next couple of days and allow more Saints to enjoy the game. -
That's true, but I quite like it and not all players were back for those friendlies. I'm sure it will something different though. See what the new boss comes up with
-
Yep. That'll do to kick off with.

Saints Transfers Thread - Deadline Day
sydenhamssocks replied to Saint Charlie's topic in The Saints
Thought signing him might have been on the cards. A Vic replacement and very good by all accounts. Leicester nipped in there ! -
Haha! Yep Muller too I wouldn't have him in a Saints shirt either. Inept penalty takers every one. I can't agree with you enough. In fact it's impossible to imagine a summing up more concisely done than is one.
-
Just thinking the same. When Shearer flagged up how Pelle & Eder have played close to each other it shows how we never really got anyone to do that job with Graziano like Eder has. He seems to be on a long term loan at Inter. Unlikely I suppose but would be interesting. Mind you, Conte as manager probably has something to do with it !
-
Yeah. Probably right. Shame though, Sammy was good value. Black not as bad a coach as being made out. Been in the game a long time.
-
Is Black taking over from Erwin(assistant Mngr) or replacing Sammy ??
-
Classier exit than others in the past...bit harder to replace than some ....but not impossible.
-
It's Montella !
-
Montella would be a good shout. Currently at Sampdoria. I've followed Fiorentinas fortunes for a few years and he was doing a great job until, as you say, a disagreement with owners. Something to do with 'lack of respect'. Italian owners hire and fire at will though 3x 4th place finishes in Serie A (Europa qualification) 1x Runner up Coppa Italia 2014 Semi final of Europa league 14/15.(lost to Seville) Worth a look ?!?!

Oh no you wouldn't!!

No. He's just tweeted a pic of himself holding an Everton shirt which was clearly taken on his holiday last week ! snake
