can't work out why people do not check the O/S for ticket details http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10280~2431770,00.html ticket office opening hours given on seperate article

S****horpe played Newcastle on SKY on thursday and still played Sheff Weds Saturday so there is definately double standards here

Aginast Leeds Riuchardson was immense and he had the dangerous Gradel in his pocket for most of the game

When wearing my Ricky Lambert t shirt with No.7 on back at Universal in Florida last summer, first I met a Leeds fan (there not all bad) who assured me that Saints would get promoted last season, then met into a a woman from Liverpool and her family in hour long queue for Harry Potter ride, who assured me that her son was one of Ricky's best mates. Also met several other Saints fans in kit in Disney

I notice all those £9 single First Class tickets have disappeared from the SE Trains website now !!, NB return travel to Derby from London available at £35 at moment using two singles

Afraid not, Mick Strickland London Saints Chairman and travel officer is dealing with it for London Saints

I think you should check your tickets, London Saints booked same tickets initially for Derby and then for Barnsley but found out in days leading up to Barnsley game that tickets were only upgrade from 2nd to 1st class At St Pancras on day of Barnsley game numerous people turned up thinking tickets were valid only to be told not the case without standard class return ticket, this effected quite a few Brentford fans on their way to Sheff utd in particular At the moment there is an enquiry going on at South East trains as website was clearly misleading (making it appear these are 1st Class tickets when in fact only upgrade) and many travellers, and East Midlands trains whose staff took loads of stick through no fault of their own, are not at all happy about what has happened

we would have won at Arsenal too, were we were 2-0 up, if it hadn't have been for the dodgy ref who played 8 mins of injury time and should of sent off Paul Davis for an off the ball punch that broke Glenn Cockerill's jaw

I'll be surprised if we get more than 22-23k , Millwall given 1900 tickets and haven't sold them yet according to their website

New grounds not totally true we still took 1000 to Carlise last season when are form wasn't too good and nearly 700 to Hartlepool last season

When I was on holiday in France a couple of weeks ago my accomodation had cable TV including a German Sports Channel where you could get a season ticket on German SKY for the Bundersleague coverage for 29 euros for the season which made what SKY charge us here expensvie.

Seems that this offer is misleading, it is only for first class upgrade not first class travel, although thats not how it's shown on South Eastern website Sorry for earlier information

Train tickets are still avaiable on South East Trains website £18 return First Class (2 x £9 singles) from St Pancras to Sheffield + about another £4 return form Sheffield to Barnsley if anyones interested http://tickets.southeasternrailway.co.uk/se/en/JourneyPlanning/MixingDeck

If it's just over the dual carraigeway from the Station it's the Brewery Tap, an excellent pub with many of the same beers Oakhams as Charters

I see on their website Coors are resposiblefor Doombar http://www.molsoncoors.com/en/About%20Us/Our%20Markets/~/link.aspx?_id=8A6AB6CAEEDD45EDA60B2C9E1C565526&_z=z something like that in the ground would be excellent

Unfortunately Yes This is down to the fact that too many supporters in the past have abused the previous systems eg claiming under 17 or 21 tickets when older etc. This year wiht free season tickets for kids under 11 in Chapel I would imagine many would have claimed their 12 or 13 year olds were under 11 if proof hadn't been necessary. The same with the Installament Plan, this has been tightened up so people can't pay initial payments than stop making payments as many did in the past. So now you only get tickets for first 7 games until they've had confirmation that you've paid for ticket in full. It's not ideal but if people hadn't taken the p*ss in tha past this wouldn't be necessary

If you go by train Start at Ministry of Ale - just outside Burnley / Manchester Rd station Then try The Bridge Bierhus, which is 10-15 walk from ground an excellent pub although it does get crowded before and after games http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/23/23111/Bridge_Bier_Huis/Burnley

Ipswich with Paul Jewell in charge could do well, they've already been busy in the transfer market bringing in Chopra, Ingamarsen and Ellington There are many good teams in this league, so I'd be happy with mid table as things stand at the moment

I thought the beer at Charters (the Barge) was excellent 12 different real ales, all the ones I tried were decent. I was in there most of the afternoon before going inot hospitality, so must of left before it got too crowded.

London Saints do travel to most away games by train, there is a membership fee to pay for regular newsletters and to pay for membership of APFSCIL(which helps us get subsidised rail travel), plus the cost of social activities such as Pool, Darts and Cricket. Membership secretary Ray Betts will give you details, i deal with match ticket purchases. Last Season all our regular fans were able to obtain tickets for all away games desapite restricted allocations. Both Ray and my contact details are on London Saints website under LSSC contacts, I'm Terry by the way

I know some Saints season ticket holders from Maidstone and Ashford. The one from Maidstone drives to most home games, but travels with London Saints to away games outside of London.

I managed to organise for my son to be mascot at Brentford two seasons ago. This was done directly with Brentford, nothing to do with Saints even though my son is Junior Saint member I think it normally costs a little to be mascot at away game but helped by a fellow London Saint who's on Middlesex FA my sons mascot appearence was free. He had a brilliant evening mixing with the players in the dressing room before the game, getting all the teams autographs and the players and staff, especially Alan Pardew were brilliant with him and made him feel completely at home. He then lead the team out onto the pitch with Jose Fonte We have got many photo's of the day including great one of him on the pitch with Fonte, ref, opposing captain before the game. If you get the chance to get your kids as mascot I'd recoomend it.

Another Real Ale fan here who doesn't have a beard I don't see why it's impractable to provide real ale as Brighton are managing to supply decent beer in their new ground http://www.seagulls.co.uk/page/Stadium/0,,10433~2207114,00.html

I went to both games Trip to Anderlecht was great, I was on one of a couple of coaches that started at Salisbury and picked up others in Southampton then off to Dover for night crossing to Ostend. We were made to stop at Gent for hours on way to game, everyone got wrecked Great game, with over 2000 Saints fans there and Channon's goal should never have been disallowed. 2nd leg was great night at the Dell we had them on the run and at 2-0 up on the night (2-2 on aggregate) we looked like we might win tie, until Jim Steele's mistake gave them a goal. Still was a good run in competition, getting to Quarter Finals. I went to Marseilles in first round too , but that's another story

I think his name is Gary Burrell and he's the judge who put away loads of Saints fans after P*mpey Cup game, so on that basis we will not see Barney for a while
