Think London Saints booked on 9am from Euston get to Manchester 11.10 so hopefully too early for Millwall and West Ham, but might be fun on way back !

Saw him play at Cheltenham pre-season seemed incapable of passing to a teamate and kept mis-timing his challanges and fouling the opposition, all he could do well was hoof the ball aimlessly forward. Maybe it's these atributes that pursuaded Mr Lowe to sign him ! Personally, I can't understand why he's here and how he justifying his wages.

Mick Strickland form London Saints may have one spare cheapish return ticket from Euston to Carlisle going on 9.30 arriving 12.45, return 17.52 Euston 21.47 His contact details are on London Saints website contacts section try him on Home Telephone number, email address is incorrect so don't use that http://www.londonsaints.com/moxie/19/lssc-contacts.shtml

I'm on 77 now, but will be minimum of 81 by end of the season with visits to Hartlepool, Walsall (been to their old ground), Colchester (new ground, aging been to old one ) and MK Dons to look forward to. Especially looking forward to overnight stay for Hartlepool where I think we'll have a good turn out despite it being played on tuesday night, I know of loads of London Saints definately going.

The Dirty Leeds fans took Saints come back form 2-0 down to draw 2-2 draw in the first leg at Elland Road badly too, they were vertually line up outside the ground to beat up Saints fans and the Police did nothing, I ebded uo with a thicjk lip that night after getting hit from behind by a less than friendly local and only just made it back to the car in one piece that night.

didn't realise Luton were still in Administration !

I'm sure we'll get 15,000 Saturday And even more for Yeovil as they will bring a couple of thousand with them.

It was difficult to get any atmoshere going in an open end like that but thought those who went did Ok generally Nice to meet Ericofarabia in Crown before the game, yet another great real ale pub. On the game front should have finished the game off well before the end, but no copmplaints about their penalty. However couln't understand at the time and stil cna't after watching online and on TV why Saga's goal was disallowed, two derfenders on far post definately played him onside and you can see in thier faces that they thought goal was Ok, Porr poor decision by a poor official. Trotman and Hammond again played wel and Lambert good in the air and unlucky with header that hit bar. But my man of the match was surprisingly Wayne Thomas who has been poor so far at centre half but was supurb at right back particularly we the way he dealt with crosses to the far post. In summary a better performance and I think we are slowly getting there, and many on here should remember Rome wasn't built in a day, we still have a lot of rebuilding work to do, but i'm confident we will get things right in the end, but too many seem to think this will happen overnight.

The Crown sounds like heaven to me, 16 beers a bit like the Grove at Huddersfield. I wonder if they have a barmaid as good as The Grove though ?

I've also seen this mentioned in last nights programme by Steve Grant not being very good, better to try local Robinson's pub eg The Armoury

First Jacob Mellis was chopped down in clear view of the ref in middle of the box as he was about to shoot, then a cross I think from Harding was handed around the penalty spot, something the linesman if not the referee should have seen.

Tickets now available £25, but only £5 for under 18's http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/page/TicketNews/0,,10280~1760996,00.html

Should thread title be edited as current allocation is either the 4th or 5th depending on reports on here Eg 1. 1235 in Arkell Stand 2. + 500 Stratton Bank 3. + 500 Stratton Bank 4. + 500 Stratton Bank 5. + 250 Stratton Bank (making allocation of either 2,700 or 2,935)

Other good things was the barmaid in the Grove, and the food and drink festival outside the train station where I got a brilliant Thai Curry for £2.90 for train home On the the playing side if we get a dominating centre back, we still need someone in midfield who can control the game and a good winger to create the chances for the likes of Lambert and Rasiak, but don't underestimate Huddersfield they will do well this season

Absolutely a bloke comes on here with some good information, and people just can't wait to knock him down when something doesn't go quite to plan on a follow up thread. It's like many of you are jealous of some people being fortunate enough to be in a postion where they can obtain info, but without people like Tic Tac this board would be a very boring place.

London Saints will be at Kings Arms (Pub on station) about 12.15, although going on to other pub after that

Further 500 tickets just been requested bring allocation up to 2700, should be at least 2500 up there now as nearly 2200 already sold

Its not great but a lot of people who live up north (as you can see mentioned on many threads on here) pay on the day, while others leave it late before purchasing tickets for a game like this, I'd expect 750 minimum to be up there in the end, although I would say we should be taking a minimum of 1000 to most away games. What also doesn't help is that we are palying Swindon on tuesday and we should take over 2000 there

according to Kelly in ticket office 533 tickets sold so far, tickets are available on the day but more expensive

two days at most

If you book on phone hey take card details and send them to you in the post

Bought an extra ticket this morning was told then they had onlty approx 120 tickets left of 1735 tickets they've recived so far. According to Kelly in the ticket office, dependant on demand tonight they may ask for a further allocation

you'll need to get tickets from the ticket office

Just phoned ticket office to get some extra Swindon tickets and it is pretty frantic down there at the moment loads more people now getting tickets for tommorow's game

according to Bristol local paper deal already done for £1m to be announced later today http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/bristolrovers/news/Bristol-Rovers-striker-Rickie-Lambert-seals-1m-Southampton/article-1237768-detail/article.html
