Evil Monkey Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 Anyone know how much a group ticket will be from Soton Central to Waterloo? I seem to remember paying about £17.50 each.
ericofarabia Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 It's Mojito's all the way from Christchurch At least your breath will smell nice with all that mint
Um Bongo Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 Got another 600! Looks like we'll take 3,100 up there. http://www.megatrain.com/uk/ is the link for whoever wanted it.
Alanh Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 If they don't give us more then aim for the home End East stand which is the same stand as the saints fans (but home section) if you look on their website. If that is also unreserved seating then just keep buying tickets in their bit (East stand) and create an unofficial extension of the away end. Just got a couple of tickets from the latest batch of 600 that were released this afternoon so will be able to keep with the Saints fans. Seems like we are going to have a big crew there.
stkev7 Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 I feel like a ticket tout, just got another one to add to the six I had already bought. It's going to be an immense day.
Genk Posted 19 October, 2009 Posted 19 October, 2009 Yea was bout to say check out http://www.megabus.com Great deals
Saint Samuel Posted 20 October, 2009 Posted 20 October, 2009 I seem to remember paying about £17.50 each. Thats a decent price, cheers.
saints_is_the_south Posted 20 October, 2009 Posted 20 October, 2009 Will be getting 4 for 2 on the day including London travel cards works out at £17.20 each.
marc_saint Posted 20 October, 2009 Posted 20 October, 2009 You could get the greyhound bus from Southampton from about £13 return for the times needed. http://www.greyhounduk.com/
londonsaint1604 Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 Anyone got 2 spare tickets? Got paid today and now its sold out!
oldsarum Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 Anyone got 2 spare tickets? Got paid today and now its sold out! Why not try Orient, with your user name address I assume you live in London so you shouldn't have too many problems, just ask for tickets in East Stand which is where all the Saints fans are.
dune Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 Now for the important stuff - the pubs... The Birkbeck Tavern http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/34/3403/Birkbeck_Tavern/Leyton The Coach and Horses http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/38/386/Coach_and_Horses/Leyton Both seem to allow away fans. Any more suggestions?
ladysaint Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 They would have to be big pubs to accommodate the numbers of travelling fans for this one. Remember Dellhurst park pubs, I was actually standing on a table to drink that day, the pub was packed to the rafters and you couldnt really move.
Dan Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 I imagne there will be quite a few going up there and sitting in the home end.

Any more suggestions? Any one into real ale could try William IV, 816 High Road, Leyton it's a bit further but is a brew pub and is home of the Brodie's brewery that opened in September 2008 - highly recommended (by me) :drinkers:
mikesfc7 Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 anyone got a spare ticket? by the time i finished work today the extra 600 sold out! i live in thornhill and can come and collect from whoever has a spare.
saints_is_the_south Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 According to Saints officiall twitter a FINAL, FINAL 150 will be on sale from next Tuesday!
Hemel Saint Posted 21 October, 2009 Posted 21 October, 2009 See what some O's fans think of us.... did not imagine we would be called "BBB's". Mind you if we sing that crappy song about "having a shed thats bigger than this", then I can understand them thinking we are BBB!!! And they reckon we are excited about taking over 3,000 fans away. errr... perhaps they should have a look at our away support this season !!! to be fair... there was a nice comment from someone who said that we may be pleased that we just survived from the jaws of extinction, and enjoying the fact we have a team to follow... in numbers... http://www.leytonorient2.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=222020 .
shaun_inuk Posted 22 October, 2009 Posted 22 October, 2009 Anyone else going up on Greyhound? my mates who live in london always come to home matches on them so thought i`d give it a go, 2 hours, free paper and no stops, unlike the travel club, all for £8. Being a saints fan gets better and better.
This Charming Man Posted 23 October, 2009 Posted 23 October, 2009 This quote made me laugh; To be fair, though, they also seem to be excited at the prospect of getting a 3,000 gate for their JPT match. They're just easily pleased, I reckon. Clueless idiot. We had more at Torquay then they have had in their last few home games combined.
MrWoody83 Posted 24 October, 2009 Posted 24 October, 2009 I know there are the final 150 tickets on tuesday, but how much are they guys?. My cousin is over from Ireland (he is massive saints fan) and hopefully gonna do this game if we can get tickets.

Saint Samuel Posted 26 October, 2009 Posted 26 October, 2009 Will be getting 4 for 2 on the day including London travel cards works out at £17.20 each. Thats a good deal, we'll probably be doing the same, either getting the 9am or 10am train from Southampton Central. I expect to see a lot of Saints fans on the way up, should be good.
saint_bert Posted 26 October, 2009 Posted 26 October, 2009 So excited about Saturday guys! anyone else getting the 8am train
marc_saint Posted 26 October, 2009 Posted 26 October, 2009 8.45 from Swindon getting into Paddington at 10. Can't wait! :-D
Saint_clark Posted 27 October, 2009 Author Posted 27 October, 2009 9.10 train from Weymouth, should be an awesome day.
saints_is_the_south Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 So excited about Saturday guys! anyone else getting the 8am train +1, can't wait!
Saint Samuel Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 We're getting the 9am train, will probably go to the Coach and Horses near the ground and watch Arsenal/Spurs there.
West End Saint Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 Get in I am going now my Dad went and queued up for me at 6.30 6th in line & got my ticket bless him I am really looking forward to this 1 gonna be a good day out hope we can continue the run could be out of relegation places if we win COYR.
Fergie Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 Could be out of relegation...you mean will be!!? there is no way we win 4 on the trot in the league and then play orient and lose! they are an awful team and we are not even a league 1 team, bottom half of championship at least with the way were playing right now! Cannot wait for the day though, only 4 days to go and i've already finished all my uni work for the week...massive bonus!! Think i'll spend my time preparing my liver for saturday now. anyone know if there are toilets on the travel coaches!?? dont wanna get caught short on the way back!!

Nadia Sllim Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 West Ham and Chelsea away from home, Millwall at home and Spurs and Arsenal playing each other, we better not go giving it the "Bertie Big ********" too much! Yoof beware!

Yoof beware! I was talking to mate who supports QPR, but is a Londoner and as such knows where is safe and where is dodgy. Apparently Leyton is a place where one of the first waves of immigrants settled in the 50's and it's a rough area. We'll be travelling in numbers so it should be OK, but it'd be wise to be careful especially as the clocks changing means it'll be dark after the match.
Smirking_Saint Posted 27 October, 2009 Posted 27 October, 2009 Anyone know how many away supporters we have got going ??

I like your optimism but I have been supporting Saints way to long to take anything for granted. As long as we play rhe way we have with the commitment & dertimination I feel we will win. I really hope we get the kind of performance & result that 3000 + traveling Saints deserve COYS lets have it

Leyton isnt any more dodgy ro rough than most parts of the East London/Essex border! If you are that worried about the "immigrants", than stay at home.

My mum doesn't let me out when it's dark
Andy_Porter Posted 28 October, 2009 Posted 28 October, 2009 (edited) Eh? He's just saying people need to be carefull out in the dark after the game, people jumped on his back because he stupidly mentioned immigrants. If he had just said it was full of chavs or something similar no one would have cared, some people just feel the need to be politically correct. Edited 28 October, 2009 by Andy_Porter

I fear you wont know what day of the week it is by FT, let alone whether or not its dark. Dont worry, I'll see you get on the right train.

If he had just said it was full of chavs or something similar no one would have cared, some people just feel the need to be politically correct. Its got nothing to nothing to do with being PC! he stated that Leyton is a rough and dodgy area - it isnt, simple as that. It is no more rough and dodgy that most boroughs in London, no need to extra vigilant. No one is going to jump you for no reason just because some poeple settled there 50 years ago. Its only sensible to be careful when walking about in dark, unlit streets on a place you dont know; but there is no need to extra careful when in Leyton as it just doesnt have that kind of reputation. Bermondsey maybe, possible some areas near Barking and Canning Town, but not Waltham Forest. I would be willing to bet that there are some areas of Southampton that are a lot worse that Leyton after dark. Just reeks of some provincial mummies boy that is worried about going to the Big Smoke and the East End!
RedAndWhite91 Posted 28 October, 2009 Posted 28 October, 2009 Leyton isnt any more dodgy ro rough than most parts of the East London/Essex border! If you are that worried about the "immigrants", than stay at home. And to be fair, in a 2008 home office study it was found that Southampton is the 3rd most violent city in England (going by violent crime statistics), below Sheffield and Manchester.

Mate, I'm certainly not PC and couldn't give a stuff about whether or not he mentioned "immigrants", but the post is funny, where exactly does he think he is going? IT's an afternoon of football at Leyton Orient FFS!
