I'm looking forward to Millwall so I can watch a football match, and maybe clap occasionally. I'll ask Fozzie Bear what he thinks later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCholulaKid Posted 1 January, 2010 Share Posted 1 January, 2010 That's the doozey. Just one problem: they only open at 12. As does the Market Porter. Although their fine selection of ales are worth waiting for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Charming Man Posted 3 January, 2010 Share Posted 3 January, 2010 Good shout, there's nothing better than walking through Waterloo on a Saturday morning and seeing Saints fans everywhere! I don't understand people that travel up to one of the greatest cities in the world for a days drinking session and only leave Waterloo to attend the match. Very strange.

scott_saints Posted 3 January, 2010 Share Posted 3 January, 2010 FAO: The lads who were at the back of the Northam at the Luton game who are clearly overexcited about Millwall and singing "We're going to Millwall and we're gonna get knicked" aswell as releasing excited squeels every time the fixture showed up on the big screen. Stay at home, you are mongs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_Porter Posted 3 January, 2010 Share Posted 3 January, 2010 Went for a couple in HITW after the Orient game at about 9 and it was packed with Southampton, good times. Wouldn't want to spend the whole day in there before a game but it's ok for a couple and not too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saints_is_the_south Posted 4 January, 2010 Share Posted 4 January, 2010 HITW was indeed excellent after Leyton Orient, wouldn't spend all my time in London there though. I guess most will be drinking around London Bridge, any particular pub where Saints fans will be going? Theres a spoons on Tooley street & a few other pubs that might be worth a try. Can't remember the place we went in before Charlton last season, was pretty decent though & about 2 mins from the station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tickets went on sale just before Christmas. Today is only the 2nd day of "back to normal" - it's hardly surprising that we haven't shifted many.

JRM Posted 5 January, 2010 Share Posted 5 January, 2010 Been told by David Luker that only 424 sold for this so far, highly unlikely we'd be getting any more tickets. i've just been down the ticket office and bought 1250 tickets for me and my mates, so only a couple of hundred left now, anyone thinking of going should get in quick. This will be an interesting one though. Factors this has for it: One of the cheapest days out of the season, group save 4 for 2 available on the trains, could do Southampton Central to the ground in under 2 hours. Despite being Millwall you have the whole of central London to choose from for a drink up / day out. 6 pointer in the chase for the play offs. Potential for top atmosphere. we just need 60% of those who went to Orient to sell this out. If we dont sell 2000 then that is a lot of people prepared to go to North East London, but not South East!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, will be disappointing if we don't sell out 2000 for a London away game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedAndWhite91 Posted 5 January, 2010 Share Posted 5 January, 2010 I'm sure many, like me and my mates, simply just haven't got around to buying the tickets yet. There's still just under 2 weeks to get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRM Posted 5 January, 2010 Share Posted 5 January, 2010 Like the MK Dons game I see this as a shambles, why give non-season ticket holders under a week to buy tickets?

Also find it surprising that they're advertising the Milwall game as pay on the day, will that still be the case if we sell 2k (or close to it)?

rick1976.4.38 Posted 5 January, 2010 Share Posted 5 January, 2010 the tickets should be avaiable for more than two weeks,would expect us to take at least 1500 to this,more hopefuly,see you all there,coyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saints_is_the_south Posted 8 January, 2010 Share Posted 8 January, 2010 (edited) Tbf we do have 3 away games in less than 2 weeks. I doubt a lot of people can afford to do them all, I've chosen 2 out of the 3 to do (MK Dons & Millwall) as I'm in that boat. Hopefully sales will pick up when they go on general sale anyway.

Saint Samuel Posted 9 January, 2010 Share Posted 9 January, 2010 Looks like we'll be getting the 9am train up there, probably start off at The Hole in the Wall, who knows from then on.

Hole in the wall won't be open at 10.20, you'll have to go to the other pub in waterloo (Wellesley?) for a quick one or get some breakfast somewhere. I think i'll be doing the same, maybe the 9.30 train, not got tickets yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torres Posted 9 January, 2010 Share Posted 9 January, 2010 For any real ale fans: try The Rake at Borough Mkt (past the Market Porter up to Vinopolis, turn right). It's a small place, quite odd, but normally has a cracking selection of beers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StDunko Posted 10 January, 2010 Share Posted 10 January, 2010 What the chances of this game being played? Does anyone know what the snow is like in East London?

I don't want to spend money on tickets, because if it is posponed I can't make it to London for a midweek rearrangement. Meant to be OK at the moment, obviously still a week to go. I'm pretty sure you can get a refund no problem if the game gets postponed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StDunko Posted 10 January, 2010 Share Posted 10 January, 2010 I've always thought that a ticket for a football match is valid for that fixture, regardless of when it is played. Therefore if you buy a ticket and the game is postponed, you don't get a refund instead your ticket is valid for the rearranged date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
