Arizona Posted 25 March, 2010 Author Posted 25 March, 2010 What time are people getting to the Stadium? I'm there now. Atmosphere a bit quiet so far.
Pancake Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 I'm there now. Atmosphere a bit quiet so far. Start a chant then FFS.
Pancake Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 No, I lmao'd. What seat was that in, what to try and avoid the mess.
dune Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 just seen the weather forecast = heavy rain for sunday.
bender Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 It looks like its gonna hammer it down on Sunday. The new Wembley has a roof doesnt it??
doggface Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Will be getting soggy in row 6 I would have thought. Doh
Appy Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Will be getting soggy in row 6 I would have thought. Doh It does not. Remember Mcclaren and the brolly.
krissyboy31 Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Will be getting soggy in row 6 I would have thought. Doh Bring back Cardiff and it's roof!!!
Saint_John Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 If anyone is like me and likes to buy a Program before the day and keep it at home so that it doesn't get beer stains on it. The MegaStore have got a few in today (10 boxes x 50 ?) at £5. I noticed that carlisle have been to the final of the JPT 4 times :- 2005/6 v Swansea LOST 2-1 2002/3 v Bristol City LOST 2-0 1996/7 v Colchester DREW 0-0 (won on pens 4-3) 1994/5 v Brum LOST 1-0 aet The ref (Scott Mathieson) is from "up north" and a quick google says he has NOT reffed either team this year. http://www.soccerbase.com/refs2.sd?refid=161&seasonid=139 He did 2 of our games last season - (1) Cardiff away (1-2) where "killer" claimed he was pushed for their last min winner but imo Johnson just jumped early into the space stopped MS getting off the ground. (2) The other game was a 0-0 draw at Charlton.
doggface Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Bring back Cardiff and it's roof!!! & bring back an fa cup final!

(2) The other game was a 0-0 draw at Charlton. They took a throw-in. The guy receiving the ball decided he wanted to take it so caught it and then retook it. The ref allowed it. They scored. It rained that day too.
BARCELONASAINT Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 my Cup Final programme has just arrived and i'm now well and truley in the mood.....pity it looks like heavy rain on Sunday....i might just be pleased to be in the God seats as the new Wembley has no closing roof!!!! At least i'll be dry where i'm sat
Master Bates Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Good omen? In February 1976 my dad met my mum and we won the Cup Final. 2010 they've departed, another Cup Final win?
Pancake Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Im gonna get wet in row 7... **** that though, the Saints will be playing AT WEM-BER-LY!

Glasgow_Saint Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Southampton could hand 16-year-old midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain a shock call-up for Sunday's Johnstone's Paint Trophy final with Carlisle. (Daily Star)
Thedelldays Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 imagine losing to that lot on national TV, at the new Wembley with 45,000 saints fans at the game.. yikes..!!!!!
Glasgow_Saint Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 imagine losing to that lot on national TV, at the new Wembley with 45,000 saints fans at the game.. yikes..!!!!! DONT! The humiliation!! R U going?
Matthew Le God Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Southampton could hand 16-year-old midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain a shock call-up for Sunday's Johnstone's Paint Trophy final with Carlisle. (Daily Star) As a sub maybe, I doubt he'd be in the starting 11 ahead of Waigo or Connolly.
beatlesaint Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 It looks like its gonna hammer it down on Sunday. The new Wembley has a roof doesnt it?? Dont worry the forecast will change at least twice more before we get to Sunday. The BBC one for Central London has changed twice today already !! Just keep your fingers crossed for a dry day....and a win !
stanstubbs Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 the ref is going to be Scott Mathieson don't think we have had him this season can anyone remember
brett24 Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Never seen Alex Oxlade Chamberlain play, is he any good? Has he got good pace?
L1Minus10 Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Preview and rambling here http://leagueoneminus10.blogspot.com/
Griffo Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 I know the bottom tier is basically season ticket holders, but because it's Wembley and there will be a great deal of part timers, is it really that likely that we will be standing behind the goal? Especially in row 5. I will be severely ****ed off if I have to sit.
broncoboy Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Its a cup final so anything can happen You just have to go and do your best thats all you can do as my mother used to say They are a good team which in some ways I think is a good thing as hopefully that will bring the best football out in us. I told my son after Cardiff there would be another cup final in his lifetime. I am sure AP knows how to prepare his side for this match Win hopefully but whatever we are all Saints so lets enjoy the day COYR
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 So AP is considering playing someone who hasn't played much since he arrived, in the event of our injuries not clearing up? Didn't Pulis score for the ressies recently? Surely not...

martel Posted 25 March, 2010 Posted 25 March, 2010 Can't wait for it! I agree, however, I cannot find any where over here showing the game, I just went into one of my locals and they are not getting the game. Is their going to be a live stream going out via Justintv or any other internet tv come to that, if anyone has a heads up on that I would appreciate it.

Sky Sports have it and, according to the JPT website, "The Final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy takes place on Sunday 28th March. You can experience the match here live online on the day of the game." Not sure if that's video live or text live or what tho! http://www.johnstonespainttrophy.com/match-centre/2009-2010/
Arizona Posted 25 March, 2010 Author Posted 25 March, 2010 the ref is going to be Scott Mathieson don't think we have had him this season can anyone remember Isn't he the kid on South Park with a lisp and diabetes?
scaramanga Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Kelvin to lift the trophy if we win. not Dean Hammond.
saintsub Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Never seen Alex Oxlade Chamberlain play, is he any good? Has he got good pace? He is skillfull and very quick. Loads of potential and definetely one for the future. May not make the starting 11 but I hope he gets on at some point.
wessex saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Forecast changed from heavy rain to light rain for Sunday. Hopefully by Saturday night will have changed to dry and sunny what with being in row 7.
krissyboy31 Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Don't know whether it's been posted but there is an Echo JPT Final web-chat with Adam Leitch at 12.30 today.
BadgerBadger Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 just seen the weather forecast = heavy rain for sunday. wonder how the newly laid pitch will stand up to rain and men running around kicking a ball
supersonic Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Forecast changed from heavy rain to light rain for Sunday. Hopefully by Saturday night will have changed to dry and sunny what with being in row 7. I swear I read somewhere that Wembley has been built and designed so that wherever you sit you are under a roof. but then again if there's a swirling wind...
Pip Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 I looked on Wembley website last night and the roof extends to the touchlines. If there is heavy rain some people may get wet but hopefully not many - and not me!
wessex saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 I swear I read somewhere that Wembley has been built and designed so that wherever you sit you are under a roof. but then again if there's a swirling wind... I heard the same, but as you say a little bit of wind and the rain will soon be sideways..... still, won't dampen my spirits. COYR!!

Hopefully by Saturday night will have changed to dry and sunny what with being in row 7. http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/8?&showDay=C That's better. I can cope with light rain, but heavy rain was giving me nightmares about what clothes to take.
bender Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 They said today was going to be rain but it seems fine outside

bender Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Silly question but why werent we involved in the 1st round http://www.johnstonespainttrophy.com/match-centre/2009-2010/first-round/
Matthew Le God Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Silly question but why werent we involved in the 1st round http://www.johnstonespainttrophy.com/match-centre/2009-2010/first-round/ Because Saints had a bye. You can't have a cup competition with 48 teams (24 League One and 24 League Two) and not have teams getting byes. 48 teams - 24 teams - 12 teams - 6 teams - 3 teams in the final just doesn't work!
Bakovnetski Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 I heard the same, but as you say a little bit of wind and the rain will soon be sideways..... still, won't dampen my spirits. COYR!! A bit like at MK last week then... I dont mind getting a bit wet if we get the same result. Rickie for a hat-trick. What are the odds?
