Tractor_Saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Other half has just got in with two flags for the car and also the Official programme. A very nice and weighty programme with some good articles in it. Well well worth the £5!
Um Bongo Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Any ideas where I can get a flag from? Are the club shop selling any?

SNSUN 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/ Easy ride to the final then. It'll seem like such a hollow victory if, or rather when, we win.
Appy Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Getting fairly nervous now. The onus is on us. I just hope the pressure doesn't get to us. Come on Saints!
Hopkins Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Morgan plays = We win Morgan out = We struggle IMO. He's not only that good as a player but the way he plays is so simple it will calm us down if we do start letting the pressure get to us. As long as he's in there bringing the ball down, taking a touch and passing simply we won't end up chasing the ball and getting all nervous. We'll dictate. No offence to Wotton (He has some uses imo) but if he plays instead we'll just start hoofing and running after everything.
philelec Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Good luck to the lads, bring home the trophy. I am from acroos the pond and will be on a plane to Las Vegas when the match is on, but I will most certainly will be thinking of you all. Can't wait to check the computer in the hotel business centre when I get there! COYR!
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 I'm in bed ill two days before the final. Bad bad times.
Tractor_Saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Really excited now... Just taken a photo of the Official Programme cover
dune Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Reckon i'll get a programme mailed to me after the game. Sod carrying it around.
Tractor_Saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Reckon i'll get a programme mailed to me after the game. Sod carrying it around. It is a bit 'book-like' to be fair so I'm glad I got mine before the game so I'm not lugging it around the pubs after!
krissyboy31 Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Really excited now... Just taken a photo of the Official Programme cover No point in going now. They've already printed the score on it. 2-1 Carlisle!

Ziggy Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 The weekend starts now! Bring on Sunday. A night on the **** on Sat night then a very early start on Sun made even earlier by the bloody clocks moving forward.
saint_stevo Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 man flu taken a turn for the better today. Thank ****.
keithd Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Rickie for a hat-trick. What are the odds? 18-1 !! Saints to win 3-0 can get 12's with Paddy Power 14's with Skybet in other words i'd maybe go for something more fruitful, carlisle half time saints full time @ 22-1 maybe (Southampton half time Carlise full time is 45-1!! tenner on that could make up for the disappointment..)
Morph Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Wembley was basking in sunshine today. Here are a couple of photos. http://i1043.photobucket.com/albums/b436/morph_488/Image009.jpg and http://i1043.photobucket.com/albums/b436/morph_488/Image007.jpg Getting ready for a great weekend Morph
Saint Fan CaM Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 It will be a great day out, but of course much, much sweeter if we win. Carlisle will be no push-over by a long stretch and it will need our boys to bully and harass them pretty much all game to come away with a result. If they think they will stroll it, we will lose f'sure. Onwards and upwards - watch out for me...I'm the one with the red and white striped shirt on! LOL
Evil Monkey Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Yeah, already got some of them (Not for my car) Just wanted a big one, if i'm going to look ghey with one, I want it to be full size! If you live in Southampton, there were loads of flags being sold in above bar today. 4/5 blokes with trollies full of them.

Saint_clark Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Ain't those falling blue blobby things wet then? They changed it again
brmbrm Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 They changed it again Don't worry - it'll change lots of times until Sunday
VectisSaint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 48 teams - 24 teams - 12 teams - 6 teams - 3 teams in the final just doesn't work! The 3rd team could have had the other 20000+ tickets though
InvictaSaint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 On a different note, does anybody have experience of taking a camera / camcorder into Wembley? I would like to take some pics inside and outside the ground, but what is likely to happen when we go into the stadium? Will they be confiscated?

I would like to take some pics inside and outside the ground, but what is likely to happen when we go into the stadium? Will they be confiscated? I'm taking my all singing all dancing new mobile which takes 8 mega pixie images and videos.

I would like to take some pics inside and outside the ground, but what is likely to happen when we go into the stadium? Will they be confiscated? I'm sure it's fine taking a camera/camcorder in. I took photos on my digital camera when we saw England play a year or so ago.
SNSUN Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 No point in going now. They've already printed the score on it. 2-1 Carlisle! That's what I thought! It took me ages to work out what it actually meant! Oh, I reckon it'll be 3-1 Saints.

COYFS!
Saint_clark Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 How is everyone counting down the time? I'm doing it in work shifts. Just one more for me.
SpookyDookySaints Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Postal deliveries..........no tickets yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Saint_lambden Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 A quick question: If the game finishes as a draw after 90 minutes will extra time be played or will the cup be decided on penalties straight away like previous rounds?
krissyboy31 Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 A quick question: If the game finishes as a draw after 90 minutes will extra time be played or will the cup be decided on penalties straight away like previous rounds? Extra-time, then penalties.
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 As usual everyone seems to be taking the other team for granted? Ian Harte at left is their top scorer but slow at defending. Pity if Antonio is injured but maybe waigo can exploit Harte's lack of pace? hope we dont concede any freekicks outside box.
Saint_clark Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 Postal deliveries..........no tickets yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously? The club said if you didn't have them by Wednesday you should get in contact with them.
corsacar saint Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 The atsmosphere should be electric, lets hope the team play to their full potential. If they do it should be a great day.
Hopkins Posted 26 March, 2010 Posted 26 March, 2010 As usual everyone seems to be taking the other team for granted? Ian Harte at left is their top scorer but slow at defending. Pity if Antonio is injured but maybe waigo can exploit Harte's lack of pace? hope we dont concede any freekicks outside box. He plays centre back for them.
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 I'm currently taking all medicine/vitamins i can get my hand on in an attempt to make myself better by tomorrow! Worst time to be ill ever.
itchen Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 I'm currently taking all medicine/vitamins i can get my hand on in an attempt to make myself better by tomorrow! Worst time to be ill ever. I was ill earlier this week but thanks to the work of Alexander Fleming I have now recovered. The antibiotics do mean I can't drink but at least I'm still going to Wemb-er-ley. Hope you recover too.
AndyNorthernSaints Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 He plays centre back for them. Exploit his lack in height then.
wessex saint Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 Weather update - dry with sunny intervals (met office) Happy days - I can wear my specially commissioned JPT red and white codpiece after all!
martel Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 No point in going now. They've already printed the score on it. 2-1 Carlisle! I was looking at that and could not make out if the 1 was actually a 7, therefore I am going to take the 7.
WokingSaint Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 I was ill for the ZDS Final (serious ill, major op drama). Didn't know the score until monday. I've got my flag out that my son brought to the hospital for me. Will take it tomorrow (but keep it in my pocket cos it's blue!)
S-Clarke Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 there's a real buzz around soton today, if you get the chance to go out and about. lots of cars with the flags, flags/scarves hanging out of windows and everyone you speak to seems to be going...! After all the years we've had, what a great change it makes to see the atmosphere that's being built up. i honestly cannot wait... and also everyone you seem to speak to is getting the damn 6:55am train. that will be a bit of a squash.
Tac-tics Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 Any idea on whos in and out? Lallana is back. Morgan? Also heard outside chance Thomas could be ready.
Appy Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 Any idea on whos in and out? Lallana is back. Morgan? Also heard outside chance Thomas could be ready. There are a few doubts. Decisions will be made on them today apparently.
Sidney Fudpucker the 3rd Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 I was looking at that and could not make out if the 1 was actually a 7, therefore I am going to take the 7.[/quote 11/1 on a 2-1 win to Carlisle. I'll have £10 on that. That will cover the cost of the ticket and travelling expenses for the day. If we win I won't care about losing £10. If we lose... Well, at least I've had a free day out at Wembley.
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 27 March, 2010 Posted 27 March, 2010 No point in going now. They've already printed the score on it. 2-1 Carlisle! Not a good omen eh?
