for_heaven's_Saint Posted 15 October, 2010 Share Posted 15 October, 2010 I have a spare train seat with London Saints-leaving Kings X at 9.15am and arriving Hudders at 12.05pm £28. I also have spare match ticket-though this will need to be traded up to an adult on account of my 15year old injuring himself playing footie and can't make tomorrow. Any takers-text me-Simon 07738587924 May well have been your ticket I claimed?! Cheers if so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appy Posted 15 October, 2010 Share Posted 15 October, 2010 How come with such excellent home crowds you only expect this kind of away following? Is it lack of belief at this stage of the season after a worrying start? Obviously it's a fair distance to travel for a League One game but surly after a five game unbeaten run confidence that this is a promotion year must be flooding back. Basically, I would have expected a club the size of Southampton to have brought well over 2000 to a game of this magnitude. Added to which, I can gather you have fans all over the country including plenty up t'north. Perhaps they'll all come and pay-on-the-day! That said, I genuinely hope the '****heads' that have been talked about on here stay at home because while our fans don't normally cause trouble, if trouble starts they're as bad as anyone else. No one would want any immature silliness to spoil what should be a great day out for the majority of fans. Lets all hope it passes off peacefully and we all have a good time watching our beloved teams. Score? Well it's another head and heart situation for me because I'm totally confused! My head says, a close game that could go 1-0 to either team or maybe a draw. My heart says the Terriers turn on the kind of form we've only really seen glimpses of this season and win with a three goal margin. I believe we really are capable of that but as with last season we're still something of Jekyll & Hyde side. So who knows? Because its a very long way, we went there last season. It is one of those typical new grounds like St Marys, that are fairly boring. The tickets aren't cheap, it is league one, we have 2 other long away trips to Notts County and Carlisle coming up. Over 800 is a decent turn out in league one, see you there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we really are capable of that but as with last season we're still something of Jekyll & Hyde side. So who knows? I agree with you about it being a pretty poor away showing for such an important match. As a % of our home crowds it doesn't compare well to most teams who visit SMS, but there again their trip to us is their cup final for the season!! Lets face it in 2 visits Bomo have maged about 150% of their home support LOL LOL Last season we managed nearly 2500 to Leeds on the last saturday before Xmas, we were on a bit of a run and they were seen as one of our main rivals if we were to get promotion. Much could be said of this fixture tomorrow, no doubt a fair few pay on the dayers will turn up and could tip it up to about 1200. Still not brilliant though. Even with Notts County and Carlisle coming up it won't be a cheap time, but I wouldn't mind betting most of those hardy soles who make the trip up to Carlisle will also be doing the other two as well. Hats off to those making any of the trips .... quality over quantity wins every time. Hope you get the performances and reults you deserve.

SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 15 October, 2010 Share Posted 15 October, 2010 I'm getting a lift to Huddersfield from someone who is going on to Old Trafford, so I have been working out where I can be dropped that is not too far from the motorway. In the process I have come across the Woodman Inn. I am thinking it might be the ideal place for him to drop me as there is a bus stop outside from where I can get a bus to almost right outside the ground. Does anyone know anything about that place? Is anyone going there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
