hamster Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Bugger it. Just agreed to spend Sunday with the father in law, it's his 70th or something. Maybe I could get so mullered on Saturday night that I have to stay in bed until half an hour before kick off. If they do a commemorative program could someone please get menhalfna dozen please? They're not for me btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milan boy Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Bet the players are p*ssed off. They were prob looking forward to going out on the smash Sat night. They did it last night in 90 degrees...one player alledgedly so ****ed he fell over and cut his arm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubai_phil Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Oh FFS. I waited and waited for the big news... Booked my flight to return to Dubai on Sunday at 17:00 from Heathrow. Went out for a pint and find out that if I'd waited OR they'd leaked it a bit earlier I could have gone. harumpf. never mind suppose I'll just make up for it on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethallee Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Not exactly an all star team being lined up based on the names confirmed so far. I don't quite see the appeal myself. I will be there Saturday instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sour Mash Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Decent gesture from the club, just don't know if it'll be a bit of a damp squib after Saturday. Anyone know if Duncan Spedding or Frankie Bennet will be getting a run out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dune Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 I would imagine it'll just be the Itchen centre that's opening. There will be lots of baloons and a clown making them into poodles and halos to be worn on the head. Free face painting. Goody bags. Screaming kids (as already mentioned) And several spaced out fans thinking what the f/ck am I doing here. I may well be one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not doubt that with my hangover the screaming kids will do my head in, but to see the man (WGS) who, apart from the Alan Ball era, gave me some the best times watching Saints, it'll just be a nice bit of fun to round off a successful season.

B Rabbit Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Why are they making i difficult to get tickets (no phone or interwebz)....surely allowing people to go on the day, old school turnstile fashion, will mean a decent crowd.... be surprised if there's 10,000 given that most people will be celebrating the day before and not too bothered about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it would just be a simple "2 tickets please", "here you go" at the ticket office on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 3 May, 2011 Share Posted 3 May, 2011 Great gesture by the club and a link with happier past times, sort of a uniting the club and burying the hatchet approach. Nice one Nicola. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STEVEADAMS Posted 4 May, 2011 Share Posted 4 May, 2011 Great gesture from the club wish I could be there. MLT has to be there, you couldn't do a day like this and not have him there. He is a legend of this club. Just wish all whoever they may be, would get over this petty squabbling if this is in fact the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
