Panda Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Friendlies never get big turn outs. P****Y had over £19k for their's against Chelsea!!!!!!!
Matthew Le God Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Any idea how strong the Bremen team is? http://www.werder.de/liveticker/index.php
SaintNeil90 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 This makes an interesting read... http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://forum.werder.de/&ei=HeoqTsGNCoamhAeD58GqCw&sa=X&oi=translate&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCgQ7gEwAA&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dwerder%2Bbremen%2Bforum%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dsafari%26rls%3Den%26prmd%3Divns No sense is what it makes!
SaintNeil90 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 P****Y had over £19k for their's against Chelsea!!!!!!! Thats because half of Portsmouth are glory hunters and went to the game in Chelsea shirts. I don't think you get many Bremen or Bilbao fans in Southampton
Colinjb Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 P****Y had over £19k for their's against Chelsea!!!!!!! Even Coventry City managed a full house v Chelsea. Don't sweat it.
Panda Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 But he said "Friendlies never get big turn outs" and I was just pointing out that that is not true, sometimes they do!
skintsaint Posted 23 July, 2011 Author Posted 23 July, 2011 GOAL!!! Adam Lallana makes it three, tapping in from 6 yards having been set up by Connolly. Saints 3-0 Werder Bremen
Colinjb Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 3-0, Lallana goal - not too bad! Outstanding! Sounds like we are giving the few who turned out quite a show!!! 3 points secured.
SaintNeil90 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 But he said "Friendlies never get big turn outs" and I was just pointing out that that is not true, sometimes they do! In general they dont! I dont think Saints ever get high attendances for friendlies
sussexsaint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Seasons not started and we are on our way to a trophy already. That'll be 3 in. 3 seasons then. Any idea why no Davis or lambert ????
Hamilton Saint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 "Full Time: Saints 3-0 Werder Bremen. Great start to the Memorial Cup. Werder Vs Athletic Bilbao up next".
saints_is_the_south Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 I seem to recall there being about 20k for the Ajax friendly 2 years a go, was just off the back of Markus buying us though. Friendlies just don't interest me at all, would rather save the cash and use it on an away game during the season.
JRM Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Apparently on 6-7k there, disappointing for such big opponents but not surprising with costs involved. Saints should definitely have given a free ticket with each season ticket to get people down there buying them, instead you got a £1 parking charge with each season ticket instead.
doggface Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Very disappointing turn out. I would love to be there, don't see the issue?? 3 great clubs to watch. Great 1st result!!!

Jesus stop moaning!!! Deal with it, its not going to change.
CanadaSaint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Didn't see it, obviously, but if only we could keep Connolly fit!
saintscottofthenortham Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 I didn't go in the end. Out of my mates, only 1 would have been able to make it. It does seem like this is a very bilusy weekend for everyone so not really surprised by low turnout.
Reib80 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 How many away fans are there roughly? I can't imagine many making the trip?
BARCELONASAINT Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 A really enjoyable first game, pick of the goals was Connollys, excellent build up and perfect finish. Lalana is class, oxo was just too much for weirder and Guly really is a class player. All in all cracking first game!
Ashley Grute Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 We played some lovely football at times and Bart looked really good- not allowed out of the enclosed area- if you leave you are not allowed back in!
SaintNeil90 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 We played some lovely football at times and Bart looked really good- not allowed out of the enclosed area- if you leave you are not allowed back in! sorry?
Sour Mash Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Jesus stop moaning!!! Deal with it, its not going to change. Its not about moaning, its about fans only having so much money to spend and in the end frendlies like this will suffer in terms of attendance - a shame for all concerned!
lewpylew Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 They had sold 6,000 tickets approx before today and there was some queues at the ticket office. Slightly disappointing but still a great atmosphere : )
Hamilton Saint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 sorry? Run-on sentence. The end part doesn't refer to Bart.
bigchrisy Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 There were Bilbao fans in town before the game. Would say at least 20-25
chocco boxo Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 10,000 vrs West Brom will be good, take 1400 to Yeovil and 29,400 against Leeds!
sfc4prem Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Only reason we sold so little is the prices. I bet Pompey got in at £5 an Adult or something like that, whereas we're getting charged £16. I would've loved to have gone to see us play against two top class European teams, but sadly payday is next week.
Cumbria Saint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Any idea why no Davis or lambert ???? Interview with Adkins says that Davis will play in second game and Lambert has a VERY slight twinge in his back and not to be risked.
Littlelat17 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 According to Nigel, Davis is playing in the second game and is captain.. Lambert 'is in the best shape he's ever been' but has a slight twinge in his back and Nigel wont take any risk for a friendly.
funkymojo44 Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Match report on werder site said werder looked very tired, and never in the game
ericofarabia Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Lambo has a slight twinge so wasn't risked - but dont worry he's fitter than he's ever been. Kelv is playing and is capy for 2nd game!! Re AOC the good old we can only control the controlables. Nige sounded very pleased about pre season build up.
sussexsaint Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Interview with Adkins says that Davis will play in second game and Lambert has a VERY slight twinge in his back and not to be risked. Very decent of him to reply to my forum post in an interview I have to say. Thanks for the update. Sad how much I've missed match threads
Ashley Grute Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Sorry- on my phone. We are not allowed out of the enclosed area, not Bart!
Sour Mash Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 Match report on werder site said werder looked very tired, and never in the game With werder so close to the start of their season, I'm surprised they've agreed to trek over here and p**s about in such a tournament, can't see why it'd be massively appealing for them.
pilsburydoughboy Posted 23 July, 2011 Posted 23 July, 2011 There were Bilbao fans in town before the game. Would say at least 20-25 Did they walk about unopposed and start taking liberties

Re AOC the good old we can only control the controlables. Nige sounded very pleased about pre season build up. Has Nige ever been downbeat about anything though? So Nigel, your wife's just left you for your best mate - how do you feel? Delighted for the wife obviously. It's a step up for her and I've always said if a better offer came in I wouldn't stand in her way. Listen though, mate's been brilliant ever since he came in the building. Before getting married I always said I wanted another person on the bus. Obviously it's not the extra person I had in mind but that's the beauty of marriage. It's brilliant innit?
