shurlock Posted 27 April, 2012 Posted 27 April, 2012 FI hope the 28% of echo readers who agreed with steptoe and son are taking an equally principled stance.
LGTL Posted 27 April, 2012 Posted 27 April, 2012 I hope not. Should be banned for life for being so pathetic.
John Boy Saint Posted 27 April, 2012 Posted 27 April, 2012 If they weren't so lazy they could have parked in Brittania Road and walked to the ticket office it's only a couple of minutes if you have two fully functioning legs, if that. Who cares, their loss.

Crazy Diamond Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I imagine they've probably left the country, what with this 'tax' thing that people are being asked to pay.
Stud mark of doom Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I bet they post on here. One of them looks a bit Turkish to me.
Chez Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I can understand the old fellas frustration. Shame to lose a long term supporter because of a ridiculous charging system.
manji Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 What are they worried about they got thier picture in The Echo ?
doddisalegend Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 (edited) LOL of all the seasons to hand back you ST. Plenty of seasons over the years where you probably wouldn't have missed much but I doubt we will see a season this good again for many (many) years .... Edited 28 April, 2012 by doddisalegend
hamster Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I know mr crump and to update you all, due to the cost of a loaf of Hovis breaking the £1.23 threshold he is on hunger strike. His son (dave) has opted not to join in with this particular protest.
Window Cleaner Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Pair of fannies Bet they went back afterwards and got their STs anyway.
Smirking_Saint Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 Bet they went back afterwards and got their STs anyway. Cant see them being sat at home lol
scotty Posted 28 April, 2012 Posted 28 April, 2012 I bet they post on here. what, and pay a fiver????
Saint Charlie Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Pretty sure I saw Stephen Crump (father) at QPR last Sat in the School End Upper. No sign of Kirk (Son) though. Anyone know if they go to SMS much anymore?

Anyone know if they go to SMS much anymore? Kirk!! For serious!! Isn't Kirk the name of the character (in Corrie) that he looks like?
tajjuk Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Seriously he wouldn't pay £1? Is it really any wonder that Cortese doesn't talk to the Echo when they print this sort of 'News'.
The Kraken Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Seriously he wouldn't pay £1? Is it really any wonder that Cortese doesn't talk to the Echo when they print this sort of 'News'. Yes. Is it a wonder.

Mr X Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Can't believe how cynical our fans have got yes it's the echo and a bit of a non story but the club should be rewarding loyal fans that part with huge amounts of money in this financial climate it should have been an easy token of goodwill to raise the parking barrier free of charge as they had spent so much, people don't seem to use common sense anymore! The club should be showing the best example I agree they should have noted where they were parking first.

I agree with a lot of your anti Cortese, anti Adkins, anti Southampton football club sentiments. The voice of reason! A true modern day 'fan'
St Lej Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Gotta love the cheesy, look how upset we are posture of the two clowns milking it for all it's worth. Did at least one of them not stop and think "hang on a minute, we are possibly going to look like a pair of ****z if this goes to print".

Did at least one of them not stop and think "hang on a minute, we are possibly going to look like a pair of ****z if this goes to print". Imagine being the photographer. "Now, hold up your season ticket from last year. That's it. Now look a bit grumpy. No, a bit more. A bit more still. That's it. You, Wonk in the background, can you just look like you've got sh*t smeared under your nose? Yes, that's it. Perfect". Click. And they say investigative journalism is dead.

JustMike Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 you do know that you are arguing over something that happened bloody ages ago!
JustMike Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 They could use you in the gaza strip mike hahaha damn straight!

Just following up your posting trends. Don't like the response, don't feed the material!

GAS Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/9127925.Saints_fans_return_season_tickets_due_to_car_parking_change/Should have given him the quid back, principles mean a lot (especially when your a grumpy old man).
St Lej Posted 22 November, 2012 Posted 22 November, 2012 Funny thing is they probably regretted it once the season started and paid for each game individually, couple of weasels. Shake the echo weren't there on the day they first returned to SMS with their match tickets. Could have got them to pose for the camera looking all sad and grumpy handing their stub over to the turnstile steward
captainchris Posted 23 November, 2012 Posted 23 November, 2012 You don't think they're overreacting just a tad? No... Being charged to park when spending a thousand pounds is rightly very annoying. The club are penny pinching and exploiting. If you ridicule the supporters for being irritated about paying you should equally ridicule the club for petty charging. There is no gain or profit in risking annoying fans/customers for tuppence happeny. Stop stupid charge and keep people onside.

Have you stopped to think that maybe the car parking charge has been forced upon them? My local ASDA charge for parking but you get the money back if you spend over £5 (yes, maybe Saints should do this too) However when the price recently went up to £2.50 from £1 they explained it is because the council forced them to do it, to make people use the council car parks. They said they'd rather not charge anything!! I don't know if this is the way that Southampton City council works!!
saint_sinner Posted 23 November, 2012 Posted 23 November, 2012 Kirk!! For serious!! Isn't Kirk the name of the character (in Corrie) that he looks like? ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!! brilliant!
