Colinjb Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 No, it is only practical when in the same city. 17 miles apart with significant other places in between doesn't equal same city. The Skates would reject it outright anyway. They have something we don't seem to right now. Pride.
St Landrew Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 You do know that taking drugs is illegal dont you :confused: I love the way football supporters flap around like little fish when they read things they hate. Read the last sentence but one again.
Gemmel Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 I love the way football supporters flap around like little fish when they read things they hate. Read the last sentence but one again. It's got nothing to do with reading things they don't like (Personal insults are infractional by the way) it's just the whole logistics, politics, economics, etc etc don't work, could never work, wouldnt work in 3008 let alone now. If you really think it's something for the future, i'd check into the priory......Nothing to do with rivalry, more the maths. I love it when mods flap like fish, after they post stupid things
Torrent Of Abuse Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 How about we convince them to groundshare, get them to bulldoze Fratton Park and then tell them we're not interested any more. It would make me laugh anyway.
Mole Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 I love it when mods flap like fish, after they post stupid things Especially when it's mods of the jumped up variety. I'm not talking about you btw St Landrew, just making a general observation.
bridge too far Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 In support of St L, I can remember that the idea of Solent City was mooted by the powers-that-be as long ago as the mid 70s :shock:
aqbadger Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 I would rather be watching Saints in League 2 than groundshare with them lot

Winchester Exile Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 Frankly I can't believe this thread. A supposed Saints fan suggesting ground sharing with the Skates and finding support for this point of view!!!. The world's gone bloody mad. Having in an intense rivalry with that lot is one of the defining characteristics if a Saints fan. Ground sharing with them is anathema to this. It's not the same as Milan as that's the same city and historically acceptable. This idea should never be acceptable to a Saints fan. Ever! It would be like sharing you wife with Hitler or Fred West. Unbelievable!!
Papa Shango Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 ...someone from SLH, please sit down with the Pompey board and discuss this issue, FFS. Surely Fratton Park can be sold for housing when the property market recovers, and this will help Pompey. Renting St. Mary's to Pompey for their home games will also help us. Increased matchday income all round and both clubs will stand a far better chance of surviving the economies of football and yet....I have a feeling this eminently sensible solution to the financial problem facing both clubs will die at the feet of knuckle dragging, rabid, shortsighted fanatics. Surely if AC and Inter Milan can share grounds, we can. Jeez, for the local derby between our clubs we would sell 45,000 tickets, more than paying for the added security. In fact, a lot of people from the M27 corridor from Chichester to Bournemouth, from the M3 corridor from Southampton to Basingstoke would go every week to see both teams. 45,000 capacity would be needed...and we may even end up with both clubs dominating the Premiership. Who knows? ****
Graffito Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 It's a wind up. Posting it on one of their messages boards would be more appropriate.

saintwarwick Posted 20 November, 2008 Posted 20 November, 2008 I'd still love you to explain it, as I'm not very clever... Judging by this thread you started you'd be right.
Frank's cousin Posted 21 November, 2008 Posted 21 November, 2008 feck where did the sense of humour go....
Winchester Exile Posted 21 November, 2008 Posted 21 November, 2008 There is no sense of humour when it comes to the skates. Intense rivalry doesn't allow for humour. It's serious and should be in your red and white blood as a Saints fan. One of the reasons the fans have fallen away so quickly since we've been relegated is a lack of passion and attachment to the club and a lack of appreciation of just what it means to support the Saints i.e. loyalty through thick and thin, help one another like brothers (and sisters), intense dislike of all things skate, keeness to travel, sing your head off, etc.
eelpie Posted 21 November, 2008 Posted 21 November, 2008 Won't somebody please think of the toilets!! Especially if local clubs end up team-sharing! http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/blog/2008/nov/21/liverpool-everton-premier-league

Unbelievable!! No not unbelieveable when it might keep us out of administration and provide cash to progress. Better to share a ground than to see the Club die.
