100%Red&White Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 Someone at BT Sports is having a right laugh at Saints fans. Hopefully Sunderland will now price it accordingly and if there's any 'Away Fans Fund' left after the lovely paint job for the visitors to SMS, maybe away travel could be subsidised.

Mowgli Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 The announcement just says it is a lunchtime KO. I don't see anything indicating that it is on TV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sour Mash Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 It should be. Get Saints to chuck in free travel and lets take the full allocation up there. Not sure what difference free travel would make - half the people that do away games like Sunderland don't live near enough to Southampton to use it, and many will simply be put off my the early start and length of journey. Free match ticket would be nice though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holepuncture Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 Nice one, pub lunch and football. LOL exactly. I know ticket monies is peanuts nowadays, but its a major part of the overall product so its a shame it gets thye chicken feed treatment. Saints fans going the length of the country, twice in less than a calendar month, for a lunchtime kickoff is a disgrace and suggests the football authorities do not even consider the away fans in anyway at all when doing the big money deals with the broadcasters. Enjoy your lunch, and the cash that will remain in your pocket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie66 Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 I am going with Legod third coming. Fortunately we are getting the 8.10 train from Kings x which gets in at 11.40 so barring delays should get to the game.Just hope we win as we have to wait for 5.30pm train to return. !! Would be nice if club did something for those fans going as it is a bloody long way and for the third time this season !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ericofarabia Posted 29 January, 2014 Share Posted 29 January, 2014 Oh well. Hull here I come. Toying with the same idea myself. Back in Leigh that week, but flying out early Sunday morning, so Sunderland in the pub at lunchtime is the only realistic option for me .... but a cold wet winter's night in UK's 2017 City of Culture ... what more could one ask for Mrs EoA may not quite see it that way though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yorkie Posted 30 January, 2014 Share Posted 30 January, 2014 Nice cheap tickets - and same at Hull a few days before...but what incentive is there to go when live on TV? Still reckon anyone who makes the trip should be given automatic first shout on semi and or final tickets - like the old voucher scheme of yesteryear. I went for the LC game, and wasn't impressed with the seats now allocated to away fans. Park & ride was OK though - but pubs are a bit of a distance from the ground for a pre-match bevvy. Not sure about this - cheer them on in the mob or sit at home on my own watching a laptop? Seems like a no brainer to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
