mulletsaint Posted 17 July, 2015 Share Posted 17 July, 2015 I'm Dutch and I can tell you guys will be fine. As somebody mentioned their selection of players changes heavily every year, due to loans etc. Each year they lose their best players and need to rebuild their squad. (This season they lost their star players Traore, Pröpper, Vejinovic) I can't see Vitesse beat a way more solid Southampton anyway. Besides that, Koeman knows them very well, will be a big advantage. They sound a bit like us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 7 teams at shorter odds than Saints with bet365, so that makes Saints joint 8th favourites (along with the others at 33/1).

Woody00028 Posted 17 July, 2015 Share Posted 17 July, 2015 This is still a winnable tie. Just because they get players from Chelsea doesn't mean squat really, you can't compare Baker and Brown to Fabregas and Costa. Indeed, you can't really compare then to Chalobah and Bamford even, really. Side note, any chance that there will be telly coverage of this?

Will it be ST holders, then members, then general - or will there be a preference for ST holders + first leg attendees, then ST holders, then members, then general? Ticketing will surely be done on last season's away attendance record. No idea what the cutoff would be to be guaranteed, but the 3000 allocations tended to go to 5+ aways, so would expect this one to be 8+ initially, probably with only one-day windows for each group.

No nothing official. Though they only have to offer us 5% of the stadium. I dont know the precedent for larger away crowds in the ground, only what I have seen myself on twitter.

UEFA regulations say you only have to offer 5% of capacity to away fans, and from the photos it looks as if those fences are pretty much fixed.
