Saint Charlie Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 (edited) Same starting XI as the Feyenoord game I reckon. Under 4k tickets left so should be a cracker and any lead would be great to take over there. 8.05 KO and on BT Sport for anyone not going.

Big Ron fan Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 I and 3 other Saints-supporting family members are at the Test at Edgbaston next Thursday. Can anyone recommend a pub in Birmingham that will be showing the Saints game please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wedge Posted 24 July, 2015 Share Posted 24 July, 2015 My first evening game at SMS in a decade or more and my first European game. Feels oddly emotional. Unless we do a repeat Steaua performance. Dead excited. Would love to see the same team as last night's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Le God Posted 25 July, 2015 Share Posted 25 July, 2015 BT Sport it is on? Pleased I am. Isn't that just group stages onwards? The home leg of Saints’ UEFA Europa League third qualifying round clash with Vitesse will be broadcast live on BT Sport. The kick-off time for the game, which takes place at St Mary’s on Thursday 30th July, has now been confirmed for 8.05pm BST. Coverage begins on BT Sport 1 at 7.45pm BST. The second leg, played a week later at Vitesse’s GelreDome stadium, will kick off at 8pm local time (7pm BST). Any potential television coverage has yet to be confirmed. http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/article/20150724-vitesse-europa-league-tv-coverage-kick-off-times-2569811.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Balls Posted 25 July, 2015 Share Posted 25 July, 2015 Sounds like it's going to sell out which is good. Should be a quality atmosphere as an evening game. Not sure we'll risk JRod from the start for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint97 Posted 25 July, 2015 Share Posted 25 July, 2015 Stekelenburg Cedric, Fonte, Yoshida, Targett Wanyama, Clasie Tadic, Mane, Rodriguez Pelle Aside from Targett I think that's a really strong lineup. Wouldn't surprise me if Rodriguez didn't start though. No need for a strong team to face Espanyol a few days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldsarum Posted 26 July, 2015 Share Posted 26 July, 2015 Was saying much the same to my 15 yr old son, on way back from St Mary's yesterday after buying him his new home shirt When we were in administration and even later when Cortese came out and said that despite us starting the season on minus 10 points, that we'd be back in the premier league in 5 years, that in 2015 we'd have been in premier league again for 3 seasons, just about to start 4th and would also be in in Europa league, with a Wembley win along the way.

JRM Posted 27 July, 2015 Share Posted 27 July, 2015 Looking on the ticket website this morning this game is now virtually sold out with just single tickets left in most blocks with the exception of the family centre which still has quite a lot of availability, I guess it is a late kick off and many are away on summer holidays. If you want to get a few tickets together will need to buy today in the chapel or get Saints Bar hospitality for £30 which is a good deal for a padded seat on half way line. I read in The Pink at the weekend that Vitesse have 4 players on loan from Chelsea but not all are expected to feature with the oldest one being England U20 captain Lewis Baker, I'm sure if he does play Targett and Reed will know all about him. It sounds like Vitesse have lost a couple of their better players and haven't replaced them so far, will be interesting to hear Vitesse fans thoughts on that. They could be thinking the same about us and the loss of our record breaking back 5 though with Alderweireld, Clyne gone and Forster and Bertrand unavailable.
