Feel sorry for these poor sods really - "welcome to England", deal with the delays on the M20, the inevitable car park of the M25 through Surrey, roadworks all the way down the M3 until Basingstoke, then they get dumped in Southampton to make their own way around in a city with essentially not a lot to do.

Being a season ticket holder or member would have given you a better choice of view. You got a ticket before it sold out as you were quick, had you not been then you wouldn't have a ticket as it sold out and would have been left without one like many others.

Matthew Le God Posted 28 July, 2015 Share Posted 28 July, 2015 i think nearly every row was available too. anyway, got the seat I WANTED without having pay the rip off price of £25 (plus booking fee) When the Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Bournemouth, Chelsea, Man City tickets go sale you won't have your pick until the members have had theirs. - 21,000 season tickets holders - 3,000 away fans - 1,700 hospitality seats - for example 2,000 members snapped up tickets Leaves you scrambling for a seat on general sale with roughly only 4,000 left in the stadium. Yes, if you are early you will get one, but if you are not quick it'll sellout and you'd be left without. Plus those 4,000 will largely be in areas with the poorer views so you'd have less choice. Perhaps I've been conservative with the member numbers, if its larger then the general sale numbers will be squeezed even more for the more attractive games and it'll be even harder to get a good seat.

Matthew Le God Posted 28 July, 2015 Share Posted 28 July, 2015 poorer views? we play in a bowl ffs Why do you think the main TV camera is on the halfway line at the back? Why do you think the directors box is on the halfway line? Why do you think the most expensive seats in the stadium are on the halfway line? If you sit behind the goal or in one of the corners you are a very long way from one of the goals. If you sit and the front of the stand you don't get a good view of the pitch as a whole. The best view is from the back of the stand in line with the halfway line. anyway, no need to get into anything here. Just saying that the first big one, no rip off membership needed As I said, had you left it until today for any reason you'd have been left without. Make sure you are quick for the big league games.

Still think the 'poor seat' argument is a stretch Well its not like sitting behind a pillar at Goodison Park or Loftus Road, but in terms of view of a football game I'd much rather be on the halfway line at the back of the Itchen or Kingland than behind the goals or in the corners. Which is why they are the more expensive seats and the main TV camera uses that position. Edited 28 July, 2015 by Matthew Le God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trousers Posted 28 July, 2015 Share Posted 28 July, 2015 let it go. I got a seat where i usually sit without the need for a membership. I go to 5-7 home games a season. Will let you know if I miss out due to not having a membership I don't see the be-all-and-end-all of membership being about avoiding the possibility of missing games. Its more a matter of convenience in that I have a longer timeframe to complete my purchase. Its more akin to paying a bit extra for a flight to get priority boarding or a pre-allocated seat. I won't miss the flight without it, but it means I avoid the scramble for overhead locker space with the riff raff who didn't pay the extra (for example).

In terms of the best view you can get at St Mary's or any other ground, its best to be in line with the halfway line and reasonable high up. If you aren't as interested in watching the match and want to goad the away fans, sing songs and be a long way from one of the goals then the Northam is best.

jawillwill Posted 29 July, 2015 Share Posted 29 July, 2015 I hadn't realised quite how emotional Clasie got during the warm up for the Feynoord game before watching the latest episode of 'The March', and that he'd just found out he has another kid in the way. Have a strange feeling it might take him a little while to adapt (toblife in general) here - would be good if Saints fans gave him a proper welcome to make him feel at home/ loved tomorrow night.
