Saints foreva Posted 13 September, 2017 Posted 13 September, 2017 That's not a positive. Our opening five home and away games selling out, in spite of the poor results, is. If we won a major trophy in this century, we'd have 40,000 fans hammering at the doors every home game and 2,000+ every away game. For its size, we are arguably the most underachieving team in the country yet the fans keep turning up. That is totally positive. Did Watford sell out? There were loads of empty seats in the Chapel.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 13 September, 2017 Posted 13 September, 2017 It's a shame really. You start positivity threads; while others like ALWAYS start threads about fellow posters. https://www.saintsweb.co.uk/showthread.php?57975-SWF-Stalkers-Thread Guess you can only do you pal -and hope a bit of that goodwill rubs off on others. Whereas you just try you be clever and funny in your post bus sadly you fail miserably, its a shame as you try so hard...
Nordic Saint Posted 13 September, 2017 Posted 13 September, 2017 Did Watford sell out? There were loads of empty seats in the Chapel. Yes, it did. Apparently, the club is not licensed to sell every seat so several hundred seats have to be left empty, which means our real capacity is less than the stadium's official capacity. Add to that the fact that some people who've bought seats can't make it for various reasons, like illness, and you're always going to see some empty seats.

Heisenberg Posted 24 December, 2017 Author Posted 24 December, 2017 Merry Christmas Everyone :badger:
OttawaSaint Posted 24 December, 2017 Posted 24 December, 2017 I think I speak for everyone else on this board when I say “**** off troll”. Merry Christmas.
ally_uk Posted 24 December, 2017 Posted 24 December, 2017 Positives? We have some youth talent We can properly bed in when we face championship football....
Ivan Katalinic's 'tache Posted 24 December, 2017 Posted 24 December, 2017 Here's a personal positive - 2017 is nearly over. In the 35+ years I've been going to watch Saints play live, 2017 will be the first calendar year I've not seen us win a match (12 games). Good riddance to it & here's hoping to a much better 2018. Unfortunately, in order for that to happen I fear we'll either need a change of manager or to spend heavily on attacking talent or it could be just as bad...
austsaint Posted 25 December, 2017 Posted 25 December, 2017 Only positives for me have been watching Lemina play (ankle permitting) and also glimpses of attacking class from Boufal. I've also got some anticipation about seeing Sims and Hesketh play a part in the new year although that may depend on how "safe" we are from relegation.
Turkish Posted 25 December, 2017 Posted 25 December, 2017 The championship is probably the best and most competitive league in Europe We will be one of the biggest clubs in it Most of our helmet fans will f*ck off like they did last time Most of our helmet players will f*ck off More matches No pundits wa*king off about mangers Better atmosphere and prices More Saturday 3pm kick offs
Pamplemousse Posted 25 December, 2017 Posted 25 December, 2017 Better prices in the Championship won’t happen, for away fans anyway. There’s no cap on away ticket prices, some of the prices teams charge away fans are extortionate.

DT Posted 25 December, 2017 Posted 25 December, 2017 Positive=pitch looks good. Virgin a top sponsor, and not connected to betting, booze or fags. Lemina looks a player, although at sea like the rest of them with no managerial nous behind him. Prospect of Sims returning (on the pressure). Hoj is excellent and people are starting to see that. Austin scores goals. Stephens could be a big player for us. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 for once even I am struggling Your positives are everyone else`s negatives
Micky Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 for once even I am struggling Surely you can come up with one of your highly respected opinions? I'm shocked.
OttawaSaint Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 for once even I am struggling Maybe your grip is too strong. How many knuckles are you showing?
Lets B Avenue Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 Maybe your grip is too strong. How many knuckles are you showing? It might be affecting his golf as well?
Born In The 80s Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 There is currently only one positive: a Wembley appearance and 2 games from winning the FA Cup. Incredibly, we still have a chance to make this a historic season. The league is obviously gone and I think we are all resigned to Championship football next year. But if there's one thing that could motivate our useless string of overpaid, prima-donnas then it's a Wembley appearance.
Heisenberg Posted 4 April, 2018 Author Posted 4 April, 2018 80's thank you - we need more positivity just now. The normal negative posters out in force again I see - take a break guys. We have enough doom n gloom around just now. Stay positive guys
SKD Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 Positives of Relegation It will give us the chance to rebuild and hopefully we can get some likeable, committed players (something like the last squad we had in the championship). It'll hopefully give the likes of Targett, Reed & Sims the platform to kick on (like Lallana, Morgan, Fonte did)... Hopefully we (the fans) can regain some affiliation with the club. Cheaper tickets and hopefully a more enjoyable experience. Plenty of good away games. Less attractive to Chinese / American tourists. Positives of our current situation Cup semi final. Most have now seen through Reed and our current board. Hopefully Kat and this Chinese crook will lose some money. If I'm honest, over the last couple of years I have fallen out of love with the game and I'm actually looking forward to the championship. Bring it on.
Heisenberg Posted 4 April, 2018 Author Posted 4 April, 2018 Another positive - we have Quincy Promes joining in the summer. and still have £55m from the VVD sale to waste
Heisenberg Posted 4 April, 2018 Author Posted 4 April, 2018 Not sure id describe the black box as a positive anymore T?
shurlock Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 Another positive - we have Quincy Promes joining in the summer. and still have £55m from the VVD sale to waste Promes in the summer! Get our business done early as Les likes to say.
tobes8 Posted 4 April, 2018 Posted 4 April, 2018 I am being extremely positive in that I positively predict we won’t win another league match this season.
Heisenberg Posted 5 April, 2018 Author Posted 5 April, 2018 Is it a positive that so many recent ex players are doing so well with Liverpool? Gives you a sense of what could have been I suppose
JRM Posted 5 April, 2018 Posted 5 April, 2018 Is it a positive that so many recent ex players are doing so well with Liverpool? Gives you a sense of what could have been I suppose It’s a positive that we won’t have to play against the shlts next season. Raheem Sterling coming on to boos and chants of “there’s only one greedy bastard” by the Liverpool fans were a bit ironic I thought.
Brave Sir Robin Posted 5 April, 2018 Posted 5 April, 2018 Pompey are in with a shout of promotion to the Championship. We could get our derby's back next season!

I've gotten use to that charge and would have to think twice when Leeds go and charge us £46 on the opening day or something.

I've gotten use to that charge and would have to think twice when Leeds go and charge us £46 on the opening day or something. Unfortunately not, don’t know full details but a Reading fan I know has moaned about £42 at Leeds and £30-£35 is common especially places that stick you on the side like Villa, Ipswich, Norwich. I’m sure I’ve read Sheffield Wednesday charge £39 for some clubs https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/sheffield-wednesday-blasted-by-bristol-city-fans-over-opening-day-ticket-prices-1-7374958/amp
JRM Posted 5 April, 2018 Posted 5 April, 2018 Whilst we’re on the subject I wonder if Virgin Media will keep subsidising away fans that visit St Mary’s even in the Championship? And didn’t they say there’d be another game subsidised for us still this season?
Ex Lion Tamer Posted 5 April, 2018 Posted 5 April, 2018 Looking forward to seeing Gallagher leading the line in the Championship. Also is there any chance that Carrillo will stay and be a class apart at that level?
Wrensup Posted 5 April, 2018 Posted 5 April, 2018 Looking forward to seeing Gallagher leading the line in the Championship. Also is there any chance that Carrillo will stay and be a class apart at that level? In league 1 maybe
skintsaint Posted 10 April, 2018 Posted 10 April, 2018 Two more positives will be Liverpool winning the CL and Spurs winning the FAC. *Sarcasm mode off*
SO16_Saint Posted 15 April, 2018 Posted 15 April, 2018 I would actually keep Hughes and see who from the squad we can retain for The Championship. We should be able to give it a good go of coming straight back up
whelk Posted 27 August, 2018 Posted 27 August, 2018 Having you on ignore and smiling at your perpetual needy bumping of threads to seek attention. Cheap lovely Carlsberg
Cabbage_Face Posted 27 August, 2018 Posted 27 August, 2018 Lemina will be sold for around 25 million come Jan. [emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Badger Posted 27 August, 2018 Posted 27 August, 2018 Lemina will be sold for around 25 million come Jan. [emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Or £35m next summer if he performs for the full season.
Heisenberg Posted 4 November, 2018 Author Posted 4 November, 2018 Take positive..... It can't get much worse than this. #rockbottom
Saint-Fred Posted 4 November, 2018 Posted 4 November, 2018 We scored a goal which I can't remember us doing for ages
