StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 ... now that we are all but relegated, we might as well have a bit of fun on the way, sing through the 90 minutes and promote the club to any prospective buyers sitting in the stands. ( To the tune of 'keep the red/blue flag flying high ) We'll never die, we'll never die, We'll never die, we'll never die We'll keep the Red flag flying high, We'll never die, we'll never die. Simple - effective, doesn't need any added lines etc.
Amesbury Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 I hope its a good atmosphere tomorrow with a good attendance.
StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Author Posted 12 April, 2009 I hope its a good atmosphere tomorrow with a good attendance. Anything less than 25,000 is a f*cking disgrace, going into admin and kids for a quid, people are running out of excuses.
Amesbury Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Anything less than 25,000 is a f*cking disgrace, going into admin and kids for a quid, people are running out of excuses. and MLT is going to be there. It would be good to sign Matt up as our 5th substitute - just to see him strolling along the touchline again!
Windmill Arm 2 Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Anything less than 25,000 is a f*cking disgrace, going into admin and kids for a quid, people are running out of excuses. My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands.
alehouseboys Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands. Probably more about 'the club' from now on rather than 'the team'.
Amesbury Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands. ring up your mates - say lets go for a pre match drinks and have a larf at the match. If you have no mates ring up your Dad, brother, etc and say the same. If you have no mates or family, take the neighbours lad to the match.
StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Author Posted 12 April, 2009 My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands. Who goes to watch the footy anyway? I go to get smashed and sing stupid songs. It's not about the football, we are relegated, it is about giving us the best chance of investment and the best chance of having a team to watch next year.
lordswoodsaints Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Bought an extra ticket yesterday for my sons mate,there was about 10 people in the queue and people were steadily joining it but when I asked how many they had sold they replied 'there's loads left'. With the 'kids for a quid' promotion you must be looking at least 25k surely?
Dicko Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands. Why are you posting on here then? You obviously don't care about the plight of the club!
Windmill Arm 2 Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Why are you posting on here then? You obviously don't care about the plight of the club! Obvoiusly yeah.................jesus fookin christ theres one born every minute
Amesbury Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Bought an extra ticket yesterday for my sons mate,there was about 10 people in the queue and people were steadily joining it but when I asked how many they had sold they replied 'there's loads left'. With the 'kids for a quid' promotion you must be looking at least 25k surely? I hope there is 25k I have always thought, as someone who lives on the the edge of the Saints catchment area, that the club's marketing is poor. With 28,000 people in the area it could be a great source of supporters or atleast people's second club. I bet very few people in Amesbury knew about the kids for a quid offer.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Apathetic at best Maybe a few rounds of "your`e not fit too wear the shirt" as the game goes towards a expected defeat.
Griffo Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Instead of the last line of "we'll never die, we'll never die" It should be "Because Southampton will never die" instead.
Delmary Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 I'll be there tomorrow doing my bit, helping the club through its hour of need. This is only the second time in the club's 124 years history that it has been on the brink of going bust. Therefore, not going is not an option for me. I want my future generations to experience the lows and highs of supporting my club, to bleed red and white. SOS
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Got my tickets, and will pick some up for the Burnley game afterwards as well. This could be the last time I ever get to see my club so I will definitely be there.
eurosaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Sorry. No need to apologise, it's a classic and up there with Rolf Harris's '2 Little Boys' and Des O'Connor's 'Dickadumdum' !
so22saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 If there's 28k, how about, to Go West: We're here, now that Ruperts gone We're here, now that Ruperts gone ...ad infinitum

Dicko Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Sorry. I'm glad you had the sense to apologise The cheesiest song of all time
OldNick Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Throughout the season somebody in the Northam has started the red and white chant. It has resonated throughtout the ground and is not political and just a chant that the whole fan base will be comfortable joining in.How about it lads?Give it a try it shows a togetherness that we all can be behind, no politics no division and a lift to all involved.
Um Bongo Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Atmosphere seems to be better when we have 17-20k in the ground, not full of people who turn up for the cheap ticket prices. If we Win, or are winning, it will be good. Should we go a goal down, we might rally for 10 minutes or so. Should we go two down, then.....
southamptonfclegend Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 My 'Not interested in ****ing my money up the wall for dull gutless passionless football' excuse still stands. who cares?... we need support to turn it round... excuses just always come out we have 2 home games maybe EVER... and because we might not win or play good your not going to go?

I bet very few people in Amesbury knew about the kids for a quid offer. tbh if i didnt post on here i wouldnt have known about it. i am a season ticket holder and you would think that the club would have sent an email or flyer to let us know that the offer is on,i dont go on the OS as it is sh1t so i dont bother with it. somebody in the marketing department should have gone around to every school in a 20 mile radius and put up a poster,i know it is not everybodys cup of tea having thousands of kids in the ground but they would all be wanting drinks,food etc and all of the seats would have been full,i know they would only be paying a £1 but 10k kids would pay a couple of the players wages for the week.

Well alot of people don't sing 'Red and White' because of the tedious 'Barmy Army' which is included in the lyrics. Barmy Army? Save it for cricket FFS!

Also, the £1 offer is for 16yo's and under, therefore not just the 6 to 13's usually associated with these type of offers.

Thats right, and for the record I refuse to believe that nobody will come in to buy what is a 'premiership club' in waiting. You are such a better fan than me though so I will bow down, in fact I might as well be a skate such is my shocking disregard for this club
Calvin Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Stu, I expect you to be seriously drunk when you go to tomorrows Saints game. I bet you'll be in a massive state.. I can't blame you though
StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Author Posted 12 April, 2009 Stu, I expect you to be seriously drunk when you go to tomorrows Saints game. I bet you'll be in a massive state.. I can't blame you though I will be drinking from 11am tommorow, a whole 1 hour and 15 minutes earlier than usual, so I will be 3 or 4 pints more ****ed than usual as well.
Calvin Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 I will be drinking from 11am tommorow, a whole 1 hour and 15 minutes earlier than usual, so I will be 3 or 4 pints more ****ed than usual as well. that is the spirit. I will be drinking from 12. I have got to be careful now due to my budgeting. I will be at the game singing for the Saints. What I will do is drink quite a few shots of vodka and some beers before I leave my house.. Then on to the pub, where I will drink quite a lot. easiest and cheapest way to get drunk. I couldn't go to a Saints game in this scenario.. SOBER :/
OldNick Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Well alot of people don't sing 'Red and White' because of the tedious 'Barmy Army' which is included in the lyrics. Barmy Army? Save it for cricket FFS! In the games recently where it has been used I thought it brought the ground together singing, get it started Stu
StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Author Posted 12 April, 2009 In the games recently where it has been used I thought it brought the ground together singing, get it started Stu I will....... ......if I ever go to the Rose Bowl during the summer.

In my experience people in Amesbury know very little about anything that is going on in the outside world
Michelle Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 I couldn't go to a Saints game in this scenario.. SOBER :/ Unfortunately that was pretty much how I experienced the Wolves game, thanks to ****ty bank holiday traffic. 'Twas awful. Thank god I don't have to do the same tomorrow!
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 In my experience people in Amesbury know very little about anything that is going on in the outside world TBH i don`t expect you have any idea where Amesbury is, being a little bit simple...
RedArmy Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 What time is Le Tiss on the pitch tomorrow? Might have to leave the pub early.
StuRomseySaint Posted 12 April, 2009 Author Posted 12 April, 2009 What time is Le Tiss on the pitch tomorrow? Might have to leave the pub early. I am not leaving the pub early for anyone, even Matty, can you record it and stick it on youtube when you get home? Thanks xxx
Saint_clark Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 In the games recently where it has been used I thought it brought the ground together singing, get it started Stu Agreed, it's been one of the loudest chants recently AND we seem to have dropped the "barmy army" bit.
latter day saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Posted 12 April, 2009 Agreed, it's been one of the loudest chants recently AND we seem to have dropped the "barmy army" bit. i agree also, but do admit to shouting "barmy army" a few times last saturday #-o jus hope we dont do the slow "saints come marching in" thing tomorrow. can't stand it.i know the whole season has been like one long funeral march but do we have to sing like it :mad:

Greedyfly Posted 13 April, 2009 Posted 13 April, 2009 From a team perspective I agree, lets go out of the Championship with a bang. We can't ****ing defend...infact bar one season when Svensson, Claus and Niemi were the third best defence in the Premiership we never have. Lets go three at the back and just chuck the whole ****ing team at the Palace back four. What else have we got to lose? Our club? Oh!
thorpie the sinner Posted 13 April, 2009 Posted 13 April, 2009 I think the crowd will be there, just wonder if the players turn up????
alehouseboys Posted 13 April, 2009 Posted 13 April, 2009 I'm sure Palace fans will enjoy singing "...yer goin' down with the Charlton..." as they could bite the dust today...while some of ours may be tempted with a little rendition of "...there's only one Nigel Pearson..." as Leicester get promoted at around 5:50...
