Southampton Game

Post by Shed on tour » Tue Dec 09, 2014 12:30 pm

Have heard that there is a chance that this game may be switched to the Sunday or even possibly the Monday as Southampton are at home to Arsenal on the 1st January as there are Premiership fixtures on New Years day.

If not true don't shoot the messenger :lol: but just wanted to give the head's up to anyone who may only be able to attend the game on the Saturday.

Ordered mine last Friday and it dropped through the letterbox on Saturday morning.
As you say to have sold 1500 already is good going, think we will have a large following at St Mary's. :)

They had a defeat in the League Cup ? (or whatever they call it now)

Doesn't that make things worse in a sense, as they're going to put more emphasis into the FA Cup now as it is the last chance of success the South Coast club has this season ?

And doesn't the latter stages of the aformentioned League Cup occur sometime early in the new year, so therefore their continued participation would of been a little to our advantage. Just believe if they had remained in it they would've been focused on two objectives and now there's only one route to glory for them - and we're the first obstacle.

Yes it'll be a tough game for sure but if we can manage a replay and take them back to East Anglia then we should be favorites for the fourth round.

Personally I am treating it as nothing more than a great day out with loads of fellow Town fans and a chance to go to another new ground. I really dont see us coming away with a result at all if I am honest.

According to TWTD this morning Town have 3100 tickets already sold and a further allocation of 1600. This must be one of the largest away followings for years?

We have now been allocated the whole of the Northam Stand which has increased our allocation to 5,500.
Apparently this is the final allocation and no more tickets will be issued to us.
Sounds like the Blue Army is on the march again!
