4500 season tickets potentially becoming available for general sale and hand full of restricted view seats still going.
Quick bit of mental maths and you have potential for a sell out!

Its going to be a cracker and hope we put the saints to bed. Palarse will be a different kettle of fish as they are full of pace and a will to survive ,coupled with the new manager syndrom it would be a lot more difficult than Southampton imho.

Two opposition sides that are no pushovers, but we have the capabilities to overcome both teams especially with home advantage and the crowd behind us. I would feel more confident about it had it been a convincing display and win against County yesterday but if we can get past Southampton in this imminent replay, then we can get past Crystal Palace thereafter.

Southampton are gunning for Top 4..... Koeman couldn't give a witches tit about the FA Cup. If he did, they'd have won at St Mary's.
3-1 ITFC on Wednesday @ PR.

Really Marko.
Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has said it was "his dream" to take his side to the FA Cup final at Wembley and played a full-strength side at a sold-out St Mary's Stadium, and was said to be pretty pissed off that his side didn't win at the first attempt.
I think he will still see the replay as winnable even if he doesn't play a full strength side, I'm certainly not convinced he won't want to win.

My comments were fuelled with Budweiser and pure ignorance of Koemans FA Cup comments. How's that for honesty?
I just thought with both Arsenal and Spurs being extremely lukewarm this season, Koeman would see the Champions League as a genuine goal and FA Cup midweek replays as a hindrance to the cause.
But hey, I run a heating & plumbing business......, I know f*ck all.

Hey Marko
He may well have changed his mind after that win at Old Trafford yesterday on the back of a win against Arsenal and a draw v Chelsea.
I suspect he may well see a Champions League place as a realistic target and given their fixture at Newcastle this coming Saturday he may well play a weakened side.....
.. however after our performance on Saturday even his second string may be difficult for us to win 3-1 against, but I hope you're right.
... having said that... I guess there's a reason why you're 23rd in the Prediction League, maybe you should stick to Plumbing & Heating!!!
... or drinking Bud..

Bud is a good bud of mine, we are pals. Heating & Plumbing can go fk itself at times.
It's quite difficult to believe that they were in League One with Norwich 3 years ago. Now they are sniffing the Champions League. Great achievement. Champions league qualification would be huge for them.

Just hope they can hang onto Ronald Koeman who appears to be a really good fit with the club.
.. and just think many were writing them off when they sold so many of their good players last summer.

They (Southampton)are a brilliant side just now, and i dont use that Word lightly. Can you think of another smallish Club that could sell five or six of its first teamers and Loose their manager only to come back even stronger the very next season?
They also have a brilliant acadamy and some really decent youngsters coming through.
My Little nephew is at Luton Towns acadamy and Ive seen Southamptons on numerous occasions as Ive always been impressed with their training and set up. Matches for the under 10s and upwards videoed and decused after every match.
A very good deserved win at OT over the weekend against a first team United is not to be underestimated.
