Southampton vs Stoke

CUP TIE AT HOME

Hi guys just looking for a bit of advice if possible please - looking to take my mother to the Leicester game and want to go safe standing in the Northam. She is quite small though and she's worried about not being able to see if we stand 😂

I'm pretty sure it won't be an issue because the rows are obviously staggered in height. But can someone confirm for me just before I buy tickets. Cheers !!

KWP is arguably one of the best players in our squad and RM really needs to find a way of fitting him into the starting 11 until he eventually leaves and moves to a bigger club.

I personally think we should be starting him on the left wing as he is a very good player going forward and he creates chances and is a decent finisher in front of goal.

He also gives us cover in defence when tracking back. Considering none of our other players have looked great on the left wing I think this is a no brainer.

Then just have Fraser come on late in games as an impact sub when the other teams defence is tired.

To all those who celebrate, 5 years ago today

What a a fucking disgrace.

I’ve banged on in here about the need to reinstate the excellent park and ride system, and this was reinforced yesterday when we tried the train and shuttle bus option.

The organisation for the journey in was fine - if only I could say the same for the return. There were three double deckers waiting for fans at the end of the game, yet we had to queue for 30 minutes before the doors on the third bus were opened.

The doors were only open on the front bus. People were queueing by the empty buses behind with doors closed, which then unexpectedly moved off to another unmarked point further up Britannia Road. Why not open the BACK bus first so that fans just move on to the next bus after the first one fills up?

The confusion and perceived unfairness led to a lot of understandable frustration, but there is no excuse for the red faced idiot who took it upon himself to start pushing and shoving a female steward. No matter how shambolic it was, that was completely out of order.

Rant over, I’ll be back in my car for the foreseeable future.

Yesterday marked my 11th wedding anniversary. 11 years ago we beat Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield. Yesterday we couldn’t even hold onto a 1 goal lead at home to Ipswich. What a difference in hope and optimism I feel in the team these days. One thing for sure it is always fun to be a saints fan.

Enjoy it lads! He won't play this well every game, but when he does he really is something special.

Oxford United have been doing it and it has served them well. Now Wolves are doing it and dominating villa, and winning atm. What are your thoughts? What formation would you want saints to play? And what players where?
