The Official Southampton FC Thread

[The jiffle king]

They will make a Film out of our season and people will say it's too far fetched. 5 years ago we were playing in league 1 and now 3rd.

What I like is how Koeman has continued the team ethos and we seem like a really strong group. Today was not pretty, but even Jose does not do pretty all the time.

[SaintsPaul]

Waaaaaheyyyyy

Absolutely f*cking brilliant.
What a team performance. To restrict Man Ure to NO shots on target is priceless.
Can we finish top 4 ? Probably not but we are still in there and we give this a go right to the end of the season.
So proud to be a Saints fan tonight

Bloody fantastic result! Superb!

[SaintsPaul]

Forgot to add last night how gracious in defeat Rooney and LVG were NOT

Shrek the carpet headed tw@t really thought they deserved to win the game !
Always knew he was an idiot

[Legacywr]

They wouldn't have scored in 100 years with Mata playing

With a record worse than Moyes's it's hardly surprising really. Give the guy a chance though he's only spent £145m on improving the team, give him time

I was at OT on Sunday and sat with the home fans. They were understandably unhappy with their team's performance which was complacent at best. I'm just thankful we could capitalise by getting that important goal.

Yet LVG said Man United dominated with all of their 0 shots in target

In other good news, the U21s are top of the table: http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/matchday/barcla...

What is the cheapest way for me to take 3 under 11's to a Saints home game.

46 bloody quid for an adult ticket but it looks like you get 1 free under 11.

So would I effectivley need to buy 2 adults and do it that way or is there a better way? They don't seem to sell Under 11 seats on their own.

What would happen if I did buy 2 adult tickets but took 3 kids. COuld only of the kids be classed as an adult - or do they have soemthing against too many kids going in without na accompanying adult?

[SS2.]

For the upcoming West Ham game, adult tickets in the Family Stand are £36 each. Under 11s are £18 although you should qualify for a free U11 ticket when an adult ticket is purchased.

Always found the ticket office (023 8178 0780) to be very helpful - maybe worth a call ?

[Kitchski]

I think you're allowed a maximum of two U11s to one adult in the Family Stand, but don't quote me on that.

Don't forget tractor boys away is on BBC tonight chaps!

But they were the better team obviously as they dominated possession remember, which is important under the 'philosophy' ...

Of course hoping for a win tonight but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes to extra time or even penalties. On the plus side I read that Town have injuries to 1st pick players.

[Shnozz]

Any thoughts on the rumour mill re J-Rod off to City?

If I was a cynic, I might be inclined to think such rumours were being put out there by an agent keen to make a quick buck on an improved contract for his player - an agent who tweeted that he was down at St Mary's a little earlier today, perhaps.

[E65Ross]

Far from the best of games with a fair few wasted chances.... But at least we got a result.

Absolutely crap about the injuries though!

[tobinen]

Yep, not a classic by any means, but through to the next round at home to Palace.

From Town to Toon this Sat and it's on the telly.
