Saints have sold the last few remaining tickets for the visit of West Ham United.
Saints will get there first 30k plus crowd of the season for the top of the table clash with West Ham United at St Mary's this evening, hopeflly topping the 31,653 who saw the Walsall game at the end of last season, although whether it will top the 32k mark that truly represents a fully sold out stadium will depend on the sales in the corporate areas.
But assuming a gate of around 31,500 this would push the average attendance at St Mary's well over the 25,000 mark for the season so far, a good total but one that it would really be nice to see us maintain over the coming months when teams of not such a high interest level play here.
Hopefully those stay away fans that are coming tonight and havent been much over the last year will see a good entertaining game that will encourage them to come back again, this team deserves more than the 23,900 average it currently has going into the game and if we as supporters want to see the team stay at the top and perhaps strengthened in the January transfer window then we have to get right behind it and support it week in week out, not just for the backing that will help the team, but for the extra income that it will bring into the club and can be used to strengthen.
