Four and a half minutes to rule a goal out.

I can’t wait to be relegated back to The Championship simply to avoid this utter and complete nonsense which Premiership wide has simply spoilt fans enjoyment of what was once a beautiful game.

Probably better at age 54 than some of our current squad forwards.

12.30 kick offs on a Saturday not ideal I agree but a lot better than tonight’s at 20.00 and our upcoming home game against Spurs,19.00 on a Sunday evening for pity sake.

Very much hope your hunch is correct Nick. Any type of Saints win is 13/2 with Betfred so well worth a flutter.

Spot on wizzler, I said exactly the same thing on Nick’s preview of this evening’s game.

All the evidence points to Sports Republic being happy with a second Premiership rock bottom finish in just three seasons.

I’m afraid that currently all we can do is to comfort ourselves with looking forward to The Championship next season. Cheaper tickets, more games, largely more sensible K O times and no sodding V A R. Who knows, perhaps also the odd occasional win ?

At the end of the day there has been a Southampton Football Club since 1885 so our current difficulties will soon be forgotten as we march on.

Weren’t we interested in signing Carter Vickers a few seasons ago or is my mind playing tricks ?

Perhaps with hindsight I should have said mostly more sensible kick off times.

Half full grounds ? I don’t recall St Mary’s being half full on any occasion last season.

Agree with everything you say here Nick.

The sooner the top clubs income wise ( Man City, Man Utd , Arsenal etc etc ) get their wish and bugger off to a European Super League the better as far as I’m concerned.

I haven’t enjoyed any part of our return to The Premiership. It’s now simply a league dominated by money with the top few teams effectively just large businesses with football teams attached.

I’m already looking forward to next season in The Championship. Cheaper seats, more games, sensible K O times ( our upcoming game against Spurs starts at 19.00 on a Sunday for pity sake ) and none of the utterly pathetic V A R where biased non entities not even at the grounds decide match outcomes.

saint22, you are not wrong and yes they are persisting.

Persisting all the way back to The Championship along most probably with Ipswich and Leicester as company.

Sports Republic relegated us the season before last so why is it even a surprise that they have done it again ?

If you took S F C to court you would lose and end up paying their costs into the bargain.

What we as season ticket holders have purchased is the right to access the stadium on 19 occasions during the season to watch football.Nothing more and nothing less I’m afraid.

Legally S F C have no obligation to provide any particular standard of football whatsoever, as has been adequately proven by their efforts so far this season.

If you don’t want to attend your only route to recovery of your outlay is to put your ticket on the exchange and hope that someone is daft enough to purchase it. Even then I believe I I’m correct in suggesting that any sums accrued can only be spent on next season’s tickets or in the club shop.

Because Sports Republic are quite happy with the situation.

We were effectively relegated during the weekend the clocks went back and will be playing in The Championship next season. Why then would they wish to waste more money getting shot of him ?

Given our current league position together with the quality of the squad there’s not a manager on the face of the earth that would be able to save us from relegation now.

This season is over. Look forward to next August with the great messiah Russell in charge. Cheaper tickets, more games, no V A R and we may even win a few matches.

Just a normal match day at St Mary’s as we journey ever more quickly to The Championship.

Aided and abetted by a doughnut of a manager who thinks it’s a tactical master class to play a very short winger as a full back when taller specialist defenders sit on the bench.

Absolutely pathetic.

Not only are we the laughing stock of The Premiership having effectively been relegated before the clocks went back but now the manager and players are participating in a Kindergarten.

Honestly, are there any depths to which Sports Republic won’t let us sink ?

Sports Republic have done nothing in the first week of the International Break.

Why on earth would anybody think that they will do anything in the second ?

We are to all intents and purposes we are relegated and they don’t have the money to make a change.

at 09:53 14 Nov 2024

As a season ticket holder I received an email yesterday suggesting I could purchase additional tickets for the fixture. I’m not attending in any event due to personal reasons.

Out of interest I checked availability on the club’s website.

There are literally thousands of tickets unsold throughout the stadium with nearly every area having massive availability..

I appreciate that the fixture is next months but was genuinely surprised at the lack of take up so far.
