| Forum Reply | European matches and ticket advice please. at 15:33 11 Feb 2025
I have been to several matches across Europe in the past few years and have never used one of the package companies. It does depend who you want to see though. I have been to games at all of the top Spanish sides (apart from Real Madrid as I don't like them) and have bought tickets from their websites. Same when I went to watch Roma. I've found top flight Bundealiga tickets harder to get, but have been to watch Hertha Berlin a few times and that is quite the experience. 71500 there when I went the other week, with around 25000 Hamburg fans. Plus, Berlin is an amazing city and is pretty cheap. For Ajax tickets StWizzler and I used a ticket agency to guarantee tickets and that wasn't too pricey. Would definitely recommend doing it, I've had some great times. |
| Forum Reply | 5 Things About The Burnley Game at 13:11 11 Feb 2025
My ST is in the Northam. I'll be moving next season. Constant chants of that awful Allez dirge coupled with weird, racist chants about our players' cocks aren't really my thing. We don't seem to do fan culture that well down here. Shame as the set up is decent enough. The fanzone isn't really for me but it seems popular for those that do want to use it. But what a depressing place the whole stadium was on Saturday, quite the opposite of FA Cup games in the past Some huge decisions to be made by the club this summer, and I think we'll be starting from scratch with a new team and management [Post edited 11 Feb 14:59]

Agree with that. I think Walcott had a good career. He should have had a great career. He burst on the scene with us and played without fear. Left far too soon and though he did well,.I think playing for a year or two in the Championship would have made him better. I think Dibling may have benefitted from being left out a few times this season, which if we hadn't been so absolutely terrible, may have happened |

I think it is a Man City chant harping back to when they were not owned by a nation state, and weren't quite so unlikeable. Totally take your point though. Also "How sht must you be, it's only etc etc" [Post edited 16 Jan 9:47]

| Forum Reply | Is it ever acceptable to abuse players on social media at 10:36 14 Jan 2025
No, it isn't acceptable. As long as they are doing their best (if I was a Brentford fan, I'd be livid at Wissa's effort to stop the Plymouth goal, but wouldn't abuse him), then no, it is unfair. Especially when their families see it. Though I'll contradict myself and say I have no problem abusing politicians etc for what they do. Just don't let it get personal |

Blokes in dresses telling fairy stories to kids, some of whom they later is abuse has been an issue here for a while. I guess you aren't talking about the church though? The whole Woke thing.has been blown out of all proportion. It is pretty easy to ignore stuff you don't want to participate in (Pride, marches, petitions or whatever), and also not be offended by the things you are told we are offended by. Far less hassle to just try and get on with people, and judge individuals on their actions |

Yes. This is the North Hands derby. Winch have had recent derbies against Totton, Sholing and The Demi-Skates of Havant and Waterlooville. Yet Merther away was midweek. |

Assuming it is on, I am going to go to Basingstoke v Winchester on Saturday I am going to Fortress St Mary's as well. My 19yo asked if I was going to go with him*, and that won't happen much longer, so I got us tickets *His mates aren't going. He knows I'll pay. |
| Forum Reply | Great Southampton V Liverpool Games Of The Past at 20:51 22 Nov 2024
The 4-1 in Oct 89 was probably the best I have ever seen a Saints team play. 4-2-4 with a young team with no fear. Other notable wins were 3-2 in Apr 83 (my second match, and Holmes scoring a beauty), and the 3-2 in 2016 from 2-0 down. Also, a 3-2 win up there in 98. I was in the home end to the right of the Saints fans. The Scousers around me sussed me, and plied me with whisky. Great afternoon. [Post edited 22 Nov 2024 21:37]

That late Saturday 1-0 defeat was good for Strachan's reaction. The team was so poor that he apparently got them in for training at 10am the next day. He turned up at 12 and said "You wasted two hours of everyone's time yesterday, I have wasted two hours of yours today". I hope that is true. |

"Also, Everton's record at SMS isn’t great" To be fair, neither is Southampton's. I have had my eye on that Derby record since about the 3rd/4th game. |
