Quoted from Sweden
Have ordered a plane ticket from Stockholm to London on Wednesday, flying home on Thursday. Hope it is possible to get a ticket for the match in the away section. As I do not have a season ticket for natural reasons.


The usual away allocation at Southampton is just over 3,000, but in the unlikely event we can shift that many they’ll give us as many as we need. You’ll get a ticket.

We'd have easily sold it out on a Saturday.

Thanks Klipperty and alike for bullying the authorities into making it a midweek game with no replays!

St Mary's has a capacity of 32,000 and they have to give a minimum 15%, so 4800 by my reckoning.

Would appear to be the case.

I feel for anyone who lives in Grimsby as it's a brutal journey but for those of us who live in the South it's doable. I'm in Aylesbury and it'll be 2-3 hours depending on traffic. The London mob will be there.

Just down the road for me so no excuses for not being there so long as I can get a ticket.

But a serious distance from Grimsby so we’ll done to the genius who came up with the idea of making these games midweek.


The world weighs on my shoulders
But what am I to do
You sometimes drive me crazy
But I worry about you

as ever, the fans were the last people to be considered when that decision was made.

Now let's see.....

6 hour drive to Boston, Massachusetts, flight to Gatwick, rent a car at Gatwick, hotel for 2 nights in Southampton......

Much as I would love to be there, I won't be able to make it.  It's the Grimsby Live commentary for me again, although sometimes I can get Hullberside on my computer.

My wife still can't understand why there were screams of "GET IN!!!!!!" from my office yesterday.
