In the past 24 hours, we’ve been patted on the head, dismissed as a finalist while all the other teams in the draw have been billed as in the last chance saloon to “save their season”.
Yeah, we’re only waiting for our first major honours since 1976 you patronising cunts.
Their condescension reeks of entitlement. Perfect example were the number of Untd supporters who left Wembley last season before the League Cup was presented after the game.
Do you think ANY Saints supporter would have done that…not a chance.
Forget Portsmouth. Southern Manchester United fans are the worst fans on the planet.
When we were drinking before the Cup Final, there was an 80/20 split between Saints fans and Manchester United fans. The Mancunian lads were sound. The Irish lads were sound.
I was walking to the bar, singing OWTS during a rendition from our lot, and this mush tells me to “fucking shut up”, in a manner that implies potential violence.
Hearing that he’s neither Mancunian nor Irish, I ask “where are you from?”.
“What does that matter?”, he asks.
“I’m from Southampton. They’re my team. You’re not from fucking Manchester, and neither is your team”.
I know that we’re statistically unlikely to win anything. I also know that no-one that supports Saints is in it for trophy glory, which is why I’m not as dismissive of Southampton fans from elsewhere as I would be of big club fans.
It will come all too infrequently, but if and when it does, that glory will be ours in a way that “fucking shut up” man from Surrey will never know.
So looks like Members with a purchase history who bought membership before the Wigan Cup Game should be OK for tickets as well as all ST Holders.
Looks like I am OK as one of my mates isn’t able to go and I got in to ask first. May have one single ticket on my Membership but that will go to one of our krew down here.
