Totally agree. The people tutting and staying sat down at southern games are those who have bought their tickets off reseller sites. The Southern Supporters are a raucous bunch.
Did you go to the Southampton game in '13? Arsenal game, same season? Brighton 1-1 FA cup away game? Full of Southern support, shocking atmosphere, if you were there you know it's right.
I'm sure from previous conversations that he is saying he is happy for his price to go up, so that money can be used for kids and oaps prices to go down (be cheaper than they are now, not just cheaper than his) And I agree with him
Oh in that case absolutely. He just seemed to be saying he was happy to pay more even if other prices stayed the same.
Not sure how you read that, but I'm sure he meant up for others to go down Be interesting what the club do next though
This is Southampton's season pass scheme for next season. Things are changing at other clubs too. You want to go into premium areas with a child or an oap wants to, you pay the full price, you pay more but not the full price in anywhere but family areas. please log in to view this image please log in to view this image
Our Premier Club is on the same lines as their 'Premium' Areas ie no concessions. But they do offer age concessions in all other areas.
There will be quite a few who sit, there always is. Not all away supporters stand, its a myth. Getting told to sit down is a problem at any game. Southern based support is well catered for by Hull CIty Southern Supporters, long "standing" fans who travel to most games.
When I said you hadn't thought it through it was a reference to boisterous young kids and unsteady OAPS in the supposedly dangerously steep and high West Stand, where away fans can'-t be put as they stand up and this could somehow lead to a surge over lots of roads of seats with the result there would be mayhem and death as they tumble our onto those below, What has Soton to do with it? It is not a low wage area still recovering from being bombed over 70 years ago like Hull.
Plenty of evidence going by TV that the vast majority of away fans stand and that we have a larger proportion than most who sir down.more evidence of that at the KC, see how few sit down compared to our away following. Maybe our fans know tow to authority more than most.
