Loving the life of a saint. All who wanna dis can but we aint bought loads and who made that up is truely jealous. A team that is a team not individuals try to make a quick pound, that love football. Hat off saints as very proud for what you stand for. Oh for all you chairmen look at how a club should be run.

I support a different Championship and can spell and punctuate perfectly. Such is life, I'll accept mediocrity and non-webbed fingers.

Southampton fc have submited plans to expand st marys to 50,000 seats. The work will be carried above the kingsland and itchen stands. It is estimated a total cost of 2.4 mil to complete the works. The club will be able recoup the cost through extra sales as demand increases for tickets

Yes. As demand increases to 50,000 people. What next, Championship big boys? Automatic seeding for the World Cup?

Mr Saints fan,firstly congratulations on your start to your season,and I believe you will get promotion,but to extend your stadium from what 30/32k ish to 50k I would have thought would cost a lot more than £2.4m ?

Another bunch of dreamers. When will Saints "fans" learn.
Agree1

This Saints fan has no idea whether the plans have been submitted or the cost but the expansion to 50000 is our ambitious chairman's stated intention. It won't happen without promotion and the comments about the World Cup etc. are just pathetic, ignorant jealousy.
Agree0
Disagree2
50,000 seater??? Have they attracted 50,000 people over their last 20 games? I nearly split my sides ha ha ha, 5,000 maybe, 50,000? Wake up and smell the coffee you mug
Agree0
Disagree2
55726 in the last 2 Championship games at St Marys. I suggest you drink something stronger than coffee to drown your jealousy
Agree1

Loving the fact whenever one of my fellow Saints supporters posts anything on this site all you jealous fans jump on the band wagon and try and have a pop. Well we don't actually give a f**k what you think so carry on losers.
STID.

Because the no transfer rule only applies down to Blue Square Premier league. Dartford are in the league below this - i.e. Blue Square Southern, so players can now be signed permanently from teams in this league.

Spoke to a couple of colleagues today regarding vacant position at St Johnstone. They are definetly looking for a young manager , with similar work rate and ethics as Derek Mc. Possibly the under rated Brian Reid is the one to watch with his limited spending power has made some excellent signings and taken some big guns down this season. Also dont forget the out of work managers like Jefferies but St J being a young club dont see this happening.

my dad is a builder and he is not building a house for David Beckham. Unfortunatley, his move to Birmingham was cancelled as he refuses to play his football anywhere near the sty (villa park) the smell is unbareable and the thought of him catching foot and mouth was too much for posh spice so she put the brakes on the move. Gutted!

I agree with Maximus' general sentiment but Reading's away results are better than home. They've gone unbeaten for 6 games but with over 4000 noisy Saints fans making it feel like a home game, I think that run will end. God, I wish I hadn't said that!
