Match Day Thread Manchester United vs Southampton EFL CUP Final Sunday 26/02/2017 Kick-Off 4:30PM

Just found I am actually going to be there after all!

I have no idea how I'm going to sleep tonight considering how bad I've been when thinking I wasn't going to be there.

 

Don't look at the price...

Considering how much I loved, and still do love, flicking through the JPT programme, £10 will not scare me off one jot.

 

Saints training live on Facebook.

 

Did I just imagine it, but does our new CB actually have 2 feet?

****, they must be knackered after all that intense training!

 

It won't scare me off either. It will piss me off though, especially if it's full of adverts that should have more than paid for the cost of producing and distributing the thing.

 

Whilst the final is going to be highlight of the weekend, one thing that I'm really looking forward to is the build up in London. Just that thought of waking up Sunday morning see that it's 9/10am, the sun is brilliantly shining through the windows, you can hear the hustle and bustle of the city. The thought of right, getting the shirt on, getting the tickets ready, thinking about food on the way, and then thinking "right, let's amble our way over to Wembley".

Most other people are going about their day, they have places to be, people to see. You on the other hand are with your family, friends, laughing, chatting and shaking just that little bit as you get in the tube/bus/overground/car. As you get closer you see and hear the commotion around you, everyone going to the same place. Then you get there, and excitement builds as you get that first glimpse of the arch. But it's not time yet. The sun is out, you keep chatting away, have a drink, have some food. Then it's time. The moment you've been waiting for. The most nail-biting 90 minutes of your recent history.

Come on boys!

 

Which pubs are Saints pubs then ?

 

Just found out the training technique that will increase the number of goals scored. Scientists have trained bees to move small balls towards a target by rewarding them with sugar when they score. Just need one of our coaches to stand near the goal and toss bon bons to every Saints player who gets a goal. Could try aversion therapy at the other end by throwing Garibaldi biscuits to ManU players who get too near the goal.

 

I'm planning on starting from wembley central and working my way towards the ground

 

Don't go in a car

 

i don't care too much for finals.

i like the 2nd round of tournaments

 

Watching this (time and time again) I am left in no doubt whatsoever that I am absolutely going to lose my **** when we win.

 

i am going to watch this game sat on the toilet with a herbal tea

 

Brilliant post.

Just finished work until Tuesday afternoon and counting down the hours until my alarm goes off at 6am on Sunday.

Up the ****ing Saints!
