Firstly can I say to everyone going to the match tomorrow, I hope you have a great day and sing your heart out for the lads! I will be cheering on using a dodgy proxy from rural China, with everything crossed even have got the other foreign teachers to come over and watch and the Chinese girlfriend has even got a shirt to wear! Just curious where else in the world support is coming from! My brother will be at the game and I wish I could be there! COYR!
My son lives and works in Norway and always wears his Saints tops etc i keep buying him every Christmas, to the Gym etc and tells all Norwegians there is only one English Club to support. I have got him a ticket and he has flown over to see the game and join in the hopefully Happy Celebrations after before he flies back on Sunday.
Have a great time over there. Good bit of marketing and exposure in the Asia region should we get to the Prem. By the way, I thought foreigners were not allowed to fraternise with Chinese females over there? I thought the People's Revolutionary Guard would whisk you away if caught doing so.
All I can add is my son will be watching in Washington and my other son will be watching in Michigan USA. My brothers in Australia will be listening as they don't think it is live there. I have friends in Argentina who tell me they have found a channel that will be showing it and of course Belize. There is quite a following in Singapore I'm told so I can only hazard a guess as to whether they will be watching. So I guess that literally means around the world.
will be watching here 6.30 am- bogota , colombia with my 8 month old boy. he knows he can play for england or colombia, but he will play for southampton
If we foreigners are not allowed to fraternise with the local female population it would not be fun being here with all the ladies wishing to show how welcoming they are.
Sunny Brisbane in Australia! (Even though it's 10 degrees outside and pouring with rain ) The old man comes round, i hook the PC up to the Tele and we watch streams over the Internet! It's not that we can't afford pay TV, it's just that i swear the only game on television here was the first Southampton vs Portsmouth game. The coverage outside of the EPL here is shocking. It usually means waiting up until about 2-3 in the morning to watch it live but the early kickoff this Saturday means that it's at prime-time! Looks like I'll actually get some sleep this weekend.. Woohoo! Despite being round the other side of the world and going over every possibility of why Saints will win this game.... I'm still sh*ting myself knowing in less than 24 hours we could be in the EPL again or having to live through the agony of the play-offs.
Here in central China it has been over 30C for several days now and no rain for ages. It is good that the game tomorrow is on earlier (8.30pm here) and means I will get no grief for staying up late this weekend. Hard to believe the season is almost over, seems only a little while ago and the opening game against Leeds.
Buen Dia Bendit Or he could play for one the big guns in South America - Liverpool, Arsenal and Everton!! Of the three, Arsenal are the best known!! Yo espero que gagnamos (correct my Castellano as it has been five years since I have used it) Ciao
Don't worry about the play-offs. If people do there is no chance. Have to grasp the opportunity with both hands or feet! However lets be positive. I am going to enjoy the game whatever the outcome. This Saints team has been terrific and exceeded many expectations considering the backbone of the side were playing at the bottom end of League 1 in September 2010 soon after Pardew left and Adkins was still bedding in so to speak.
Great Post...i shall also be watching the match online out here in Trinidad.....managed to get to St marys 2 years ago while on holiday.Due to the time difference i shall be watching on a very small screen while at work,hopefully my boss does not get upset by the cheering....COYR

I'll be following the game from Montpellier in the S of France.... Been nervous all week. My saints flag on the wall of my office will hopefully have a "promoted" banner across it next week
Went to the World Cup in 2006 as I managed to get tickets with Trinidad and Tobago - great set of fans who know how to enjoy themselves - the only international shirt I have ever owned!
