    Sounds like you don't want to spill the beans....

    I didn't want to point the loophole out in case someone from the club reads this and closes it <laugh>; but an ST holder who attends the away Israeli game, is gauranteed a ticket to Sparta away. So what's to stop someone buying a Haap al Watsit ticket for £23 and not actually going, just to qualify for Prague?

    I would consider going to Israel (never been) but can't get the time off work.

    The way I read it, you have to collect your ticket before it counts to your quota. Hence you had to collect the Midjtaelland tickets to qualify, not just buy them.

    "Please note, tickets will not be issued at the point of purchase and will instead need to be collected in Be’er Sheva on the day of the game, on production of the necessary photographic ID." http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/arti...er-sheva-vs-southampton-29092016-3282427.aspx

    "Please note, supporters who failed to collect their match ticket for the games in Denmark or Israel will have the credit for that fixture removed from their account." http://www.saintsfc.co.uk/news/arti...ta-praha-vs-southampton-24112016-3306226.aspx

    The sooner we get three points on the board the better. I don't care about top ten this year, if we look safe, balls out in all the cup competitions will do me.
    The Swansea game feels like a weight around my neck, and its very distracting. A fluid performance tonight really would be a massive boast going into Sundays game.

    Perhaps I'm not too great at this bantz stuff as when I attempted to gloat about Europa to Everton and Liverpool fans they all fell about laughing that Saints saw it as a positive and that showed how small time we are

    I don't bother gloating about it to them as they probably don't give a ****.

    Yeah if anything they are probably happy not to be in Europa as it means they can give top 4 a real go. For them Europa is failure, for us it is a huge achievement and there lies the difference

    Good. They will still be strong, but a little less cohesion will make it a very interesting tie. We'll probably play the kids anyway! <laugh>

    Liverpool hated it so much they battled through to final last season... I bet also their fans hated the thought of winning it and playing champions league football this season...

    Bailly down injured, Fonte starts twitching.

    Nice to see the lesser spotted Morgan.

    Dundalk magnificent so far. Part time team and they look every bit as good as AZ. O Donnell imperious in the middle and Horgan is a real danger. Vlaar is having a tough time. Lucky to be level though as AZ had a goal wrongly chalked off for offside. If they are as good in the second half a result is there for them an a great start to the night before Saints do the business

    Perhaps this could be a great night for Israeli football. Zenit losing in Tel Aviv. Hopefully Inter lose against the Israeli team in our group later.
