    Nice! Congrats!! I got through a couple of times and so did other people I know, but the page after the page you put in the details wouldn't load for any of us. Frustrating but just how it goes. Not sure If we'll try in the resale yet or not since theres around 30 of us trying. Might just do a different festival instead.

    Got a good feeling about Saints today though.

    30 people trying as well? There was only 6 of us.

    I got through within a couple of minutes, got all the details and then it crashed and I didn’t get close after that.

    Me too! Hoping for some Boufal magic.

    Yep! Third year we've not gotten tickets with loads of us trying each time. 2.4million people are registered to get tickets. Theres something like 200,000 tickets so if you get tickets you're pretty lucky! I've been twice before so I can't really complain.

    But yes...Saints. I'll take some Boufal magic too please!

    I’ve heard you can apply for jobs working there, on the recycling team. Then don’t turn up for work, you still pay the same amount for your ticket but you are guaranteed a ticket. You do however get blacklisted from working there forever

    Can’t argue with that but we do need points and I’ll settle for points whatever the performance.

    I found the Echo report on Lampard’s pre-match comments quite interesting. He said something along the lines that ‘they’ (Saints) can never be predicted how they’ll play so Chelsea have to be prepared for many options etc!! Just lately I’ve been wondering if the same thoughts are in our changing rooms just before kickoff?

    Don't get me wrong if you offered me a boring performance whereby we were lucky to get a point, I'd take that over a brilliant display where we ended up losing.

    Can't argue with the team he's put out today.

    Well, until Yoshida pulls up injured and Boufal replaces him anyway.

    This isn't a criticism, merely an observation.

    It is strange that the general consensus is that this is a better line up than we have seen recently and it also happens to be our settled XI from last season.

    Kind of makes the transfer window look a bit pointless! (Acknowledgement that Djenepo is injured of course)

    Saying that though, I've never liked the look of Ralph's two-striker formation. Expecting the midfield battle to be firmly won by Kante today. Jorginho can probably afford to just stroll around with his hands in his pockets.

    Bit late with the line-up, I see. Odd why they bother to put the keeper in the right position when the rest of the team is announced in squad numbers.
