You left it late. Got my ticket ages ago. This game is UNMISSABLE. :)

I don't actually get paid until Monday but managed to borrow some money today to get mine. Will be the biggest game of the season so far and as you say, unmissable.
 
23rd November 1996, 19 years ago today, a date all Saints fans should look back on with pride?
It was the day when that mercurial talent Ali Dia graced the sacred Dell turf, his presense although fleeting, will never be forgotten.
Seems like yesterday.

Clasie distances himself from Virgil's claim that he will be a better player than Morgan. Also adds that he still isn't fit enough for the PL, but hopes to be 100% soon.

The lad is going to be the business for us. It made me laugh/annoyed there were people doubting it after half a game he got injured in and then his first couple of cameo appearances. Ridiculous expectation and understanding of the game.

He will fly.

Long saying how pleased he was to get a chance to play for Ireland on such an important night. Said he knows Ron was surprised, but he felt fit. Says on Saturday the team weren't tired after the international break, but they didn't get the rub of the green.

I suppose from our point of view (as he played 40 mins for Ireland without injury) he is nearer to being fully match fit for us against City.
 
We've had good players over the years...just not enough all at the same time. Wouldn't mind Svensson and Pahars back (in their pomp) and I would love to see Matty back and knocked into shape by Ron (Le God has said himself that he would be fitter today than back then, because he would have to be).
