Decent following from the south coast on Saturday.

Very surprised by that, they've always had a poo poo away following so thought there'd be about 500max coming here especially with their bad form, good on em.

Both clubs deserve better than we are getting at the moment and both clubs have a lot of fans who have stuck with them.

This has all the makings of a truly awful game so impressive stuff from Southampton fans just like it was impressive stuff from our fans on Saturday with the numbers we took.

On way back from Hartlepool I said we could see close to 26,000 for this game but after last 3 games we'll be lucky to get anywhere near 20,000.

Most likely 18,500...

I remember back in the day we played Southampton on a Sunday in an F. A Cup 5/6 round tie. The game was screened on TV (way before SKY) but they still brought near 15000 fans, think there was around 41000 there. Score 0-0

I won't mention the replay.

Considering the distance and their lack of goals recently that is a pretty decent following.

I agree ^^

So how many can we expect them to bring and exploit with food and drink sales perhaps we could revert back to keeping away fans locked in after the match for a while to generate more sales. Bills to pay and all that.
