Saints start at Man City

Saints start at Man City
Saints will kick off their 2012/13 Barclays Premier League season away to champions Manchester City.
The club have been handed a baptism of fire on their return to the top flight, with a visit to the Etihad Stadium on August 18, although that date could be changed if the game is picked for television.
Saints’ first home game is against Wigan, on August 25.
That is followed by two daunting fixtures, firstly at home to Manchester United, before they travel to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal.
Saints will finish their season at home to Stoke on May 19.
Other highlights include a first reunion with former manager Alan Pardew, as Newcastle are scheduled to visit St Mary’s on November 24, before the return game on February 23.
Saints are away to Fulham for the traditional Boxing Day fixture, while New Year’s Day sees them at home to Arsenal.
Saints will visit Anfield on December 1, while they will travel to Champions League winners Chelsea on December 15.
The trip to Old Trafford is scheduled for January 29.

April-May fixtures not a bad run-in in it seems?
The opening few are going to be tough, but then again if you want to be in the premier league that's what you must get used to.
A year ago we were all wondering how we would fair up against the Championship teams. It's just the same now.
Maybe a year from now we will be wondering what it will be like playing in the Champions League. Dream on, but you have to have faith, and believe.
We are in this league on merit, never forget that.

They've also got Plymouth in the first round of the Capita One Cup before that. There's going to be some epic drama on the South Coast this August. (Assuming they can get 11 players together.)

Man City reduced our ticket allocation for the last game at Maine Road - we should remind the Prem League of that and ask for a bigger allocation for this start. Good time to play a big club before they really get rolling!

For those that may remember, a few of us walked to Wembley for the JPT, raising a goodly amount of cash en route. Who fancies a stroll from SMS to "Citeh" for a bit of Charity.....
Or for those that don't you could always join the Pompey team as they walk from Skatesville to Bournemouth, not that charity will be on their agenda, more the fact that no one can afford a team bus.

Difficult to get early momentum - last year's top three in our first four matches - but might be better to get these games in early before the big guns settle.
With the huge new TV cash deal coming into effect 2013/14 (when the bottom team will reportedly get more cash than Man City got as Champions last season) the financial gap between the Prem and the rest will get ever wider - so survival in 2012/13 is vital for the long term.
We look in reasonable shape striker-wise, but hopefully we'll get some news soon about much needed strengthening in midfield/defence.
Back to the menu - the optimist in me sees a delicious doughnut; the pessimist sees the hole. This year my lucky Buddha will be getting grovelling attention from 1st July latest.

Hopefully most of the Man City players will still be knackered from the Euro's, the run in looks really as well, from 30th March (Chelsea) I think we can get quite a few wins.

It comes to something when it's better to plan for the long-haul away trips because it's easier to get tickets.
Nothing worse than planning or even booking a trip, then realising it's going to be too hard to get tickets or the match has been rescheduled.
Anyone know the long-range weather forcast for Newcastle next February?

Falling Down Park< St Marys
Benjani< Lambert
Markus Liebherr (RIP) < ??
Michael Appleton < Nigel Adkins
Not to mention Saints have a world class training ground, youth academy and no debt.
I think that all speak for itself 'Pompey Phil', enjoy encounters at Hartlepool, Stevenage and the might of Preston North End

It's a bit like in The Matrix when Agent Smith explains to Neil (or whatever Keanu Reeves' character is called) that the first matrix was rejected by mankind because it was so nice and pleasant that people got bored and couldn't handle it.
Their passing and movement off the ball are how I would LOVE to see us playing.
Barca are also one of the most hard working teams you will see. I know they normally have he ball, but look at how they close teams down when they don't have it, quickly getting the ball back.
Remember their passing game is designed to move defences out of position for the killer through ball.
If we become only half as good as Barca, we will become Premier League Champions.

LeTissier also expects Southampton to add to their squad during the summer.
"I'm sure Nigel Adkins will be looking to strengthen, there's no denying that.
"I bumped into him over the weekend and he said there are some irons in the fire and he hopes we'll have some news in the next couple of weeks."

Nicola Cortese is about to put in a bid for portsmouth that will eclipse Chainrai's and the Trust's.
The plan is for you to be run as a Southampton B side so that our youngsters can gain vital first team experience. This does mean a rebranding though which envolves a name change to Solent Saints, the ground to be called The Dell and obviously Red and White stripes will be worn. The only bad news for you lot is you wont be able to gain promotion from league 1.

We stuffed them 6-3 in 1996/7 with Egil Ostenstad bagging 3 (later changed to 2 because some Manure muppet touched one on it's way into the net), Eyal Berkovic got 2 and then there was that deft Le God lob over Peter Schmeichel.
The previous season (I think), we had led them 3-0 at half time and Alex blamed the score on their grey (third-choice) shirts. So, they changed them and, taking just the second half, promptly thrashed us 1-0.
What was funny about it was that it happened during the period when their marketing had reached new bounds of exploitation and they were turning out new over-priced kits as fashion statements every six months.
As one commentator said at the time, 'it's one thing thrusting a new kit on us every half a season, but every half a match is something else.'

See your back again Phil to supply us with more of your intellectual opinions.
I see on another of your slightly more rational posts that you like the idea of you playing
Bournemouth, we have got at least that in common.
Also you appear not to be too keen on the operation of the Premier league.
Lucky for you and us, that you lot are not in it to polute it further.
Yeh, there are others , they will be found out.
Maybe, you may be playing them also, soon.
COYR
Where are they now, some sunday beer league?
Pompey Phil your rants have become tiresome and boring so why don't you go and clean some pigeon poop off of that crappy so called stadium of yours.
Goodbye Portsmouth and good riddance!
let's hope they enjoy history because very soon that's all they will be.
and in 10 years time when the next generation of kids are becoming interested in football and enquire why can't they watch premier league football like southampton,brighton bournemouth and salisbury. what lies will you tell them?
and before you say it. the other 3 teams are not premier league, but they do have a future and for them anything is still possible

I reckon I'll be able to make ManCity, ManU and Arsenal. Looks like it's going to be a good trip home.
It comes to something when it's better to plan for the long-haul away trips because it's easier to get tickets.
Nothing worse than planning or even booking a trip, then realising it's going to be too hard to get tickets or the match has been rescheduled.
Anyone know the long-range weather forcast for Newcastle next February?

I remember once upon a time when a set of premier league poopey fans were gloating about being in the premier league when we were where you are now. I seem to recal a cup tie in which a league one saints team were beaten 4-1. I think that scoreline may seem slightly less funny when you get beaten in your Shitehole by the same margin by the mightly Bournemouth. Put your time and effort into a more worthwhile cause ie holding a cakesale or sponsored silence to raise money to ensure that Poopey can afford to have a team to at least make it to the field on that Fcucking funny day.

I just hope that (as others have hinted), they (Sky and co) don't decide to move it to a 5pm kick off on the Sunday. And, if they do, fans get plenty of notice.
It started happening with Boro at the end of last season and things can only be worse this year.
Hopefully see you in Newcastle.

Hope you are able to sort your transport arrangements out and enjoy the Premiership, the Saints deserve it, always been my 2nd team even after over 45 years of suffering with MCFC, think we may have turned the corner now ;-) . Good luck!!
"a visit to the Etihad Stadium on August 18, although that date could be changed if the game is picked for television". Now that summarises in a nutshell why this season is going to be a nightmare for us true supporters. I love being in the Premier League, I love all the TV money coming to our club, but we don't matter any more. To travel affordably to Manchester I need to book my train ticket in advance. What time should I travel? Will the game kick off at 3pm or 12.30, or 5.30? OK, make long weekend of it (plenty to see and do in Manchester, after all), and book a hotel for Friday night and Saturday night. Then what if the game is rescheduled to Sunday or to Monday night? The last 2 years have been marvellous but I don't think I'll be at many away games this season.

Man City reduced our ticket allocation for the last game at Maine Road - we should remind the Prem League of that and ask for a bigger allocation for this start. Good time to play a big club before they really get rolling!
MCFC was fined heavily and ordered to allow Saints fans in for half price for the next game at City - which incidently was at the new City of Manchester stadium (as it was called then).
I am a born and bred City fan and I was very unimpressed that my club treated another club with such disdain. The last game of the season was in fact a wash out. The expected large number of home fans didn't turn out for the last ever game at Maine Road. Oasis were supposed to have been there as part of the celebrations (big deal unless you particularly like Oasis!) I'm not sure about this but I believe that City didn't win the game. Can anybody confirm that?
