Carabao Cup QF Draw | Southampton (A)

What's the seat availability look like? Me, the wife & boy don't qualify as matchday members until tomorrow morning. Got my fingers crossed.
 
737 left as of 09.10. they just opened another block up more central to behind the goal, after i'd bought in the corner cos thats all that was left.

I was considering using a Soccer Express executive coach to go to this match.
They are advertising the trip at £62.50 return,departing from Manchester at 12.30 pm and returning in the early hours of the next day.
Has anyone else on BM ever used them to get to away games, and if so what were their experiences,and would they recommend them ?
Thanks in anticipation.
(Also where do they depart from?I believe they were using somewhere near Belle Vue as a meeting point a few years ago. Is that still the case?)

Used soccer express a few times. Also been excellent I've found.

They do leave the pickup point bang on time so be early!

Used them for the FA Cup semi final against Chelsea in 2013. The coach I got on was actually Coventry City's team coach.

It was great! Full leather seats, a couple of toilets and it also had sky TV. Doing down to Wembley we watch the Newcastle - Sunderland game where Sunderland won and Di Canio was running up and down like a madman.

Edit. Departure points vary.

Sometimes it's Belle Vue or times it's the carpark near the tennis building outside the ground

I emailed them on the day I put my original post on Bluemoon,using the email address put on this thread by the cool cat .
They never got back to me at all, so I've binned the whole trip off.
It's annoying that they go to the trouble of informing Bluemoon that they are running a coach to a particular game,and then can't be arsed replying to a genuine enquiry.

My 15 year old son surprised me with flights from
Belfast , hotel and tickets for the 2 of us for this game.

Never been to Southampton.

Any tips / suggestions for pub gatherings for blues would be much appreciated. Cheers
 
This will be the match that Pep might sacrifice before the derby.

On the bench or not going. Kev (looks f*cked) + Haaland. (needs a rest) And other regular first team ayers like Rhiodri. Going to be a squad players and maybe youth players team. Southampton will put out a strong team.

The Rags have got Charlton at home, so they can rest their best players and still beat Charlton.

I go in in The Cricketers Arms, probably very few city fans but a good pub on the way.
