Southampton fans coming out today

The ones I met in the pub pre match were fine.

Saw a couple of scuffles on the way back to Wembley Central, City fans giving it back.

My experience of clubs fans like this is that their local rivals give them a good kicking on a regular basis(Pompey)so they have an inferority complex.

I like to think that City fans behave well when outnumbering other fans but unfortunately saw loads giving it Arsensl fans last week, that was embarassing.

They could be back at Wembley next month if they progress in the play-offs - if so I hope they play Millwall and the two sets of fans fight each other all they want.

Hopefully they'll beat Millwall at Wembley. Might be a bit quieter on the way out.

Can confirm scuffles heading back to Wembley Central, and indeed outside the stadium, going through their end, outside.

Loads of intimidating , taunting, baiting, provoking and actually attacking isolated and heavily outnumbered City Fans.

Absolute arseholes !

Whilst waiting on the platform, for train to Watford, opposite platform full of them shouting abuse, and "can we have some of your money, as we are poor?"
When their train (into London) pulled in, they started throwing (mainly) bottles across the track at the City fans, and once they were inside their train, proceeded to confirm my previous comment (re arseholes) by "mooning" at the City fans on the opposite platform.

Maybe funny to some, but simply confirmed, that they were absolute arseholes and nothing else.

Worst opposition fans i've ever encountered at Wembley, and i've been to pretty much all of our recent Wembley visits

Yep, I was on one of those trains on that platform going back into London from Central having been in that scrum before even getting inside the station. Wasn’t great tbh, I’d say it was 80% Southampton supporters.
Unlike a final when half the fans leave on the whistle and half mostly wait for the trophy lift etc, yesterday with everyone piling out at the same time, after a late winner, made it a bit toxic. Most of them were fine but there were a few groups who couldn’t handle it.

What a fabulous last quarter of the match that was yesterday though, absolutely loved it.

Weird fuckers. Always think they are a missing link.
Odd.

Not that you're generalising, or anything?

I was just about to post how surprised I was to read this thread - and that it's a shame that some City fans will now forever despise all things Southampton as a result of these thugs' behaviour.

Then I read yours.

Their biggest game in 50 years, not even our biggest in the last 50 days, infact, not even our second biggest. So that should tell you everything about what to expect. Anybody thinking or expecting we'd be up for it as much as them is a moron, they were always going to be louder than us today.

I was disappointed with their fans tbh. Their song repertoire consisted of marching in, "yellows" and telling us how shit our fans were, that was it. If that was our biggest game in 50 years and thats all we could come up with, i'd be majorly disappointed with our fanbase. Comical how long it took the majority to realise the offside goal was offside. Im sure some were still celebrating after we had restarted play.

In some of the banter leading up to the match, I was regularly reminded that they did actually reach the final a mere 23 years ago.
 
Southampton’s fans behaviour. City fan. It was like getting a chance to sleep with your neighbours wife who you’ve always fancied, and just before you do that her husband bursts into the bedroom and start shouting at you and throwing punches. :-)

A bigger following.(where were you when you were shit?)
More local support.
All the Southampton loons out for a trip to Wembley.
Not far to travel.
A hot and sunny day.
On the beer all day.
A semi-final win snatched away from them in a few minutes at the end of the match.
Angry, disappointed, mad, infuriated, looking for trouble, etc.
Now fuck off back to the Championship, you part-time, soft, Southern cunts!
Let’s see how big and mouthy you are at the Etihad next season if Southampton get promoted to the PL?

Millwall get to Wembley they kick fuck out of each other, own fans
 
After on the way back to Wembley Park, a lot of them were singing “we support our local team” and “you only live round the corner”… which I found a bit odd

Is this seriously how our fanbase is thought of these days?

I would have thought the small turnout proved that this definitely is not the case

I called out a couple of them before the game singing the “round the corner” shit. Were they mistaking us for a team that plays in red just outside of Manchester?

It was the equivalent of being at school and finding out the unpopular lad, who you never knew existed, never gave a second thought about had spent years of his life hating you.

Strange club, keep going about there great fans yesterday but they could only muster 17k for the tie against Leicester, in the earlier rounds. Calling others plastic, but turning up for a semi final but never bothering for your run of the mill matches is the very definition of plastic.

Their fans were ok but only had one song and were quiet for long periods. We were better in the second half. They were nowhere near as good as Palace last year or Watford when they lost 6-0.
