SAINTS will be backed by their first full house of the season in their massive final day game with Sheffield United on Sunday.
The club have one last chance to try and avoid relegation to League One while United will be hoping for a win to try to squeeze into the play-offs.
The Blades had sold out their allocation of 3,200 tickets and Saints fans have responded by snapping up all the remaining tickets for their first sell-out at St Mary's since the final game of last season against Southend.
Chairman of the Saints Trust, Nick Illingsworth, said: "It's good to see that there will be a full house roaring us on.
"It's got to help having everyone behind them."

Having read and heard Nick, I do consider him best qualified. I may not always agree with what he says, but he makes his point clearly. Rather than criticise him, who would you consider more qualified, and would have the support of all the fans? It is easy to be negative and criticise, but more difficult to make a positive contribution! I have checked through what I have written, and cannot see where I have done any name calling!

I had not realised my tones were condescending, but glad to hear I get my opinions across - surely that is what we are on here for. I wish I could return the compliment! You say that 'fans use him because he puts himself forward'! To me, that indicates that they want him to speak on their behalf! They probably do so, because he is articulate, and they consider him to be the best person to put forward their views and opinions, which is what I said!

Saint wrote:I apologise for suggesting your name was Yew Pratt, but thought you would qualify for the title when you First accused me of being Nick! So you claim you never said the fans use him (Nick). Take a look at your post at 8.07pm Friday where you said, \'They (the fans) use him because he puts himself forward to massage his ego, and all other viewers get a laugh at our expense\'! \'THE FOOTBALLING NATION LAUGHS AT THIS BLOKE\'! Don\'t you think that is a wee bit of an exaggeration? Do you really think they have even heard of him in Manchester of Liverpool? If you do, then may I suggest that it is YOU that is massaging Nick\'s ego! He would be thrilled to bits to know that he is known throughout the land! I don\'t see Nick through any type of glasses. I see a person who wants the best for the club that he supports. Does everything within his power to work for the good of the club, and I also see a person who, by wanting to do what is best for his club, gets criticised by people who also claim to be supporters of the club, but are unwilling to do anything but whinge! So you consider I have Nick\'s sarcastic/condescend ing wit! May I ask who is \'name calling\' now? Who says that Nick is not a good image for the club, other than you? I have not noted any posts on here that support that claim! Love him of loathe him, he does speak for and represent a number of fans! Whether you agree with them or not, is your decision, that is what is called democracy! You say \'He may be a nice guy, and I never said anything else, even if you imply I have.\' So who was it said that I had his (Nicks\'s) sarcastic/condescend ing wit? Was that supposed to be flattery? You see, when you say things, then contradict yourself, that makes you a bigger figure of fun than you claim that Nick is!Robin Hood wrote:Name calling = oriental yew pratt I never said the fans use him, you said the media use him, and I gave you a reason for this, which you do not like.

You won't get to Europe through your league position so the pressure on you at Wembley will be immense and as the underdogs, Cardiff have nothing to lose. I think you will end up with f**k all. Hopefully we'll have the memory of our late escape from the jaws of disaster to sustain us through the summer.
