Tremendous fight back and magnificent result.

But I had a steward sitting one row in front of me, facing me for most of the game, and I swear he was watching my facial expressions intently whenever Brentford did something to applaud.

I was in the equivalent of New Road, one row from the front, if you assume our supporters were in the Ealing Road end. Brentford fans were being thrown out behind me thoughout the match, especially when we scored.

It was all I could do to try to keep a neutral expression when our second went in. A bizarre experience. All in all though, I was glad I was there

I still think it was so bad that Bees fans were ejected or sat on hands durung that game. The away end was banging after the first goal as belief went through us all. Noit much I know but I hope our noise and pee take helped the silent ones enjoy it a bit. :sorted:

Yeah right Southampton , if you were that fooking good you would have done it yesterday. The balance swings in our favour now ;)

Soton may be sh1te and we may end up playing them next year but do not underestimate this result. Normally premiersh1t teams stick out their reserves and they still beat us 4.0, this was their first team.
when they go down I bet the majority of the players from yesterday will sign for other premiership sides next year. We have proved that a lot of our players are more than capable of playing at a higher level, I have had a lump in throat all day watching match of the day and sky updates..fantastic, from 2.0 down as well!

Sitting in the home end, right behind the goal with a crap view, can't say I enjoyed the match as much as I should have done. Was torture staying silent whilst watching the opposite end go bonkers, especially when the goals went in. But - doesn't matter - I was there, had to be there, and will let out all my pent up singing for the replay.

Oh yeah colossal thanks to Leicester Bee for sorting me with a ticket :sorted:

A great cup tie at St Mary's saw League One Brentford come from two goals down to earn a replay against Southampton. The Saints were not at their best and The Bees could easily have won it in the second half.

If we don't get our replay on TV after that then there's no justice in the world :D

Fair play and top marks to Saints' fans Observer and saintmuzzy for their kind comments on this thread.

It's very disappointing, though, that things have gone very quiet from Um Pahars and saintsforever, who both took great delight in posting messages on this site during the week when the ticket fiasco was going on :fishing:

Have we perhaps heard the last from them???
 

Saints Match Reports..

is there a southampton equivalent to the gpg and if so what is the adress plz?
 

Saints Match Reports..

from the saints site

some of them were unbiased

fair play to him

2-0 up and we were cruising you could see the difference, no disrespect to brentford.

;) But as soon as Brentford made it 2-1 our midfield went missing, mainly due to the long ball as usual, due to a 6'7" striker. On saturday crouch didn't have one of his better days yet we kept pumping the ball up the field looking for the nod on. Yeah it worked some of the time BUT NOT all of the time. We didn't pass the ball to midfield and have a go from there not once!

Got to mention the Brentford fans were LOUD and PROUD even at 2-0 down! made saints fan look very quiet indeed. :sorted:

Not sure I have ever been quite so proud to be a Bees supporter. was a superb experience to be there yesterday (thanks to Keith for getting me a ticket) and like someone posted earlier only eclipsed by the birth of my kids. headline game on match of the day (can anyone remember this ever happening before) and when Sodje's goal went in they panned up to the Bees crowd and you suddenly realised just what a presence we had there. QPR...gone Fulham...gone Chelsea...gone. Odds on Bees being the last team from West London left in the cup. :D rofl :D
 

Saints Match Reports..

Finally made it back home to Manchester after crashing at parents yesterday.

Not much more to add really! Brilliant away day!!!

I loved the song "you've done very well, you've done very well, etc etc" to the saints fans!! Plastic scummers.
 

Saints Match Reports..

Just got to see the highlights on Sky news.

Rankins goal was superb. :sorted:

Sodje goal wasn't half bad either. ;)

Rednaps report at the end was pretty fair in my view, he was naturally disappointed in his premiership team not beating a div 1. team after being 2 - 0 up. Can't blame him really.

Nice session from Sky on the "ticket fiasco" and the "beam back" game. Some harsh (but warranted) comments from Season Ticket holders attending the beam back game instead of the real game. :eek:

Overall, very proud to see all this "buzz" from the bees.

Thanks Martin. We owe it all to you. :sorted:
 

Saints Match Reports..

Two questions :

1. Did Paul Smith get a nice welcome from the Bees Fans.

2. What did Martin Allen get up to with the Bees fans after the game?
 

Saints Match Reports..

1. Yes. He got a very generous round of applause as he took his position in goal at the Bees end at the start of the second half. Boos at the beamback though apparently. I heard Terry Evans was there - not sure if he was booing though.

2. Just a bit of orchestrated cheerleading before running down the tunnel.
