Season Ticket prices are out - published on the website. No mention of what the increase, if any is - anyone know?

Prices are also on the site, looks like a 4% increase for me

I worked out for centre seating (non-premium) it worked out about £35 a game for me. Not good but not bad either. All depends on what our ambitions are for next season and who we sell/sign/promote as to whether or not it's value for money.

Hi,
Just read that Morgan schniderlin wants us to keep important players and that summer is a big part of our progress, this sounds like everyone wants everyone to stay and everyone wants to stay which is obviously good news

Also read that we want fabianski, I'm not sure about him, seems good at times but on and off.

And finally I don't think potchetino will leave he has a project here and he will wants to achieve his goal!

The main problem we're going to have this summer is any of the large clubs are going to want our players when we enter negotiations for someone. Fabianski would be a good back-up goalkeeper perhaps could overtake Boruc even, but Arsenal will surely try to take one of our youngsters in return. The only sort of trade deal I think most Saints supporters would accept is Shaw for Lukaku with Chelsea. This would be a real coup but my concern straight away would be his wages and commitment to the long term goal of European football, which we cannot promise him yet. Realistically our best bet will be to pick up a player or two from the teams which get relegated. Then look towards Europe for other targets.

Fabianski available on a free, no need to negotiate with Arsenal (I think that's right anyway)

It's a good positive thing to say, sounds like they all want to keep improving together, he wants 4-5 signing as we do lack depth sometimes, I sort of agree but I think some will come from the academy as 5 signings will be to many, a GK is a must but I don't think Fabianski is the answer, I'd rather someone like Forster who's an up and coming keeper who's to good to be stay in the SPL. I think 5 players should be GK, CB, LB, AM and Striker, we'll get Taggart in at LB, probably an AM from the academy in McQueen, Rowe or Sinclair, we'll see more from Gallagher and Reed to next year, then sign the others! Stephens sounds like he's doing well out on loan, so he's one to watch
