Biggest Crowd Of The Season Expected

As Saints pick up steam, so do the crowds and this wont be the last time this headline will be used.

Saints are again looking at beating their top attendance this season with the visit of Brighton, despite it being a televised game and on a Sunday.

Last time out against MK Dons saw the biggest crowd so far with 21,387, that with a very poor turnout from MK Dons fans.

Brighton look set to bring at least 1,500 more than the Dons and that combined with a few more Saints fans returning to the fold should push the crowd above the 23,000 mark, in fact it could with a late surge in sales even get somewhere near the 24,630  who attended the last game against Brighton in our forst season out of the Premiership, when we won 2-1 on 2nd Jan 2006 with a late winner from Dexter Blackstock.
