Saints have just sold their 10,000th Season Ticket for the new campaign as the record breaking surge continues...

The arrival of new owner Markus Liebherr has given fans on the south coast something to smile about this summer and Season Ticket sales have since been boosted further by the appointment of new manager Alan Pardew.

The Club was already delighted to announce on Monday that the number of season tickets sold so far had already exceeded the total number sold for last year, but today's fantastic new milestone has given everyone yet another reason to be cheerful!

The stage looks set for a fantastic season of football in the 2009/10 campaign, and the Southampton team will be backed in force every time they turn out at St. Mary's. 

The deadline for existing season ticket holders wishing to renew their seats for the 2009/10 campaign is this Friday (31st July) by 5pm but, with 1 in 5 season tickets also being bought by fans who have not had one before, it's certainly not too late to be a part of the exiting new era at St. Mary's.

Chief Operating Officer Andy Oldknow thanked supporters for the commitment they have shown so far, as the countdown to the big-kick off against Millwall on August 8th continues.

"We are extremely impressed with the response that fans have shown since Markus Liebherr's arrival and we are delighted to have broken through the 10,000 season ticket barrier.

"This is another fantastic demonstration of our supporter's optimism about the future of the club and an incredible milestone to have reached in such a short ammount of time," he said.
