Saturday’s FA Cup Fourth Round tie against Crystal Palace is now sold out after a record-breaking 24 hours in Southampton’s Ticket Office.

Supporters have snapped up around 15,000 tickets since the match went on general sale yesterday morning, making this weekend’s tie the eighth successive home game to sell out.

On Monday, fans were waiting at St Mary’s before the Ticket Office opened at 9am, with club staff handing out hot beverages to supporters as they waited to secure their seats.

Saints’ ticketing hotline and online ticket store were also swamped as other supporters chose to avoid the chilly conditions on the south coast and book from the comfort of their homes and offices.

As with the third-round tie against Ipswich Town, ticket prices were slashed for this Saturday’s match – and fans have quickly taken advantage of the opportunity to give their backing to Ronald Koeman’s men as they go in search of a fourth successive win.

If you missed out, hospitality packages are still available for Saturday’s match. Places in the Saints Bar are priced at just £27, while Markus Liebherr Lounge packages are £84.
