Pre-Match Thread AFC Fylde v Southend United, Tuesday 17th September K/O 7:45pm

[Smiffy]

One for the absolute hardcore. Two days off work as well for most. Salute every single one of you that makes that trip. It doesn’t come much more difficult than that.

Hope this gives enough time for Delay Repay to hit the club’s account!

Gutted. Made the journey last week but with work commitments already in place this is too short notice for us. Shame it couldnt have been played on a spare Saturday subject to cup runs etc

It could be worse, could be in winter.

 

[It'sGrimUpNorth]

But that is very short notice.

But that is very short notice.

If it’s like the EFL it has to be the first available date.

Who is this Flyde team ?

 

[Fitz]

I would be impressed if we take 150 to this! I went last year….but that is mad distance on a Tuesday night and for anybody that works would be 2 days off,

 

[Knights In White Satin]

Just waiting on coach times, been a while since I've done a long trip on a Tuesday night

Our already stretched squad could have done without this one being shoe-horned in.

Flying back home September 14th after making the journey up to Fylde September 1st. So disappointed
to miss out again. However, was at Oldham game and under the circumstances was very impressed with our effort, commitment and performance. Looking for the same against Eastleigh. Will be going back confident that what ever the challenge we might face this season, we'll be up for it as a team and have full confidence in the coaching staff, Looking forward to the new journey our club is on, even if we find ourself in this league for a while longer. What a dump the Oldham stadium is. Might be just as bad at Root's Hall. No burgers and run out of sausage rolls before the game even started.

Can’t see the players getting any rest time that week fylde on Tuesday probably arriving back in Southend early hours of Wednesday then Solihull away again on Saturday

This could be the longest pre match thread ever.

Blackpool and Preston both playing at home…what with the 2,000 we’ll take to Fylde the local police will have a busy evening…

 

[Shrimpergonzo]

All votes reset from original poll due to arrivals, departures and injuries from original game

So work sorted and coach booked. Need more though as BOT coach needs filling up.

Would have done this but can't make the coach time, earliest I can finish work is 12 and can't legally make it from West Thurrock to the Watermill or Pitsea and find suitable parking in the 10/15 minutes

Maybe have a word with Wino and see if there is a services on route that you could drive to and meet the coach although assume there are parking restrictions these days. I used to do it quite a lot in the old days
