As a Southend fan who lives near Bishop's Stortford, for those who've never been before, just to advise there is nowhere at all to drink around the ground (except in the ground itself) unless you fancy a long walk.

The Belgian Brewer is an easy walk. Decent beer too

Guess that means the cut hasn’t healed yet and he won’t be involved?

what is the best place to park our car? (For anyone who been to Bishops Stortford stadium).

You can park at the ground for £3 but arrive early or it's all around the industrial area which isn't great.

Interesting team selection, a front 3? Or Bridge playing behind the front 2 ?

It is football you follow?

Looks like might be Kev’s starting 11 for the first game of the season?

I’m a bit surprised given our lack of embargo these days that we don’t have a few more trialists floating around.

embargo is one thing, paying them if we sign them might be another.

Will be interesting to hear the formation from those there as I did wonder whether we might set up more 523 this year with the double pivot of Miley and Morton and allowing 3 from Cardwell, Waldron, Wood, Walker and Bridge up top

Are you stuck in the past?

 

[AlfaShrimper]

Does anyone have a list of the players that haven't made the team today? Obviously Taylor and Noor being 2 of them. Anyone else?

No, but our new chairman also stated we won’t have money (ala Wrexham).. stuck in the past could also refer to the Phil Brown school of thinking… and look where that got us.

Waldron?
