Great comments from the Col U.................for me this one says it all.

Much as I hate Southend I would hate to see them go. Supporting Col U wouldn't be the same without them

If the shoe was on the other foot, I would feel exactly the same way, it is great to see the rivalry but when push comes to shove we are all part of a big football family.

Cheers you bunch
of in-breads!

Ha ha thought you guys might like to see those, given our OMB is members only, there are only a small number of you likely to see them.
The general feeling is one of sadness for you the fans, nobody wants to see their rivals go out of business, Boxing day would be rubbish :)

Come on use your loaf, you knead to get behind your club, most of you could sandwich an extra game into your busy lives. You know you are a gluten for punishment so get out your dough, wheat your turn at the food stalls, come and take the rise out of the opposition, chew the fat, you never know the club could be on a roll.

Cheers for that. We could do with some cheering up around here. :(

I'm actually not in France at the moment. I'm back in the UK until Friday, visiting family but sadly will have returned before the game against Gillingham. I'd have loved to have been there to show my support for the lads.

Unlucky Chris (Great Christian name by the way, because guess what mine is), always tough when you work away from your home club, my son feels it sometimes when something big happens to Col U. he lives in Coventry due to his work (or lack of at present) in the automotive design industry.
 
Swindon fan here, posted before but I'd just like to say good luck with everything. I know what it's like seeing your team have to go into Administration, we've been in it twice, and faced insolvency in 2007, but we came out of it and I'm sure you lot will too. Just make sure you keep the faith and get down to your next home game and give the team all the support you can. Try to forget about the off-field issues for 90mins. It's not nice to see any club in this situation, and I really mean that considering the problems we've had in the past. Keep the faith. :)

Thanks. It means a lot to know that clubs' fans have been there and come out stronger the other side.

Thanks mate, apart from the odd cretin the support from fellow clubs who have been in the same plight, and many who haven't is quite overwhelming. So a big heartfelt thanks to all.
