Official Match Thread FA Cup Southend United vs Morcambe

[Barling Magna]

Wright misses by an inch with a good header from a Morecambe corner. We need to be careful here....

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Corner Morecambe..........headed just wide..........we've been under pressure for the last ten minutes.

 

[Barling Magna]

Great defending by Prosser, heading away from a dangerous position. Rain now starting, adding to the strong wind which is in the Blues' favour this half....

 

[Barling Magna]

Morecambe are looking much stronger now. With the assistance of the strong wind in the second half this could be a difficult challenge; must ensure that Morecambe don't score before half-time....

 

[Barling Magna]

Straker's shot deflected wide....

 

[Barling Magna]

Morecambe free-kick in a dangerous position......

 

[Barling Magna]

[Barling Magna]

Now a corner to Southend.... but the half-time whistle blows. Phew!!

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Dangerous free-kick Morecambe......headed behind for a corner from, who else..........Straker! Cleared......break corner but no time...........half-time whistled. 0-2

 

[Ricey]

We need to awake and alive to it straight from the second half kick off!

 

[Maroon Blue]

Great half Blues, backs to the wall second half with them having the wind blowing in their favour. Fancy us for a third on the break! nice and early please to put the game to bed.

 

[amsemp]

Would love to see us go and get a nice early goal at the start of the first half. Really get the game out of reach for them. Bogey team? Naaa. We're Sir Alex's bogey team, that's about it :winking:

 

[Shrimper]

Gateshead 2-0 up over Oxford. What would the betting be we got them away next round if we went through?
