BLUES FANS COINCIDENCE!
Picked up a couple of gentlemen this afternoon in Chancery Lane, who wanted taking to a pub in Bethnal Green. On route they asked what team I followed. Of course I told them my team are a National League side. The mighty blues! Also adding that I travel to Newcastle on Sunday in preparation for our game at Gateshead on Monday. Sounding totally surprised, one said, they’d just been speaking to a fellow Shrimper in Ye Olde White Horse pub in St Clements’s Lane! Who too is driving up north to attend the match. Apparently the Shrimper was around mid twenties and named Conner. What’s the chances of meeting a random blues fan in a pub, then afterwords hailing a Black Cab and the driver also being a blues fan, plus both are travelling north for the game? It’s a small world!

Nice story.

Probably Conner who did the Spaces on Twitter at the height of close demise I presume?

I thought Conner too

Anyone got an update on the sale figure ?

 

[Supershrimper]

I'd sooner an update on the weather. I know Blues on Tour have gone up today on their weekender. I'm on the coach on Monday but torn between shorts or a big coat.

What's the weather like up there. Currently lovely on the Southend Riviera.

I believe you can pay on the day. As to were that is in the ground I'm no sure.

Any update on tickets sold?

Any update on tickets sold?

It would be amazing to have 2,000 Shrimpers there, however, certainly 1,600+ is a good showing.

Late change of plans mean I can no longer go tomorrow If there’s anyone who hasn’t bought a ticket yet, there’s one going spare - message me. Would rather move it on for free than it go to waste.
