Oh No Doctor! It's starting again....

[Barling Magna]

The expectation..... the nerves...the fears....the hopes raised......the dreams.....the palpitations.....the joy....the ecstasy....the pain....the shock.....the desolation......the anger......the fury...........the relief.......the wry smiles........this roller-coaster of lows and highs..............

My name is Barling Magna and I am a Shrimpers addict.

 

[Barry.C]

The sheer misery of driving back to kent if we lose, especially if the 4 x4 is packed with cockahoop Gill bill fanatics giving me stick . or the sheer joy of the total silence when we beat them. whilst I sing various anthems. I am watching the clock every minute now, setting off at 12.20 to be sure of getting to my favourite place on time, shrimper shop, beer, hot dog, toilet , beer, more toilet, in any order, long delays on A127 heading home, tradition of getting burgered up in Strood on way back, whilst staring at Medway tunnel closure, Cant wait !! Do it all again on Tuesday night, brilliant!

I'm with you Barling M.
Some of the worse moments are away fixtures where we are in for a point or a win and lots of full time scores are being announced....................and then comes us, a late conceded goal in the 4th added minute for some misery and a anguished "why, again, grr, refs, fergie time, subs, swear and curse".

Goodness Gracious Me!

 

[Barling Magna]

I had a dreadful dream that Southend scored first and were then mullered by the Gills.....................

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.............. this addiction is not doing me any good at all, Doctor.

And Doctor my head hurts, my throat is sore but I'd swap them for sore hands but that doesn't happen a lot as I don't get to clap a lot these games.
