Official Match Thread Southend United 1-1 Stockport

interesting to hear what the east has ro say. From the West it looked a nailed on red. One of the rare decisions Kettle got right. Great equalizer. Francis had a stinker (and I'm a big fan). Revell had a decent game, a few misplaced touches but no complaints. Hard to pick a mom but second half wasn't great before the sending off. I'll take a point.

Totally agree with the red card, again from my view in the west stand so i am prepared to be corrected by anyone in the east. However, at least we werent 3-1 up and lost 4-3 a la ewes :D
 
Take a point when all is said and done, though the sending off makes me feel grateful for a point gained rather than annoyed at two lost. Can't really comment on the send off from the West but will be interested to see the replays.

Francis was awful today - and like others I am usually a fan. Today it just didn't work out for him. It merely underlines the lack of cover at the back as I am sure he'd have been off if we had someone who could play RB on the bench.

Atmosphere was dead. What happened to the Blue Voice?
 
Was in East Blacks so almost level with the incident, and I hate to say it but it was a definite red. Whether Harding won the ball, lost his footing, or simply didn't mean it, it doesn't matter. A two-footed challenge is a straight dismissal - he, like all of us, know the laws of the game. A real shame as Harding was having an excellent game. Just writing the report on Longpier now.

Far too casual at the back, Didn't think Betsy was at his best today either.

It wasn't two feet, his other leg was tucked in behind him.
 
Just got home and im gutted not to have won, we needed to kill the game off earlier. Stockport looked useful, but it took a wonder goal to pull them level. Francis was bloody awful, didnt seem bothered, and I cant tolerate that.

Ref had a terrible match too. Real shame we could not keep the run going!!

Chaps, with regards this 'wonder goal' for them, did Federici have a chance?

Absolutely not. The guy turned and smashed an excellent strike via the underside of the bar and into the top corner - one of the best individual goals at the Hall - from a visiting side - for some time.

Well I can agree on that point, been a while since someone scored a corker against us at home.
 
Did anyone else notice Uncle Ron on the pitch at the end, breaking free of Brush's weak restraint, to argue the colour of the card with Mr. Kettle?
 
From my position in the East Blacks it didn't look two-footed or a red. he seemed to win the ball too. The moment the ref blew for the foul, I knew Harding was going off.
