There would no space for anything else if we did.

Just rung the club pitch is fine and no pitch inspection

with all respect isn’t that the refs decision not the clubs?

 

[superblue24]

58 votes (at time of writing) for win or draw…. I do admire the optimism

And it’s cold too giving we are in August

And I'm wearing a long sleeve navy T shirt underneath my new home shirt. A bit girly, but there you go.

This will be my first game for 14 years. I'll be in the East Stand with my Japanese wife and three boys. What an introduction to the Shrimpers! I hope they are not disappointed with the game and result. Say hello if you notice us

Can’t wait to get reacquainted with the leaks, the smell of fox **** and the dodgy burgers. I’m going for a 0-2 loss. Wonder if my e-tickets will work on the turnstiles. I’m betting no.

Come on you blue boys!

Fella down the blue boar called Joe. Maybe he had one too many but he seemed kosher.

Birthday present ?

It wouldn't surprise me if they both start.
