I'm sure most SZ members of a certain age will have seen this video, but as we're playing Southport again today, it maybe worth another watch, even if we didn't win that one. This was the Blues team I remember so well from the first year I started watching us.

Looking like 3,250+ crowd today 700 sold in the North Bank. Pity we haven't got the whole North Bank. This would have been the ideal game to put the Southport fans in the South Upper.

Tbf they are still 700 seats available

Bald penalty areas, dogs on pitches… where’s my rose tinted glasses!?

What entrance should we be using for the North Bank?

Bonus question will it be quicker to get off at Westcliff than Southend Central?

I have a Seniors ticket I cannot now use.
Block C, row L.
No charge.

Their pier is only half the size of ours. Hopefully they'll be half as good as us on the pitch today, UTB UTS

The rear entrance from Fairfax Drive Yorkie. The route round from the car park is for away supporters only.

Yeah I was wondering that, was thinking the entrance along Fairfax?
Was supposed to be away this weekend but good cancelled late yesterday so grabbed a couple of tickets online last night for the North Bank

We can’t get in from Shakespeare Drive either then?

I know lots of people were complaining about what entrance was used and the club said they would look into it. I thought the club might include some details on the tickets or the website since they are directing a lot of people from their usual seats.

Frozen pitch looks a possibility,did I read somewhere we have now invested in heat lamps?

@Fitz @RHB There's been a bright golden haze over Roots Hall of a night time for a good few weeks now. If this one is called off because of a frozen pitch they should get their money back, and a contribution towards what is likely to be an exorbitant electicity bill!!!

OMT now please.
