The State of Roots Hall

[Ricey]

Hats off to everyone involved with the clean up. Great job to all that used their spare time to do something they shouldn’t have to be doing!

Looks more like a torture chamber

Had a look in the dressing room’s there as bad as those seats very depressing

Hooray.. she wins a vote.. oh, wait

Spoke to herself today.
Top lady,
She is quite passionate about the SUFC, and that she could not wait to watch the SUFC at an away ground, and be real hard core.
And she meant it, they were words from the heart, not just politician words,

What condition is the pitch in?

Managed to take a picture of it but although it looks good on closer inspection it’s not that good

Well done everyone that came to tidy up roots hall. It was lovely to see so many passionate supporters. Lots of older fans who had great stories of their first visit to roots hall. I have memories of standing in the south bank when it was just terracing in the late sixties with my dad. Spent four hours cleaning the seating in that stand today.

Pleasure to meet a few today and dive in to the drainage outside the west entrance. We thought we caught Martin hiding behind the wall but alas, it was just a decomposing dead rat.

Up the blues

Knowing Ron he'll go down and wipe the board just to be vindictive

Was only there for an hour this morning but thought the same thing. The closer I got the worse it looked.

I think it was @Medway Blue who said to me, he thought this must have been how people got through wars once.( of course there is no comparison) The coming together of people with only one cause in mind, to save something so close to their heart.

I understood what he meant today with such fantastic spirit amongst the fans. You are all a credit to SUFC,

Don’t worry S he’s probably forgot how to get there, and besides we have all seen it.UTB

This is what Ron has never understood.

He is just the supposed custodian of our wonderful football club.

The fans are Southend United.

Walked across the pitch today.. its rubbish. Some areas of seed not taken. Couple of nasty potholes.....it'll disintegrate by November....

Stood at the North Bank end and there are a number of spots without grass. I think the length of the rest of it masks the condition

Well, probably only be needed for a couple of games….

Well done everyone. Making a difference where you can.

I lost my broom today, CP said to me " Have you had it for 20 years"

 

[Ozzer]

Had a good walk around the pitch...its terrible.
Proper little potholes, areas of seed not taking. Awful.

Brown circles where foxes have been p...ing too. Keep the faith. Hopefully, it can all look a lot better by Saturday.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Incredible stuff.

This is why the club can’t be let to die.
