Time To Spare A Thought

[Stats]

..........for spaceman spiff, leeboy and uxbridge shrimper whom are being dragged kicking screaming against their own wills to matt the shrimp's wedding in Edinburgh this weekend.

For they will be missing quite possibly our most important game since bury those many moons ago.

Mts normally so thorough booked his wedding thinking that we would be sitting somewhere in midtable playing for nothing more than pride.

Shame on you matt for not having the belief that we would be challenging from promotion, I am extremely disappointed in you as I recall you actually booked your wedding shortly after our 8 game winning run!!

In all serious tone now congratulations on your big day hope all goes well for you and hopefully come 4.45pm on saturday afternoon you'll be enjoying a double celebration!!
Could end up being quite costly for you but then again thats probably nothing but loose change for a respected member of the higher society

Good Luck

Yeah, congrats Matt, hope you have a great day, though hopefully not as good as ours. I'll keep James posted by text (I'm sure I won't be the only one!), so remember to put the phones on silent!

 

[C'mon you Blues]

All the best Matt, have a great day. PS Kilts are de rigueur at Scottish weddings so I hope no one is letting the side down.

 

[Wessex Blue]

Congrats MtS, where in Edinburgh are you getting married?

 

[C C Csiders]

Call yourself fans.

Jesus, I feel really sorry for you all - have a great day though, and keep an ear to the radio

 

[Prodigal Son]

Good luck to you all, hope your seats will not be empty!

 

[MilkeySUFC]

Yep, best wishes MtS from me & my missus. Have a great day, honeymoon and rest of your lives together (with your wife-to-be not those Spiff, Leeboy & Uxbridge reprobates).

 

[overseas shrimper]

Congrats Matt.

Congratulations Mts and Mrs. Mts to be. Looks like you and United are both going to score with a 'Belle' on Saturday. Wish you all the best and may all your offspring be 'Blues Babies'.

Best wishes for Saturday and the future Matt

Well, we all remember the last time there was a wedding involving the club in some form on an important match day...

Anyway, good luck, have fun, and try not to go mad at the reception when you hear the score.

 

[Kent Shrimper]

congrats and good luck matt

Fortunately for us, Mr Maher got his priorities right

 

[Shrimp in a Kilt]

I trust she will be promising to "Love, Honour, Obey, and Follow Southend"?

Congratulations to you both Matt, and if you need to borrow a Kilt just let me know!

the thought had crossed my mind

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Thanks Stats - and thanks to everyone for their good wishes!

Just to clarify, SUFC were in the middle of our 8-match streak when we fixed the date for this Saturday... and (as I have confessed in the programme this weekend), I actively thought about whether it would matter if I missed the end of the season - and decided it wouldn't.

 

Hey ho, if sod's law dictates that I miss the promotion party, I'll live - depending on the beating I receive from Spiff, Lee & James.

Wessex - we're getting married in Pathhead, Midlothian - about 12 miles south-east of Edinburgh.

SiaK... no kilt needed for me.  I might be marrying a Scot, but I'm still an Englishman to the core...

Roar the boys on for me - and here's hoping I'm celebrating my wedding AND the championship on Saturday!!

Matt

Nearly moved up to Edinburgh 3 years ago and Pathhead was one of the places we were looking at.

I got married in Bonnyrigg mate (in a kilt) so not far at all from where you're getting hitched. The in laws live in Loanhead, small world eh?

Anyway have a great day and all the best to you and your bride to be.
