I still don't think any football toilets come close for hideousness than the old Gillingham away end which had a wall with a trough at the bottom that had a partial cover. I remember once being there in the rain and not knowing whether the pool of water surrounding the wall was piss or...
Nope.
Got a frisk from some security types before the gate, then came the people who were meant to be checking print outs/phones but you could just walk past them, as I and many others did, nobody called anybody back or made a fuss about people just walking in unchecked.
The terrace was a right...
In real time I don't think these two tackles are even comparable, the one in the Stockport game is a red card for me, clearly off the ground, clearly makes full contact with the shin of the player studs up.
The one in the Weymouth game he is not clearly off the ground coming in from the side...
Thought we were well worth that win. 1st half dominated, Woking didn't look like they knew a football match was even going on. Credit to their manager though, two subs at half time, completely changed their set up and they looked a different team.
They scored a looped deflection and get a...
Seen him twice in Southend-Peterborough games, went into the games thinking, christ we better not let Tomlin run the show but there was actually no danger of it because he was that unfit. I'd also say you can't count on him to come off the bench and change a game if you want 20 minutes out of...
We've won once at Grimsby - 1987. We've never won at their friends from Scunthorpe current ground, but actually had an okay record at the Old Show Ground, including a 6-1 win in the 80s.
Even when we're stable off the field we very rarely do mid-table seasons. Think I saw as well that over the past 40 years only Bolton have moved between divisions more than us. History says we won't be in this division long, just have to hope we don't sink further!
Can only speak from a Southend viewpoint but I actually think it's been getting worse since around 2017-18. There was a noticeable rise around then in the people I call 'The Children' following the club, the late teens, early 20 something pissed up types, usually wearing all black and not...
I think if Ron wasn't the owner we'd have a chance with Barratt, as it is I think he'd rather go anywhere else. He looked decent for us before he got a terrible injury and look good enough for League 1 when he came back but he was one who suffered at the hands of Ron's lack of funding. If his...
Surely they've just counted extra staff that come along to games and family members, I can't believe BWood have 30 supporters total, let alone 30 that would go to Halifax on a Tuesday night,
