First XI
So yesterday I finally moved in to my house. Long time coming, only minutes from the ground yet no chance of attending today. Way too soon after moving in, with so much to do (said the mrs). No point even mentioning it to her (though I still did). New area, new life and 'new' local football team. As I was lugging stuff around I clearly heard "COME ON SOUTH-END, COME ON SOUTH-END" so assumed that was 1-0 but that could only have been the players coming out for the second half, as ten minutes later that roar made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Hats off, that was one bloody loud goal cheer. A great first taster. Can't wait to make my Roots Hall 'debut' on October 4th vs Morecambe. I'm a season ticket holder of 20 years at The Boleyn and certainly won't be one of those donning claret n blue that I've read about here. You just DON'T do that, wouldn't even cross my mind to. Deserves a slap actually. I didn't even do that down at the Orient as a youngen when we were away. (Though going there now would definitely constitute one). Hope to meet some of you for a pint or three before the Morecambe game. Where do you all drink?
