Southend United squad expressed as pizzas

I'd expect us to line up tomorrow as

Dark Mornings
Cold Hands - Dry Skin - Slipping over - Longer Nights
De-icing the Car - Getting Chapped Lips - Getting out of bed in the morning - Muddy Snow
Snow/slush
Having to wear a coat everywhere

But that all depends on whether Wearing lots of layers is available again. Who knows, maybe even Phil Brown will finally make MrsBlue happy and give Struggling with an umbrella a run out.

I'd like to see Christmas at some stage.
 
Getting wet feet and Getting ill didn't impress me much on Wednesday night.
Getting out of bed in the morning and de-icing the car are preferable.



Top 30 British grumbles about winter as per the Western Daily Express

1 Daniel Bentley - Dark mornings
2 John White - Cold hands
3 Ben Coker - Shorter days/longer nights
4 Anthony Wordsworth - Cost of energy bills
5 Adam Thompson - Rain
6 Luke Prosser - Black ice/slipping over
7 David Worrall - de-icing the car
8 Michael Timlin - Getting out of bed in the morning
9 David Mooney - Having to wear a coat everywhere
10 Jack Payne - Snow/slush
11 Myles Weston - Muddy snow
12 Will Atkinson - Getting ill
13 Ted Smith - Other people sniffing
14 Kevan Hurst - Getting wet feet
15 Cian Bolger - Dry skin
16 Noel Hunt - Staying in more
17 Stephen McLaughlin - People sneezing on public transport

I'll leave to the forum to make jokes about some of them but some of these are golden.
