if it means seeing those two goals again then it will not be a good watch!

Have just about thawed out from the cold.

[ManchesterShrimper]

Wont be watching the goals, will be listening to the pundits (who may i say look like a couple of right nuts) and a posh fan who can hardly be classed as a pundit

ah that's not so bad then! I don't ever want to see their 1st goal again! Seeing it 3/4 times at the ground was more than enough.

By the pitch yes, the better side i am not so sure. col ewe have played on this pitch in this condition, and yes they have learnt how to deal with it, we played good football tonight, we had the terrible pitch to contend with, even those who support neither side must agree that we had at least 4 terrible decisions go against us, we had real bad luck, but from what i saw there was only one team playing good football. I expected us to lose tonight, the defeat doesn't hurt, the manner of the defeat does.

The 'Barrett Goal' was heavily featured on National Breakfast TV this morning aswell as Sky.

The whole nation really is having a good laugh at Southend's expense today.

The whole nation saw that disgraceful excuse for a football pitch last night. I've seen ploughed fields that are flatter than that!

Looking forward to seeing how Gaydy Bumboy handles another relegation battle next season.

Are you assuming that Col Ewe are going to get promoted this season? or that they will be relegation fodder in league 1 next season?
On last nights performance, and on recent results then i don't think Col Ewe are anywhere near good enough for promotion, i also think they will struggle to finish top 6, but we shall see.

I was humouring them about getting promoted. Many of them seem to think they're going up this season while we're going down.

For what it's worth I think they're a decent League One team who have on balance, despite our performances, had the better of us this season. Fair play to that long ball merchant **** Boothroyd (who wasn't there last night due to a family illness, just in case you hadn't heard ) as he's clearly got them playing in a way that seems to have worked out well for them on balance this season. I fear they may be getting back on track after a poor run of form.

I can reveal that the member of his family was suffering from two conditions chronic neck-ache and trench-foot.

[Suffolk Shrimper]

I do apologise. It was me who was interviewed and claimed that we would '............after a traumatic season win like we usually do against them' (or something to that effect). I clearly tempted fate. But cup half full and all that, only way to look at things at the mo unless you want an ulcer.

THe BBC bod cut out my response to his other question to me when I recounted how we relegated them in '89 out of the football league, kicked them out of the LDV southern final, won on our first visit to their lego sandpit last year' etc. I think they ran out of tape. Shame.

I did enjoy the first SUFC interviewee on Kick Off re his mate in the background who clearly appeared to be hilucinating and transfixed by something above. Probably the Ewe defence practicising on ball orbit techniques.

Ho hum

[Stanbridge]

I think I saw you being interviewed Suffolk. Are you about 5ft 3ins, overweight and the owner of a high pitched winey south Essex accent ?

I could see the interviewer awkwardly smiling at you, while he tried to work out how to end the piece.
