Pre-Match Thread Southend United vs Walsall FC

[Wickford Blue]

Do we know what time there is an inspection?

 

[dannypav]

If this game goes ahead , we really need to show our ‘intent’ to Walsall.
ALL of our players MUST be in short sleeves, no tights and no gloves.
Maybe even sweatbands for more effect ?
In fact , if it’s one of those odd occasions where the away team brings the wrong kit and the shirts ‘clash’ , we should offer to play in ‘skins’.
Pysche them out early.

 

[Cricko]

Still on for that bet Cricko?

Snow here is in Rochford is thawing and turning to slush already.

Ha Ha NO! You were toooooooooooo Chicken when it was offered to you. :dim:

MAF wears gloves in the summer, expect he’ll have his thermals on today

Now that you have withdrawn the bet, the words kettle, pot and black come to mind. :smiles: :raspberry:

Great effort from everyone who has turned up and the club.

i forgot we had the covers, i looked at that photo without my reading glasses and thought ' that tractor has made a mud bath of our pitch

 

[Ricey]

It’s green!

 

[Barling Magna]

Yes, but what colour is it?

 

[Microbe]

Ok no trains from Rayleigh, bus replacement only at present.
Anyone know if the civic centre car park is open?
Is there much snow on the ground in the town?
I'm determined to get to the game if it's on.
Thanks

Hope the floodlights are okay. Still we have the back-up that Phil Brown is an electrian. Oh, hang on a minute .....

Some whingy Walsall fans on Twitter moaning it's not safe for them to travel..... :facepalm:

Is it still frozen underneath or ok - especially South Stand end!!

 

[rigsby]

I'm told about 200 volunteers are at the Hall. Well done to you all, fantastic effort. I will be press ganging a few floating fans into coming for that effort.

Unfortunately I couldn’t make it to help out, but hearing through the grapevine that the pitch is fine underneath the covers, although not sure how true that is.

 

[wildheart]

Fantastic effort, well done Blue Army:smile: but what is the car park like? Being disabled I can’t risk falling over on that slope? Many of the faithful are ambulant like me, parking and walking to the ground is a big issue!:unsure:
