    Question Boring logistical thread - getting tickets and a pint tonight...

    So I'm guessing that a fair few hundred folk have got to pick up their tickets tonight from the box office? And that 8 or 9 thousand of our fans may well want a pre-match pint in the Spread / Nelson / Railway?

  6. Southend ticket allocation for next wednesday

    Chelseas web-site state they have 2,000 tickets for the the game. Now when we played Man U initially they were given this amount which was then increased to give them the whole of the north bank due to safety issues, i.e. only 1 exit and set of toilets which at the time was deemed unacceptable...
  7. Southend v Chelsea on the spreads

    Sporting Index have marked up Chelsea supremacy as 2.3-2.5 i.e. you can buy Chelsea supremacy at 2.5 or sell at 2.3. e.g. if you buy Chelsea supremacy at £200 a goal and Chelsea win 4-0 you win £300 if it is a 0-0 draw you lose £500. So would you be a buyer or a seller? Much as I dream of a...

    Pre-Match Thread Ricey's Report: Huddersfield Town (H) 13/12/08

    6 Points None The Richer. Saturday's game against Huddersfield town is a definate 6 pointer for the Shrimpers. They are directly below us and if Huddersfield win they go above us, this is something we don't want to happen and why this game is of great improtance to us. I think a major issue...

    Help! Thick female alert!

    Please can someone tell me how to negotiate the chat room both for this afternoon for the game and also more importantly, for any Quiz that might be happening tomorrow? Spent 10 minutes in the Spread last Sunday, and there must have been a bouncer or someone who wouldn't let me into the Quiz...
