3-0 at there place will always be special
What is the best Col u away game you've been too
1970 when we won 2-0. In those days everything at Layer Road was wooden, fans, terraces and barriers. Following a rendition of 'Knees up mother brown' (in their end) the barrier snapped and gave way. If it had'nt been for our 'big lads' then we could have witnessed a mini Ibrox disaster.
Beat me to it Tony, we actually returned the snapped barrier to the OB. I remember the great "bounce" you got off the wooden terrace.
Knees up muvva brown:DI was there too, those were the days!
Funny how times change ;)Been some classics over the years but the 2-0 win there in 1990 was probably the best we were on our way up and they were going out the league. Over a thousand Southend fans singing 'Col U are going out the league singing Colu are going the League singing Col u are going the League, there one team in Essex in the merry month of May' 20 years on and thats still my favourite chant ever.
Outisde the ground Colu tried to make a stand against it but we laughed at them.

Arranged? Are you referring to handbags at ten paces?:finger:Whats changed? oh the fact your boys don't even show when its been arranged months previous
Was also at the Daley game. When the big lad scored he ran into the Blues fans behind the goal and accidentally butted a bloke called Kez in the mouth. Blood everywhere.
