Official Match Thread Brentwood Town 2-1 Southend Utd u21s

I am reliably informed by my man on the inside that Craig Mackall-Smith is playing. Gosh.

I'll be there myself soon so I may be able to confirm this wild rumour. Stay glued to your screens peeps, sports coverage literally doesn't get slower than this.

So where inside is he ? Dartmoor?

Your mate is about as reliable as a greek bank

he is, we shall be having words. above posters are correct, no way CMS would be playing here!

 

[Murkey_Mouse]

Sound like your mate a idiot lol, can't expect CMS to turn up there!!

 

[simac21]

CMS aint coming here lets be realistic he played for Luton again last night and looking at highlights he looked lively as he did for P'Boro and Brighton. If he was going to be on trial here he'd be here by now trialing in every game possible or asked to.

Let's move on to our next target and hope Luton **** up after spending huge wages on players like CMS, McQuoid and Mccourt

Mr Greebosan, thought its was your last post on here at 6.28pm before you bugger off to support Braintree Town :winking:

Portuguese trialist off at HT.

That went well then. Or he is going to get another chance tomorrow.

 

[Bratislava Blue]

That went well then. Or he is going to get another chance tomorrow.

That would be my thinking

 

[JD]

Really hard to tell, looked ok on ball, but pitch was not the best!

Greebo was joking. With the wink I guess you are too, just putting it out there for others as I get paternal.

Was he dominant in the air? He's 8ft 6, so I hope so.

@BrentwoodTownFC: ATTENDANCE: Brentwood Town v Southend United - 196! Look like we got more fans than Col Ewes, who they played their first team at Brentwood on Friday, they got 174 fans watching them :hilarious: #You Have No Fans! Do you want some? Sorry I won't give it to ya!!#

 

[shrimpled]

Would very much doubt the trialist will be seen again.

Won a few headers, but we looked incapable of dealing with most stuff they chucked into the box, especially set pieces.

 

[Murkey_Mouse]

I wouldn't want that defender back again, he is worst than what we got, next please!!

 

[Greebosan]

Right, back from the game, and no longer relying on my stupid phone to post.

My ex-mate, it turns out, gave me the information about CMS based on a bloke he bumped into into the pub before the game, who said "yeah I know the lads and CMS is playing tonight". Sigh. Blokes in pubs eh? To be fair, it may have been Mr Brown on a wind up.

Ok, the much vaunted trialist got a half, and looked ok-ish. Tall, bearded, suntanned. Did not set the world alight although it's very hard to tell in these sort of games - to be honest, for someone who is actually a pro, playing in an U21 side at Brentwood Town must be a tough thing to do. Maybe we'll see more of him tomorrow.

Other than that, not much to report - I do think that young Matsuzaka looks a good prospect, and we looked more lively in the second half. Brentwood were the better team for much of the match, but we did have a couple of good breaks.

Anyway, enough of this football nonsense, the real news of the day is that Anthony Costa, who my mate reliably informs me was in some sort of beat combo called 'Blue' was at the game for some reason. No doubt if there had been a lot of ladies there, we would have witnessed much swooning.

Biggest chuckle of the game was the young lads behind our goal in the first half loudly asking our keeper - "Are you Daniel Bentley?"

In any event, as you can drink on the terrace (which I clearly did a lot of) and the players say 'thanks mate' when you throw them the ball, I'm now off to support Brentwood Town FC. Dean Holdsworth's let himself go a bit though.

Thought of the day - my mate's daughter said "Why don't they make football stadiums with glass roofs so that people can stand on top and watch the game from up there?"

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

Your mate's daughter is a visionary - copyright that idea

 

[RobM]

Just checked with my mate Google and we won 2-0 at Swindon, but lost 2-1 at Mansfield in round 4.

That's right - I went to then all!

 

[TrueBlue]

So we will lose CMS to Luton ****ing Luton WE ARE A LEAGUE ABOVE
