Just wanted to mention how you all slagged off the cup draw saying we were going to lose and how **** it was, blah blah blah, moan moan moan.

Turns out you were all incredibly wrong and we are in the next round. It goes to show you can never guarantee what is going to happen with this club.

Enjoy the ride and leave the stress to PB

lol - well take it from me when we were sitting on the M6 yesterday :darkcloud:- everyone on the the coach was moaning about the #### draw and not enjoying the ride :loyalsupporter:
 
Well Chesterfield away makes it all worthwhile doesnt it.

Personally just glad to have got another win and against a team we have never beaten, Id swap it for a win in the league at the drop of a hat though...

Bit of a generalisation...............

We will turn Chesterfield over and at least get to the 4th round, along with a terrific unbeaten run in the league. Its all good!

Not really, only about 2 posters were not negative about the draw, now the 2nd round draw has been done and we get the same again! We have shown we can beat and lose to anyone in our league, we need to be more positive!

I'm more positive about Chesterfield as we were unlucky to lose there last time and they were on a good run then. Morecambe are our bogey team and we had never beaten them in several attempts, wasn't much to get excited about but glad we won.

It's more about the "magic" of the FA Cup - we play Morecombe at least twice every season - a non league team like Dover or Shortlands away would be a tad more exciting as for once (for awhile), we'd be the giants.

Oh MKs! You disappoint me. Southend are the giants in every game they play. Its not our fault other clubs have difficulty recognising this fact.

Having read an article about Accrington Stanley's financial woes, I bet they think we are giants in comparison.

Why? Being negative worked last time!

Anyway, that was a crap draw. Chesterfield away is marginally better but still a poor draw.

To be fair, most teams show they can do that in our divison. Funniest comment I've seen in a while on here

So was your issue the fact that people slagged off the cup draw or the fact that SOME felt we were going to lose.

To say that we all slagged something off is a very false statement, based on the number of people who post on here.

Fact is that it was a crap draw, so yes many did say that, any draw at home or to a non league side or Essex derby would have been so much better.

As for SOME people saying we were going to lose then that was a fair comment based on statistics. We haven't beaten them in all previous meetings so SOME people will automatically fear the worse. On paper Chesterfield away is also a crap draw and despite their current form will be a difficult game. Really depends which team turns up on the day, our good one or the inconsistent one.

But please dont tar everyone with the same brush.
 
After more than 55 years of supporting our great team, NOTHING has changed really. Fickle, critical fans have always existed, and always will. People who pay good money to watch are entitled to their opinions surely? Just remember that supporting a football team is like owning a dog for Christmas. Sometimes the dog ***ts on the floor but other days it sits nicely and is your best friend. COYBB
