Anything over 250 (imo) , would be ‘most excellent’

 

[BigCol]

A bit too far and not a new ground for most. 200ish

 

[Fitz]

So how many we taking? Haven’t played here since 2015 and one of the grounds I haven’t been to…tempted to go…would be my 93rd ground following the Blues!

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Me and D1 are letting "the train take the strain" for this one and 2 tickets purchased

 

[shrimperjon]

recon it will be around the 300-350 mark. havnt bought our tickets yet but have booked BOT

 

[shrimperjon]

recon around 190 sold at the moment

 

[Harry Bullocks]

I agree, anything approaching Halifax numbers ( just over 300 ), would be ‘most excellent’.

 

[Liam AAS]

See you all there!

 

[Cultist of Sooty]

My brother and I are going. But it's only 10 minutes on the train from where we live to Hartlepool, so it's a nice easy journey for us.

Hi folks, Pools fan here. I’m bringing my Southend supporting neighbour to the match next week. I have a few things to do before the match so I’m dropping him off close to the Vic. Do any of your fans have any pre match plans for a pint so that he can meet up with you?
I was thinking of dropping him at the marina as there’s a few pubs down there plus it’s a short walk from there to the Vic.

I'd say chances are any pub you drop him off in there will be a gathering of Southend fans in there.

As an aside am I right in thinking your match day programme is purely digital with no printed copies?

 

[NYPOOLIE]

Yes mate, digital only now. Hopefully he can meet some fellow Southend fans before the match.

 

[Chris Powell's mate]

Good luck to anyone going.
Have never been so cold in 63 years of watching football than a Feb night at Hartlepool.
Was in the press box facing the smaller stand opposite and a raging North Sea behind it.
Felt like Leonardo DiCaprio on the prow in Titanic minus the romance.
The local reporter, Damian Spellman, bought a pie at half time he didn't eat but used as a hand warmer!

Sneaked in your Raglan Quoit (sic?) bar a few years ago. Nice, friendly place.

Will be a good person to ask IMHO

Tried counting the grey seats this time (no flies on me) and it looks like around 250 now. Happy to be proven wrong if some other anal grey counter wants to give it a try.

Travelling down from Edinburgh by train for this one as it's one of the rare away games that is do-able in a day. Bringing along a mate who's originally from Berkshire but is very much looking forward to getting their first taste of Southend action. Reckon we'll arrive around about lunch time or just after (pending no delays) and will likely try and hunt for a watering hole that's hopefully filled with other Shrimpers before settling in for the game. Fair play to everyone that's making the even longer journey that day.
