I am wondering when my royalty cheques are going to start arriving.
MTBD confirmed for 28th of July.
Means it will be a load of tosh like it was when held at Roots Hall a few years back
If it's on the Roots Hall pitch(unlikely) it will be great. If it's on the car park like last time, it's a disaster. It was horrendous with most people walking out soon after they arrived. You can't beat a flat grass surface with trees in the background. The car park is on a huge slope, bumpy and not nice. Any photo's taken have a horrible background. You couldn't pick a worse place to have MTBD.
This is what the official site is saying about MTBD
For 2019 we will be holding our Meet the Blues Day at Roots Hall Stadium.
Blues supporters will have the chance to meet the players and management staff ahead of the new season on Sunday July 28 from 10am.
This event is free to attend and the Blues Box Office will be open to purchase season cards, upcoming match tickets and Junior Blues memberships.
The Southend United Club Shop will be open to purchase the 2019/20 home kit - please note we are waiting on confirmation from Just Sport Group in regards to the away kit being available for purchase due to added sublimation and we will keep you updated on availability.
Southend United Community & Educational Trust will be running fun activities at the top of the car park so make sure you take part and you could win some great prizes!
Kevin Bond will conduct a first team training session on the Roots Hall pitch with supporters encouraged to come along and get a first-hand look at how preparations are shaping up ahead of the new campaign.
The Fairfield BMW East Stand will be open for fans to watch the session with the catering units and bars open for fans to purchase refreshments.
The players will then take part in a signing session in the Shrimpers Bar where the Trust will also be taking bookings for away travel and memberships along with merchandise and programme sales.

this is the kit thread not mtbd one
I'll go and sit on the naughty stair Mark, will that do?this is the kit thread not mtbd one
And where is the kit being released? At the MTBD so it is related.
Other clubs announce their new kit before some clubs finish their season.
It means more sales and money in the off season.
Not us. We bring it out about 7 days before the season starts to limit sales.
Such a backwards move. And I am so bored of the generic Nike kits.
We have been churning thus **** out for about 20+ years ffs.
usually mtbd gets its own thread
