Good point! I said I was dreaming.....

Another example of the EFL double standards, this was likely done to thwart fair play money rules which get twisted with impunity and "the finger" by the wealthy few clubs.

there's a great YouTube video from McAnthony from the other week all about the window and he went into great detail about the Maddison deal, FFP, what the efl do about finances etc. Actually a really interesting watch if you can find it.

We have found a little bit of form but unfortunately are having some really tough games. If only Campbell and co had come in when we had that run of games against teams around us.

Posh and then Cov. Both hard games.

 

[Ricey]

I really hope this isn’t called off as I’m going to go to this one. Hopefully they’ll be two new signings in the squad too.

 

[Colchester and proud!]

Toney, Eisa and our former player Sammie Szmodics, they have some seriously fast and dangerous forwards, your defenders will need to be on top form!

That is such an obvious and totally unneccesary post @Colchester and proud! When have you ever known our defenders NOT to be on top form. We're not you know.

Our current defence against fast forwards is not so much of a problem - it's height we will struggle with.

I remember some bald bloke tripping over on the beach at our ground

Joke of a game, joke of a stadium, joke of a football team.

I knew that would touch a nerve with one or two of you, no offence intended, it's called banter!

Yeah, I know the bloke you mean. Here he is again around 1m 20s in a game against strange people in a very fetching peachy colour kit.

Nope sorry, that game is completely lost on me, did it really happen! ..... Seriously, I always rated Adam Barrett, one of those players who inspired the team and the fans to rise above the norm.

 

[St Albans POSH]

POSH fan in peace.

On paper we should walk this, however Toney is one yellow away from a two match ban, Thompson (who has been magnificent) is suspended and we have a habit of struggling against teams towards the er, basement of the League.

We are due a half decent set of officials (for the love of God, please ...), last Saturdays were clowns dressed in black.

I'm going, predict a 1-0 Posh victory and will offer my thoughts on Weds.

Travel safe from the Thames Delta.

Seems like both clubs have fallen victim to the dodgy officials gang @St Albans POSH. Should make any close decisions very interesting on Tuesday.

SOUTHEND United manager Sol Campbell is considering resting striker Charlie Kelman at Peterborough United tomorrow night.

THERE has been little to cheer for Southend United’s supporters so far this season.

If the game's going ahead then yes.You might want to check the weather conditions in "poshland" before you fork out your tenner though.
