Breaking News *POSTPONED* Southend Utd vs Cambridge Utd 21st November 2020 15:00hrs FL2

[Chapperz]

Stick with the same team. We are in desperate need of some consistency and a settled side, especially in defence!

They've had a whole week since the last game, so White might be able to play the full 90 minutes.

 

[BluePartridge]

I'm gonna go down to the garden shed and search for Akinola. If I don't I'll find a big spider that'll probably be our best, actual, striker.

 

[geoffmundo]

After Scunthorpe's victory last night, added pressure as we desperately need to get something out of this to avoid the gap widening down the bottom.

 

[Barling Magna]

Unchanged side required, perhaps bring Emile on rather earlier depending on the match situation. It's going to be a tough proposition as will Forest Green be in our next match but we then have a run of four games against those teams not far above us in the table so we need to perform well in order to maintain our fragile restored confidence for those matches

 

[dannypav]

Let’s hope those film extras are still there and can create a nice supportive atmosphere

 

[Tommy2holes]

I know we have been dire and I know we have only won one game but we should approach any game going for the jugular.

Cambridge aren't Barcelona and can be beaten.

[Paulie Walnuts]

I hope we stuff Cambridge, cannot stand them in any capacity.

 

[Tampa Blue]

Just whatever team he picks, please don't start with 2 up front. Stay in the game for as long as possible and make it hard for Cambridge to have any space in the middle of the park.

 

[Spenser]

Was Dion Dublin leading their attack that night? With John Beck as manager? And they roughed up our pitch to spoil our beautiful football? Shocking!

Pity he wasn't. Dion Dublin was 3 years old at the time.

 

[londonblue]

Whatever the team, it's worth remembering we're playing the team that are 2nd in the table. Yes, they've had a bit of a wobble, and yes, we won our last match, but please let's not have any knee jerk reactions if we lose. We would probably have lost this game anyway.

 

[BluBayou]

After Scunny's victory last night I'm starting to think the table in meaningless. It's the covid effect disrupting the normal start to a season. Perhaps this season we are going to have to wait 15 games or more before we can start judging teams.

don't think it's a possibility to stick with the same team! Feeling Lennon could be out for a couple of months at least with a knee problem. (Not the ongoing calf issie).
hopefully white can manage 90 mins now.
Don't think Macca anywhere near yet but started training I hear.

 

[SeldomSeenShrimper]

Just put Freddy Eastwood Jr on the bench for the marketing possibility

Either way, we're still ****ed!

 

[wakes123]

We should be confident going into this. Our mindset will be completely different coming off the back of a win rather than defeat. I think we'll win.

Barcelona aren’t even Barcelona anymore !

This is a League full of very poor teams.
Although we lost , I thought Oldham were dire and can’t see them getting many points.
Just got to hang in there and hope we can put a run together.
Still going to be very tough for us to survive

Pity he wasn't. Dion Dublin was 3 years old at the time.

Beck was —--a very mature?— 16 ,though.

Southend utd v Cambridge...21.11.2020..!!!
Bloody hell...
Im still trying to get over .....21.04.1972....when they beat us at Roots Hall....it was my birthday and we all thought we were going up for the first time that night..

It was their second season in the League and Brian Greenhalgh (aged 25) was the main problem scoring both goals - he got 11 in the last two months of the season.
