Pre-season friendlies

[WESTY_SUFC]

Buzzing for Orient away. When others mentioned that it was in the pipeline, I hoped it was true.

A few beers after work and the chance to see Mooney offside for a team that isn't mine, sounds good to me.

You don't remember the vans/paint trophy area final then

Yes but he was half decent then!

 

[Jonny_Stokes]

Wow, can’t believe my team of plucky non-league plumbers, accountants and binmen are going to have a pre-season cup final against THE Southend United! This is the stuff that dreams are made of.

I tend not to bother with pre-season friendlies but I'd be well up for that.

Beer?

I bet you will be torn on who to cheer for? Your local non league minnows or your big club.

So all down to GWR then... Not interested in watching Tunisia tbh

You don’t want to watch Bilel (hopefully) vs England ? Best bit of the WC

Careful. He did score away at the inbreds

"We haaaaate Orient, we haaaaate Orient"
Be good to take a few there and have a sing song. I really miss them.

Blues to face non-league duo in pre-season

SOUTHEND United have announced two of their pre-season matches for the forthcoming campaign.

More...

 

[Mr Browns Ghost]

this will be huge both games should sell out

 

[Ricky Otto]

I'm up for meeting a few other city based shrimpers after work and going to the Orient game if anyone else is?

Hey, anything to help the small fish. Its a big pond out there.

Pub/bar near Liverpool st or Bank and then hop on the tube to Leyton?

Yeah, let's pick one and go for it. I've not been drinking around there much lately so wouldn't be sure which pub(s) to suggest.

If Bank, maybe the Jamaica wine house? Big courtyard outside to stand and drink in the sun?

Liverpool street, the railway? can't think of anywhere that stands out around there

Why not get on their Manor early and run amok all afternoon. I mean we may never get he chance again.:winking:

To be honest now The Gun (RIP) is gone, there isn’t really anywhere particularly decent to drink around Liverpool St. IMHO. I’d actually recommend drinking in Leyton these days as the offerings are better - and cheaper - than most places in town. The King Harold is now the Leyton Star and vastly improved, The Northcote and The Birkbeck both have new landlords and are back to former glories, the town hall has been converted into The Leyton Technical and specialises in food & craft beer, and the Supporters’ Club is the best place to drink real ale in London.

Just send TrueBlue and the scrotes to the Coach and Horses which is still utterly dire and they will feel right at home.

Off topic but I thought you may appreciate this............if you haven't already seen it. :smile:

Now there are direct flights between Southend and Malta a summer training camp with a friendly or two with the natives would be great.
