lets just hope Gower wasn't breaking those white boots in for Cardiff.

No he didn't!

Doesn't anyone read my posts?

The record is 8 league and cup games (Billy Hick in the 1930s, 7 league and 1 FA Cup game). Brett Angell scored in 7 consecutive league games, something Freddy won't have achieved until he scores against Cambridge.

Also, did anyone notice Barrett was struggling with his back for a while after he collided with Darryl late in the 2nd half? I hope its nothing serious and he wont have to miss the Cambridge game?

I didn't notice Barrett but I did notice that when the players started to warm down after the game, Eastwood was the only one not joining in - he had an ice pack strapped to one of his calfs...

Nope. 'Cos you're boring and a tad pretentious.

Anyway, "Hick had a marvelous record at Southend and scored in seven consecutive matches during the 1927/28 season, a club record not equalled until Brett Angell achieved the same feat in 1991/92". Source : Potted Shrimps by Dave Goody and Peter Miles.

I know you're right (I've just checked) but you can't blame people for reading facts from club encyclopedias and assuming they are correct, can you?

No, Freddy getting the winner at Cambridge will be sufficient for me!

 

[Xàbia Shrimper]

I want Bramble to score the winner for Cambridge. Let's see those TIG blokes show their true feelings then!!

Where did gower get his new boots from? topman? i'm sure i saw a pair like that in there the other day... probably why he wasn't quite as effective as he can be.

when i saw guttridge warming up i thought he'd be coming on for gower as he was fairly anonymous, but i guess tilson must've wanted to play him through the middle and so took off petts, who i can understand being alightly annoyed if that is the case, with bentley moving to right mid. he did look quite tidy when he came on tho, although the game was over by then. pretty impressed with mccormack and defo think kev's got a bit of competition now, which is always good. a couple of fresh faces in midfield is just the impetus i think we need.

overall impression of the match was that it was a pretty even first half and on the basis of that alone the scoreline was maybe slightly flattering. but we scored at a good time and didn't look back after that, thoroughly deserving the victory. also, pretty much everything just seemed to go our way today, which was nice, as there were a few moments where we seemd to ride our luck a bit.

gray and eastwood were outstanding and forming an excellent partnership. freddy's such a great all round player, and when him and gower have got the ball in the final third, they've both got the ability to open up defences and create chances, as well as put them away.

just hope everyone's fit for monday and lets hope we can nail the three points!

Tell that to the Goody man!!

[TerryintheWest]

The info came from the Goody bible and for the record, Billy Hick equalled his record in the next season over 7 league and 1 FA Cup games!

What would you have, records or promotion?  

 

Anyway, on Monday, Freddy could beat one record and equal another.  

 

but I'll settle for a win!!
