Official Match Thread Wigan V Southend

[Jay_SUFC]

Only 4-1 - I would have bitten your hand off at half time for that result :smile:

 

[Special Blue]

And Bradford seem to be in form..... They are now 4-0 up against high flying Walsall!!!

Does anyone know if there are any direct flights from Southend Airport to Switzerland?? (not for tax saving reasons) I was just wondering if I had time to check into Dignitas before our last home game of the season next saturday!! :smile:

I'd check with Dignitas they may still be busy with Col u fans:winking:

Full Time - and nothing more than we deserved. Wigan looked a different class today, definaltly Championship material.

Poor Ted though, wouldnt have helped his confidence though. Hope he doesnt take it to heart.

On the plus side... Colchester are now officially relegated to League 2, now hoping they face Braintree Town, and Braintree give them a good damn hiding!!

6 wins from 20 games in 2016 is not great.

Doubt it....there aren't that many of them:winking:

Ive already checked mate, Dignitas dont treat any people with terminal diseases contracted through farm yard animals or immediate family members! :hilarious:

 

[Floval Flyer]

Colchester relegated.

One team in Essex.

And 6 points for us lost for next season...

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Think one of the commentators made an astute comment at the conclusion, in saying that our defence and midfield are fine when sides lump the ball up toards them but are inadequate when sides, like Walsall and Wigan, run and pass through them. Does that interpret, our Legue Two side has done well in League One this season.............but this side ain't going up?

 

[Swiss Tony]

I've got tickets for the East Stand for Bradford. First time this season. Should be a great experience.

Say hi to Brown for me,if he's still here.

Not great from us I have to agree.

But can you imagine being a Gillingham Fan?.... They were running away with it for pretty much most of the season, & not so long ago, automatic promotion was almost a certain, yet now they only have 2 wins from the last 13 games & have dropped out of the play off's & their final last 2 games are against Burton (2nd) & Millwall (3rd). I dont fancy their chances much.

On a personal note, I hope they dont make it, especially now as Col Ewe are relegated, I look forward to visiting them both home & away in the Essex / Kent Derby next season.

Also Franchise FC could be playing AFC Wimbledon next season. Wimbledon away is a good trip.

Glad you said that, I suggested the same thing a couple of weeks ago. Would be a great fiesty derby, and both teams make an easy away game. Would also Like to see B'orient up as well, although 99% impossible now.

I couldn't agree more that this wasn't a game Ted should've came into. I hope it doesn't knock his confidence too much...

Could this be a ploy by a (soon-to-be?) rival manager to de-stablise our young goalkeeper prior to next season ?

If that's not a joke it's certainly one of the more ridiculous theories about Saturday's choice of goalkeeper.
