Pre-Match Thread Woking v Southend United, Monday 10th April, 15:00ko, NL

[Shrimpet steve]

Disruption now expected until 16:00.

Southend winning would be enough disruption.

This could well be the defining game of the season. Defeat and its mid table mediocrity and on the beach football for the last few weeks, win and it could be edge of the seats tilt at the playoff lottery- whats it going to be lads?

We’ve only beaten one side in the top 7 this season, so odds don’t look favourable. However, an early goal for us might help to shorten those odds. Apart from the NC drumming we’ve not really been out played by any of them although I did think Woking were one of the better sides I’ve seen this season.

Just got on a train to Guildford hoping to get to Woking from there.

No excuses today! Nothing other then a win against a pub side! We are southend united and we normally turn up in crucial games like this!

****ing hell give me strength

My lad done the same. Arrived at Guildford then 2 trains got cancelled so jumped in an Uber to Woking instead. Sounds a right mess.

Imo the 2 best teams I've seen this season are Notts County and Woking.....big ask to get the win today

They've just announced that this train is stopping and terminating at Woking! Us three are all cheering while the other passengers going to Fratton and the like are not best pleased. It's all going on.

Hopefully Kev will remind the team that for today, Kacper isn’t your mate. Give him a hard time!

Possibly one of the most disrespectful posts ever. A pub team with Lopata & Dackers, who we could not retain, yea right!!

The way he left us, I'm sure nobody in the squad thinks he's a mate. I hope he gets kicked about

Just arrived at the ground. Never seen such over the top stewarding.

Husin and Lomas back in the starting XI, Sandat starts alongside Cardwell (old crocks not in the squad) Collin keeps his place and Benton not in the squad at all (injured?)
