With the Southend game now arranged for Tuesday 31st Jan, it's gonna be an expensive end to the month what with the cup game on the Saturday. Unless it's Forest, I may give the cup a miss as Leciester sounds a dire away trip after reading the comments on here  |

February we have loads of home game.

Im going to this and not bothering with the cup game now.
This title 6-pointer is massive.

This stage of the season is where our team's stamina is going to be tested.
We're playing only 3 days after the cup 4th round whereas Sarfend will have had a good long rest since their previous game, 10 days earlier. Hope that doesn't take its toll in this vitally important match.

I am very surprised we agreed to go their on this date, yes we are a fit side and we have some depth to the squad (hopefully even more by then) but it's a massive game for us and we shouldn't be giving Southend the advantage of 10 days rest with us potentially knackered after a big cup game. Just look at our performance at Barnet, it takes it out of the players. I'm a little concerned with our February schedule in general, two games a week for something like 6 weeks in a row, it's a big test for Paolo and the players.

I have been to Roots hall twice and seen us lose both times. I have also never been so cold in my entire life.
I would like to go to this but cannot help thinking that my dreadful away record will continue!

Looking forward to this. Local game for me. We need to win to really put the pressure on at the top. Southend fans are far too pleased with themselves at the moment so it will be good to beat them... again.

Apparently there is an awesome chip shop by the ground at Roots Hall. I will have to sample some.
Best chips i've ever had in England were Aldeburgh in Suffolk or the Wetherby Whaler in West Yorkshire.

There was definitely a big queue outside that chip shop before the JPT game so it seemed very popular but I didn't have enough time to sample any of it that day.
Will have to build that into the plan for the 31st.

Did anyone go in the Railway Tavern, opposite Priddlewell station, for the JPT game? Would rather get to Southend early and get in the pub. All the others were home only.  The train journey on a Tuesday from Liverpool Street was sooo boring with all the office types going back to Gavin and Smiffy land. Hope the London reds have one in mind!  |
