    The result shows that you won 1-0 and took the 3 points. On another day, at least one of the two penalties would have been awarded, but that’s football sadly. At least Halifax lost, so we’re still sniffing around 7th place. It will be interesting if we meet in the play-offs.

    I’m not seeing any mention of pitch inspections on your Club Website or X. Anyone your end in the know about the pitch condition, we’ve got rain of biblical flood levels down here at the moment, and it would be quite good for an early heads up if it’s postponed.

    2nd best defence in the NL after Rochdale I’m told.

    As you say, play-offs are a lottery. We sneaked into 7th place last game of last season, and then nuked Rochdale and FGR on the way to the final, both away games.

    Iron it is then! At least you had the opportunity to see off Horsham at your place, we have to travel to them and their poxy 3G pitch. May the best SUFC win on Saturday.

    Afternoon Irons, I’m hoping for a draw on Saturday, but Glanfield Park has never been a very happy hunting ground for us, so it depends which Southend turn up. With Boreham imploding at the moment, and FGR getting jittery 3rd and 4th places are up for grabs for those who can be consistent. What’s the state of your pitch with all this rain, and chance of a postponement?

    Yesterdays Southend shambles was very disturbing in many ways .. team selection , performance and a lack of any effort lead to.the the obvious outcome.
    I hate all the doom.n gloom but i cant see us picking up.enough wins to.keep.is up.and confirmed before Santa has been gone the NLN will.be our home next season.

    SHAMBOLIC .. cant see a way out of this mess with Daws at the helm n Swan in the big chair… sad to say we look doomed

    As one of ours said earlier in the thread, you looked and played exactly like us at this time last season. We binned Tango-man, but more importantly, recruited the right new coaching team, and that was down to our chairman finally keeping his nose out of the football side of things and a big push from Stan Collymore and later on, John Still. It might seem like there is no hope today, but we all know that football is a strange old game and stuff happens followed by improvement. We may well get would up in the high court in November, so we none of us know what is round the corner.

    Keep the faith lads, take the piss out of Wrexham and the other big spenders and maybe, just maybe, your players will wake up to the fact that the NL is horribly non forgiving. I really hope you come good and start moving up the table, after all, us SUFCs have to stick together.
