cwr "we could hit 5 figures tonight".

not very hopefully for more than 10k then

 

[johnwillomagic]

Me and TM think alike same first eleven and six of the seven subs identical.....he picked Conor Thomas ahead of Swanson
This surprised me but wonder now if Swanson is soon to be on his bike with window closing??? If not would have thought
he would make 18 ahead of Morris or Conor Thomas! Come on City get the win!!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Talk of another delay but players now out

 

[sw88]

Few hard early challenges coming in. On the wet surface it could result in some cards being shown!

 

[armybike]

From CCFC Wall blog mod "Attendance prediction: 11,459"

Would be a great turn out for a wet Monday evening

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

anybody have the team line up sorry? how we doing so far?

 

[sw88]

Penalty shout from Murphy who was played in by Rubén, red not interested. Not even a corner given or a card

 

[sw88]

Burge Phillips Reda Ricketts Stokes Obrien Fleck Vincelot Rubén Murphy Armstrong

About even at the minute. Both seem up for it

 

[armybike]

anybody have the team line up sorry?

#SkyBlues XI: Burge, Phillips, Ricketts, Johnson, Stokes, O'Brien, Vincelot, Fleck, Murphy, Lameiras, Armstrong

Subs: Charles-Cook (GK), Haynes, Martin, Morris, C. Thomas, Tudgay, G. Thomas

 

[sw88]

Reda pulled out to cover in the right, cross comes in, man unmarked, tries a terrible effort at a shot fortunately.

 

[Grendel]

Johnson all over the place so far Southend should have scored.

 

[sw88]

Rubén gets into the box after a great passing move from the back to the front, shoots, keeper parries, Vincelot goes for the rebound (may have been Obrien) and defender clears off the line.

 

[sw88]

Free kick won, Reda wins header but it goes wide

 

[sw88]

Rubén very much involved in our attacking play today.

Plays in Murphy with a great ball but Murphy holds it too long and his cross at second attempt comes to nothing

 

[sw88]

We win a corner. Everybody from the back goes up (well the CB's and Stokes), we play it short and it leads to nothing. Whilst I get it worked against Walsall, and a bit of variety is always nice to see, I am not much of a fan of that routine

 

[sw88]

Rubén gets a pass from Murphy, gets into the box, takes a touch to try and T himself up for a volley, doesn't come off.

 

[IrishSkyBlue]

we seem to be getting out stride now hopefully armstrong can bang in a hat trick ha

 

[sw88]

Almost gift Southend a goal with a shot pass back to Burge. Burge manages to get the ball first but not without any pressure

 

[sw88]

Rubén moved out wide right and Obrien inside. Strange considering it seemed to be working in our favour with Rubén just behind, but then again it obviously wasn't working well enough so I could be wrong!

Phillips earns a booking for taking a man out late. Couldn't Back out of it tbf.

Resulting free kick sent over, header won by them and the shot that followed goes narrowly wide

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Get in! 1 - 0

 

[sw88]

Stokes comes forward well, cuts inside to shoot keeper seems to touch it but denies doing so, ref gives corner,

AND WE SCORE FROM IT!

A rocket from Reda!

 

[Philosoraptor]

Get in there!

 

[robbieray]

Yippeeeeee

 

[armybike]

Get in Reda you beauty!!

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

1 - 1. Noel Hunt equalises.

 

[sw88]

Up the other end and we concede from a corner routine of Southend

 

[sw88]

Reda and Burge both miss the cross. Hunt made sure he didn't

 

[armybike]

Oh, really! FFS 1-1

 

[skyblueheaven]

Fuckin school boy errors

 

[Grendel]

Dreadful goal to concede. Burge surely should have gone for the ball.
