    Boxing day game

    I normally park just off Rowley's Green Lane and it's a 10 minute walk and will be parking there for the game on the 29th before heading straight back to Scotland. I will only park in Tesco's if it is close to kick-off time, is there a time limit for parking at Tesco's?

We are going to sort out tickets and parking when we get there but in the event of problems on the M6 and getting down later than we are planning to what is the current situation regarding parking at Tescos and what blocks can we sit in...

    Footballers with socks above knees....

    You can still buy those but more seem to go for the ones that just tuck in behind the sock. It's the current boots that I don't get, the coloured ones are like slippers and if someone goes over the top of them with their studs they will just rip open. Then there are the ones without laces with a...

    Could have been worse, you could have paid for your ticket & coach travel for the Sunderland game like I did!!

    Just for fun: name that player.....

    Correct. Did he as my memory thinks get subbed off in the first half or half time of his full debut? I also think we never saw him again after that

    Just for fun: name that player.....

    A Scottish winger signed by John Sillett and played only 4 times. I think his debut was as a substitute and when he made his first start at HR he was substituted either at half time or in the first half

    I wonder where they all went

    Were they all the same colour? I used to think it was great that all those at HR were the same colour that we played in

    I wonder where they all went

    'My car was so small my date sat on the floor' One of my earliest memories at HR was seeing these parked alongside the pitch, yet I don't remember ever seeing one on the road. I never ever saw one hit during a game either. Did the driver stay in the car and watch the game or was there an area...

    Bob Mortimer

    He was deadly serious about the fishing and was a bit grumpy that Bob was taking a more lighthearted approach to it. As someone who doesn't see the attraction of fishing I enjoyed Bob's similar bemusement of it, much to Paul's chagrin

    Bob Mortimer

    I watched the last couple and I thought Paul Whitehouse was always trying to be funny whereas Bob Mortimer was naturally funny.

    Chemistry in the team

    No chance of that, he left Accrington before for Rochdale in 2012 who were then a league higher and went back in 2014. Seems that he and Accrington are a perfect fit, I think it would be brilliant if they were promoted again especially after all the 'experts' were tipping them for relegation

    Match Thread Southend United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Oct

    The ref is on the edge of the penalty area and his view was probably obstructed by players

    Match Thread Southend United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Oct

    He was flagging for a throw in to us. I get that the referee and linesman could have been unsighted but surely the reaction of the goalkeeper and defenders must tell them something

    Southend & Bradford away now

    I hate Southend. Horrible town & stadium. Worked there for 3 years and used to travel all over to watch us play home and away, never drew Southend away in the cup until I moved back to Rugby in 1998 and first cup draw was Southend home and away in the League Cup. Went to Bradford once and got...
