    Why does it matter if we play Friday or Saturday

    Saturday is the day for football, we would have more fans there, we would make more money etc.

    Will get the usual fob off

    That I got about whoever we were playing on the Monday being able to cancel their weekend fixture.

    Can't play within 48 hours blah blah (even though it isn't)


    I assume they had to ask BFC as well if they were happy to move it.

    Typical woman, only thinking of herself :D :D :D


    We have played two games in three days twice this season and so Southend could do it no trouble. I have a sad feeling that you're right and we allowed them to move it.

    They play Leeds on the Monday night. I guess they are at home so it's up to them!! We may have agreed to it, as we play Colchester on the Tuesday night it gives us a extra day to recover as well!!

    Southend are at Hartlepool on the Tuesday night 3 days earlier so it could work in our favour!!

    Just anoying taking time off work when Saturday is free anyway!!

    if they had been knocked out in round 3...

    they had a Saturday fixture anyway-so that argument doesn't hold up

    No difference at all

    Personally I think we should play on Monday mornings or Thursday afternoons.

    No difference at all?

    Apart from making it harder for most fans to attend?

    I think I might have detected the merest hint of sarcasm in Jay's response - I'm sensitive like that.

    Can't get that fob off though Eaststander

    Southend are in the position that we were in, not that our opponents were in.

    Im guessing it'll halve the attendance

    150 instead of the full 300 compliment. Or are the London Supporters club still boycotting due to the season ticket renewal rules?

    You're kidding? You mean someone who answers the phone at a football club hasn't got a clue what the **** goes on upstairs? I think that's an outrageous claim and you should take it back immediately.
