    I agree. If Jamie had Wayne Jacobs or Gary Jones next to him it would be a far more professional commentary.

    The two passes for goals 2 and 3 couldn't have been better. Scorers didn't even need to break their stride.

    For me, Danny Rowe is fast proving - just two games in - to be the signing of the season. Why the hell did Oldham let him go?! He has the confidence to shoot on sight, gets into great spaces, reads what people are doing around him with great intelligence and always looks like a threat. And he must be a bastard to play against, as a defender. And he's the most brutal kicker of a football at VP since yer man Campbell. If this was Lee Turnbull's doing, hats off to you mate.

    Blackpool had details of the coach prices down to Wembley in the matchday programme.
    Kammy pinned that up on the board of the dressing room before the game to motivate the team.

    Rowe will get goals for sure. Really enjoy the threat he poses.

    Not a good athlete by the look of it, not the best baller, but what a danger.

    A long trip for a midweek game. Southend currently bottom of the table and they lost at home on Saturday to Mansfield.
    However over the last four home games they have lost two and won two and in the form table, they sit 11th. Conversely over the same number of away games, City have won two and drawn two and sit fourth in the comparison table.
    Our former player Tim Dieng is likely to mass the match following his sending off on Saturday.
    As the old saying goes, we have nothing to fear, but fear itself.
    Enjoyed Saturdays game, so think I will buy another I-Follow pass.

    I don't think we need to be more open - you could see the intent and control to our play on Saturday. We just need a bit more pace, composure and quality. Part of that can be worked on in training, part of it is why we're still looking to bring in another winger and striker. One thing we don't have, is an attacking player who can go past people with a bit of pace and trickery. We really need to address that.

    Happy Birthday Park, here's hoping your best present of the day is confirmed at around 8.45pm.

    Hang on a minute Fordy. Before T&S took over you were adamant that even though we were crap we wouldn't go down. Now on the back of a six match unbeaten run we're not too big to go down???

    Apparently the ‘away following’ at Cambridge on Saturday was 2,731 I-follow passes. Can we beat that tonight?

    Put it in perspective, that’s the third goal we’ve conceded in 6 games

    It hasn’t come at any cost. We were even worse going forward under McCall. I think we’re better going forward now. We’re getting more ‘nearly’ moments, but the final ball isn’t there and we lack pace. We won’t get any better going forward without more personnel changes.

    Ditto! Not a bad comparison either mind you. Shearers one of my all time favourite footballers. Love seeing a striker just hungry for goals. For sooooooo long we’ve missed a striker with the selfish mindset and ability to shoot when creating the opportunity. He’s got every chance of very quickly becoming a fans favourite if he carries on like that.
