Essex Senior Cup Final

[Eastside Urchin]

Sad thing is that if colchester unite had any trouble makers,and i am sure they don't,they would read the forum over the last couple of days and think they could get a bit of aggro from our little pub teams fans

[Eastside Urchin]

On monday,how are people getting to dagenhams ground,is anyone meeting up for an early beer,where are people drinking before the game,these are all questions that need to be answered.

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

yeah im going, but not looking forward to it for many reasons!

[Eastside Urchin]

Why is that,i am actually looking forward to it for many reasons.

firstly we will outnumber a league side in fans (probably)

secondly we will have a good night out and it should be a cracking atmosphere

thirdly,however bad our injury situation/cup tie situation,the players left i am sure will raise their game.

Lets just get as many of us down to nam on monday evening and worry about the game when it starts.

Just hope we don't get any injuries at tooting saturday,our players don't play saturday with one eye on the monday game or else we could be in for a serious beating and thommos & my missus either drop before monday or after monday

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

Just cant see us winning against a league side, who will cheat by sticking out first team players like they did last year. (6-1 in the fog)

Also for a game that their reserves should be playing in!

 

Dont agree with league teams being in a cup competition like this.

 

Dont like the seating arrangements being stuck behind one end with Colchester fans (no matter how nice they might say they are)

have a bad feeling we wont all fit in, or it will kick off (only takes one person).

 

Shouldnt have to pay £10 to get in to see the game from an end view!

[Eastside Urchin]

i personally think the whole ground should be open,2 stands for each but i guess it would cost a bit to steward.

not too sure col u will put out too many first teamers,got a feeling they have a game next friday and are in a healthy league position so i wouldn't think they would risk their better players.

Personally i think its great league clubs are in this competition as it means we get to visit grounds like colchesters etc.

[YELLOW]

Colchester can't risk too many first team players. They're still far from assured of a play off place yet.

[Hornchurch "O"]

How about 4 o'clock in the Yeoman to start with?

Anything other than 0-6 will do for me.

All i am saying is "Give us a goal"

[cup of tea]

It would be nice if they opened up both ends, better for the players and better for the fans (It's going to dead at one end otherwise) or open up a main stand like they did at Southend.

[urchinman1961]

why on earth they hav'nt opened up one of the side stands is beyond me then u could have easy segregation,talkin to a daggers steward seems to be down to running costs and easier to control ,they are pretty confident the end behind the goal wont be filled as only 300 turned up for the semi

[Hornchurch "O"]

Is that 300 in total or 300 Col U fans

[urchinman1961]

in total

[Eastside Urchin]

what they obviously don't realise is that this game is bigger for us than it is for the league clubs.

Colchester,i believe have never won this competition and the club itself want to win it.So i wouldn't be surprised if their club decided to pump their publicity up a bit to get fans to the game.Also they have no midweek game next week.

Hopefully we will take a few hundred up there,i've got a few mates coming who don't normally go.

I would be up for the yeoman from 4pm,assuming i can finish early and assumin the missus isn't in labour at that time

[SEVEN TEARS BOY]

Does the Daggers clubhouse have ESPN?

[Eastside Urchin]

why,surely on our biggest game for a while we can do without espn??

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

probably becuase hes more interested in German or Dutch football.....lol........!?

[Eastside Urchin]

city must be playing lol

[urchinman1961]

you are assuming a lot there robert

[Hornchurch "O"]

Man City v Wigan is live on Monday.

[Hornchurch "O"]
