East Thurrock Away

[Umbrella Man]

There will be a few of us making our way next Saturday to East Thurrock on the magical 100 bus.

 

Leaving from Billericay stopping for refreshments in Basildon then continue onwards stopping at random public houses,

 

Time's will be added soon for anyone intrested on this very rare event.

I got the 100 there a couple of seasons ago... we were 2-0 down approaching half time when I decided to pop over the way to the pub, and missed Shave pulling a goal back, and Town on the way to a famous win. Some supporters had the cheek to suggest that I returned to the pub as we played better when I was there!

 

I dug out the match report (we were discussing this on Saturday as it goes)

Remember this game very well as i had bet £50 @ 9-4 on a blues win.

 

I was not a happy bunny after about half hour gone but this was probably Shave's finest hour in a blues shirt.

 

Some more of the same would be nice this weekend.

Times for Saturday,

 

The main group will be meeting at Billericay rail/bus station at around 10.30am and plan to be in Basildon at 11am then on to The Moon On The Square where we will wait for the stragglers till midday.

 

Then off to Corringham should take no more than 20 minutes unless there is a random pub stop,the last stop off should be The Bull that is next to the church behind the ground.

 

The ticket needed for this journey is called an Inner and should get everyone there for under a fiver(not sure about the Chelmsford and Brentwood fella's)

 

See you on Saturday
