Tilbury

[ronin]

Playing Tilbury won`t be quite as bad next season, their manager Tony Cross has left

[YELLOW]

Yay!!!!!!

[Ribbit]

We still have to go to Tilbury though...

[It's Me]

We are stronger now, they never beat us, they beat us up.

[Ribbit]

I wasn't talking about the football.

[It's Me]

I liked Tilbury, nice bar, shame about the rain.

 

I prefer Essex games, it is cheaper on the bus fares.

[Ribbit]

I hated Tilbury. It was the only game I got my dad to this season and we bloody lost on a terrible pitch, in terrible weather, in a terrible town, to a terrible team. I was glad to get out of there and even more glad when I saw the car still had wheels. Needless to say, I can't wait to go there next year.

[YELLOW]

Have to admit it's a godawful place. I never used to like going to Grays but I've got used to the place a bit more now but Tilbury is awful. A wretched place to go to.

Could not agree more, for me it was on par with going to Ilford, I do hope they dont slip back into this league I was glad to see the back of them.

Heard the barmaids in the Cauiliflower pub near to Ilford's ground are something special though.

[Baron of Black Fen]

I went in there last seaon and there was a bloke serving and the only female in there looked like a bloke aswell.

yellow,i do not know what standards you set yourself but if you think the chicks in the cauliflower are something special it really does say alot about the lack of talent on the island mate!!!

Yeah, I don't know what the new teams in our league are like, but I bet none have got a worse ground than Ilford. What a hole. Was easy for me to get to though, which is always a plus.

[Eastside Urchin]

i wouldn't say ilford was that bad,plenty of room,i have seen a lot worse in the ESL and flackwell heath was hardly paradise.Think we have to remember that some of these sides are struggling and can only afford to get their ground upto the bare minimum that is required for grading

[Ribbit]

True. I didn't get to Flackwell Heath. I think in the end I did 15 or 16 away games with two each at Hornchurch and Ilford. Ilford's was just a mess and I'm not a fan of sharing with sports clubs.

[Eastside Urchin]

i am,us sharing with the athletics club could stop romford moving in!!!

[Ribbit]

Not all clubs have the luxury of their own ground and I understand that. Like you say, not all clubs have got much money.

[Sharming Paula]

Always remember Warren running round the track at Ilford and raising about £25 for his effort. There was only about a dozen of us there - it was some mid week cup game.

Oh and Curtis got lost Had the following day off with a wicked hangover!!!

The second visit was good too. Went to the dogs before hand and cant even remember the game!!!

 

I lurve Ilford!!!!

 

[Ribbit]

The first game (Essex Senior Cup) was the game people stopped pretending they didn't know who I was...

[Eastside Urchin]

i watched the second half of our game from the bar which is always a good thing,think we was 5-1 up at half time though!
