Great occasion for local football, the stadium looked great with the two stands behind the goals. Pitty the Bridge House didn't open till 12,queue for beer was very long so it was a swift jog to the Essex Yeoman and back.

 

Great to see progs pegged back to a £1.

 

1st ten mins looked as though Tranmere would dominate, but once Urchins knew what they were up against they coped very well. Come second half they were dictating the pace and were desperatly unlucky to come away with nought.

 

Those refereeing decisions:

 

Both Vinny John incidents were unclear to me at the time, having seen them again on the telly this morning, the disallowed goal looked incorrect, and as for the pen I am still not sure one way or the other.

 

What the telly didn't show was two free kicks that wern't given on in the second half late on. One for a obstruction on Steve West, and the other for a push on someone. Also they did not show the ridiculous free kick that was given in the first half for the back pass tothe keeper. Nobody could convince me it was deliberate.

 

On a sour note, I was a little concerned with a racist element in the crowd on the east covered terrace. The id rather be a pa%i than a scouse was a bit ott, and I heard one geezer describing the Urchins performance to someone via mobile as follows: "We should be winning but he's picked too many black players" I hope these lowlifes were only one off's for the big game, I sure they were.

 

Overall, really enjoyed the game, and was stillable to get down to Aveley to see Boro put 5 past London APSA.

 

Well done and hard luck.

Are you suggesting that he came and supported Hornchurch that wonderful day?

 

Now as for the eastside, well I seem to recall that most of our regulars could not get in there on the day..... hmm, a load of bollero me thinks!!
