Never liked Southend. Utter dump of a town, & my memory suggests they have been something of a bogey side for us over the years.

May not be backed up statistically :)

We won there around 2008? 2-0, I think Forster and Murray scored after they had a man sent off.

That was under Adams MK2 in August/early Sept and I think we were near the top at that point.

We wasnt by October which is where "I didnt realise we had to be top by October"came out. We all know what happened next.

Did the double over brighton the season they won div 3
I prefer to remember the 9-1 at Goldstone.


Does anybody know, do they do the draw for the early rounds in two separate regional draws - one north and one south? They nearly always seem to avoid anybody having to trek from one end of the country to another.

I'm sure it was a Friday night and we went top of the league, briefly though. Rest of the season went down hill from there!

We've drawn Southend United in the first league cup game of the season. Away. Which is nice.

It was - we were singing 'we are top of the league' at the end. Hard to believe that we just survived relegation to League 2 that season.

Was very lively before and after the game that night.

Both correct. Remember listening to it on the old Seagulls World with my dad.We scored the second right at the end.

Highly suspect that this a fixture that both Football Liason officer's could have done without so early in the season as no doubt we'll take a "fair few boys" up their shall we say.

Funny how times have changed, last time we played them in the cup, we were in league 1 while they were in the Championship. Lost 3 - 2 I believe
