Now that is silly.
Sussex yes and maybe even the sussex/surrey border (should I be Palace, should I be Brighton) etc etc . But Essex and Reading? They have their own teams.
It does amuse me that they are still "The Who" bearing in mind there is only 50% of them left. Its like if Ringo and Paul played gigs and said "hey The Beatles are back".
Err no your not.
And THIS, ladies and gents, is why I HATE Charlton. Do NOT give me all that fans utd rubbish. Oh they all turned out that day blah blah BLAH.
When we were shit and Charlton were in the prem they took full advantage. This also extended to Kent, which also got Scally angry (not a bad thing but...
I think most teams privately (as opposed to public posturing) really believe its a race for 2nd place.
At the beginning of the season if you said by mid march we would be 5 pts clear with three games in hand you would have been sent to the funny farm.
I hope only a draw is needed to send both teams up and consign SCC to the play offs.
That way we (hopefully by then) keep our unbeaten home record and we can party with the Hudds fans on the centre circle.
