Oh No! I was right 1-1

 

[Twinkle Toes]

Southend are getting a bit of confidence now. Probably end up making a boob. Two minutes to half-time to keep concentrating.

SEA SEa Seaside Air!

Doh!

[SirDouglasLoft]

Just stuck a tenner on Beletti to score at some point in the game at 9/1. And a fiver on Ashley Cole at 22/1.

I think they have enough, amount of scams they do

Never have I seen such a defensive team in my life. 20 minutes gone, both Southend forwards camped ten yards from their own box.

Deserved to lose 10v0 with tactics like that.

[Hockley Blues]

Apart from the fact that he's a cock, is there a specific reason Cashley Cole is getting booed everytime he gets the ball? No Southend history with him is there?

I was there and yep, no reason apart from him being a right cock.

That's what I was thinking, but when it come down to it Southend had more shots on target (at leats two) than useless Chelsea managed in the first half.

In the end Southend paid for having too many men behind the ball as the Southend defender got in the keeper's way for Chelsea's first goal.
