Games in October

[St Marco]

3rd Oct - Gillingham (H)

6th Oct - Torquay (H) (mickey mouse cup)

9th Oct - Southend (A)

17th Oct - Oldham (A)

24th Oct -MK Dons (H)

31st Oct - Leyton Orient (A)

 

Of the 5 league games i think 10 points needs to be had. Not the hardest games we have had. MK Dons will be tough but the rest are easier then we have faced.

 

If we won say 3 of the 5 and drew one think that would be a very good return.

Southend is on a Friday right? Does that mean it's on sky?

I've not heard that Will, I think it's just to minimise the risk of people having too many beers prematch. They've moved a few of Southends matches for the same reason. sad isn't it that our fans are classed as a similar 'risk' to the likes of Millwall?

I'm not thinking we're classed with them, just they probably thought we'd take a lot

Think we'll beat Gillingham, lose at Southend, draw at Oldham, draw with MK Dons & win at Leyton Orient. So 8 points & still in the relegation zone come November & more than likely still bottom.

It's to maximise attendance as the London clubs tend to reduce the Southend crowd when they play on a Saturday.

 

Basically it's so they can get more 'home' fans attending and to hell with the opposition supporters.

England are playing next Saturday too which has probably had a say in them moving the game to Friday night.
