Weren't Tranmere and Southend similar in that they used to play their games on a Friday evening to avoid clashing with the local big club? West Ham in Sothends case. Were there any others that did this?


West Ham and local big club? Doesn’t make sense Bob.

Southend definitely did that. I worked with people who were West Ham fans but would go along to Roots Hall on a Friday anyway. Even worked with one guy who was a True Blue Shrimper but would go to West Ham on Saturdays if Southend had a Friday game.

Tranmere definitely did in the late 80s / early 90s but I don't remember Southend doing it too...

I guess City should have been my English team since my granny’s cousin went there from hibs.

However my other granny was from Manchester and gave me a united strip aged c5 and that swung me.

I’ve been to Manchester once although I have seen united play four times.

You're weird. Do you think this is a particularly anti-Sterling place? Who are you 'bantering' with?

Take a chill pill PtB, you're way too highly strung. It is banter, dude.

With who though? That's my point. There's no target for that 'joke' here.

Ah, the beautiful game, remember that? Let's put down some jumpers and have a socially-distanced kickabout. Long shots only, and no hugging and kissing.
