I see Southend have placed Dale fans in the worst possible block of the ground they could choose.

I don’t think it’s just us, the same block allocated for their next game v Woking.

They’ve been splitting that end all season so home fans can go in there too.

It looks like the same place we’ve always been, but maybe less of that area this time, which should still be sufficient.

Popped to Roots Hall and picked up a ticket today. Other than potentially the York game for me this is the most important game in which to get a result in the remainder of the season. I am to hyped to make any prediction, just one more goal than Southend will do.
Strongest 11 on the pitch for as long as is physically possible please Jim.
Might have to double my amlodipine doze as a precaution tomorrow.
Come on Dale the support of the town has not been this vociferous in years.

Yep, wasn’t a whinge but from the seat map, half of that block is beyond the touchline in the corner.

Fully get why this is so with their impressive support, but they could shunt us across one block and still have an empty block.

Normally, the three blocks on the right hand side of the North Stand are reserved for away supporters The Club sell tickets for the furthest block first, and then as demand requires, other blocks are sold. In reality all three blocks are open and away fans sit where they want Gateshead's 12 travelling bravehearts looked a bit lost in there. Safe journey those of you that are travelling. Ticket stats reckon you have sold 122 seats so far, and it will be around a 7k gate.

The biggest issue ahead of this game is the possible need to wear that god awful third kit. Can’t wear blue and would require alternative black socks if we wear the usual away kit as Southend wear white socks.

If it is the mint green strip, it’s two games, two defeats so far.

Have to agree - the mint green kit is awful.

I think the black and white kit looks awesome however and would be happy for versions of it to stay as our away kit permanently.

Huge game tonight. Season isn’t over if we lose by a long shot though.

I have that 3rd shirt and we have a good record when I wear it.

I wore the black and red one from last season from some reason for both Halifax games. It will not be leaving the wardrobe 'til the season is over now.

They’ve come out for the warm-up wearing white shorts and blue socks.

You’re welcome.

Terrible start to be 2 down after 18 mins, not sure how long we need to keep playing it out from the back when they've got such a high press, we're causing ourselves no end of self inflicted headaches.

First time we get the ball forwards fast results in pulling a goal back.

Should be 3-3 this not 3-1... where the fook has our defence got lost on the way? Missed some chances but got 1, they took all 3, defending non-existent at both ends.

Fully deserve to be 3.1 down, the defending is appalling and our left hand side is all over the place getting exposed time and again down there.

Because that’s how we play. They won’t change now and why should they? They choose to go long when it’s on.

The goals are a result of rank bad defending, not because of how we play out.

There is so much space when we go into midfield. Southend are there to be got at but we have to get the basics right at the back.

Yeah, I don’t get it as Moss is a much better defensive option in that side so should be nullifying Scott-Morriss and co. The distances are all wrong.

'Why should they change' because its blatantly not going to work against every single team in the league, we're getting battered and playing every pass across our own back line isnt working against a team so mobile and willing to close us down.

The defending is horrific but we are creating a lot of our own problems, half time cant come soon enough just as they crash the post with yet another shot at goal.

Shocking defending. Even worse than at York because collectively we’ve been bad rather than individually.

The only silver lining is there are going to be chances in their box. The Whatmuff save could be a turning point.

If we make it one.
