Funny how? What am I a clown? Am I here to amuse you?

You surprise me Mark in all honesty. Proper ground I think. Yes, the facilities are dire, but if I am going out for dinner or to be treated well I go to a restaurant, not to League Two football.

One of the only grounds we play at which still has an atmosphere. We always have a good following and it was one of the only grounds where our support managers to make any noise.

Like someone else said, Southend will always be quite a special place to me as well and I think a lot of people from the East End and Dagenham and Romford areas. I am not old enough to remember the days that person is talking about, but as a kid, going down there on a Sunday afternoon in whatever weather, Peter Pans playground, the pier, the smell of the donuts. OK, it's not Vegas but I like the place.

Although I like the fact we have a bit of a rivalry with them, I have never got the abusive chants about the place being a dump (unless people are being ironic which would surprise me) and I haver never got why people wish the Club or the place any ill.

Each to their own, but am very much looking forward to the 28th.

I know what you mean, i do like a proper ground with that real football feeling. Just my experiences of Southend have been traffic, not enough seats, overzealous stewards. Oh and getting beat!

I close my eyes at night and picture Sam Saunders scoring an overhead kick in the JPT there

The only issues I have with Southend is the lack of seats, their fans that moan and say stuff like "you're not Man Utd" when you moan there's not enough seats and the stewards that tell you to sit down when there aren't any seats left. Went to college in Southend and I actually quite like the place. Wouldn't want to live there but it's alright for a visit a few times a year.

[ARNU]

Southend have got thousands of empty seats every home game.The place is a library.

Great to shut them up 5-2 last year, we hadn't had much luck there in the past and we usually bring 600/1000 there. I remember there's a lovely cafe onlooking the pitch an once they tried to charge me £1 just to go in the club shop!

[Dagdale]

Shit hot fish & chip shop too, just around the corner from ground, Fish House if my memory takes me, worth the queue wait, and best before k o because if we go bollocks pitchside at least you've had half an hour of pleasure!
