Anyone know what the record attendance is for a Europa League match is at this stage? Are we about to smash it? I was wondering the same thing. The record for the qualifying rounds is 47,800 – Borussia Dortmund 4-0 Qarabağ FK, 19/08/10, play-off first leg , but I haven't managed to find the record ...

What with Jinx saying Song is almost complete, Jenks was due to sign when he is knocked out the euros and Payet said to be completed in next 72 hours could we have a triple transfer unavailing ? I guess you meant "unveiling", but you may have been unintentionally more accurate: unavailing...

We need to score - this is where we start our run to claim back our record from those upstarts from Barcelona. http://www.kumb.com/story.php?id=125821

This is a rare season where than can be no excuse of fighting relegation, pushing for promotion (or Europe) so there is no excuse for not playing the best available team for every FA Cup match. While I think we should be putting out a strong team for the FA Cup, I'm not sure how you work out that w...

A quick heads up - there's a signal fault between Chelmsford & Ingatestone. Been stopped for 5 minutes and no indication yet how long it'll be.

Edit: and now we're going back to Chelmsford.

So sorry for your loss. I hope that you and your family will take some comfort from knowing that the money you're raising in memory of Millie will help others.

I get that we don't want to seem over-confident, but...

I say "16 points ftom safety"! Some people have got short memories.

Fingers crossed that there's a draw at Southampton on Monday and then we can go into the weekend in third place!

Southampton would go third on goal difference. Whatever happens tomorrow, we go into next weekend in fourth. Which ain't bad.
