Chelmsford match on Monday 25th October 2021

I'm fed up with talking about the Sudbury game , lets look forward to this game which is traditionally a fiery , competitive game , just the sort for the team to put on a real show and forget all about Sudbury and get 3 valuable league points
Will Kingy makes changes ? , I would like to see Murtagh back [ he is quietly effective ] and I really like Michael Kedman who would bring great [ left footed] balance to that side of midfield
Chew that [ and others over] I feel sure Kingy wont mind !!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone know what parking is like at Chelmo? Weirdly, a ground I’ve never managed to visit. Well, not the ‘new’ one.

There’s quite a big car park there but once it’s full you have to park on the road.

Unfortunately I have to miss this game as I am now in isolation until next Thursday due to COVID.
Good Luck to Kingy and the boys, fingers crossed we are back to normal and we can bring home the 3pts.

I am a big fan of the 60’s band The Searchers, there are 4 members in the band and it was suggested years ago that I should call myself The 5th Searcher as I used to go and see them so often.
That’s basically how it came about.

Viva the Searchers. A band, now more recently retired, who got better and better the longer they performed. Always had a very loyal following and always created an excellent atmosphere whenever I saw them perform, which like the 5th, was often, especially in recent years.

They are re-forming Pete for a one off 40 date Thank You tour in Spring 2023. They will have a different drummer though as they haven’t asked Scott to be part of it for some reason.
Sorry for being completely off topic, now back to the football.

I think Chelmsford playing on Mondays is something to do with Stadium usage for athletics on Saturdays, but could be wrong.
Last time we played them in the evening, I rushed back from Dorset just to see us get trounced 4-0. Can’t see that happening again, but then I doubt anyone saw us shipping three against Sudbury! Chelmo are on 8pts from eight games, whereas we are 22pts from eight games. Can’t let the disappointment of the FA cup affect our phenomenal league form.

It might appear that way as Darts are not playing today. It’s our ‘day off’ due to there being an unequal amount of teams in the league. Chelmsford are playing today. Away.
Monday’s game is simply because Chelmsford always play their home midweek games on a Monday. This week sees the first round of midweek league games.

Does seem strange Chelmsford playing their "midweek" matches on a Monday, perhaps as others have suggested, they have restrictions on days of use of their ground. However, on this occasion I would think this suits us fine as we have a 'free' day today. At least the players can't claim they are tired, unless they are partying all weekend!! COYD

Not sure about that. They always played on a Monday at Writtle Street too. Officiated there a few times on Monday games. I loved that ground!

One thing that I did since the 2010-2011 season were files such as this:
https://www.thedarts.eu/national_south_2020_2021.zip
It contains TomTom .ov2 and Google Earth .kml files to the car parks (if they have one) for the grounds & also a text file
that contains, eg:
"Chelmsford City
Melbourne Stadium
Salerno Way
Chelmsford
Essex
CM1 2EH
Tel: 01245 290959
There is a car park at the stadium, and some parking available in nearby residential areas.
Other parking:
http://en.parkopedia.co.uk/parking/cm1_2eh/ "
and also a spreadsheet detailing the mileages etc.
But anyway, if you look at the Google Earth .KML file & zoom into Chelmsford, you will see the car park.
It was always a PITA to do, especially the spreadsheet.

So Chelmsford managed to grab a 91st minute equaliser this afternoon against 10 man Oxford City.
Fingers crossed we can bag a few goals against them on Monday as well as bagging all 3pts and extending our lead even more.
Especially as Oxford are now 2nd and Maidscum lost again today 0-2 at home to Dorking plus having another player sent off.
