Itโs a festering cesspool of inbreeding. Most of their fans have wooden teeth and their chairman makes Shrek feel good about his looks. Bit of respect for Braintree please, Hersey. After all, it is represented by the supremely talented and massively sincere James Cleverley. I am still scarred by that hideous 3-2 defeat we suffered there many years ago, when it took us 86 minutes to muster an attempt on goal and when the rain was of biblical proportions all day. Tbf I listed its good points. Good luck to those who are going. I hope youโre not eaten by the locals or sacrificed to a pagan God. Iโm in Lille for Olympic basketball

For those of us who live not-in-Braintree but close-enough-to-have-Cleverly-as-their-MP I am deeply upset at some of the comments being made here...although not as upset as I am at having Cambridge play 15 minutes away and not be able to make it. Any other day this fortnight...

That's in the running for one of my worst ever experiences at/of a football match. Doesn't beat Histon (A) when they thrashed us.

Great to see the youngsters prominent in the squad again.

Who's there then. What's the formation?
Looks like a four at the back from that squad list...?

There's someone on twitter tipping us for relegation because a half first team half youth team side is drawing 0-0 with Braintree. WE ARE BACK GUYS ๐๐๐๐๐

Great to see the youngsters prominent in the squad again. Don't get used to it. Itโs a 5-3-2 with one of the 3 (Holmes) being more defensive. Could be seen as a 3-5-2 or even a 3-3-2-2 if youโre feeling saucy. Stevens Gibbo-Okedina-Morrison-Dandrew-Barton Digby-Holmes-McConnell Kaunda-Njoku We are pressing high and aggressively. When weโre on the ball weโre playing it cleverly down the wing, but if options are limited weโre happy to play it longer. EDIT: I replied to the complete wrong post. The Essex air is clogging my brain.
