Oldham Athletic 1, Southend United 1, Boundary Park, Vandarama National League, 7th September-24

Myself and Alexander travelled down to see Oldham Athletic play Southend United at Boundary Park, We left Cupar at 6am and got down to Oldham via Manchester at half-twelve. We booked into our hotel and arrived at The Rifle Range pub for a few beers. WE met up with Dave Roberts who l have known since 1987.

The game itself was very poor for latics who struggled to get going in the first half.it was no surprize when Southend scored the opening goal.

Second half they were much better and had a really good spell when they levelled the game when Mike Fondop headed home. They were unlucky a few times not to go ahead, but Southend players were going down for treatment too easy for what we saw. 

It took the pressure off them and the game ended 1-1. A fair result in the end and it was Alexanders's first visit to Boundary Park.

After the game we had a few drinks in the sports bar at Boundary Park, it was good and we had great company as usual. Around 7pm myself and Alexander had a good meal for our tea, we then headed back to our room for a relaxed time to watch tv and freshen up.

Next morning we had Breakfast which was great, and headed down town to see some sights mainly for Alexander. We then got the bus back to Piccadilly for thr the train home to Cupar we done well and were home at 5pm.
