Our Support in Essex

Post by aylesburyos »

Should imagine the bulk of our support lives in Essex? Any particular areas where it is strongest or least?I presume on the Central Line going East. I was born in Leyton & moved to Aylesbury, Bucks when very young so have no idea

Rayleigh and I know of some in Wickford aswell.
When I returned home from from the Playoff final in 2014, the Liverpool st - Southend train was rammed with O's supporters and fans getting off at Billericay, Wickford and still loads on the train after my Rayleigh stop, so possibly some in Southend aswell.

I was surprised on the same Play Off final that there was a family of O's at Aylesbury station on the way & then lots got on at High Wycombe. Coming home there were around 10 O's supporters getting off at Aylesbury

I guess the nos were not sufficient? Maybe fans prefer the flexibility & like having a few beers in E10 or other parts of London after
