Game watched: Burton Albion 3-1 Southend United
Football in December 2010 was virtually wiped out by heavy snowfall at the start of the month and again around Christmas. If only this fixture had been decided by the Pools Panel as well. The Blues were simply dreadful, something which even an early second half goal could not disguise. Burton's modern stadium is neat, compact and has a large terrace for away fans - and it's in the brewing capital of England. What's not to like?
