A tough one to take last night.

I wasn’t sure what I was expecting from Scunthorpe but what I will say is this. You are the biggest nastiest and direct side we have faced this season.

We had no answer to the constant press and constant bombardedment. I’m not sure your midfield saw much of the ball. There were so many pushes in the back and the referee was possibly the worst we have faced this season, albeit you could have had a pen. Some of the decision making was criminal.

That said. You did a complete number on us. We cant seem to play against teams like that and resorted to mirroring your play which was never going to end well.

As for our manager. Joker, has no plan B and left better players on the bench but he has done that all season. Hopefully we get a change in the summer.

Scunthorpe definitely deserved the win on the win and we’re the better team but haven’t seen a team literally hoof everything like that for a while and your two strikers gave us a torrid time.

Good luck against Rochdale but personally hope they or Carlisle go up as they will lead a title charge again next year if they don’t.

Afternoon Iron fans.

I don’t think any Southend fans are thinking it will be an easy match.

I think we will bring close to 1200 fans on the night. A great effort considering arrangements being made so close to the game.

Trains weren’t an option due to silly prices and the threat of being stranded if the game goes to extra time etc.

We managed to get a minibus at short notice, so have 16 of us on that heading up. Got a few other pals going up in a camper van.

Good luck to you and may the best team on the night win.

Any ideas where is best to go for food and beers pre match as we will likely arrive about 4pm.

Cheers
