1000+ on a Tuesday night will be an excellent turnout RHB, our board said you’d sell out in an hour.
They know f all about fans and as certainly showed down the years at our club.
Why the pathetic 402 fans for the league game? Were there travel issues.
I think the lower than usual Shrimper turnout at the league fixture was probably just due to the fact that out of the previous 12 matches, 3 had been at Roots Hall and 9 had been away (the match at yours being the tenth!). Wallets were probably feeling the pinch, I think.
Seriously? That’s miles different from what I’ve seen.
With the possible exception of a few X or Facebook infants, nobody connected with Southend is saying we’ve already won. Far from it. There is definitely a feeling of hopeful confidence among some, just based on the fact that we have been in our best form of the season so far.
Certainly nothing remotely worthy of adding any ‘spice’ – not even the eternally unused Chinese 5 Spice at the back of the cupboard.
