When I was eyeing up February a few weeks ago, Southend away was one of several favourable looking games across the course of the month. Now it’s on the horizon, as has happened a lot this season, it looks a whole lot trickier.

When we played them in late November, I thought they looked a poor side, and were beaten by an out of sorts Town side. However, since Christmas they’ve won 7 and drawn 2 in the league, having lost 0. They’ve also won their last 4, including a 2-0 victory at home to Bromley.

Add to that the virtually inevitable Harry Cardwell goal, we’re going to have to be absolutely on it on the night. This is a game we badly need to win in my opinion.

Every team should be given sufficient respect regardless of league position.

Southend are playing promotion form currently, so will be firm opposition for Town to beat.

The one good thing is that they will want 3 points, so should want to play more open football against us in order to try to win.

It will be a strong challenge for Town to overcome.

Top form needed on the night !!

Unfortunately BT Sport seem to prefer broadcasting games Saturday teatime at the moment, shame.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
