Southend United reaches New York!

[Target man]

Just spoke to the owner of this bar , Legends Football Factory, near Times Square, New York, and sold the Southend story. He now owns this Southend shirt, and it's proudly displayed at the bar as a permanent fixture. Has a better spot than the Newcastle shirt! Lol

If you come to New York, come find the bar!

I think I watched us lose a play-off semi-final to Doncaster in that bar in 2008 with two other Shrimpers who were based in New York at the time!

Just checked my messages from 2008 and it was the Irish pub on 7th and 54th that I watched the game with @Benji91 and @CrystalPalaceShrimper!

I remember watching the game at Donny, I took my two kids out of school early and drove up for the game. We were hoping to overturn a 0:1 first leg at RH, but got thumped 5:1 . I think the biggest memory of the game was after the final whistle and the respect the Donny players and fans gave to the Shrimpers away support. They were full of admiration for our unwavering support of our team even in the face of a Semi final defeat.

Can’t wait to get back to the days of crunch matches in Play offs or cups, great days even if the results didn’t always drop our way.

Actually it’s was 0-0 in first leg. Walker hit the bar after 10 minutes, then suddenly we got over run before half time as we was 3-0 down.
