Southend United ‏@SUFCRootsHall
Barry Corr makes the bench for the first time in 17 months and Smith is Under 18 keeper Ted Smith.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Not a bad side then after all the rumours of various knocks and injuries. Big chance for Benyon or you feel he will be next out the door. Great to see Barry back though.

 

[onceknownasrab]

Will barker be at left back or prosser? not there today so am rooting them on via bbc essex. That line up is good enough to win.

 

[Beverly Hills Cop Blue]

Certainly is on paper a good squad considering but I would point out around 4 or 5 of those may have been slightly rushed back earlier than what would ideally been anticipated. Don't matter though as long as the team wins.

 

[undercovershrimper]

You can pretty much assume that Corr wont be coming on at any point a la eastwood on tuesday night

 

[MK Shrimper]

Under 18 called Ted :hilarious: sounds in his 80's!

 

[LennySUFC]

Absolutely brilliant touch for Harry in the tunnel for the east greens and blacks, couldn't find my post though ;(

 

[WightShrimper]

I think BBBC may come on later to give our front line some stature, replacing the shorter Benyon.

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Corner for us..............Assombablonga heads just over

 

[BrettieAngell]

I would be absolutely amazed if Corr came on.

How are we playing?

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

OK.Cureton started brightly for them.Been quiet since then.

Indeed, I think we will see Freddy first and Corr as an absolute last resort though.

How are we playing?

The boys from AAS say we've had our chances, but so have they > https://twitter.com/AllAtSeaFanzine

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Good to see PS playing 2 wingers again at home.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

"Prosser's had a good first half".Amazing.Perhaps he should play centre -half more often.:unsure:

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

Traditionally low scoring gamesbetween Southend and Exeter.This sounds no diifferent.0-0 HT.

 

[philtalkin]

We are looking good. Cureton the main threat for them.

Think Benyon should drop deep and push Assombawassisname on a bit.

 

[South Bank Hank]

It's been a good game so far. Not many clear cut chances but BOTH teams trying to play football.

Bentley rarely tested but good kicking and distribution from his throws.

We're passing it around a bit but frustratingly still trying to deliver balls onto Benyon's head.

Great to see Eastwood and BBBC knocking the ball around during the warm ups.

Better game from Timlin who seems to have found his passing boots today.

Come on Southend.
