THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK
Life President⭐⭐
I thought it was, but I must be wrong.
Had to go to Toys'r'us in Basildon today to pick up something for my daughter, and I was wearing my old Southend bobble hat which has the Southend crest and S.U.F.C on the side as well. This is something I sometimes wear in London when travelling on the tube as I am proud to show the team I support. I get the odd silly comment, but I'm in London and expect it.
But walking from the shopping centre car park to Toysrus, I gets negative comments from Three different sets of lads, the last one being ''Huh Southend, they're Wan kers'', to which I kindly replied '' They're your local, proper league club, Brain Dead''.
I was sadly the only person wearing any Southend gear in Basildon, it was a busy friday shopping day and this Town that is only a few miles down the road does not seem to have any connection to S.U.F.C. at all.
I know we have a few supporters from there, but we should have well over a thousand, location wise. It could be an untapped goldmine for the future.
