....give him a great reception on Saturday, this club means a lot to him and he's given us great service and didn't deserve what happened at Brighton - our most committed and probably best player now Freddy's gone.
I'd also hope those coming back with the Gills on Saturday get receptions akin to that of Wayne Gray - Benno, Juppy (much as he often terrified me!!) and to some extent Efe all played their part in a very successful time for Southend United and like Gray deserve a warm reception for this reason.
Also as a youngster (mid-teens) during the 90's in the old second tier I had the great privilege of supporting one of the very best goalkeepers Southend United have ever had in Simon Royce (and after "Sammy" I never thought I'd say that). QPR was one of the very few home games I missed last season so I'm not sure what kind of reception Roycey got (presumably a great one?) but I sincerely hope he is also warmly received at the weekend......with maybe a few "Woooooooaaaahhhh - it's Roycey!!!" chants to reminisce to.
;)
Above all though let's get behind the team lads, there's no way we're as bad as some would have us believe on here and although we have a huge problem to be addressed I don't anticipate us being down there for too long.
Up the Bloooooz!!!!!
