Fantastic Support

[Guest]

Just like to say how amazing the support was tonight. I didn't hear any bad mouthing about players. Once they scored their first, the support didn't go all silent, but in fact burst out all in song showing our support for the team!

Had a great night but well done to everybody in the Shrimpers end that made the atmosphere. I can't remember hearing the Hamsters sing, and at the end when all that was echoing around Upon Park was...

Southend & We're Proud Of It

... just amazing.

[Its grim up north!]

It certainly was amazing was'nt it?

Very proud to be a shrimper.

Still can't believe they let scum like that sit above away supporters though! It's not on.

If we can play like that against a Championship side then im sure we can up our peformance in league 2.

Well done to ALL who made the atmosphere fantastic!

The southend support tonight, was about 10 times louder than the west ham fans, and i think the great support acted as a 12th man for the shrimpers on the pitch, and it certianly showed in the southend performance.

West Ham supporters were embarrassing- SUFC outstanding !

 

[Barmy Army]

The support was infact superb. Singing almost constantly throughout the match.

West Ham only started "singing" when they were winning.

"One song...you've only got one song...you've only got one song"

('Bubbles' if you were wondering)

Throat feeling very sore today but hell its worth it!! Sang our hearts for the blues last night and it was a pleasure to see the 11 blues on the pitch play their hearts out for the blues!! Great Night.....hopefully the lift we needed!!

Fantastic support last night from the Shrimpers faithful, we can be proud of both ourselves and the team

Magnificent support - it was nice to hear for once complete backing for the team without the usual "Maher you're s**t" etc etc. It's just a shame we didn't get the goal that noth the team and the fans deserved.

Cry on the tele, we saw you cry on the tele !!!!!

 

[Kent Shrimper]

Can only underline what has already been said, absolutley cracking support.

Makes you Proud to be a Shrimper  

P.S. It was also great to meet so many of you off here

Spot on.

I'd be far more impressed with our support if they actually got behind the team when we are struggling at home in a game we were expected to win.

Its one thing raising your game for a one-off glamourous cup match in which you have nothing to lose, its another thing to produce it week in, week out against the likes of Macclesfield, Bristol Rovers and Rushden.

That applies equally to the fans as it does to players like Kevin Maher.

Outstanding support, sang our hearts out and 'Southend, and we're proud of it' at the end was something that I'll always remember. Completely embarased the home fans, they were rubbish and those 15 year old chavs in the corner near us were so funny, especially when they left after about half an hour

Best atmosphere at a Southend game I've ever heard, hardly any moaning.
