Memorable Games that will never make a top 10 list !

[Mr. Benedict]

I remember the officials having to walk straight past us cos the tunnel was in the same corner of the ground we were in an i'm pretty sure every single one of the 2,000 Southend fans were all shouting "****er, ****er, ****er"!

Eastwood's equaliser was a beauty out of nothing, great goal!

We were so unlucky in that game. The own goal was a freakish one that was pure bad luck, and Flavs was flattened by one of their players in the box for their second - the ref had given him a yellow for an identical challenge minutes earlier but chickened out of giving us a free-kick as he would have had to send the chap off :p

Then they had a goal disallowed for offside in the last minute as well! I remember Ritchie complaining at the time "it went in off their player so how can it be offside...."

emotional rollercoaster that day, their disallowed goal should have stood on hindsight but to lose after that come back would have been sickening.

But John their player was offside. I believe the ball came off Barrett and went in. Barrett was marking the offside player so therefore is an active player

My first away game, and thinking from that game we would go on and win the league
