Good grief - is the man of the match award sponsored by specsavers?
Without coming over all Wiggy, how Daryl didnt get it I'll never know. He's the reason why theres a 0 in Southend 2 Rotherham 0. An outstanding performance, how he saved that pointblank shot...
Rotherham were dirty. I was going to praise the ref as he let a lot go, but unfortunately it got out of hand near the end. Point in question, Guttridge and a Rotherham player are called together to be told to pack it in, a minute later the same player scythes Gutts down right in front of the referee. Maher seemed to be targeted, brought down in front of the Rotherham box he was then surrounded by 4 Rotherham players having a go at him. Telling the bloke who fouled him to **** off most emphatically, Maher was later kicked sneakily by another Rotherham player when the action was on the other side of the pitch. A dirty team indeed, with a hilarious ginger ballerina who fell to the ground with the slightest of touches.
Im also tempted to bump the Goater is Tilly's worst buy thread, 2 goals in 2 games isnt bad going, and he assisted Freddy in his goal. Not bad at all. Freddy had some confidence issues at first, his first touch was poor at the beginning and he kept giving the ball away. Cue 'Da da da da' from the West Stand, and when he went to score the goal you could pretty much feel the fans willing him on.
Bentley spooned it from pretty much a couple of yards, but 2-0 up you cant complain, and the biggest laugh came from the ref diving to the ground trying to avoid a Southend cross field pass.
Bradbury looks committed in the short time he was on, and Sodje had still exudes confidence, saying that we missed Barrett and who was that bloke surging up field at one point? It looked suspiciously like Spinner to me.
Back to the top of the table.
There were ticket problems at the west stand as well, minutes before kick off there were huge queues at the west stand ticket office. Perhaps more a sign of our continued success
As a last point praise to the few blokes at the back of the West Stand who kept trying to get chants started, they were very determind without success
