Come On You Shrimpers!!!

With the traditionally benign relationship with little Orient having been sullied by the endless whinging about the Olympic stadium from pugnacious Barry Hearn, many Hammers fans have adopted Southend as their ‘little’ team. With a host of players switching between the clubs over the years, no doubt Southend  will have some additional support today as they welcome Burton Albion to the East End on Sea for the League two semi-final second leg where they need to pull back from a 1-0 deficit from the first leg.

Let’s hope the Shrimpers do better today than they did when Bobby Moore ‘enjoyed’ his spell at the club!
