Our final word: A season that started under embargo with ownership in flux; a mid-season flirt with relegation; sneaking into the top 7 = just short of promotion after three ETs in front of nearly 30k Shrimpers. Disappointed? Of course. Proud? Damn right we are... #SUFCexiles
Our final word: Despite being a man down, Southend broke the Iron's resistance inspired by Leon's genius. Parillon was too hot to handle and Braintree were reeling when talisman GSM headed home. Blues need big characters to show up every time, not just some times... #SUFCexiles

Gubbins Watch: With a man advantage the Iron took control but didn't have things all their own way. In the space of five minutes Parillon shot narrowly wide and hit the post before GSM converted a Coker corner. Southend take 3 points. Classic derby! 💙👏💪⚽🥅👍👏💙 #SUFCexiles

Gubbins Watch: Austin and Spasov both had early sights of goal but Blues didn't have the half all their own way. Before the interval Goodliffe saw red for a pull. Uphill for Maher's men now. 0-0 at half time... #SUFCexiles
December 26, 2025 at 3:51 PM
Gubbins Watch: Injury doubt Goodliffe is fit to start. Miley and Spasov come back in. Collin continues between the sticks... #SUFCexiles

Braintree also have reason to be unhappy with the season, again flirting with relegation in their second campaign following promotion. A big Boxing Day all Essex affair with more than just bragging rights at stake for Blues, who need a reaction to the Tamworth loss... #SUFCexiles

We are going to stay where we are at the lower end of the play offs. Just hope we don't do a Gateshead & stay in the play off positions all season but drop out in the final week(s)

What Shrimpers wanted for Christmas was for Southend to fulfil their potential. Although the first half of the season has been superior to the same period last campaign, Maher's men have so far failed to live up to the heights of the run took them to the playoffs... #SUFCexiles
December 26, 2025 at 9:45 AM
Our final word: There are better sides than Blues in the NL right now, but Tamworth isn't one of them. Southend cannot afford to under perform if they are to have any hope of remaining in touch with the current top 6. Maher's men look set for another scrap for 7th... #SUFCexiles
December 20, 2025 at 8:39 PM
Gubbins Watch: Parillon and Walker combined to set up Coker to sweep home an early equaliser. With Blues looking more likely, Goodliffe had a shout for a penalty turned away before a low Lambs second. Spasov, Austin & Bridge were all unable to level up. Defeat 2-1... #SUFCexiles
December 20, 2025 at 7:26 PM
Gubbins Watch: Tamworth's long throw threat was to the fore early and Collin spilled the third one for a tap in. That knocked Blues composure for a time and buoyed the hosts. Collin tipped another effort over to keep the HT deficit at one. Improvements needed... #SUFCexiles
December 20, 2025 at 6:18 PM
Gubbins Watch: Boyes and Morton start for Blues today. Bridge and Miley miss out... #SUFCexiles

Despite a dip in league form, Tamworth remain safe in mid table. However the Lambs remain dangerous and are still going well in both Trophy & NL Cup, most recently turning over Man Utd U21s on the astroturf at home in the latter. Can Blues get a first win there today? #SUFCexiles
December 20, 2025 at 10:30 AM
Three weeks after Blues last completed an NL fixture, Shrimpers must wait a few hours more for Maher's men to run out at teatime. Southend successfully leant on their squad depth in the Trophy last Saturday and may need to again today as injury niggles persist... #SUFCexiles

FA Trophy fourth round draw: Southend have been drawn to visit Bath City... Tie is scheduled to take place on 10 January... #SUFCexiles
December 15, 2025 at 5:06 PM
Southend's last 32 FA Trophy opponent will be revealed on Talk Sport 2 after 5pm this afternoon. Blues are ball 28 and ties are scheduled for 10 January... Who do you want Shrimpers? #SUFCexiles
December 15, 2025 at 3:03 PM
Our final word: Serene progress to R4 for Southend who were too good for Truro. Valuable game time for the likes of Collin, Cardwell, Parillon, Walker & Bridge provides Maher with options ahead of the festive period. Kendall's welcome return adds further firepower... #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 9:37 PM
Gubbins Watch: Bridge set up Walker to head home a third after the break and Jack then found the net himself with a deflected effort. Southend cruise to victory and into the 4th Round. 4-0! 💙👏👍⚽⚽⚽⚽🥅💪👏💙 #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 4:54 PM
Gubbins Watch: Southend had the better of the opening exchanges but without creating against a Truro side happy to soak up the pressure. Coker and Austin combined to set up Cardwell for the opener before Bridge struck from distance. Blues on top. 2-0 at HT.. #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Gubbins Watch: Blues make changes but Collin continues in goal and Cards up top... #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 2:18 PM
A durable Truro made life difficult for Southend on Cornish turf in August but the Tinners have been unable to build on that promise & remain rooted to the foot of the NL. Freed from relegation worries today could they again prove tough to beat in Essex in the Trophy? #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 10:31 AM
After another frustrating trip to Rochdale, Maher's men return to action in the FA Trophy. With NL sides entering the competition at the third round, a home debut this season gives the Roots Hall faithful the opportunity to roar Blues towards the last 32 again... #SUFCexiles
December 13, 2025 at 9:45 AM
Our final word: The weather won at Spotland again. Blues handled conditions and the opposition well until Collin lost control of the wet ball that brought Dale level. The contest became farcical and the referee eventually took the only viable course of action... 🙄 #SUFCexiles
December 6, 2025 at 7:01 PM
Gubbins Watch: With bad conditions worsening, Collin's error gifted an equaliser and the hosts struck the bar with Blues reeling. With 15 to play GSM's back pass stopped on the sodden surface for Dale's second before the game was stopped & eventually called off... A-A #SUFCexiles
December 6, 2025 at 5:03 PM
Gubbins Watch: Blues press yielded immediate results with Southend feeding the ball to Boyes to cross for Coker to sweep home early. Dale fired narrowly wide mid way through the half but GSM forced a save from a Boyes corner as Blues finished strongly. 1-0 up at HT... #SUFCexiles
December 6, 2025 at 3:48 PM
Gubbins Watch: Cardwell marks his return with a start but, just as important, Slavi is fit to go, Taylor returns from suspension, Collin gets the nod between the sticks and Kendall makes the bench... #SUFCexiles
