A gutsy display by this group secured a point and if it wasn’t for Derek Tebay on goal it could have been another defeat. 0-0 at half time after a stop start first half. A dodgy penalty decision gave Southend the opportunity but up stepped Derek to stop the penalty.
Southend did take the lead with a neat header but fair play to the lads for battling on and young James Blackmore forced a handball from a defender and up stepped Kieran O’Brien to equalize. Point gained.
