What a result! Time to kick on now and see where we can go. Simon Cox give em some then.

When I say the last month or so has been the hardest of my life personally and to continue putting in a shift for the club/lads/management/fans has been hard but something I'm paid to do. To socre today was such a relief as I'm sure you could see. Thank you is all I can say.

@scoxy31real

Great feeling being back in the team. Three points and clean sheet.

FANS

Really good stuff. Much better than last week. Very impressed by Mantom and Cox, Fortune and Turner all very good. Rotherham very ineffective for their position. Can we play teams in high positions every week?

@samgoody23

No mention of the word pitch from anyone. Southend must have won!

@georgegrimes2

The Shrimpers made a top four side look ordinary, not as easy as it sounds. Now it is a case of getting another win so we can all relax and focus on next season.

@phillsilver9

Great to get back to winning ways and to see Coxy back on the score-sheet. Good performance from all the lads and yet another stunning stop from man of the season Mark Oxley. Solid first half from Sam Mantom and Turner was immense at the back.

@djmikejolly

Turner a rock at the back. Great work rate from all. Shame if Scunthorpe won’t part with Mantom next season as he would be a great asset. Pleased for Cox getting his goal.

@philjd52

I think we got a wee bit of luck that we weren’t getting under Phil Brown. That sometimes happens under a new manager and long may it continue.

@glentiesbhoy

One defeat in 10, a lot better performance. Just seven points off the play-offs.

@southendandy

Good win. Ox and Cox played well, so did Elvis.
