Get in there! What a result, well done boys.

Great win and unbelievable support from the travelling fans. Congratulations to Freddie Ladapo on his debut. Don’t know about his singing though!
@druyearwood
Happy to make my Southend debut and get the three points. Boys were terrific.
@ladapo9
Big thank you for all the kind messages of support I’ve received. Not too sure on the extent of the injury yet but keeping my fingers crossed it’s nothing too serious.
@jonnywhite25
Great win. The boys put in a great shift. The hard work is paying off for us at the moment. Sticking together as a group is what it's all about. Fans who travelled were amazing throughout the whole game.

Lots of talk about our three new deadline day signings but we have a fourth in Michael Kightly. Completely ineffective under Phil Brown, he is a different player now. Working hard, tackling back, taking defenders on and causing untold trouble. Brilliant again
@davidagoody
Thought we worked hard and battled for the full 100 plus minutes. We never gave up and defended for our lives. We might be considered slightly fortunate to take all three points but delighted with the teamwork, spirit and pure guts we showed.
@kristofshrimper
Excellent, hard working performance against a decent team. Exactly what we had stopped doing under Brown. Best away day in ages.
@moorhouse79
This made me remember why I love Southend.
@liamo240
Heart, commitment, togetherness and the will to play for the manager. Been a while since we’ve witnessed that. The spontaneous huddle at the end said it all.
@matt_innes5
The inclusion of Yearwood has given us an injection of youth to balance our ageing squad. Great three points.
@phillsilver9
Brilliant from start to finish. 11 men out there giving everything for the fans and team. Worked their socks off for all 100 plus minutes.
@samgoody23
Fantastic team display. They all fought for every ball. Yearwood was superb. Such a shame about Jonny White. Made some crucial interceptions and was sorry to see him stretchered off.
@robertaskew7
Played with the spirit and team-work that had been missing under Brown. Incredible work-rate and togetherness too.
