SOUTHEND United fans have their say on Wednesday night's 3-1 win at Forest Green Rovers. 

Quality from start to finish. Three great goals, have rewatched the Ferguson goal about 30 times. More of this for the rest of the season please!

@HobdayLewis

Amazing performance. Take away the Bolton game, that's three great results against teams at the top. All round superb display from everyone who played. And some beautiful goals aswell. The confidence boost from that result will be immense.

@PJDW3

A fantastic result, apart from the mistake against Bolton, we have performed well against the so called top teams in this league over the past four games. With Ranger, Olayinka, Mellis and Egbri to come in plus the option of Holmes getting upto speed, we really have a good chance.

@ScottyBarber12

Wow just wow! Goal of the season already tied up surely! Just goes to show there isn’t much difference in this league as not been impressed with the so called ‘top teams’. MM seems to get it spot on tactically away despite the comments before the game. Now just the home form!

@wheeliosmaximus

There are 1440 minutes in a day so I can watch the two minute highlights package 720 times tomorrow,

@timgriff1977

Incredible result and it honestly felt like it had been coming. The signs that we are a much better outfit than earlier in the season have been there for a while. Molesley is building something here. I feel more confident now about staying up than ever.

@documartin

Wonderful team performance topped off with two great goals and one outstanding goal. Defensively looked very sound again and should really have kept a clean sheet. Now must repeat this type of performance again on Saturday!

@Strutty27

Forced ourselves into playing more positively tonight after the weekend and last night’s scores and this is the result. We have the personnel, we have the manager, and judging by this match, we have the confidence. Just need the consistency.

@piershewitt

Absolutely amazing. Seven points taken from the top three teams in the league, shows how far we have come!! Still no goals for our strikers but great link up play by them tonight! Just got to iron out the mistakes (Ox v Bolton) then we look a good team!

@hund85

Great performance and result when we needed it the most. The boys look comfortable in this system away from home. Maybe we pick up the points we need away. Be good if MM can find a system to win home games as well. Much more attacking midfield today. Everyone was an 8 tonight.

@AdamMarsh000

Absolutely brilliant performance from everyone, topped off with three brilliant goals. The three points are massive but mean little if we can not follow this up on Saturday. Akinola, White or Hobson man of the match.

@KetchleyShane

Superb performance and a desperately needed win after last night's results. Shoot on sight must be the lesson learnt tonight.But we must back this up at home Saturday and beyond as we can’t afford to go on anymore losing runs this season now as we’re running out of games.

@tommyharris57

A great result against a strong team, Emile did really well leading the line.

@pinkywheeler

Much better performance and at long last the message about having a shot, even from distance has sunk in. Akinola perseverance for the second goal was awesome and the final goal was a worldie. Only negative? Acquah strolling around the pitch contributes very little.

@BigShrimp

Good positive performance with outrageous goals. Midfield much improved, great credit to Sim for creativity in the second goal too. Taylor was good and I’m a fan of Ferguson, even before THAT goal. Keep playing positively and the great escape may be on.

@thedove01

Unreal from everyone today! Best performance for so long and we actually decided to shoot for once, and look, it paid off! Shame none of our strikers scored which is worrying but not going to take away the fact that we played so well!

@preshedge2

Ferguson should be nominated for the Puskas award, If that was a Colchester player I'd say the same thing. Brilliant goal to reflect a brilliant performance.

@TweetGraystone

The players were under huge pressure after the results yesterday and have really delivered tonight. Fantastic performance. They didnt know what hit them @therealdaddsy

We shoot! We score! Oxley was excellent as well.

@Raycrud

It’s all down to that beautiful kit, we must play in it forever.

@NHanshaw8

Great team spirit and three great goals. Keep playing like that and let’s drag Col U down instead
