SOUTHEND United's fans have their say on Saturday's 3-1 win against Bristol Rovers.
Young lads did us proud, what a player Lewis Gard is but also thought Shaughnessy had a great game. Referee almost cost us not giving us the pen in the first half. Did Elvis lack confidence to pass back to Gunnarsson? Great team performance.

Terrific performances all over the pitch, amazing work rate all afternoon,showed guts to recover from the goal conceded so quickly after the break. Blues played some lovely football with “veterans” JD Shaughnessy & Macca helping to lead the “kids” to a great win.Really enjoyed it.

What a day! Sol is an absolute genius, what he has done is nothing short of a miracle, we have the right man in charge that’s for sure. And Eren Kinali was a key part of the team, unbelievable performance from him!
@lukemayes8
Great performance and result from Southend, despite the non-payment of wages and having eight of the starting 11 aged 21 or under.
@JoePayne_
Under the circumstances, that starting 11 were a credit to the club.
@DanBasildonBlue
Solid performance all round and fully deserved the three points from minute one. Thought Mitchell Nelson was superb at right back and looks to be a lot more confident on the ball.

Shaughnessy man of the match for me. Outstanding game from him. Won pretty much everything that came his way and cleared up well when danger was there.
@TomRoss_
Two words, Joe Shaughnessy, absolute rock at the back. Egbri and Kinali both outstanding. Nice blend of youth and senior players.

Let’s not forget to praise Sol Campbell.
@Alan280208
Forgetting what’s going on upstairs, the players put in a performance to be proud of. They gave 110 per cent all over the pitch and the senior players stepped up big style. Delighted for Egbri with his first goal.

Great team performance with Shaughnessy outstanding.Sol has worked miracles with the small and very young squad he has available and deserves lots of credit.
@tommyharris57
A Great win and the entire team played superbly given everything going on at the club. Shaughnessy was man of the match for me but closely followed by a number of others.
@andyclose6
A great result and the youngsters are showing a lot of fight.
