IT’S A SHRIMPER PITCH INVASION!

On 19 May 1906 in the Blue Boar, our beloved Southend United was formed. To mark the 118th anniversary of this special day we have produced a fantastic new print entitled ‘Southend United Pitch Invasion’.

On the print are the names of every player since 1906 who has notched up at least 100 first team appearances for us (plus a few merit cases – we couldn’t leave out Stanley!).

So close and yet….

Another season is over, and we can only rue what might have been given some changes in just a few key areas. To finish marginally shy of the play-offs was some achievement given the circumstances Kevin Maher and his team had to contend with during the 2022/23 campaign.
