“At this stage of the season it’s a point gained. Roots Hall is a very difficult place to come. Southend, in the type of form that they are in, are a very difficult team to play.<\/p>\n

“You have to remember that we played last Saturday and on Tuesday as well and at this stage of the season the energy is a huge factor and, under these circumstances, I thought the boys applied themselves well.<\/p>\n

“Jason is not suffering from burn-out. He had three shots today off target and the penalty against the wind which he scored.<\/p>\n

“Jason held the ball up really well, he occupied both the centre-halves for the whole game. I think he was a tower of strength for us and he gives us a starting point to start playing our football from.<\/p>\n

“Our approach is exactly the same although there are eight games left. There are big challenges at home and away and we look forward to every one.<\/p>\n

“As a club, we keep trying to progress in certain departments and that’s what we are doing.”<\/p>\n

"It was a tough game and the conditions made it hard<\/p>\n

"You had two good footballing sides and it made it difficult to get ball down and play.<\/p>\n

"Overall though, we created enough chances to have won the game.<\/p>\n

"The lads showed great energy and there is a lot of belief here.<\/p>\n

"I was disappointing not to have taken three points, but we are on a good run of form.<\/p>\n

"We can't be too down today because we were playing against a top side and a point is not a bad result. <\/p>\n

"It was a fantastic delivery by Charlie and a great header by Hal at the end of the first half for us to score.<\/p>\n

"It was a good time for us to equalise and to be honest, throughout the match I thought we looked dangerous from set pieces.<\/p>\n

"I thought we should have had a second half penalty when Lee Barnard was pulled back in the box, but the referee didn't see it.<\/p>\n

"We have to keep believing in ourselves and it will be no different on Monday at Swindon, in what will be another tough game – especially away from home."<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
