That was my point. They were not part of our norm fan base. Day trippers basically.

Always enjoyed Spotland and yesterday just marred by the very small minority

Southend Fan here

Just to say well done to you guys yesterday, to fair we have relapsed back into our cannot be bothered form again and deserved to lose.

Ref: the trouble.
To be fair guys, we met and spoke to loads of Dale fans prior to match, all off them being very polite and friendly. The so called Southend fans kicking off at the front were not Southend fans. Speaking to the liaison officers it seems we had a few west ham/spurs fans (sorry kids) in the away end that caused the problems. During the first half they were in the food/drink area necking pints, not watching the game.
You could tell by the Southend fans chanting at them we wasn't happy about it.
We all have our muppets who sometimes turn up, and yesterday it was mainly caused by the free coaches laid on by the club which seemed to attract them. I'm not sure about outside after the match and I didn't see it but probably the same group.
I am sure the hard core Dale fans know we generally have a good following and mostly behave themselves.

Well done again, nice meeting some of you yesterday. If we can somehow survive meaning beating Sunderland next week

we might see you next season. More than likely in about 3 years when we get promoted back to L1.
