It’s A New Name At The Top As Southend Shine For Their Fans

By Sam Elliott

We kick-off the Bank Holiday weekend with new Vanarama National League leaders following a handful of Friday night games.

It’s Solihull Moors at the summit despite being pegged back at home to FC Halifax Town.

They take over from Barnet until tomorrow at least after Josh Kelly’s first half goal was levelled up by Jo Cummings as the Shaymen take home a point.

Southend United ended a tough week with three points at home to Eastleigh.

The damage was done in the first half, they scored the opener through Noor Husin before a fourth goal of the season already for Harry Cardwell confirmed the victory.

The game of the night came in greater Manchester as Rochdale and Bromley played out a 2-2 draw in a match which saw both sides reduced to ten men.

Chinwike Okoli put the visitors in front on 15 minutes before Tyrese Sinclair’s double turned the game on its head.

But the away side took home a point thanks to the reliable Michael Cheek, and he did it when the visitors had a man disadvantage.

Bromley still haven’t won but three straight draws has lifted the mood for manager Andy Woodman.

Where next?
