Our scheduled Vanarama National League fixture at Southend United has been postponed because of a number of positive Covid-19 cases in the Shrimpers’ squad.

The Bees were set to travel to Roots Hall on Tuesday 28th December but the match has now been postponed to a later date.

Southend informed the National League that they would be unable to fulfil tomorrow’s fixture following a number of positive Coronavirus cases in their camp.

A date for the rearranged game will be announced as soon as possible.
