Town v Southend by boat 15:20 - May 15 with 833 views

I might have been eating too much cheese but I seem to remember a story about when Southend played at Portman Road in the 1930s they travelled by boat. Could that be right?

You’re correct. First game in the football league for Town in 1938. Read about it in the brilliant “The Men who made the Town”.

The following season they travelled to Hundon, on diggers.
