What a shit mascot. The costume like something you'd get from a charity shop or a cheap fancy dress shop. Looked like a mouse with bee stripes? Definitely not a hornet. Banging that sodding drum too.

Worst you've ever seen on the road?

Best was the QPR one who picked up someone's baby and pretended to run off with it. For comedy value.

I didn't take much notice of the mascot until it started banging the drum.
Tinpot mascot, tinpot club and fans.

The one who used to wear the straw hat at Luton was quite bad.

The Southend United mascot looks like a lovechild of Paul Daniels' Wizbit and the Rabbit.

Didn't Southend used to have a pink shrimp mascot that looked rather fallic from a distance?

It's a shrimp as Southend's nickname is the shrimpers

A member of the Klu-Klux-Klan, I think. He transferred from Burnley.

The body popping in front of us all before kick-off was particularly annoying

With no bars, no food, 1960's toilets and a couple of cheap bus shelters for the managers and coaches, set against the backdrop of a building site.....then the mascot was on par with the rest of the surroundings.
Really makes you appreciate our ground.....if not the display of our players today.
