Southend United will be holding their annual meet the Blues day at their Boots and Laces training ground this Sunday.

The excitement gets under way at around 11am as Steve Tilson puts his players through their paces in a light training session before a side packed full of former Shrimpers favour-ites takes on a celebrity XI.

Andy Ansah, Paul Sansome and Justin Edinburgh are all expected to take part in a friendly clash against a side organised by Shrimpers fanatic Terry Alderton.

The Blue Belles will also be in attendance, while the players will be available for photographs and autographs throughout the day.
