Southend United 5-1 Morecambe. Five goals. Five different scorers.
In Episode 36 of The Custard Splat, Scott W and Scott B react to Southend United’s dominant 5-1 win over Morecambe... arguably the most complete National League performance of the season so far.
We break down:
• GSM and Harry Boyes proving exactly why the wingback system works (Oli, you’ll have your right of reply 👀)
• A huge moment for Tom Hopper as he scores his first goal of the 2025/26 campaign
• Why the reaction from his teammates says everything about his standing in the squad
• Whether this result finally signals momentum ahead of Brackley

They want equal treatment.
And here’s the thing, Sadie is just as passionate about the men’s game as she is about the women’s. This isn’t about division. It’s about growth.
