The football season is almost upon us once again and there's plenty for us to get stuck into.

Scott, Scotty & OG look at Southend United's pre-season campaign, discuss the performances that have caught the eye, the players who have impressed most, and whether the Shrimpers are ready for the new season.

We also debate who should wear the captain's armband, why the search for a proven striker remains the biggest priority, and the daunting task of replacing the 50 goals that walked out of the door this summer through player departures.

Plus, we give our thoughts on the current state of the Roots Hall pitch ahead of the opening game of the campaign and what needs to improve before the season gets underway.
