SOUTHEND United head coach Kevin Maher said having to watch Saturday’s draw with Dagenham & Redbridge from the directors box made little difference.
Maher was unable to watch from the side of the pitch due to a one match touchline ban.
But the Blues boss insists it made no impact on the game.
“Daz (Darren Currie) and Benno (Mark Bentley) know the game so it’s not an issue,” said Maher.
“Sometimes you see the bigger picture up there too so I don’t think it made too much difference.”
Maher will be back on the touchline for Tuesday night’s match with Dorking Wanderers at Roots Hall.
