Hooper's last game on Saturday

Gary Hooper will play his last game for the Bulls on Saturday before returning to Southend.

This from the Official Southend Website:

The 21-year-olds loan extension was for a maximum of 93 days, which cannot be extended, and means the youngster falls one week short of completing the season with Hereford.

However, Hooper will return to Roots Hall in fine form as Southend look to master mind a play-off triumph.

There appears to have been some confusion about Hooper's loan as originally, on Feb 28th, Southend had said the loan was for the rest of the season.
