This forum does trend towards the more negative, but the first two games have not been promising and we are a club that expects to get out of this league. We see the division above as our baseline and any worries of underperformance and regression at this level will get people antsy. I am sure many Southend fans would feel like this too, given we are both traditional league clubs.
Anyway, all the best with the season. Have a soft spot for Southend since we both went through the turmoil of bad owners and nearly going bust at the same time. Every Southend fan I have seen has always been sympathetic towards us for it and I saw some donate to our fundraiser at the lowest ebb.
