    Adam Hammill left over two years ago.

    You haven’t been for a long while have you?

    Did he mean Hallam?

    That’ll be me and Awaywego you’re getting at then, Alcy.

    Sorry for attending the game and boring those who don’t go any more.

    But hey! This is a fans forum after all. And yes, the football was nothing to get excited about.

    What are your expectations for Southend?

    Not getting at anyone, and not bored.
    Just disappointed.
    I’d really have expected more anger.
    But no, Swanny has won.
    We now expect so little that even s total disaster passes by with hardly a raised eyebrow.
    The Cods gave Fenty a much harder time.
    But on here we have windy moderators who prefer to post anti-tory drivel in non-football, then delete a post calling him out.🙄🙄🙄

    After a while it doesn’t matter as much.

    In a normally run club the youth team coach who has barely brought a single decent player through in the entire decade or so he has been here wouldn’t be put in the first team management role, he would have been binned a long time go. As soon as the new owners come in they need to get rid of every single person involved in the football aspect of the club.

    As soon as the new owners come in….
    Muahahahahahahahahahahaha.
    WHAT new owners????

    The second goal conceded was the one which troubled me regarding Dewhurst.

    I’ve looked at both second and third of their goals.
    Turned the screen for a better look, rubbed my eyes and looked again.
    Nope.
    Still looks remarkably like a keeper pretending to try and save.

    Where are all the interested parties you promised would be there once he officially put the club up for sale Alcy? That was always my concern that they’d be no one else to come in. Better hope that Swanny sticks around.

    First off, that was way back when we were a viable proposition, before Swann’s business acumen put us firmly in the brown and smelly place we now inhabit.
    Secondly, before prospective buyers appear, the club needs to be PROPERLY PUT UP FOR SALE.

    Which is, if you look back, what I’ve always said.
    I’d be more than shocked if someone knocked on my door asking to buy my house, but if I put estate agents boards up offering it for sale, I’ll be surprised if no-one comes.

    The whole sale thing has been a debacle, handled about as well as we should expect from Swann.

    Alcy can’t help it, he’s in the old bitter man phase of his life, unfortunately he’s in it till he carks.

    Which, given how rotten my life currently is, hopefully won’t be long.

    Still on course for another relegation, though.

    Not if you base our future performance on the form of the last 5 games we’re not.

    We can all make statistics say what we want.

    If we do perform well and survive will it make you happy?

    Yes it will… but I’ll be MUCH happier when the odious Swanns move on.

    I agree with your take on statistics.
    There’s lies, damned lies and then there’s statistics.

    Not sure who said it, but he was spot on.

    I take no pleasure in seeing misguided optimism.
    Nor do I take pleasure in others misfortunes.
    I do call out silliness.
    And I dont think our present unbeaten run is owt special.
    Perhaps when we’re no longer in the relegation places?

    That assumes the manager knows what he’s doing.
    History says our last five or six didn’t/don’t.

    I reckon it was a deflection like the times we were told about new stands etc under Steve Wharton.
    Back of a fag packet design that most knew would never be built, but it stopped us talking about directors who contributed nothing but took plenty, or the latest player sold quickly and far too cheap.

    As for Swann, if he told me today was Wednesday, I’d have to check.

    Alcazar, didn’t you stop going to games ages ago?
    Am only asking as your comment seems a bit ironic that you want a club that brings lots of fans, yet you don’t even go yourself!

    Yes, I won’t go again until the odious Swann family have PROPERLY severed all ties.

    But why would it stop me wanting the club to make money🙄?

    Nothing to do with crap humour or being ‘snowflakes’ (just a poor excuse to mock people who call you out). As for England players:

    During the summer, England’s Beth Mead said the issue had been raised as soon as the new Lionesses kit was unveiled for the European Championship.

    “It’s something we’ve fed back to Nike,” said Mead. “Hopefully they’re going to change that [the colour]. It’s very nice to have an all-white kit but sometimes it’s not practical when it’s the time of the month.”

    Hang on…I thought those things with wings guaranteed no leaks?
    Red Bull?

    Won’t matter.
    We are “first round out” specialists.

    So we might as well get someone who’ll bring fans for the income.
