Spot on.
Football is meant to be enjoyable. A distraction from the pressures of day to day life in general.
But for quite a few now, it is just an extension of that. If you are not enjoying it anymore and find yourself angered by the way things are going, on or off the pitch. Then why would you continue to go?!
That does not mean you are any less of a "fan" than those that continue to attend. It means you have made a personal decision and no doubt a bloody tough one at that. Which means you can perhaps concentrate on other activities that give you that enjoyment and distraction from the norm, that everyone needs.

I put the politics of the current situation behind me when I walk in the stadium.
The football for me at the moment is completely separate and I enjoy it, even enjoyed the Barnet game despite the frustrations of the performance.
When it gets so team morale is destroyed by off field activities then its different but at the moment it actually doesnt cross my mind when Im there.

In his meeting with SZ and the trust the other day Ron said he had pumped £200 000 into the club to pay for vital expenses that had to be paid.
Thank you Ron. Unlike some of the brain dead Neanderthals and their 12 year old sycophants who inhabit the North bank I appreciate you are doing your very best for Southend United under extremley difficult trading conditions.
He didnt say Ron was doing a good job ,Southchurch said Ron was doing his best, thats all you can ask of any man, whether or not his best is good enough i dont know, if its not then Mr Martin should seek help to save the club he says he loves and i know all who write here love.

One thing they all had in common. Ron Martin was not in charge of any of them.
Running a football club and maintaining the hopes and aspirations of it's supporters while at the same time keeping a tight reign on the purse strings is a tuff job. Many more clubs will be added to this list over the coming years and yes we could be one of them. Ron some times is unable to pay wages and has to lay some staff off. Does he do it out of spite or does it break his heart to have to let his employees down. So while he struggles and robs Peter to pay Paul and some how keeps us going. Some Cretin turns up for one match and chants Martin out!! Well done that man, glad to have you as a loyal fan.
This is what gets me, in your high and mighty, egotistical, witty response, you've spoke about/to someone as if they're a piece of ****, simply because they don't share your opinion. Out of curiosity would you do the same if you came face to face with the man you're referring to?
There are plenty on here that do that GBJ!
