John White apologies to Southend United fans after heavy defeat at Rotherham

I don't think it's because he played for Colchester. Coker played for Colchester and on the odd occasion he's not at the races he never takes the stick White does on here. Equally Will Atkinson never played for Colchester - he's another who, whatever his failings, could never be accused of not turning up. And there are people ready to lay into him just like there are people ready to lay into John White. In my time watching Blues I've had to watch umpteen players who quite frankly couldn't care less - and it's those for whom I reserve criticism.

Younger fans need to remember that since 2011 we've actually had it quite good in the great scheme of things. We've either been challenging at the upper end of the league or holding our own against allegedly bigger clubs. There's been no real threat of relegation and no prolonged period of poor performance. Whilst we've just had a crap day at Rotherham these are the good days - enjoy them.
