Official Match Thread Southend United v Mansfield Town

[dusterman]

Been shocking today

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Off to the shed to consume vast quantities of beer (again).....it;s become a bit of a habit recently

 

[Rob1920]

I think losing Egbri and the Arsenal lad are a massive part of why we're awful again.

 

[gatecrasher]

Yes....Halford off for and even worse option ...says a lot when I'm praying for Richard Taylor to come on up front

 

[MisterStubbs]

Hate to say it but we’ve gone backwards in recent weeks.

 

[Jay_SUFC]

Why were people so excited by signing Halford; not sure what he brings

 

[lawrenceaustin]

God, its like beginning of season
Lazy
Lethargic
Second to every ball
Minimal attacking threat
0 points from a desperately needed 6
Bradford next, things need to change

 

[Chairman Trigg]

Can only hope Mansfield tire as their work rate has been impressive compared to ours.Was hoping they might sit back being in the lead!

 

[dusterman]

Need two to three signings to bolster this team

 

[dusterman]

Hart doing what Halford should have done for the goal

They look quite fresh, mind you they haven’t played for 10 games..

We do have to remember that we aren't very good, but neither are most teams in this league. Unfortunately Cambridge and Mansfield are two of the few better teams. We couldn't really expect to beat either of them, a draw would have been a bonus. But we should be able to win our next two games against Bradford and Port Vale who are both very poor teams.

 

[RHB]

What I'd give to have Demi out there now. No leadership at all at the moment.

Can’t really remember winning at vale park, even when we had a good side

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

It is all too confusing, players don't know their roles or where, what team mates will be doing.

 

[south247]

Clueless. Second best across the park. Excruciating to watch. Again. Squad is wafer thin. 80 minutes and can't remember a shot on target. Shocking.

Cambridge weren't that good; we let them off by not taking our chances in the first half

I think most called him out for what he is, a very slow has been, but cheap wages.

Yeah, anyone can beat anyone, so you don't want to play form teams regardless of their league position

 

[in the know]

White needs to get in the refs ear!! He stands off and accepts decisions too much .
