All quiet on the Southend front?

[The Eternal Optimist]

Every Window we are kept on tenterhooks awaiting the marquee signing that never comes :sad:

I am rather hoping Ray Parlour’s love child rocks up but I do fear he’ll laugh and taunt us.



I guess we will be teased up until the closing bell tolls.

It seems that only when every other club has failed to make an offer to them that a player or his agent turns to Southend United.

Agent: What about Southend United then? They are the only ones left......
Player: Southend? You're having a laugh Ambrose.
Agent: Look, son, maybe it won't be that bad.......... it's got a pier after all.....
Player: Really? Lord Who?
Agent: Lord Christopher of Powell
Player: Why didn't you say? What's his number?

I think we have enough to stay up with maybee a loanee two.

I would rather wait until the summer rather than panic buy and be lumbered with a couple of donkeys.

Totally agree. We need a couple of bodies having lost Leonard, and Ranger, but any major spending should be saved until the summer.

This squad is good enough to push back up the table and to be honest the best we can hope for now this season is to avoid relegation. Its just lacking numbers and with the injury records this year of Worsdworth, Kiernan, Kightly etc we need a couple of loanee players to plug the gaps when they appear.
