Let us hope we see that scarf above his head on the pitch. Let's also hope that another Southend legend is his number 2.

We need something or someone to raise the players , fans and the club.

This would provide a much needed shot in the arm.

 

[wakes123]

This would give the whole place a lift, no doubt about it.

If we do appoint him, it has to be long term and if that means that he takes us down this season, so be it.

Agreed! The damage is already done this season. Need a miracle already

I did here AB and Tilly were in 2nd place before Rons Swedish soiree.....So you never know

Absolutely. Should the worst come to the worst and we drop to L2 I'd be far more confident that AB, more than anyone else touted, could get us back up quicky. More immediately he'll restore some (desperately needed) confidence and belief.

 

[Mad Cyril]

My guess is that Ron found out how much a pint costs in Stockholm and thought **** that.

And a bit of pride into the shirt and the club. There are clearly some bad apples on the playing staff and they need rooting out and showing the door in January.

Didn't Ron say the Echo doesn't pick the manager. I cant see Millwall releasing AB from his contract even if AB was interested I still think Larsson is in pole position to get the job.

 

[Willie Coulson's Red Cheeks]

AB yes, not so sure about Tilly. I know he oversaw a great era but I really feel his time has passed and I'm not sure what he could bring.

 

[Onion_Bag_Dave]

Whoever we appoint we have to be prepared to get relegated with them.
Can't keep chopping and changing.

AB YES YES YES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

Of course they would. You don't stand in the way of an assistant getting a number one job.

AB YES YES YES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!

This x 1000.

It was bad under Brown, it was bad under Powell, it was bad under Bond, it was bad under Waddock.

We stick by the manager even if we get relegated and we give them a chance to rebuild their own side in the fourth division.

 

[Rayleigh boy]

Waddock said “whoever picks the team on Saturday”

So I guess he’s out the race ..

I am still a Jose man - but ..... could be persuaded that a local boy would not tolerate half arsed effort and prima donnas -

Are the play offs a stastitical impossibility ??

 

[Callum]

I agree we need Barrett we need passion and pride

 

[SHRIMPERPETER]

Someone I know spoke to Tilly halftime last week about being manager and he said he would but only if Barrett was along side him?

Rumour has it AB has been seen in a suit in a well known area of Southend.......Which means Millwall must have given him permission to speak.

Bit of skill and footballing nous wouldn't hurt too.

 

[Jim Levenstein]

Not even an assistant - the first team coach!

I have been seen in a suit outside the magistrates Court before...
