Breaking News King returns to Swansea

[manor15]

Says Chris Phillips.

No great shock, may allow Jack Bridge some game time. Wonder if Brown is looking for another midfielder for cover on loan or not, if Coker is fit then we'll have Timlin as an option there as well as Atkinson being able to move central.

Didnt work out for him here, and hopefully free's up some wages for new players

 

[Harry Bullocks]

No great loss IMO

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Was only signed as cover when Tims and WW were both injured, now they're both back he's not getting a chance and did nowhere near enough to keep the shirt when he got it

Good luck in your future endeavours and all that but this is no loss at this moment in time

 

[Floval Flyer]

the King is dead...


bye bye and thanks for, well ? nowt !

 

[Chalky]

No loss. Hopefully Jack Bridge gets in the matchday squad now.

No loss. Hopefully Jack Bridge gets in the matchday squad now.

....and Master Bedford.

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Thank you for your efforts.

King needs time on the pitch to develop and King wasn't likely to get it here at Southend so I think it is a good move for both King and Southend United.

 

[Bearded Shrimper]

Good move, it didn't work out for whatever reason and that happens, in all walks of life. I hope he goes on and does well.
I also hope that him going means our youth players get more of a chance. If we need someone to step in, whether to the bench or the pitch or whatever, lets make it one of our own.

 

[SUFCStu]

Who?

Did nothing so no miss.

 

[OldBlueLady]

Ah, feel quite sorry for him, seemed like a good move when we had long term injuries but it's not how it worked out. In his best interests to go back to get game time. Thanks to him for his involvement at the Junior Blues Bowling Party - did so much more than a lot of our own players did.

 

[Ricey]

Hardly set the world alight here, probably best for both parties. Wish him the best for his career.

Sounds like it was Swansea's decision to take him back

Makes sense if he isn't getting game time, it's the whole reason clubs loan players out to get experience and game time elsewhere.

 

[Chairman Trigg]

It's unbelievable the mess we were in when he arrived.Unfortunately for him his game time came with an unsettled injury hit side with no proper style or formation.Shows how luck plays a part .If he came in now to a settled side it might have worked for him.
Wish him all the best

Good post Mr Chairman Trigg.

We all might like to think that individual footballing talent will shine through on a Saturday afternoon but it just goes to show what a team game it is.

Many a player has had to drop down the football league to gain experience and finally come good in a team where they can play their role properly and prosper. And I think the role of the manager is vital in this.

I think that needs to be remembered sometimes (including myself) when some transfer targets are being criticised as having "done nothing" in the last couple of seasons.

 

[MisterStubbs]

No great loss, offered very little when he did play.

 

[Shrimper]

So, he's guaranteed to score against us later in the season right?
