Latest Rumours Last chance saloon for Sturrock?

[shrimpereeee]

Any legs in this?

Paul Sturrock is a dead man limping at Southend United. Defeat at home to Leyton Orient in the JPT Semi-Final on Wednesday will see him lose his job. It is already planned that Stutrrock will be replaced at the end of the season by Kevin Keen but this will be hastily brought forward if the defeat, which at the present time seems inevitable, occurs. It may not be possible to release Keen from his assistant coach deal at WBA until season's end, in which case a temporary manager will be put in charge at Roots Hall with the most likely scenario being a short-term (until the end of the season) contact for either Lee Bradbury, or more likely Kevin Watson.

100% true.:stupid you:

 

[OldBlueLady]

One of the anti Sturrock brigade has probably planted that rumour, I'm only surprised it doesn't suggest Tilly or Brush coming back!

 

[Jam_Man]

Yeah football rumours is very reliable.

:facepalm:

 

[Angell Delight]

Hahahaha brilliant stuff as always..... :smile::hilarious:

 

[Neil 24]

Love it:smile:

I have just put my mortgage on it!! ... :omg2: what Bull Sh!T

 

[LennySUFC]

100% Lies.

I'm the next man in charge; armed with my CV (Past Football Manager Games)!

Is it really that implausible though? With the current financial woes, Ron wants promotion ASAP. If Sturrock doesn't deliver it, It wouldn't surprise me if he wielded the axe. Think about our beloved chairman for one minute, would it really surprise you if he sacked Sturrock?

 

[jackj13]

Yes it would it surprise me very much! I would love to see how the likes of Gillingham and Port Vale would get on with at least 6 players or more out for many matches in quick succession. Sturrock is doing a great job and I think anyone else in his position would struggle.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Ron's not stupid enough to appoint another ex-Wet Sham or Col Ewe player as manager. We've been down that path with Alvin Martin and Steve Wignall and NEVER AGAIN.

He's probably not rich enough to sack Sturrock either. Had that rumour said Neil Harris or Graham Coughlan and a non-hamster or sheep botherer I'd have maybe given it some consideration before dismissing it as rubbish.

Absolute crap! Injuries have crippled us for the last 2 seasons. Dare I say it, without all the injuries we may well be currently sitting in League 1. Unless Sturrock makes them do an 8 hour Iron Man Challenge type training session every day, he can't really be blamed can he?!

Then you clearly don't know/understand Ron Martin. He won't give a **** about Gills/Vale's injuries, he'll care about the fact we're losing money, but have one of the biggest wage allowance in this league.

Dont get me wrong, I think Sturrock has done exceptionally well (boring football aside), but Ron doesn't want to hear about injuries and bad luck, all he wants is a pocket full of pretty green

This is Ron Martin we're talking about, if you don't/won't believe it, then you're being slightly naive!! :thumbsup:

 

[eastling]

Clearly a Borient wind-up!

So you're saying that if I don't believe something off what is probably the most unreliable football site on the internet, then I'm being naïve? Please tell me you're just trying to be a wind up!

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Its rubbish. Sturrock WILL get the sack but it will be Mohsni as player-manager to replace him.

 

[Blues 'n twos]

Its rubbish. Sturrock WILL get the sack but it will be Mohsni as player-manager to replace him.

With Gilbert as his assistant!! :smile::smile:

No, you're missing my point completely, forget the rumour off that website, what I'm saying is, if Sturrock doesn't deliver promotion this season, I'd be very worried for his position at the club. I'm saying if you don't believe Martin would sack him, then you're being naive :thumbsup:
