Lets look to the future

ok so kevin maher looks like he's gone this has been on and off for months he hasn't played for months. other than daryll he has been our longest serving player, great and i thank him for what he has done, but lets be sensible here, i think we have had a pretty average season and with twelve games to go we are 1 point off the play-offs with a game in hand, pretty good position in my book and we have done all this without kevin maher. whatever anyone says about macca and bailey and there bookings they also bring goals which are very important from midfield if you want to get promoted something kev never really brought us. we are looking towards a new dawn at southend if the new stadium is granted and i think this is the perfect time to cut ties with the old southend that we had to endure pre-tilson which maher was a part of. He obviousley isnt wanted at southend anymore lets thank him for what he has done for us by showing up for his testimonial in the summer en mass and move on into a new stadium and era hopefully in the championship and spend some of that lovely lolly that our chairmen has raised off the loyal fans that we are through the share issue on new and younger players.

*Smacks head in disbelief*

Kev is our longest serving player fullstop, not our longest serving player "other than Darryl".

......spend some of that lovely lolly that our chairmen has raised off the loyal fans that we are, through the share issue, on new and younger players.

hmmm I'm not convinced.
I think its more likely that he'll use it to reduce our overdraft, in order to persuade lenders to lend him a larger pot of money for the new stadium.

oh dear my little gremlin it appears you have got yourself a little confused

1) Alan Moody 506 Appearances
2) Sandy Anderson 483 Appearances
3) Kevin Maher 454 Appearances

So in my book that makes him our THIRD longest serving player FULLSTOP.

Maher may have been 3rd for appearances but Ron Pountney served SUFC from Jan 1975 till July 1985, a period of 10 years 6 months which makes him a longer-serving player than Maher. I think your book is wrong.

I agree, we are looking to the future, hopefully next season a new young Southend side go to Cuckoo Farm Stadium, Colchester and win 4-0!

 

[Gremlin]

Of course I did. Time served and appearances are completely different measurements. Moody and Anderson are hardly "serving" are they?

Always amusing to be patronised by someone your junior though.
