Pascal Chimbonda/Clohessy

[Napster]

A twitter rumour

Pascal Chimbonda could be on his way to #Southend United to replace Sean Clohessy who's agreed to join #Gillingham. #Gills #Sufc #Gfc

 

[chapperzUK]

How many players have Gillingham been rumoured to sign!!

I thought Brown said that Leonard was a ready made replacement for Clohessy .....

To quote Chief Sitting Bull if I may for one moment , but "Brown seems to speak with fork tongue quite a lot"

Earlier tweets:

"Trust me, I have no reason to make stuff up, I was an agent for ages, have so many contacts and friends wanting to feud bidding wars."

and

"#Bristol #Rovers and #Southend are going head to head to sign free agent Matthew Laird. #Brfc #Sufc #shrimpers"

:smile:

I doubt the player who wears gloves all-year round would fancy it on a cold Tuesday night in Accrington.

Yeah I saw that, it has now been changed to Lund. Not really that big a rumour, an out of contract player being linked with the 2 clubs he was on loan with that season - just an educated guess.

I hate twitter accounts like that with people who pretend to be ITK. All you have to do is take a bit of a guess at something and if it doesn't come true just come out with some stupid excuse to cover it up.

Chimbonda, do me a favour, the bloke couldn't be bothered to pull his finger out in the Prem on the way to trousering millions, so he's hardly going to put in a shift at the Hall. Nothing but a cheat!

As for Mr Clohessy, one of the most over-rated footballers I have ever seen play, still scratching my head at how he got Player of the Season. Gets up and down, but was such a poor crosser of the ball I'm sure I spotted people in the South Upper wearing hard hats

Bit harsh comments there. I thought Chimbonda was a good player and he was as Doncaster recently. He has also moved to Asia after being offered a trial at a club there but is also doing football work off the pitch too.

As for Clohessy, he is a very consistent player who rarely has a bad game and is very good physically too. With the amount of games he has played for us in 3 seasons, it is quite remarkable. No he isn't a world beater and won't win us games single-handedly but what do you expect from a lower league player?

He could play in League 1 next season, but not higher IMO, and although I would be disappointed to see him go he isn't irreplaceable.

I can't work Bernie Friend out. Is he actually a Southend fan? His posts are nearly always negative & quite often just a bit wierd..

 

[Pubey]

Chimbonda has stolen a living as a pro player

 

[LennySUFC]

I <3 Chimbonda

That is all

Well seeing as we voted him player of the season and he got voted in the team of the year he is obviously overrated by a lot of people.

If Clohessey isnt all that I wonder what people expect of a fullback at this level...

There is nothing wrong with wearing gloves whistle playing football!

I actually think that he is a good crosser of the ball. Not the best but not the worst either. His reliability though is excellent, and he is a player who gets on with his job quietly and does not look for hero worship like some players that I could mention.
Well deserved POS.

 

[OldBlueLady]

Very surprised about Bernie Friend's comments, I, too think Clohessy is a decent enough crosser of the ball for our level.

Winding people up relieves the monotony of life, does it?
