Sinking ship, thanks Ron....

It doesn't matter about the state of the club, that is for Ron and his team to worry about and resolve. Us all worrying isn't going to make things right. (I personally think all with come good in the end) Our job is to get behind the team, be it a bunch of new players we will sign that Sainsbury's pay for, or youth players who get their chance because we are skint.

Whoever pulls in the Blue shirt of Southend United, let's all get behind them and support them.

Wiggy is Wiggy, he /she/it just moans at whatever takes the latest fancy, be it Tilly, Mildy or Ron. That's what he/she/it does. No substance, no friends. To gain some notoriety, he/she/it posts on here to court as much controversy as possible. It bores me to death if I am honest.

Get behind The Blues, they are who we support.

Well put that man

Although we all moan and groan on here at times we cant do sod all but support the blue army!!
 
First brick was due to be laid this month, nothing as usual, how do you stay so calm in these ball **** sea's?

Wrong. Boardings are due to go up this month with building work starting in July. oh and in case you hadn't realised it's only the 9th today. Get your facts right before allowing the fingers to type.
 
My only comment on this thread is to remind anyone now saying what a jolly sound person old wiggy is, this is the same wiggy who for years has been heaping abuse on Steve Tilson. Most of the comments wiggy now makes about Ron Martin is very similar to what wiggy used to say about Steve Tilson.

When Steve Tilson had good players on his hands i.e Hooper never gave him a proper chance, played Sankofa over Francis yeah he got criticised. Ron not paying wages and running the playing side down to Conference standard and on top of that lying his way through all of it then yeah, he gets critised as well. Sorry that you want us all to make out nothing is ever wrong on the good ship SUFC!

I am well aware that SUFC is in a bad state but I don't get the point of new threads day after day reminding us of it especially those contributions that seem to come across as 'everything would be alright if I was running the show'.
I supported SUFC long before Ron Martin came on the scene and hope I will be around to support the club long after he is gone. My problem is I don't see anyone coming forward who is seriously interested in replacing him and I don't hear any other solution being proposed by all his numerous critics on here.
If I'm honest I have a particular problem with you as a poster as you rarely seem to post anything about any aspect of the club that is not viciously critical. It just so happens that at the moment Ron Martin is the target of your venom. In the past its been Steve Tilson and the players. When Ron Martin and Steve Tilson go I suspect you will simply move on to slating their replacements

Should we sit back and ignore the fact that the club is crumbling into the ground and not bother airing our views and opinions? Yes, the views may well be negative at the moment, but can you honestly see anything positive at the club at the moment? I can assure you that if things straighten up at the club, I will be delighted to join in the positivity.

I couldn't run a football club to save my life, but I would expect those occupying such positions would have some idea! Is it too much to ask not to have a mentalist chairman with a one track mind?

I'm fed up with the Rose Tinted Brigade and Ron Lovers coming on here and dismissing my opinions because they do not conform to what you think I should or should not be posting about the club.

As far as the team goes, I am Southend through and through...I will never stop going to support the blues.....It upsets me to see what is happening behind the scenes, and you should respect the very real concerns of many fans at the minute.

Even if I did have a solution for you, how do you go about removing a chairman who owns everything belonging to Southend United?

Very well said sir. I totally agree. Also i think instead of saying "he/she/it " The word "SHIM" could be used.

What I'm fed up of is everytime someone attempts to defend RM, like I've done before, they are instantly a member of the rose tinted brigade, or is a Ron lover.

superblue24 - It may surprise you but I agree with much of what you say though I stand by my view that we don't need a new thread every day re-iterating once again just how bad things are.
Where I strongly disagree with you is your comment about "Rose Tinted Brigade and Ron Lovers". I don't see why those of us who prefer not to join in some of the personal abuse aimed at Ron Martin and who choose to express their concerns about the state of our club in slightly different tones from others on here should have to get these silly labels put on us.

OK I retract the comments about the rose tinted brigade and ron lovers....I am still annoyed about the fact that people come on here trying to gag those who have an opinion and are genuinely concerned about the club.....The quantity and frequency of these kind of posts only signify how bad things really are....

There are no solutions within our hands, but airing our frustrations helps to get it off our chests....

You can rest easy knowing that every single one of us have one common interest.....SUFC
