You must have been at Southend High School sametime as my brother Paul if you was there early 60sI am sure I was at Southend High School at the same time as someone with the same name as this person in the Echo back in the early sixties so I doubt either of us will be around in 25 years time!
Why even give yourself any hope. We are down. I'll stop being negative when this season is over.
We all know it’s impossible, but wow what a story it would be if we did pull it off. We would be talking about “the great escape” and that huge winning run for years and how we all knew they weren’t really a bad team ?
Oh to dream
If you read it, it is worse than that. He is talking about a FURTHER 40 points from 19 games. Admittedly we wouldn't need that many to stay up (probably 35 more points would do), but I am struggling to see where our next win is coming from.We’ve managed a whopping 10 points from a possible 75 so far this season. And this bloke thinks we’re somehow going to get 30 from a possible 57? In absolute dreamland if he thinks that’s possible.
Thanks for stating the obvious- we all knew what I meant.Except actually the point is it’s not “impossible”- literally- the best (or worst) you can say factually is is that it’s somewhere between very unlikely and a vanishingly small possibility..
Well below the Bar humbug..

Fan for 5 years? Lets see how glass half full he is after another 25....
I find that level of blind optimism quite annoying tbh.
Its not negativity its reality, moods swing with the fortunes of the club on and off the pitch.
We all still turn up, tune in and log on no matter what because we will never stop supporting our team. The least that team can do is entertain us and look like they give a toss . They are getting paid to do so. You cant look at our season and see it as anything other then a total disaster. Being chripy and positive about it is slightly insane.
A few years ago there was a Southend Tory councillor called Grant Littler. He was full of hot air I remember. Could this be one and the same.
The players, past and present, are aware of the feelings of hostility and negativity towards them. Does that make them better players? Does it make them play better while in a Southend shirt? Does that make them want to like and appreciate the supporters? Does that make them play better when they return and play for the opposition (maybe that is why so many score against Southend)? What are the positives from a negative, toxic and abusive atmosphere on this site and in the ground?
