Good evening all.

Below is a list of clubs that I have either met with, zoom called, phone called or messaged.

As I mentioned, 80 of the 100 pro clubs in the country I have a professional relationship with so many informal communications are ongoing. But with my Southend United email I went one further and officially communicated with the same people to see that the club is open to two way relationships, that we do things formally as well as informally and that we do our business on the correct manner.

The list of clubs below fall into the following categories.

1. Premier League ( can only loan in windows)
2. EFL ( can loan all year round)
3. Confirmed players who are available for loan.
4. Confirmed players available for loan and maybe available permanent beyond a loan.
5. Invitations to BCD games to watch potential loanees.
6. Establishing good working relationships with clubs who can use Southend United regularly to loan their better players, even if they are ready to play higher.
7. A first communication to set out our club vision and ambition.

Every club below is somewhere on that scale and I'm afraid Bob from Rayleigh isn't getting which club and where they are on that list save to say these clubs now have an open door to us, in many cases we them, and our professionalism, conduct, long standing trust and relationships built over decades will bear fruit.

The feedback generally is that loans or potential permanent players put towards a club with 6000 plus loyal supporters with real points and pressure is a no brainer for them, likewise us.

I hope by showing you the list below ( do not read into any individual player, that is not what this exercise is for. I repeat, this is not "who's coming to us" bingo) you finally and without ambiguity see the level I operate at, how quickly and how extensively, with a range of working agreements that Southend United may forge, with opportunities that may we come as a consequence.

This is not for publication in the Echo or any other news outlet, should it turn up on any Southend fans forum as a screenshot this will be the first and last "here's an indicator of the work we are doing ". It is an indication of what work is going on along with recruitment, scouting and more pieces of the jigsaw to come.

In every qualification game prior to the 2018 World Cup, the Icelandic manager ( I was invited in said supporters meeting before the game where they qualified) would give the team sheet to supporters before local or national media.

At any point during the qualifying process, those teams could have been leaked by one of the 200 fans in the official supporters pub.

He delivered that team himself as proof of everyone being in it together. A test of trust

Not one Iceland team leaked, all supporters had their phones, social media and opportunity to break that trust.

So I'm doing the same with this. Should the Trust be broken that's fine, you'll get nothing of any note from me informally again, everything will be via official club communication.

Stan, so many of us do not doubt the hours you are putting in. This list does not include no doubt the mileage you have also put in behind it ... we are very lucky to have you. Thanks for all you're doing.... it takes time but things will change for the best!!

Much obliged, Mr C.
Three or four of the better players from those 80 would also be very much appreciated.
 
Great to share, but worth noting that there are all manner of lurkers on here from other clubs who could share stuff..
That's fine. There's no privileged information other than who I'm communicating with, something normal in football.

I want our support to see it and be safe in the knowledge ( along with future appointments) that the club is in good hands.

One thing for you to take back to TL, why don't the club do a kid for a quid and a fiver for adults on a few games. I can remember we done that against Morecambe and we had nearly 10k in the ground. They're the sort of things the club needs to be doing right now to keep the supporters on side because they will fade away if they think they're being taken for granted.

I understand season ticket holder will have a say about this, why not compensate them with free FA trophy tickets............ If you want to keep the fans on side, you do need to do more.

Well done Stan, good luck with the appointments. Should find someone from that little lot

I for one Stan have complete faith in the way the club is going and now being run. I can wait for the developments to happen as this season is written off and safety is my only hope. Next season expectations will be high. Please ignore the idiots on here. Do not rise to their bait. Thank you and hope one day to shake your hand on behalf of 4 generations of blues diehards

First and foremost this statement brought a tear to my eye as I’ve not seen this structure, communication or dedication ever since supporting SUFC.

I want to repeat that I have never seen this structure, communication or dedication ever since supporting SUFC.

So that’s since 1976! Perhaps it was different before but we have more now than we have ever had before regardless of current position!

How long until we as a fanbase jump on board?? Many of us have but this is Stan showing that there is a team already in place doing all that they can to succeed!!

Fans need to get onside, all of us!

if like me you love your club this is in the whole time I have supported them the most exciting time that we have had the privilege to be part of!!

Stan if there is anything that the majority can do to help move this forward then please just ask as you have 95% of us!

I am happy to help in any way I can with the skills that I have!

Who else will offer their skills to help?

Our support is awesome

We have the best team in place ever

We will start to move in the right direction again

Respect, honesty and believe in who we collectively are is key.

See you on Tuesday ?

Stan. No reason to question anything you said. And I will not screen shot anything and pass it on to any media. I can’t say but I hope no one else will. But our commitment and respect won’t stop anything you say leaking. The Ecko and other media are very well aware of your engagement with fans on this forum and are hanging and eager to quote - even misquote - your every word.
