Does make you wonder just how much we owe as Umbonga still not been paid. If saving the club was top of the list by paying up and I knew I was guaranteed £250k like yesterday I would have found a way to pay it upfront and then transfer the money back into my account a few days later
 
So we have a player we signed at the beginning of the season we still can't play, another player recently signed but can't play, numerous trialists...all whom can't pay. A chairman who said months ago the embargo would be lifted once we paid HMRC... Still under embargo....oh it will just take a simple call....still under embargo...oh we will clear it this week...still under embargo....OK im hoping to clear it this week though....strung out and out for the real reason which is Ron wont bring us out until his golden egg has been agreed by Southend Council. Im sick of the lies, a bit of honesty is all we asked for and got nothing. If lies were a currency Ron would be the wealthiest man in the world. Get us out of this embargo you Rod Stewart wannabe

I'm not sure it's a case of won't more a case of can't, the bloke is flat broke and up to his eyeballs in debt. Well at least for 2 more days he is, he may well become very rich soon and that may benefit the club massively but until that happens we are potless.

Surely if he is broke and in his eyes with debt then the council would be mad to let him do it.

Well not if he can prove that he can get funding from elsewhere, which he has arranged. besides Ron is made to look like a competent manager in comparison to local politicians.
 
So, in relation to the OP and poll, those who voted 'No' have been proved right.

What a ****ing surprise
 
Is the state of play of the embargo that we wait till Thursday and re-evaluate then or is it not going to happen until Jan at earliest? I only ask as if it’s the latter I can put it to the back of my mind, like Ronald, and try and enjoy the festive season.
