They don't care

[Slim Man]

Willing to pop my head on the chopping block and say it. I've seen more passion and effort from the staff at Primark on a Sunday evening when I'm doing some last minute Christmas shopping. If this squad are capable of playing the high pressing aggressive attacking game I'm capable of shagging the playboy bunnies.

Yet again kudos to Clarke for being the ONLY player to look bothered. The defence has been awful, the midfield doesn't support the defence and they leave the attack isolated.

And the less said about George the better.

Thanks for this Kev, it means a lot. How's about we stop trying to do things on the cheap for a change? Always one or two players short. We've never got a full squad capable of promotion and there's always an excuse for it.

 

[Booker4]

Its just a lack of quality and more importantly a lack of confidence. The one thing we couldn't afford was to go one down today against a team that itself is lacking on confidence and by giving a truly awful goal away we've then collapsed. Done shouldn't have started so is rightly substituted. That's probably Wilders one error the rest I think we can all agree that the team would have been the same as we haven't got bodies in as Wilder expected to.

What is really worrying is that Southend are in truly dreadful form going back many matches

8 on the bounce they had lost

Match thread at top now mate.

They do care. Unfortunately their ability isn't good enough.

It's what you get when you sell your players who are capable of higher division football and buy lower league players.

Also, it helps if fans buy this sophistry and bullshit. Especially the poor fuckers hitting the buzzer bar for a season ticket at a 10% discount.

Shambolic first half, like a bunch of shivering bunnies caught in headlights.

Second half is a bit more like it so far but we won't pull 3 back,.not a chance.

Lots of work to do.

A second half of zero, yes zero shots on target when we've absolutely nothing to lose....sums how bad we really are

It's not about Mcabe at all - he has fully supported the clear out at massive cost and brought in the majority of Wilders targets - loads of other clubs do so much better on far less! Fact

Nothing to do with McCabe? You're blinded. We still need another 4 players. At least.

Far from blinded - can see how poor and tactically inept we currently are with our new system and players

System HAS to change, the worst style of football I've ever seen played at the lane.

We are a million miles from the team that Clough put together. What a shambles.

Also subbing Duffy for Scougall?!

I know, we're getting bullied all over the pitch let's put a midget on

Scougall has as much impact as my little sister would

Probably a similar body type too.

Don't get what your hard on is for Leon Clarke. You were banging on about him on Saturday as well..........Is it you Leon?
He, like the others on that pitch, were wank tonight.

Coutts (who thought this day would ever arrive) was the only player that looked up for it when he came on and that says a hell of a lot about the others tonight.

Send us some photos and we'll be the judge of that.

I put this at half time and at that point he was the only one who looked interested. After half time a few picked up, but Coutts was definitely the only one who looked like a footballer in that game.

I think the telling point in Dannys post is the midfield. As he says they don't support the defence yet play so deep it's obvious they can't support the attack quickly enough. That's not to excuse the pathetic defending, particularly Hussey tonight nor the fact that for the third successive game I can hardly remember us winning the second ball. Many will just rant about McCabe but when you give succesive managers budgets, however much that is, you really don't expect them to sign a bunch of spineless twats such as we are stuck with.

we haven't won second balls for years. we don't attack space.. we can't even take corners and throw ins effectively.. don't even start me on free kicks

We aren't just not winning them, we're surrendering them

Who was it who said Hussey had a magic wand of a foot for dead ball situations?

don't look at me.. probably the club that was selling him. he's the new tony mcmahon by the sound of it

 

[Sean Thornton]

don't look at me

Don't know who it was but someone did.

I can see he has the capability to put in a decent cross or free kick but hardly a "wand" it's the rest of his game that concerns me

so you're blaming me. i'm going for a flounce then

Wilder

Well he wants to tell him to try tackling with it. If he ever gets near enough to his opponent that is.

The midfield is just pathetic. But what do you expect with Basham and Done in it? They've been wank for a year plus.
And it's not so much the budget McCabe gives its just how the club is run. It's amateurish from top to bottom in so many ways and we never learn.

3 nil down, chuck McNuts on and go for it with 3 forwards, when has Scougs ever turned a game ?
