Careca9 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Southend in similar Termoil a year ago finished bottom half did they. Never even looked like playoffs, so as a guide it doesn’t bode well for us. We do however have a top man in charge as pointed out. He’s won this division and will know how to win games so will Have to see. Main thing though remains the owners selling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally think Porter will get injured very early on and keep the physio busy. Waste of a wage in my humble opinion - way, way too old now. Was like a carthorse last time I saw him play - Lord only knows how slow he is now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main thing though remains the owners selling Southend only stabilised once they had binned Brown and brought in someone who knew what he was doing. I think their squad was probably a good deal stronger than yours, to be honest. They certainly won quite a lot of games from December or so onwards. I'll be interested to see how Sheridan goes about it. I'm assuming that he doesn't have a lot of contacts in non-league and therefore you may be looking to pick up bargains from areas he is familiar with. It all feels a bit sticking plaster like, but he is experienced and may be able to bring in a stronger nucleus. But money and stability are against him, aren't they?

If he does sign, him and the Stockport lad could be a decent centre half pairing- with Sutton for cover. Just need to sort every other position now.

We are scraping the very bottom of the barrel - are you really getting excited about signing/possibly signing players from the likes of Stockport and Halifax? If so, just shows what a good "psychological" job this poisonous regime has done on people. Quite unbelievable some of what is put on here.

I'm 33 I don't get excited about signings but you won't get much better NL pedigree than the captain of the champions and the captain of a playoff side...

bigfatjoe1 Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Wouldn't be typical if we sign a load of non league players, Derby go bust and we get a reprieve. Yes, just typical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go on then excite us with your suggestions, then I'll wake you up the reality is we are a 5th tier football team and we need players capable of getting us out of this division, so far I think that's what Shez is aiming to do, it doesn't matter a jot where we've come from next season the mighty Latics are playing in non league.

Be that as it may, there is still , for some of us, an interest in whether the players we will have are capable of getting us up from this tier we are now in. I accept that they may not be the pedigree that EFL clubs are able to attract but I'm just being pragmatic.We are wear we are, I'd like us to be succesful on the pitch .
