Well, once Fossetts has been built, we have moved in, getting some revenue and moved up a division or 2, I hope you and all the other anti-Ron supporters on here will:

A) Realize that this was Ron's plan all along and sometimes you need to take a gamble to win

and

B) Clear off and support another team, cos while Ron is here, you will never be happy.

LOL what revenue? SUFC are entitled to nothing!! It's Captain spunk face's money. He can and will do what he wants with it. You're dreaming if you think he'll give that to the club. Answer this, in all this time, while the mug has rambled on about new grounds and futures etc, why has he never given a straight answer as to where the extra revenue will come from?
 
as apposed to 'clear off and support another team' anyway im going bog snorkling now

ooh I like you anthoney grant signature, my dad has got posters of all his favourite footballers on his walls at home all his mates reckon hes a proper weirdo at his age!!!

anyway bye for now fraggle x
 
are you a football fan?

one win or a 100 wins, RM sould never ever be allowed to forget what he has done to this great club of ours, our as RON SAYS HIS CLUB fans like you are fare more damaging too the future of SUFC than the likes of badger 74 or I will ever be.....

But if you take a balanced view, where were we before Ron? Any better off than we are now? Probably not.

A lot of people want Ron out but as their is no obviously better alternative whats the point in continually slating the bloke?

I firmly believe we will see many more clubs in massive financial trouble in the next few years. When that happens Southend will hopefully be on a firm financial footing and well placed to go forward.

Bottom line is we need a good solid season and every point gained is crucial to that goal.

Which is why it was good to see Ryan Hall given the start last night....strange how without Soares and Zaaboub we suddenly get a result! ;)

Dont be negative!!!
I too agree without soares and Zaaboub we would have a much better side, I have said this from the beginning of the season.
Not bad its only 2 players that dont look like cutting it here with all the new players
 
How come Sturrock can put a team together in a few weeks, that can compete at a good level and Tilson had exhoribtant wage to pay merceneries that took us down. And as for Tilson being the best player and manager Southend have ever had - McCory, Barron, Garner and Peter Taylor - all internationals - how can Tilson then be compared to these, and let Kiehley Hooper go for no money...... and they never even got to play regular, but someone else could see their potential.

Simple, PS currently is still in his honeymoon period with Ronald and therefore 99% of his requests will be met.

Tilson on a snowballing scale has had to work with his hands tied firmly behind his back with players being forced upon him by the chairman and the likes of Jennings.

This is NOT a matter of opinion, it is unfortunately fact and another example of Captain Mega-lo-Maniac at work...
 
People, again I know emotions are running high but can we stop the petty name calling between Zoners please?

Thanks in advance.

Blimey! Wish you would have told PS of your master knowledge of all our new players - would have saved him a few weeks of tinkering eh?!

I have said the same about Zaaboub but i have bowed to pressure and reserved judgement till he is fully fit.

remains to be seen.............and my answer to you is .........tilson managed us during a transfer embargo with his hands tied behind his back,hardly fair to judge him on last season.

1 word i expect everyone on hear ron or anti ron is doing!.........remains to be seen i suppose?

I know you hate my crap posts Hindle, but maybe you would be able to let me know which transfer embargo Tilly was working under? The window closed in January, so he couldn't sign anyone after that, and the embargo started after January, so it made no difference, he still had to work with the players that mostly had been his signings.
Something doesnt add up here.
 
I blatantly refuse to get drawn on the "Ron vs Tilson" debate as its history and coming from a "Tilsonite" that is hard. Ron is the Chairman, owner, vice president, treasurer, fundraiser,etc and until someone takes pity on us with a large wedge in his pocket to squander at will as much as it causes a big lump in my throat and a pain in my B******s he is going no where. Paul sturrock is the Manager (like it or not) so lets not judge him just yet eh, give the poor bloke a few games before jumping on his back and yelling for him to be hung drawn and quartered.
