A quick soundbite from JR in the Echo:

“We are very pleased to have reached an agreement to become the new custodians of Southend United FC.

“Whilst our advisors conduct DD, we will be working with Tom Lawrence, John Still and Kevin Maher to ensure we hit the ground running once the transition has formally completed.

“We would like to thank Ron Martin, Tom Lawrence, Southend's creditors and the Southend City Council for helping us reach an agreement in time to avoid administration.”

I'd be surprised if the debt is cleared before DD is complete but Ree's statement said that he's glad the deal was done in time to avoid administration, so we must be confident the judge will grant an extension.

Edit: Ignore me, it's all paid off!

It's Justin Rees this time!

Absolutely fantastic news, and something that has been worked on by so many people for so long.

Everyone, and I mean everyone, had played a part in this happening.

I’m gutted I’m working tonight, but I’ll be there for the Solihull Moors game without a shadow of doubt, and as soon as they advertise 3/4 or 1/2 season tickets I’m getting mine back.

Was hoping to leave early enough for work to stop at the Club Shop beforehand, but don’t think that’ll happen.

Watch this amazing Club soar.
