Breaking News Kevin Maher Testimonial

[Holy Joe]

Just a thought, wouldn’t it be great to see the North Bank full of Southend fans once again on a Friday night under lights, would be a good tribute to a legend.

Was North Bank being home stand before Kev's time though?

Does that matter?
He knows the club and the history.

The brand? They are certainly going to town on this.

For those on the committee. Is it possible to create a "ticket" for people that can't make it? That way we get to buy a ticket without taking a seat away from someone else. Maybe for a 5th stand that doesn't actually exist.

Great idea, we are also unable to go but would love to show our support for Kev.

 

[chelmo]

Only a few years on from when it should have been well done to all getting this over the line it’s well deserved for Kev

Ron this is how you treat a loyal player
I hope you keep an eye on Southend and see how big this club can be if run right

 

[macima]

That's awesome, thanks.

It seems like years ago now, but when his testimonial was first mentioned , I am sure I remember Kevin was reported as saying that he was confident of getting Robbie Williams to attend? Anyone else remember that?

 

[Tommy2holes]

I hope Kev gets a good turnout but I fear it won't be so well attended.

Be good to get as many as possible

I'm loving Brett Angell instead...

Hopefully the club will open all sides of the stadium which should create a decent atmosphere. People can sit in and around the area where they were on the memorable games in Kevs career. Having just one or two stands open tends to devalue the game.

If tickets are cheap then I would not be shocked to see a sellout, 9k

 

[Shrimp and two veg]

Only booked up my holiday recently. Absolutely gutted to miss out.

 

[Up the Shrimpers]

Think it will just be the East Stand open, can't imagine there would be the demand for other stands to be open.

I would like to think that more than the East Stand would be needed.

 

[PIERS]

shame. be nice to have wander round each stand

 

[LCBB72]

To be honest I am a little disappointed as this game will not give Kevin the bumper crowd that he deserves .

 

[overseas shrimper]

I want to know the formations of the teams. If either are playing 3-5-2, I'm not interested.

Why wouldn't it? We all know what a job kev done as player/manager for Southend. Should get half decent crowd given his loyalty to the club.
