poorly

  1. Barnard In Richards Off

    More importantly though, these continual bland comments and excuses from Tilson have to stop. "We defended poorly" "We gave away silly goals" ! Either get your finger out or make way for someone who can instill some discipline and professionalism in this team. Mediocrity rules OK!

    Keegan Factor

    I’m writing this match preview moments after watching Kevin Keegan’s first press conference as Newcastle United manager since 1997. When he walked into the room, I’ll be honest with you, I felt a little bit tired and maybe a bit stressed about the deadline that was closing in on me. But after...

    Landing Clarke

    if Clarke carrys on like he did saturday what are the chances of us signing him? surely Sheffield Wednesday will be watching with great interest especially if they themselves are doing poorly.?

    Sorry Steve / Maher - I love you but time to go....

    too a club where your going to be appreciated. What a ****ing joke saturday was. Started out well with a good laugh down at Prince Albert near the station, making noise in the pub, train, walk to the ground etc . The game was a disapointment - Mainly due to the fact I feel that we just didnt...
  5. Tonights Ratings

    Flavs - 7, some good blocks and dealt with a lot of set pieces fairly well Hunt - 7, unspectacular but solid. linked up well in the 2nd half and was good as the last man Richards - 6.5, nervy start but got into it as the game progressed. passing isn't great Barrett - 7, started poorly but an...
  6. Wayne Gray interview

    Gray puts his money on O’s front runners By Peter King Comment WHILE the bookies and experts may have written-off Orient this season striker Wayne Gray believes the club have the fire power to mount a play-off push. The former MK Dons front man (pictured), who is in his second spell at...

  8. The (Very Long) Diary of a Happy Fan

    Tuesday 3rd - Just come back from the pub, nice chat with Ron Mack, told him that I couldn't afford any more trips to watch the Blues this season, especially as out of 5 trips I had managed 2 draws and 3 defeats. Friday 6th - Incredible, just told my son that I hoped we wouldn't give away an...
  9. Are you fit to wear the scarf?

    Predictably, after yesterday's debacle, there are a lot of very ****ed-off Shrimpers on the board. But I really can't believe some of the comments on here. Comments like: "useless fat lump", "you're not fit to wear the shirt", "Tilson, however much I love you being our manager, I hope one...

    Sheffield Wednesday 3 Southend 2

    Another game, another defeat. But this was a completely different game to the defeats at Sunderland, when we were simply outclassed by a quality team, and the home game against Palace, where both teams played poorly but Palace snatched victory. We started brightly with Maher releasing Foran...

    Is anyone actually looking forward to.....

    If I am perfectly honest I have accepted relelgation and if I am even more honest I am looking forword to L1. I know it isnt over yet but if the team have performed this poorly so far then I dont see much chance of us suddenly picking up an amazing run of wins. So I have now resigned myself to...

    Clarke, midfiled?

    i think he's a pretty decent centre back but tilly shouldnt put him out of position, even if gutters is playing poorly at the moment. he surely won't start against col u, hopefully mccormick will start. don't get me wrong its through no fault of his own he did his best but just...

    Reasons to be positive

    1. We're about to get lots of money for a game we normally wouldn't give two tosses about. And it might just kick start our season 2. Sodje is back, and starting to find his feet 3. There are plenty of other bad teams lurking around us, doing just as poorly. We're bottom - true -...

    Is Tilly still our manager?

    The last I heard Steve Tilson was still Southend's manager and we are in the CHAMPIONSHIP!!! The fact that people are even thinking about who are new manager is, is crazy! Tilly loves this club people and all he has said is that it is nice to be linked to big clubs and he...
  15. Bring back loaned players now

    With the woefull performance we witnessed on Sunday I think Lawson and Cole should be recalled now. Harrold is injured, Ricketts well take your pick, team playing poorly, tiny squad, we need all options available to shake things up. Sodje needs to play at Derby. If we were in league one ,I fear...
  16. South Bank Hank

    Drop Prior, Hammell, Francis AND Guttridge!

    ...and other overly-simplistic comments. If only football were a simple game? There's still much to take heart from! Having seen a lot of debate already following two defeats about which player is letting the team down (Hammell, Francis, Guttridge, JCR) I firmly believe that selecting...

    The morning after QPR

    Now having slept on yesterday's performance and read through various threads i think its time to bring a little bit of level headed thinking to it all. We did play really poorly yesterday - mainly the first half - and nearly all the players have been tugged for their below par performances...
  18. We're going up!

    ... fuss about?. We started our last two seasons poorly and once we found our feet gained successive promotions. Things come in threes, so heres to another successful season!!!

    views from afar

    As I have just made my return to these shores, I thought I would make a few comments on how I have seen the season going from Canada. With my staunch refusal to subscribe to a service that is constantly criticised, I've had to rely on Canadian coverage of League one football. In short...

    League Games - Day 5

    Im never gunna win this sodding league!! Top team, after 15 overs, are scoring at 10 an over against a fairly poor side, but still bloody impressive. Im playing the other un-beaten team in my league, and started poorly losing 2 wickets but am on road to recovery. Kev
