Criticism is fine and will always draw debate both in agreement and non agreement, but perceived criticism for criticism sake will result eventually in being ignored.
Sorry @Cricko John we'll have to agree to disagree there. There is a difference between having an opinion, expressing & discussing it as opposed to being a monotonous critic who will accept no debate.I actually think it's good that people have differing views on here. It creates debate which is why we have this forum. Just because Wiggys views differ from others he is still entitled to express them.
He makes some valid points IMO, which everybody on here can debate without bashing him for his own.
I don't disagree with much of what you say - we now have enough defenders, arguably prior to wind coming in we were 1 short. I'd also argue thats not all you're hearing about - we've also signed a centre forward and the transfer rumours is full of tashminga and pedder rumours, as well as other non defenders.That’s because I am extremely passionate and convinced that this is our best chance for years to get out of this insult of a League with teams such as Braintree in it.
All I keep hearing about is defenders, ain’t we got enough of them?
If we must play Jack Bridge then why get rid of the bloke that he played best with , Wez?
Should be on a massive high having got rid of the rat but as usual it is lack of goals that I’m worried about but the clique don’t mention that, just say I’m wrong for dare mentioning that!
the same Kev Maher that saved us from relegation, the same Kev that had us in the play offs last season (if not for the -10 points), the same Kev Maher that had to use a squad of 13 players for god knows how many games, the same Kev Maher who manged wins against Oldham 4-0, Solihull 5-0 and 3-0, Chesterfield at home 2-1, Aldershot 4-1 the list goes on. Any other manager would have walked away but Kev, Darren Currie, Mark Bentley stuck by the club, the fans and players through extreme circumstances. Ive agreed that we need to sign more players and most certainly in attacking arears. But to suggest Kev is negative and maybe should suggest he leaves is bonkers. The guy deserves a knighthood for what he has done for this club. This season will be a big one as there wont be any excuses this season and no off field distractions. But he absolutely deserves the chance to be the man to lead us hopefully to promotion surely you think thats fair?On a par with getting rid of Southgate style wise, yes

Strange forum this?
My opinion is that we are weak on a supply line and weak on strikers at the start of a season in a League that is very weak?
However the little club of Kev lovers don’t seem to have any opinion on this?
Clearly we are lacking but 99% are scared to admit it for fear of upsetting someone or the other….thought it was about opinions positive and negative, not this little gang!
There isn’t a little clique. There’s not some great Kev Maher conspiracy controlling the world that people can’t talk about. Jesus Christ, what a world we live inSo why are the little clique say I’m talking bollox if everyone knows it?
Same old little clique
Sorry mateUnbelievable.
Why on earth would you come on here and talk complete sense
Well.. how can I answer what you’ve just said. But, yes.
Tbf, we know bridge can’t defend.. let’s not pretend (almost a lyric there).. I love Kev as a gaffer.. as a tactical genius, I’m not so confident
Yes it’s very strange how they all wet themselves with any criticism of Maher….the coach who reprimanded us paying crowd for dare to shout shooot when in a good position 20 yards from goal?
I think we'd all like to see a Southend side which is swashbuckling and scores goals for fun, but also has a defence that never lets teams in and is super solid.I’m gonna try not stir the pot.. I love Kev and all the back room staff to the end of the pier and back but I would still like to see a more attacking ‘chances created’ style of football instead of protecting a lead or passing around the midfield personally..
He would disappear and come back when things aren’t going well again.The problem isn't your opinion. It's the way you deliver it on the forum. Saying people who disagree with your opinion as 'kevin lovers' is going to get a negative reaction for example.
It was only a friendly. Wait 5/6 games in if we still have no recruits and not scoring enough goals you'll have a good point.
But is the player in question actually injured or is the club unwilling to risk him in the last friendly before the beginning of the season?I think we have had more than our fair share of recruiting players who are prone to injuries.
Don't employ anyone who is injured before they sign.

He has a slight hamstring strain, I spoke to him Saturday and he was limping slightly but said it was t too badBut is the player in question actually injured or is the club unwilling to risk him in the last friendly before the beginning of the season?
