The (very small)Stevenage contingent seemed to fully appreciate Tims’s efforts.

An engraved box of luxury butterfly plasters.

What will you be presenting him with out of interest OBL?

I have to be honest, and say that I don't know. It will be something for him to keep with an inscribed plaque, which will hopefully go down well.

Do you have any information about the buffet?

I think you probably have a good idea!

If there is no crispy seaweed you can count me out.

'all you can eat' for £15... you'd better hope Steve Evans doesn't turn up!

 

[OldBlueLady]

Not long back, Michael was, as ever, a thorough gentleman, greeting many of us with handshakes or, where appropriate, hugs and kisses Chatted at length with several of us, he misses us, we're still one of the first results he looks for.

He spoke quite candidly about the situation at Southend, how he'd still been on good terms with Chris Powell, and how he helped with bringing Dru on last year by constantly coaching and encouraging him on the pitch.

There will be a full article on the Trust website, Michael was really touched with the presentation, the plaque on the picture presented to him reads: Michael Timlin 2010 - 2018 - Midfield General. A true legend literally spilt blood for the cause with thanks from the Shrimpers Trust on behalf of all Southend supporters.

I was really surprised at Timlins love for the club, he is almost desperate to come back and coach here as some point. He spoke highly of all the staff , Ron etc. He said that Ron is an attractive chairman to Managers looking for a job, as he lets them get on with things and give them time.

I did ask him how much difference a highly vocal animated manager makes during a game, he said its more down to having one or more players who take the instructions on board and then they communicate it to the players and keep that communication up. When someone said its really only Cox who seems to be doing much of that he seemed surprised and said that of about 5 or so players last year who had those onfield leadership qualities Cox was probably the quietest.
He also rates Keen as a brilliant coach, not the managerial type , but as a coach top drawer

Who were the 5 or so players other than himself: Coker, Kiernan, Demetriou, Ferdinand and Cox?

He didn't elaborate , I guess him , Keirnan came up in conversation too, but it was interesting that he felt that animated managers did not have that much effect on the pitch , it was about getting a message across to one or more players who can get that message spread.

These guys are professionals, why would someone shouting and screaming at them help them perform? Just imagine if your manager or management team did that to you while working telling you how to do your job, but we as fans described it as passion and desire?! I could see Timlin being a good coach as he seems the player to lead on the pitch and provide a lot of guidance to the younger players. Maybe as part of a new look team next season

Yet it was a criticism of CP , showed lack of passion apparently .....

 

[Justleavingwork]

Weird I know, passion and commitment Timlin show must games I saw him play, with none of the shouting though there might of been some hand waving

 

[AndyT]

It's not about screaming and passion, it's about going out with a positive mindset and asking players to be positive and proactive, rather than nervous and defensive.

My argument with CP was that he set up to not get beaten on too many occasions and as soon as we conceded he kind of slumped back into the dugout without a plan B in mind. This is where you need a manager to change things and get messages out on the pitch to change things about.

Players are responsible once the game starts, fair enough, but they still have to go on what the manager asks them to do.
