Now that the season has finished, is it possible to claim that we (Southend United & the long suffering fans) have gone past rock bottom?
Are we past our nadir and on the way up? Can we rationally & unemotionally say that?
Will the historians amongst us say that "on this day" during the 2023/2024, this was the lowest point in our 100+ years of history?
The omens are good for 2024/25 season aren't they?
But then again, haven't there been a number of other seasons where we have thought that things "can only get better" only to find this was not the case?
Or perhaps with the sale of the club yet to be concluded, we are yet to find out if we have truly hit the depths of depair & found our way through?
[Please don't see this an opportunity for a rant & to be abusive towards the current owner - I know it is tempting but surely that has been done to death elsewhere.]
