[Zeuss]

Michael Knighton

I thought Knighton tried to buy Manure. NOT us !

Aussie guy was with Tom Lawrence in the VIP area today.Appears the deal is very close to be signed off.

Anyone dealing with Ron Martin has a bridge to cross he extending the bridge so it never ends lol

 

[Smiffy]

So Rees, Lawrence, Firth and Duddridge were all at the game today

As I said earlier, it might be very far off, but it really doesn’t send the right message to fans turning up in an official capacity with the CEO if it’s not close, which sort of confuses me considering a few days ago he was still looking for investment which suggested it was far away. We’ve also got people saying it’s nowhere near close.

Turning up like today really does give fans a lot of reason to infer that this is getting closer to going ahead, I hope that is the case or the disappointment will be ten-fold!

Privilege, as ever, watching Southend United Football Club play bromley football club this afternoon. Very disappointing result as there is no doubt #southendunited were the stronger team & played better, although I think playing on astro turf did not suit the players that well.

Nice to see and meet Justin Rees, the potential new owner, at the game along with #SirJamesDuddridge. Justin is clearly a very nice guy with a passion for the game who is very serious about buying the Club (with a consortium of others) all of whom have a passion for Southend. Onwards to beating Kidderminster at home next Saturday!

Apparently high level talks were taking place between Ron and A “Aussie” today in Pret a mange Brentwood according to Twitter @fan_southend1 today .

 

[JAL]

Calm yourself. Nothing is close until Ron hands over the keys sadly

Who said I am getting excited? It is purely an observation.

 

[Leeboy]

if Ron has to stay, but it’s way way way at the back, in the shadows, and my club survives then at this point i’ll take it

Wolfy has a new home…

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

I'm still in Bromley at mo but will be on when I get home

Thanks mate - stand down everyone, we won’t be in the presence till later

 

[Yer Blues]

Correct me if I'm wrong, it's not often someone witll *officially* sit and watch the game without it being somewhat close, right?

Absolutely impossible to answer.

 

[leeblue]

That is one hell of an orgy.

Or would that be an orgy in hell

 

[Blues4LifeDan]

Thanks mate - stand down everyone, we won’t be in the presence till later

I was messaging my mate while on here and it was typing on the wrong platform All the excitement of a takeover

 

[dusterman]

Yeah I hate Australians.

If I were to give the orgy a title it would ‘Firthy and Girthy’

 

[Morty01]

That is one hell of an orgy.

Don't make me imagine things like that!

 

[damien]

Remember Larsson at MK away. Doesn't mean anything for now but promising that all 4 were present in the same place.
