Is it time for him to leave with whatever dignity he has left, or try and ride out the storm as was achieved after the Leicester fiasco?

Just as a point stand reminder of what he has done:

- Leicester Fiasco
- Man Utd Tickets
- Alex Revell Treatment
- Spencer Prior
- "There will be signings"
 
Dont know enough about what he does on the positive side?

Has he lent money to the club? Do his business contacts bring in much needed revenue?

How can anyone judge if we only know half the picture.

I have enough of a picture to make my decision, rather be skint without him than skint with him!

Blue riot. Stand down Geoffrey. I'm a child of the recession and I've got hate in my eyes. Ask for me today cos I'll be gone tomorrow. Because I'm on a one way ticket to oblivion and I'm gonna raise hell getting there.

He did write to me personally after I was refused entry to the Car Park (even though I had a Car Park season ticket), and promised it wouldn’t happen again. and it didn’t happen again until the next time we were on Telly.
He’s a PR man who does a terrible PR job. The Revell fiasco is the most recent evidence. Why not say “ he always worked hard for us but unfortunately he didn’t fit in, we wish him every success in the future”
 
I would imagine that GK is being set up as the 'patsy' here. If you really think he comes out with this crap without RM's knowledge/blessing then I think you're hideously naive. RM doesn't want to be out there lying his arse off about our obvious financial problems so he's sending out his talking monkey to do it for him. Judging by the anger directed at GK and the lack of questions being directed at RM, it seems to be working a treat.
 
I'd like him to, but as said above, what does he bring to the table except the PR skills of Saddam Hussein and Osama Bin Laden rolled into one?

For all we know he may be the one who keeps bailing us out when players are unpaid?

I say "no", but only based on the facts that I have no idea what he does to benefit the club, just see his woeful statements.

I'm now off to fight with other Southend fans who don't show enough commitment to the club.

Possibly all true, Rusty, but you should meet the man. I really struggle to see what he brings to the club, other than being RM's fall guy.

All more than likely true, Rusty... The club needs someone at this moment in time to take the flack for the problems instead of it all falling at the clubs door. Makes better press for one man to take the fall than for the entire club to suffer.
