Official Match Thread Southend United v Bradford City

[Chairman Trigg]

There's always Louis Walsh to save our season.....if we can find him !

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Do they do ifollow in the National League?

 

[kentblues]

The only good thing here is any thoughts that we will be safe without some urgent signings is out the window.

Min 2 CFs and maybe attacking CM essential or we will not get the goals to be safe

 

[Jay_SUFC]

What do you want him to do?

Magic up a striker?

I want him to stop messing around with formations, sign a player in a position we need, not a CB; attack teams at home rather than playing a defensive side

 

[Tinks]

3 minutes - time added.
That’s 3 minutes too long

Play a system the team understand. Work hard on the final third and dead ball situations.

We are inept in every single department.

 

[Boreham Blue]

There is a chasm in class between us and Bradford

 

[Colchester John]

We aren't looking like a team being managed properly. We dont look like scoring and can't defend. We continually play a system that doesn't suit us and the team dont look comfortable with it.

We just continually knock it long and hit and hope.

We haven't got the best players but there are some good talented individuals who are being coached badly and their talent not being utilised.

No point in changing manager. Nobody would come here and we can't afford another change.

The club is a complete joke.

Maybe the time is to change Managers for a change of tactics. Am sure MnM thinks that Tactic are Scottish Mints Grrrrr

Was ending the game with Acquah & Taylor upfront a message to Ron?

It felt like one

It's almost like we have 10 players unavailable for tonight.

I'm sure he wants to sign a striker but unless Ron says yes, it won't happen.

 

[Jay_SUFC]

The formation didn’t make our players miss easy chances from 10 yards and not even get then on target.

But it has allowed the opposition to have more possession, create more chances and score more goals!!!

 

[tallboyblue]

I don’t think the players understand how they are supposed to play MM is making it too complicated for Division 2. Plus it’s still men against boys up front.

 

[Holy Joe]

Did their keeper not just catch it, drop the ball and then pick it up again?

 

[dusterman]

Look for a positive, most teams in National League Southern based, so we're save a load in travel costs?.

I hate the thought of going down but I’d be alright as long as we survive it as a club. That’s all I want tbh.

 

[WickfordShrimper]

FT lost 3.1

Getting worried again

You think we would have kept a clean sheet with a different formation? I very much doubt it. And our strikers still wouldn’t have been able to score. So the result remains the same.

Oh hang on, Ron said yes to a CB and no to a striker then?

 

[Bluegoose]

Another waste of 8 Euros.

Ive always been worried. 2 seasons of worry now.

Firstly he could stop signing donkeys.
