Official Match Thread Southend United v Chertsey Town FA Cup (4th Qualifying Round)

[Mad Cyril]

I thought Stan could do no wrong in my eyes but today I think he undermined Demi by going down to the pitch side to talk to players, I wouldn’t be surprised if we get sanctions as I bet he isn’t listed on the bench and I think his heart ruled his head on this one.

Future question of sport moment.

 

[Boreham Blue]

I’d bring Davis on for Atkinson, go 442 and allow the wide men to just attack with Dennis or Walsh replacing Egbri with 30 mins left.

 

[Callum]

No.

That’s my Saturday joke done

 

[SeaSideDoughnut]

How are some of our younger Shrimpers playing? Seaden, Howard, Egbri, Phillips?

If Demi was in a long term position, I’d agree. But he isn’t. So it’s great that it’s all hands to the pump.

We’re also obviously not privy to the full set up and operations at the moment, albeit it’s pretty clear Stan is in a significant position of influence.

Demi has the FA coaching badges I do believe.

Not sure how that undermines a caretaker manager who's in charge of one game at a time. I bet Stan did that with JD's complete blessing.

 

[Colin S]

Is Martin at the game today?

This is the only thing I can think of at the moment. Result at all costs as ultimately it’s not going to undermine Demi long term - but still don’t like to see it. Feel a bit for Demi there.

I don’t think there’s any issue here.

Stan went down 1st time to see if Demi wanted onions with his burger then again to apologise there wasn’t actually any onions & hasn’t been since he left in 1993..

 

[Tampa Blue]

Murphy, Bridge, Ferguson, Ralph and Egbri all had good halves. Rest are very average so far excluding Seadon who has little to do other than the goal

 

[Mad Cyril]

Is Martin at the game today?

Looking forward to him rushing the away end in the second half.

Is Martin at the game today?

I think he's in the West Stand.

I think it shows a bit of unity, Stan clearly getting involved and actually not just leaving JD on his own in his first ever game as a manager of sorts. All positive for me.

The players or fans?

Scunthorpe fans protesting .Gates locked.Good.

You are Sol Campbell and I claim my £5

Ha! It's that photo of Miles D.

 

[Barry.C]

One of our best moves by Stan was to get his old mate JUPP in goal for them ?
