Official Match Thread Southend United v Maidenhead United

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

Great to see Lewis Gard come on.....come on Lew!!!

We were so obviously being overun. Meyer not proactive. I'd have taken off both Atkinson and Fergi. Brought on Clifford at LB. Pushed Ralph up the wing and pushed Brunt into the centre and Gard also

Lewis Gard!

He's kind of a new signing.....

 

[40yearsafan]

Gard on for Aitkinson

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

To be fair - apart from Atkinson - it's the team that the Shrimperzone pre match poll selected. And the voting for the other CM to partner Ferguson was not clear cut - very mixed.

I didnt vote (apart from predicting a draw) so I'm exempt.

Good to see Lewis Gard come on.

Hope Gard does well, as much for as us

I'm not at the game - listening on the radio - so not in the best position to judge - but I wouldn't fancy a midfield pairing of Gard and Brunt.

This is painfully dire. Instead of building on our late first-half goal we don't seem to have re-appeared for the second-half. It's been all Maidenhead and it was absolutely no surprise when they equalised. What on earth has happened to the midfield? Their goal has woken us a bit but this second period is a reminder of just how bad we really are.

 

[Holy Joe]

So let's sack all of the useless bastards and pick the team ourselves. Maybe we would have enough money to sign some players without this useless bloated management team.

I wouldn't go that far - 15 of us selected no keeper

 

[united we stand]

Is there really only 27 of them. Is there only one mic in the ground in front of north bank or are we just not singing

 

[Linda Loan Shark]

We are moving up the league at the moment. Come on Southend!

Southend teams of old could have beaten this shower of **** with no keeper.

 

[Tangled up in Blue]

We are currently a place higher than we started before the game and ppl are still moaning. Every point counts in a relegation fight.

True but we're playing a PT team who we should be thrashing.

We can't beat Maidenhead at home. That's something to moan about.

Can hear them singing " We can see you sneaking out".

Totally agree.. if that point comes against a team higher in the table. This lot our below us and were in terrible form coming in to this game. One point from this game isn’t good enough whatever way you try to paint it.

Southend teams of old were playing at a higher level, sometimes much higher

 

[Rob1920]

I’m still clinging on to the belief there has to be three sides worse than us in this league. Still sad to think we’re certainly one of the worst 5 teams in the 5th tier.

Only because 2 teams are terrible in this lg, if it wasn't for them we'd be in the bottom 2 or 3.

We were 1-0 up and stopped playing. Should have scored more but gave up
