Stan Collymore

[Dave Smiths Love Child]

Has he now left the club or still employed ?
Not looking for debate but just gone quiet on his role ?

 

[Holy Joe]

Last I heard it was to be decided once the takeover is complete

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Hope in attends the Cliffs event so we can show our gratitude

 

[leeblue]

Stan was a catalyst for change in our darkest hour......massive respect for his efforts.

 

[5ufc]

Yep ty stan

 

[AustScullyPriorPowell]

As a player, his transfer fee and his help over recent times, no one has done more for our club!
If he’s around or has gone, love and respect always

 

[Leeboy]

Tom Lawrence confirmed at the recent AGM he is still involved but has taken a back seat for the time being

 

[archibald]

My Brother-in-Law had an email very recently from him about Corporate Sponsorship options.

anything on why?

 

[overseas shrimper]

anything on why?

Maybe because, at the time, we were a zombie club, in limbo and in a long term embargo, leaving SVC with little to do?

 

[stewart]

God willing SVC stays with us ,we wouldnt have survived but for him, I hope TL JR and the consortium along with Kev and Co can and will offer SVC a truly meaningful position within the club to show our gratitude toward him.

Stan stuck his head above the parapet and took the pelters from some fans, unwarranted I must add.

He was a legend before and he's an even bigger legend in my eyes now, I didn't see many ex players clamouring to help or try and instigate change and thankfully Stan used his outspoken nature, contacts and presence to help rattle Ron enough to start a chain reaction which ended with us finally being rid of Ron. I'd love the fans/ club to recognise him in some way going forward, whether that be part of a revamped Roots Hall named in his honour or something of that ilk.

Thank you Stan

This!

It needed someone of Stan's passion for the club, his understanding of the club's former glory days as a solid member of the 92. It needed someone removed enough from the regime to not be affected by some sort of backlash (and many former players still have new careers to be affected). Stan has a a high enough profile and almost nothing to lose with his post-football career, so he was in the position to stand up and be counted.

SVC - thank you for setting the wheels in motion to get our club back!

I honestly dread to think where SUFC would be right now if it wasn't for Stan, probably dead and buried with the making plans for how many flats he could fit on RH.

Would the 3 Amigos be here without Stan's input? I will always be greatful for everything he has done,

Stan put this management team together people need to remember that

 

[BedfordShrimper]

Stan is the one who really started the process in my eyes. After that Chesterfield 0-4 game, he went on BBC Essex to speak and was shouting from the rooftops everywhere about our situation. He brought attention to all the issues. Of course the protests brought attention and these fans were heroes as well, but Stan was on a mission to help the club after that game.

 

[CaptainSmudger]

Stan is one of us ! True Blue Heart for Southend United Forever
Thank you Stan , Looking Forward to a post from you soon after takeover completion

 

[Linda Loan Shark]
