I think AF is focussing on short term measures to start season, safety certificate etc whilst JD is focussing on brokering a sale. Wasn't it reported that JD was talking to 2 potential buyers about the new offer and I understand that didn't include Kimura. Having said that little bit surprising she wasn't aware - did she mention any other potential buyers?

The other thing about turning RH into a community asset. I think there are pros and cons to this. The con is that it may make the asset less attractive to a purchaser. It also wouldnt give us another 6 months to find a buyer.

A lot of people listen, to a small group of people, who know nothing about everything and everything about nothing talk about Southend United till there hearts content in an open and friendly forum.

We have BIG KEZZA dropping bombs, now and again. Other than that it’s pretty boring and uninformative.

I respect the fact that she’s making an effort in liaising with the league and assisting the Trust but she can’t be that involved with the sale of the club. She started by saying that she hoped Ron would discharge sufficient debt to allow us to start the season.

Now if we could get Roots Hall declared as a building of historical interest, we could secure a grant to 'do her up'

We have to put the heat on Ron Martin tonight and tomorrow morning, put him under more pressures to take the deal or face hell next Friday when deadline from National League passed on 28th.

I don't think there's a deal for Ron to take at the moment - there are no bids on the table are there?


Not saying no protest - but it's not about him accepting a bid right now.

The two things don't have to be mutually exclusive though? A sale is taking longer than anybody hoped, but even he knows that we can't stay a zombie club much longer.
