Thanks Kev - but is a new manager needed?

To be honest I doubt it because who really gives a **** about the FA Trophy? A team like Southend, who let’s not forget just over a decade ago appeared in three high profile LDV vans trophy finals, should not be concerning themselves with cubs football competitions like this anyway. I actually take pride that we have never won the FA ****ing Trophy. Up the shrimpers

Maybe but (as I 'm sure you remember-I certainly do because I was there) ! we beat Brentwood 10-1 in the FA Cup back in 1968!

Are you sure?

I’d be surprised if GSM is here past January, and to be honest, he is another who I think hasn’t hit the heights this season in terms of his play. Obviously his goal output is fantastic.

A Felix or even a GSM as understudy, would be better than Wind and that’s no disrespect to Wind.

How would beyond January have affected the games so far this season - that response makes no sense whatsover.

So, are you telling me that Gus would have not been playing this season, even though he's our top scorer?

Wind came in, whilst Gus was suspended, got MOM, and was dropped, so based on this Gus would have played the same games this season (so far!) regardless of whether Felix had signed or not.

I’m not sure I’d be referencing 3 high profile LDV finals—just like the Trophy now,it was very much a lesser Cup competition…and of course we never looked remotely like winning any of them .
Two of them,of course,, were followed by memorable,exciting ,important play-off final victories.

We don’t know who would have started had we signed Felix. He might have been our first choice RWB, we simply don’t know.

It wasn't THAT long ago we were in a league cup quarter final at Tottenham......

People scoffing at winning the FA Trophy when we are sitting 16th in Step 1 of the non-league. I've read it all now.

Really on the fence here, I would like to see some real improvement for the second half of the season, if not then it’s time to go I feel.
