Breaking News Tilly No Longer Hopeful - misses out on loan striker!

[Clinton Baptiste]

Does the piece in the echo not say Tilly is still looking? We've not been able to get this particualr striker, doesnt mean someone else might not come in.

Why not say who it was cant do no harm now,?

I agree, out them, sounds like another moron like Foran, happy to sit around and take the money for doing nothing.

I don't understand the "settled in the area" part. Surely it's not that much of a hardship to work away from home for a couple of months is it ? Sometimes I really hate some footballers and the way they behave.

it will be the typical 'we went for him'. every player that does well in this league or championship this old chesnut comes out.

truth is we can't attract anyone at the moment and havn't been able to for a year now.

Cheer up son, Ron's blog will be here soon.

Cant they name him now he has declined to join us , among other Clubs. Be interesting to see what type of calibre we are looking at !!

 

[Scamps]

At least tell us who u went for tilly????
Whoever plays up front tonight they will be wearing a southend shirt, so we just need to support them like we did on saturday and the players will respond...
I say give youth a go up top tilly!!!

 

[Angell Delight]

Certainly wasn't a southern team then......I suppose on that basis Hayter could have been quite a good shout.

You think so? It has Dickinson all over it in my opinion.........

They would only get ripped into for doing so, so no, please don't tell us.

I can't believe people are slagging Tilly off because he came out and said what everyone was thinking, and unfortunately we couldn't bring him in.

We would all be having a pop at Tilson for not trying to bring a forward in with only one avaliable for tonight.

I agree 100 % funny enough players in the Championship and even Divsion one dont fancy coming to Southend United as they dont fancy South Essex area... lets be honest on here WE love our club but most people living past the M25 from the A13 or A127 dont know were Southend is ..lol

All this bollex Ive read about Agents dont like Ron Martin n Southend United FC telling their players to stay away etc is Total crap, with us been the third highest payers to these gits they must love Ron Martin

From the Echo

.
The Shrimpers chief had hoped to sign a forward who is currently out of favour at a Championship club.
But he has now opted against a switch to Roots Hall.
“He’s settled in his area and has turned down loan moves to a number of clubs, including ourselves,” confirmed the 42-year-old.
“It’s not ideal but we are looking around again now and hopefully something else will come up.

Could'nt have been Hayter then. Cant see how anyone would be happy settled in the Doncaster area.

What about that Sawyer bloke ? Christophe ? Federeci ? Robinson ? Dervitte ? Robson - Kanu ?

Oh come on matty. I doubt we've signed as many players in a season as we have this year since Barry Fry was manager.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

I had it confirmed to me last night that player in question was indeed Gary McSheffrey.
