Great research and well presented, it put`s me at the top of the rollercoaster ride that is Southend United FC. I don`t want to go and look at the Takeover thread after reading this

Thank you!

I was reluctant to release it considering the off-field situation at present. Hopefully things are sorted out soon and my article becomes relevant.

Woo hoo…positivity, I’m grabbing this with two hands and padlocking in the tightest grip and going to have a beer in the sun!

Bloody hell. Great document and well researched

Excellent work, and a few of those names are on the famous whiteboard.

Sooner everything is sorted the better.

I guess we'll never know but it would be interesting to know how this excellent piece of work compares with John Still's long- or shortlist. In the present economic climate I would be more inclined to target more closely those players who are used to the higher living and housing costs in the southern half of the country or who have family ties there. It's largely a lot cheaper to live north of Peterborough. (I speak from experience!)

Good analysis! I've flagged up Mundle-Smith as someone we should have in mind a couple of times over the past years.

Not sure if it's anything, but Dackers has appeared in a promotional video released a couple of hours ago. Not sure when this was filmed though.

That was filmed months ago

It can take a while for the film to be developed & come back in the post ....

I just can't get into this transfer thread at the moment. It's like being in a sweet shop as a kid, but you can't buy anything. Meanwhile, all the good stuff is disappearing off the shelves.

I appreciate that you seem to know a fare more than many on here, so to bring a little humour back to this beloved old (message)board, could you maybe describe what the white board actually looks like? for those that aren't as well connected as yourself please? in essence a white board is a white board, but if you google white board there are literally thousands.

Do they use different colour ink similar to Smiffys emojis system?

Capital letters or joined up?

 

[TheCowboy]

I would like to know if they have a conventional board wiper, or just an old cloth, or Kevs undercrackers for instance (that they all giggle at when he removes a name)

If its the one, which i assume was in King Kevs Office.
Then

I have first hand experience of this, and can 100% confirm.
That.
It was a board and it was white, it had a standard white board eraser, and there was 4 pens.

Blue, Red, Black & Green.

Hope that helps.

Pretty sure the pens are red, green, blue and black

 

[TUMBO]

Is it wall mounted or free standing?

 

[Rattus Norvegicus]

Perhaps different colours for positions on the pitch?

Green = goalie?
Red = striker?
Black = defender?
Blue = midfielder?

This could then be developed further. For instance, an attacking midfielder could be in blue underlined in red .....
