When will the takeover go through? The Waiting Game...

[Jasrod]

Keep the faith jasrod I'm sure things will be better soon. Been there myself a few years back. Up the Shrimpers

Thank you we all support each other but Mr Martin doesn’t understand does he?

He dont care that c@nt ronald martin

 

[uysapie]

As an outsider, I get the impression that he does care, ABOUT HIMSELF!

 

[Ozzer]

There are reports that the government in waiting (Labour) is looking at this. It will mainly apply to agriculture, I believe. Apparently wealthy people are buying farms to avoid inheritance tax. If you buy a working farm, it will be free of IHT.

Don't tell me Martin thought Fossetts Farm qualified?

 

[Massimo Giovanni]

Anyone else struggling to feel anger, sadness, or any real emotion after all this? I just feel so numb to it all. I think Ron has worn me down so much over the years to the point I just feel nothing anymore.

Same here.
I am hoping for the best but preparing for the worse.
This has been going on for so long, a long long too long period spanning, in reality, 20 years, with the real pain being the last 5-10.

Come weds we will all know if Southend United will still be alive or not Fingers crossed all will be OK

2 weeks ago I finally gave in and hit the antidepressants. My life over the last 3 years has declined rapidly! I’ve stopped working and this is all Mr Martins fault. Don’t suppose he gives 2 about it though. My only real release in life is watching the blues. Please whomever/whatever please get this sorted. Fan since 1976

Bless you mate let’s hope we all get the solution we need .. I hope things work out for you and all of us

Yes,
when life sometimes becomes a struggle, the only thing you have left to escape to is your football,
Your club that you follow, to escspe to.

It really can be a lifeline.

RON YOU ARE A C##T.

Watched a rerun of the playoff final on Sky yesterday. My boy asked ‘can we go and watch them daddy?’ I said I hope so.

One spineless, gutless, rodent **** of a whore can take that all away.

May the lord help him if he does.

I’m afraid I don’t have a crystal ball Tommy, like most on here I do have two other balls though and I asked them but they couldn’t agree - one said yes, the other no. I suppose we’re no further forward with your questions are we?

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

This is no use whatsoever to most of you on here, but one strand of hope I am clinging to is that Justin and the members of COSU all come across to be decent ethical people.

All of Ron's devious underhanded actions in the last week and the need for the council to have to put in place a more forceful negotiation l hope is strengthening their resolve to see this through and buy Ron out.

As l said it's no use whatsoever, apart from it's helping me through the next couple of days.

 

[Colblue]

Is there another option open here in that the consortium can say, yes we are still interested in completing the deal but we are stepping away from bankrolling the club until we own it?
Ron doesn’t have a pot to **** in I know so would that be the final twist of his arm to sell or would he go down the administration route

Yes I think that is an option if they don't get security on putting new funds in - but will need the judge on wed to adjourn

 

[Leeboy]

it may mean nothing - or it may mean COSU are having crisis talks right now - but I’ve just driven past John Watson’s house (he lives just up the road from me in Rochford) and Gary Lockett has just turned up.

Knock on the door mate.
Get involved

 

[Paulie Walnuts]

I for one would be happy to buy my season tickets ASAP, if it helps pay off the 500k debt, and funds wages etc for the next couple of months.

It would also give 3000 of us yet another reason to stick it all over the rotten family, if he continues with his nonsense.

 

[Leeboy]

Knock on the door mate.
Get involved

i’m gonna keep driving past up and down all day see who else turns up

I agree with your thoughts. Plus I cling to the hope that the majority of the consortium are local business people who were well aware of
The Martins business ethics and were prepared for their shenigans.
