I give up.

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

How many chances did we miss first half Sir ?
Not an under estimation to say 6.
What has that got to do with our defensive midfielder and captain ?
Let me make it clear if there are brick bats to be thrown - and today there are several - then let’s cast them in all directions.

if i couldnt read what had been written and understand it, i would probably give up myself.:rolleyes:

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

strange squad selection today, Zanzala only attacking threat on the bench.
Even more strange no Carvalho/Sousa given Clicker only just back from injury.
Bishop struggled to get in the game today. Possibly still not 100% but needs must.
Harsh to criticise Seamus specifically, made to look worse than he was by some awful passing.
More than once he was passed the ball and the same player who gave it him shouted man on straight away. Why pass to someone marked??
Really, really lazy passes, Finley in particular.
Coley raves about Alese but harsh on lad playing LB.
I wish I could like Zanzala but every game he just looks like he has never played football before. He has neither strength nor pace. Would take a player like Colby or Dion over him any day of week.
3 strikers missing with Kee & CBR away, whilst Connor Simpson must be biggest mistake of season. 3 salaries being paid.

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

All in all a pretty poor show, poor passing was evident, too many chances missed, this is just football sometimes everything goes right & sometimes they don’t, but the desire to close the opposition down was sadly missing from many players today

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

And let ME make it clear that amongst the strange exhibition of non-skills and lack of spirit and drive on show this afternoon from almost every player, the example given in the OPINION ( NB OPINION ! ) which I chose to share was for me one of the more important elements in all those which made for the defeat.

I could, as you probably could also, and suggest if i read your reply accurately, tabulate a list of the underachievments on show throughout the team, but this would I reckon be lengthy, boring , and non-productive,.
So again let me make it clear that this was me stating an OPINION, which I think is still permissible on our Forum, and not throwing a critique acerbeù, something which I would never do intentionally !.

Quo Vadis Accrington Stanley ??

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Do like your posts Yonnie, always got big words in you need a dictionary/thesaurus for. :D

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

guess where i would like to throw one?

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Yes, Stanley created lots of chances today. Pity two of them were taken by Southend.
After the performance at Ipswich, this is relegation form and, as Mrs.Exile observed, the apparent arguing and bickering amongst some of the players bodes ill.

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Well KJ, you've done it again mate but I must take some responsibility for today's debacle myself. I couldn't be there today & obviously this had a big impact on our team, I apologise profusely & promise not to miss another home game this season

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Thinking of 'relegation form ' Exile, Now that the gap between The Reds and Shrewsbury has extended to 5 points, are they not now firmly established as members of ' the bottom-seven club ? '
Some urgent repairs necessary methinks !.

( ps ... this is just my opinion !! . )

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Played ok first half, awful second.
I agree that the sub seemed strange.
Just didn’t click today, and probably no point over analysing it. One of those days.
I think we miss Sean though. Just gives more to the midfield than Pritchard does.

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

What’s happened to Connnor Simpson?
Simply not good enough for this level of football?

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Not good enough.
not injured....don’t think we can terminate loan either unless Preston want to recall...

Re: Southend Utd match thread.
 

Pritchard is being played out of position should be where Finley is he was good damn awful yesterday as was most of the team only player who was anywhere near his normal game was hauled off and replaced by the awful Zanzala who I,m afraid goes worse with every appearance, agree Simpson never gets a look in pointless him being here send him back get someone else in.
