    Another bad thing about that is Walsall 5 points better off than we are ;)

    On the basis of what I saw, it won't be 5 points for long.

    I posted this before that in next 4 games Southend play teams near the bottom of the table, just saying ;)

    Its not Southend that worry me. Our win v Stevenage was lucky. Bottom two by 5pm Saturday for us, then the real shit storm will start.

    You mean we are about to go on a long unbeaten run ;););)
    1point off relegation spot it only needs Southend to have a purple patch and I would say we are relegation certainties Memory fading a bit but in my 50 odd years as a fan I can't remember us in a lower league spot
    Perhaps @Bronco@Bronco can help ??

    With our current fortunes, automatic relegation spots are a blessing (if we finish 22nd) because we probably wouldn't get re-elected on the old system.

    I bet there's a few old stans out there really loving this.

    Mansfield only lost once in 7 if they hold on tonight since Clough came in. Great appointment for this level and they won’t be down there for long.

    We are in serious trouble

    Judging by what I've seen for the last 2 months I don't see how we close that gap!

    I’m glad your confident - because what I’ve seen for the last 10 games tells me otherwise.

    I really don’t get this type of confidence, it’s like some see teams struggling and think ‘ah no worries, they’ll be down there’ but then when it comes to us there is this crazy belief that things will just simply turn around.

    Mansfield are not going down. Clough is a great appointment as you say.

    a perfect example of how bringing in a new manager, who knows how to set up a team and knows his formations, can change results without changing players.

    Are you reading this Mr Rupp/ Master Sparks

    And could you ever see with this Bradford city side go to somewhere like Cambridge and win ? Just like Mansfield did tonight who were below us and now we are third from bottom of league two.

    He's a loyal man is Cpt Tom, its more likely he supports the eagles, Bedford Town, though I could see him being a rugby man and probably frequents Franklin's Gardens.

    The tea lady would give it a good go it doesn't mean she should be CEO.

    We don't need people to give it a good go. We need people that know what that to bloody do!

    Which idiot decided to give McCall an extra year? I don't believe that was Sparks. What do we do? Just keep watching McCall lose games? It's great this!
