All the Southend fans calling me out when I said he would be gone by Halloween. Whoops. Martin doing it to save his own bacon but he’s gone beyond that, deluded.

If you don’t approach Darren Currie then you need a serious other alternative.

I mean I hope he’s learnt his lesson after working under TK to avoid cretinous chairmen, but he really would unite the fans and get the feeling back in the team.

Will never forgive TK for fucking up the situation with him at ours.

He should have been appointed in July 2020 when he was interviewed three times! He'd be utterly mental to join us, everybody out there would be, this is not a redeemable situation until Ron Martin either sells or steps back from all football duties and decisions at the football club.
The board needs a 90% clear out, Ricky Duncan needs sacking as does Robinson the head of our so called scouting network.

We're in a position where unless there are major, major changes to the football club, top to bottom, then who comes in does not matter one iota. Just for the comedy I'd like to see Ron appoint himself as caretaker manager.

Brown getting the boot was the most obvious thing you've ever seen. Man was never doing anything down here this season.

Ricky Duncan is gone. He’s been nicking money from the club. Money that he claims is owed to him because he hasn’t been paid in full the missing the % he earns from all youth academy sales.
It’s in tribunal atm so not actually meant to be saying anything but a load of fans know it already.
It was only found since Tom Lawrence come in and there has been a audit of the club

John Askey is flattered to be linked to the Southend job.

Good, I've heard many things about him and none of it good.

A bit harsh on Phil Brown as he was only 198 wins away from his target of 200 in 3 seasons.
Managerial career over you'd think, that or he'll rock up in Thailand or Hong Kong for some natural tanning time.

It just means someone somewhere has stuck a tenner on it, lower league manager odds mean absolutely nothing, at one point a few years ago we had Danny Cowley 1/3 and then Nigel Adkins at 2/5 and yet we ended up appointing Marcus Bignot.

Yeah, it wouldn't make any sense for it to happen

You can’t bin Parky surely!!!

He’s been there what, 11 games? He’s never managed at this level before so he’s probably still figuring the league out, once he gets it sussed you’ll be golden

Rusk on the other hand…. It’s timeeeeeeeeeeeee to go!

Rusk's gone from what I'm hearing.

My source so it could be a load of bollocks, blame me if I'm wrong. But I'm hearing he's gone.

Nah. Even if he goes, he's the symptom, not the disease. No manager in their right mind will work as a glorified coach under Wilson

I don't rate Wilson but a better manager/coach should be able to get this squad of players doing much, much better than they are.

Ask any oppo fan on here and they'll tell you we have one of the best squads on paper in the league.

A lot of it is at Rusk's door IMO. Wilson obviously at fault for sacking Jim and appointing him. And there are also issues with his strategy in signings, very scattergun and not measured.

But a lot of managers would love to work with this squad.

only 13 points off Grimsby with 2 games in hand... no time to panic just yet.

if we arent in the playoffs by Christmas though expect some reaction...

Indeed, we have a very nice run of fixtures coming up now so if we aren't charging up the table in the next month or so you can expect our fans to get very restless. I'm personally happy to give him at least the January transfer window to fix things, but if we're still struggling to make a mark after that then we'll no doubt reconsider his position.

I'm going to stay positive and just put last night down to the players getting sucked in by the occasion. Hopefully it takes the pressure off the Torquay game a bit.

If Rusk has been / will be let go imminently, then a potential replacement could be Andy Morrison the ex Connahs Quay manager.

did well with them by all accounts and usurped TNS as the incumbents in recent years. Will be Manchester based too, although will potentially be too big a personality to clash with your chairman/owner

would that go down well with the County massive?

I can understand the panic with the money that’s been spent, but there is such a long way to go.

Around this point last year we were sat in the relegation zone… we ended up making the play offs. Anything can happen yet and I fully expect the teams with smaller squads to hit a brick wall through the winter months once the niggling injuries start to take their toll. That’s when yourselves and Stockport will capitalise..

our fixtures up to Christmas are in theory very favourable and should see us rise up the league, but we know we love to fail with teams in the lower half of the table - its the Wrexham way!
