League One Kevin Bond resigns as Southend United manager

[Fourthstand]

‘Resigns’ as opposed to pushed? Terrible start for one of our bogey teams. Who’s free to take up a new job? ‘Arry? Jose?

Phil Brown maybe. There’s quite a few out of work now, Steve Cotterill. I doubt Phil Parkinson would want to go there.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Sol Campbell go there as he worked wonders at Macclesfield and they are a bigger club with some potential. There’s been talk of a new ground for years too

I nominate Darren Patterson.

I think it's a shame that Kevin Bond has resigned as Southend's manager

Quite.

Like Luton is an airport with an outside toilet.

Fossetts Farm has been a "dream" for Sarfend since I was living there and that was the best part of 16 years ago, first up Sainburys were going to buy Roots Hall & build a supermarket/housing affair, since then its been boardroom "turmoil" with debts being pushed around like pinballs.

And, on another thread, "building a new ground is easy".........

I once shagged a girl from Southend on holiday in Corfu. She was a supporter of the shrimpers, but for the sake of meaningless sex I thought playing away was an opportunity I could not pass...

I can remember when I lived in Chelmsford back in the seventies there was much talk about a ground then. Bit like when we were at the Manor in the seventies too
