@jmpschooley @CJPhillips1982 Proper business leaders do not work like that. Their only concern is the well being of the club. Proper business is not very nice. This lot have been totally brutal in their actions over last few months. Should have been done and dusted by now... advert for a job - this is 2026!

@woolworths100 @CJPhillips1982 Sorry, but how could they have put out an advert for the Head Coach position without relieving the current one of his duties, which they didn't want to do before Wembley?

@DulcetDave @LBC I was actually listening to the show but missed that bit.

@woolworths100 @LBC Thanks - for your generous feedback, much appreciated

Following the Alan Milburn report into young people who are not in education or employment I was pleased to join @venessafeltz on @LBC We discussed the difficulties in trying to escape from embedded unhealthy lifestyles & how chance2work.com is trying to help -press play

@DulcetDave @TomMcTague @NewStatesman Hope not.....

@TomMcTague @NewStatesman Clever cover

Latest edition of the @NewStatesman is out!

@shivaas Sorry- should have a ?

@shivaas Fully understand and a good example with Lincoln. Of course, Brighton, Brentford Notts Co have business gambling models external to football and been at it 10 years. One question really - what happens when every club is run on modern data. Will need big pockets to buy the data.

Lincoln City showing just a fraction of what's possible in sports when you adapt to modern systems and leverage technology to find the edge (while still leverage human expertise). Hat's off to them for creating an environment & org strategy that enables this forward thinking and now reaping the benefits.

@benhumphrey_04 The answer is - 'cost cutting'.

What the fuck are we doing 🤡

@SUEPAssoc Thanks. Will keep for time being, I reckon it's the only copy around. As long as you know I hva copy. Part of our history.

@woolworths100 Ooh wow - re owning programme! If you ever feel able to part with it please do let us know - that match is a hugely under-appreciated key part of our club history and something we will be rectifying with plans afoot. Please DM us if appropriate. 💙

On 30th April 1912, 114 years ago, Southend United beat Coventry City 1-0 to win the Southern Counties Charity Cup, to date our only domestic cup win. Jerry Thomson, one of our 1906 Pioneers, lifted the trophy. Just one of the stories in shrimperstrust.co.uk/suepa/southend… Order yours now!

@CJPhillips1982 Last night was just the time when you needed John Still around - but he was sacked a few weeks ago!

@FAB_SUFC @benhumphrey_04 Please keep them. Not all about the £. Would suggest - less glossy, not 48 pages but say 16 with 10 pages of interesting content, less photos, more fanzine type content written by fans. Or - let a different business sponsor the programme each week - selling cheaply

TALK TO US! Matchday programme - 1 sold for every 13 fans. Great for collectors, but process possibly a drain on time resources for little financial return. Replace with other forms of media? Reduce length? Outsource editorial process? Discuss or email fab@southend-united.co.uk.

@CJPhillips1982 In the days of data driven analysis, there is Still. Nobody knows a player like Still. The odd mistake, but generally right 80% plus of the time. He is exactly what Southend need.

@Kaylalula Had many dealings with Sarah - she was wonderful in her role. Loyal to the club, kind and understanding to everyone she dealt with. She really cared and would go the extra mile. A sad and poor decision by the club. A heartless decision. I wish her well for the future. Thank you.

If only we'd retained an extremely competent ticket office manager.....🙄

Rising Cost of competing in League One highlighted by Leyton Orient having a 20% ⬆️ in revenue in 2024/25 but still losing £100k a week from day to day operations

@DulcetDave It will be horrible. They spoil, spoil and spoil some more. Perfected the art.

No surprise that Orient’s FA Cup tie at Tamworth has been selected for TV
