A season of extreme caution is required imho, especially as the Pandemic still holds the world by the throat. We mustn't forget that there is still the possibility of a further lockdown, although thankfully that does appear to be receding at the moment.
If we are put in lock down again or we have to live under restrictions of some sort, I really can't see any more grants, or even cheap loans being offered. That means no money to pay existing costs, let alone additional ones, however small they are.
Apparently two games already called off due to squad members testing positive. We're not out of the woods yet! Let's hope all Clubs are as stringent with their Covid testing!

Unfortunately John was in Papworth hospital during the lockdown and very unwell at the time but if there is anyone who would stand up to SC (nobody else is) then John would of been the man.
That's a big problem Gordon.
Some so desperate to hang onto their links with the Club, however tenuous that may be, they are prepared to close their eyes to all that's wrong.
Would you like to know who will be the next to jump ship?
More importantly, do these people know that there's something in the pipeline?

He is also going to need a committee to help him achieve the aims. Get them selling the progs Malc.
Good point Mallard. Malcolm shouldn't need to worry himself about finding people to sell the programs. His committee could make themselves available, at least until there are more members on board and more bodies to assist him.

By us I meant the friends committee, now can we move on
Malcolm, it was you that made a post directed at me, not the other way round. I therefore did you the courtesy of answering it. I really don't understand why you brought the fotl's into a thread about the general running of the football club. I take it that you have now acknowledged your error of accusing me of saying people were delusional? Also, that I didn't claim that things were going on behind peoples back (although you haven't said as such). Yes Malcolm, by all means, move on.

B &G I suggest you read what you said again in the last line
No Malcolm, I would suggest you do! Maybe you do not understand the difference between the word I posted and the word you did! Any chance of answering the question I raised by explaining who you mean by "us"?

B & G there is nothing going on behind any ones back, it just takes time. In fact I have just been talking to a gentleman who is going to look into fans being able to join the club online. Like I’ve said before I don’t have a magic wand and as for you saying people are getting delusional it’s a bit early to come out with that, I think you need to cut us a bit of slack
You've lost me again Malcolm. Firstly, I never said anything was going on behind anyone's back! Secondly, who do you mean by "us"? The Club or the FOTL? I didn't mention the FOTL who you are involved with as a representative of the supporters, and you are not a Club official so you can't speak for them when you say "us". Thirdly, I didn't say people were getting delusional!

The club has had a season with no crowds in grounds so more than enough time to have a plan in place.The warning signs were all there in previous big games.At present Southend fans are buying up home tickets at will and everyone knows it.The club had advertised 300 more away tickets were being released and then the offer was withdrawn without explanation.
I fear that the Club will take any money made available, irrespective of the source, and deal with any consequences later. If so, imho, that's not the way to run a full time professional football club.

I can’t argue against I couldn’t have said it better myself all these things need to be ironed out and they will be on time
With respect Malcolm, I really can't see that you are in a position to say that. You are the recently selected Chairman of the FOTL, and not a Club Official (the Supporters Club being Independent). There's only one person that can sort these things out, as by the look of things he won't allow others to make any decisions. He seems reluctant to sort matters out himself at the moment, as can be demonstrated by recent social media activity (and comments elsewhere ) by people who usually "have the Chairman's back" and have previously been in regular contact with him. If things are being done behind the scenes, then they need to inform the supporters, who are so clearly becoming very frustrated and disillusioned.

Good Morning guys,
Southend fan here in peace, I’m just wondering if anyone could shed some light on best places to park nearby to the ground, I’m coming in my van so can’t be anywhere with a height restriction, I saw somewhere that we can use the station car park if someone could confirm this.
Thanks in advance really looking forward to this away day
Parking will be a nightmare, van or car. I wouldn't even attempt to head directly to the ground by car. Station car park is very small, although it is right next to Morrisons. In your case, with a height restricted van, you may want to park on the side of road on the Hardwick Estate (where the Kentucky and B and Q are), and walk to the ground. Its not far (even if you don't manage to find the shortcut). In fact, Tesco's and Sainsbury's are not really that far from the ground either (10 minute walk at a guess).

If more people gave the same answers, it would be hard for the owner not to act on them. 
Common sense, but I'm not so sure on that one Marcus.
