I think management take the Moneyball approach to games and play the percentages. How many goals are scored from certain positions, for every Beckwith worldie theres's 3 or 4 Allarakhiah's that end up in the back in the stand after shooooooooooooooooting. Hard to argue with the results. Saying that they should work on finishing is just redundant because they probably do, they're National League players for a reason. |

Fair enough, maybe I'm being too harsh and prematurely judging him. Will be delighted if I'm way off the mark and he proves me completely wrong (again). |

I would have to disagree, I think Amantchi has been dire in all his games thus far (including Solihull). Mitchell, for all his faults, still managed to find the net on a pretty regular basis, something Levi hasn't looked remotely like doing. His late 'effort' last night was so poor I actually laughed out loud and for someone of his size and stature he rarely wins headers or holds up the ball. His one shining moment came against Burnley U21's with an (admittedly good) header and I thought that he might at least have some use when we're chasing a game and slinging over crosses for him to cause a bit of chaos, but that's not really the way we play. |

Kind of surprised by this. Although he's proven he can score goals at this level I thought he'd end up at a (no disrespect intended) 'lesser' NL team or even a progressive looking outfit from the step below. Personally don't think he should be anywhere near a team that harbours serious ambitions to get out of this league, but good luck to him all the same. |

EEL is only 32. Surprised re Hogan, it's suddenly quite a crowded defensive picture with the new signings as well. Makes you think there may be something in the rumour that Beckwith could be on his way. |

The final isn't until June 1st, going to feel like a very short off season for whoever loses. Coupled with the psychological blow as well it might take a while to get them up and challenging again next season. |

I've seen lots of comments regarding us being 'comfortable' or having them 'on the ropes' at 3-1 and it just never felt like that to me. Some games you know they're put to bed with a 2 goal advantage but Southend had been having a go all night and it was far from over for me.
Also thought they should've had a penalty late on (and Hogan would've walked already being on a yellow) and our penalty was rather soft. [Post edited 17 May 12:51]

Extra time if level after 90 apparently. |

Far more than the football on display or the result, this is the sort of thing that will dissuade potential new supporters, particularly those with kids, from returning.
Dispiriting. |

Poor header out I think by Beckwith?, when he'd have been better off putting it out for a corner. Ultimately disappointing but a decent enough point. |

Didn't have a great view of it but thought we dodged a bullet when Hogan bought their man down on the stroke of halftime, looked a pen to me. |

Not saying it's the case with us, but I've read of instances where the manager just doesn't like having senior pros around because a) they carry too much influence in the dressing room and b) as they're coming to the end of their career, they might be a perceived threat to the managers job... |
