    Robins did quite well here, but wasn't here long enough to get found out.

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    i don't know, Mowbray is not afraid to switch things around. RCC did okay at Rochadale and if he is doing well at development level, Mowbray might just give him a game, to keep both on their toes. Might also do Burge good to be taken away from the pressure for a few games.

    Big Reda

    I wasn't bothered whether he signed or not. He is a great threat at corners and set pieces, however his positional play is questionable and he is very clumsy defensively. however on a positive note, I hope Mowbrays experience as a central defender and a coach can develop him. Although he is...

    Will that be our regular defence ?

    Martin has looked better under Mowbray. I think Mowbray has boosted his confidence by giving him a simplified role...just head and kick it away, no nonsense defending.

    Burton wingers are their main threat and have caused teams problems. I think we coped quite well and Stokes and Rickets still got forward on occasions. I thought Stokes had a good game.

    ...replays suggested Vincelot was narrowly onside...

    He wouldn't flag if he knew Vincent was level or behind Martin when Martin played the ball towards goal which was the case and the linesman was in the best position to see that.

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    It wasn't across him so not necessarily an easy take. Fullback and midfield allowed the cross too easy and both central defenders gave their attacker a free header. We were still set up defending a corner. Burgess 5th in line for any blame and that shows how fans are being biased

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    I said before season started Mowbray would give Burgess his chance. I also said picking up good keepers on loan is easier than other positions. Once Premireship teams and Championship teams settle Mowbray will bring in a good keeper on loan. By the way Burge hasn't cost us any points this...

    Aaron Phillips

    I wouldn't disagree with that. Rickets and Johnson main culprits for one Southend goal...an acre of free space for free a header.

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    Perhaps because our fans are constantly criticising him. I don't think he is the strongest keeper in the league, but some of the blame put on him has been unjust in the past. Today was a performance from a keeper who looked like he feels under pressure. Players are aware of social media it...

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    Because people analyse every little mistake by the likes of Willis and Burge. In fact they don't they just say they are shit at every opportunity. In contrast they love Johnson (rightly) for his strengths, but ignore his weaknesses. He can be a see saw in games and can look a liability at...

    Burge is going to give me a heart attack!

    Burge didn't have the best game and rode his luck at times, but made a points saving save. The type people were saying the other day he didn't make. The first drop he recovered well. The second a long range shot no one near him so didn't matter, I have seen top class keepers do that...

    ...replays suggested Vincelot was narrowly onside...

    PVA you are the sort of person when a defender scores with skill, or a linesman gets a decision right; it is a fluke...when they get it wrong they are shit. Lets be honest you have no idea what the linesman saw. I would say nobody put a case forward of Vincelot not touching the ball it was...

    So a keeper can wear one but not an outfield player can't?
