So here we are.
Going into the second half of the season after only collecting 3 points in 6 games. Southern have now lost captain Matt Joy and winger Tim McLennan through various other commitments. God only knows where the goals will come from without a genuine striker who can find the back of the net. I understand Southern have had some narrow results through the first 6 games but eventually collapsing in the last 10-20 minutes through it seems a lack of a strong/winning mentality.
A lot of pressure on coach Fridge to find some half decent quality over the holiday break but I can't see it happening. Not even Tom Jackson could pull them out of this mess. I do like to stay positive as much as possible and obviously I support Southern United but radical changes need to happen at this franchise before it becomes a bigger mess. Year after year securing a bottom place spot or fighting for second bottom is what Southern are content with. I whole restructuring programme needs to take place from the players, coaching staff and organisational stand point. The way it's going Southern United may not exist in a couple years time, with no higher level football than the poor club standard down here and that would be a catastrophe.
So I say this, Southern please start picking up some points and playing the hard determined football that any bottom place team is capable of.
