Quoted from MarinerDevil
Chesterfield have now said they've turned it down.  It's a really odd move, Southend would have to pay substantial compensation when they're already in a financial tight spot, and surely Rowe would rather continue doing well with Chesterfield until a league club eventually comes calling?  

Smacks of a club desperately trying to show ambition to its supporters while the walls are crumbling.


Or a chairman realising that the solids have really hit the air conditioning and that he has to invest to save the club from oblivion. A kind of anti Fenty.

Maybe he took some advice from Lincoln which went along the lines of "call John Fenty and whatever he tells you, do the opposite."

"Hi John, we've just sacked Phil Brown, what should we do?..."

"Oh mate.....firstly put a former player in temporary charge who has no management experience. Or your physio. That'll save you a few bob. Look around the Botswanan second division for a manager who you might be able to get for the rest of the season for free, you can convince him it's a great opportunity. Doesn't matter if he's been successful. Not just Botswana, look at the Faroe Islands or Ethiopia as well. Finally, see if there's a washed up 'name' who's either a drunk or certifiable and will come for absolutely f*ck all because he's desperate. The money you save from paying the manager you can pocket. And one final thing...and this is really important.....it's not your fault, either Brown didn't do what he promised or it's the supporter's fault."

"Thanks John, that's really helpful.......BOB! Call Chesterfield...."
