Sawyer returned to Southend United on 14 July 2009 on loan until January 2010.

After a series of breaches in club discipline Sawyer was sent home by Southend and then at his own request had his loan cut short and returned to Chelsea on 26 October.On 12 November, it was announced that Sawyer's contract with Chelsea had been terminated.


Have just found this. Haven't seen it on this site so apologies if its old news. Appeared on the bench both league and champions league so must have been serious. Now signed for Barnet.

Oooooh, controversial...! What did he do, does anyone know?

Chelsea to Barnet....well done!

He scored last night for Barnet

Does anyone have the scoop on what he did to get disciplined by Southend and to get his contract terminated by Chelsea?

Also, is he any good?

Apparently he failed to attend a team meeting.

Thanks.   That explains why the Shrimpers dumped Sawyer, but it says nothing about why Chelsea terminated their contract with him (unless they don't want to deal with someone who has shown unprofessional tendencies whilst on loan to another club).

He's got a track record of indiscipline during his short career.

Guess this was the last straw.

its pretty much what happened with Carlton Cole isnt it? he returned from Charlton with a bad rep and apparently acted an arse in our ressies so we got rid.
