    Nominations

    Gentlemen - and hopefully some of you ladies - it's that time again. The Totty Cup is back and it's bigger and better than ever. As last year, we will be harnessing the outstanding intellect, wide-ranging intelligence and thought-provoking insight that exists on this fine board and putting it...
  2. Question Ofah

    Does anyone know the name of the Only Fools episode where they get some Albanian prince or something suck in the back of the lorry returning from France after a booze cruise? Everyone thinks the immigrant has been kidnapped and the only word he knows is Gary. Thankyou!

    Ex-Shrimpers League Goalscorers Table: # Week 17

    At last Hooper is knocked off the top, and step up Neville Roach, who scored the opener for Didcot Town, before limping off with a torn hamstring against Gosport Borough in a 3-1 win. Hooper did bag a brace of cup goals against Alfreton Town, but as we all know they wont count.. More podium...

    Lee Bradbury started the weekend with a brace at Grimsby as Bournemouth staged a great comeback with 10 men to get 3-3 draw. Another brace for Matt Harrold, who is starting to score goals for fun now - a 4-2 win over Port Vale as the unbeaten run continues. The only other goal in League 2...

    Ex-Shrimpers League Goalscorers Table: # Week 14

    Michael Kightly back into real contention with a fine brace for Wolves against high-flying Burnley. Leon Clarke seems to be getting better and scoring a few, and added to his tally with only goal for Sheffield Wednesday against hapless Doncaster. Still some non-league results to come in, but...

    Ex-Shrimpers League Goalscorers Table: # Week 13

    A fair bit of action to catch up on this weekend.. Firstly concerning action at the business end of the table. Neville Roach into silver medal contention with the only goal for Didcot Town at Bracknell Town. Barry Conlon also onto the podium knocking off Billy Paynter, with a fine brace at...
  9. Ref Watch ..... Colchester

    This Saturday sees a second attempt in 3 weeks by Mick Russell, from St Albans, to get to Roots Hall. He was originally appointed for the Stockport game and pulled out through injury to be replaced by Trevor Kettle. He is (usually) a very decent referee. A very steady official, this will be...

    Ex-Shrimpers League Goalscorers Table: # Week 12

    Both Gary Hooper, and Charlie Macdonald scored the openers for their clubs yesterday. Charlie now up to second place.. I am still awaiting a batch of reports from my scouts, but one early one was that Mark Rawle scored for Redditch United in a 3-2 win at Southport. This had escaped my radar as...

    Ex-Shrimpers League Goalscorers Table: # Week 11

    Starting this a little earlier this week, as I have a spare 10 minutes. Billy Paynter did what he could never do for us, and hit the net at Roots Hall... then back to his brilliant best, injuring himself celebrating. Gary Hooper after a barren month, and still nobody catching him up decided...

    England Have Turned Me Grey

    This week, I made the shocking discovery that I'm going grey. Underneath my enormous thatch of long brown hairs, two brigades of white ones have been outflanking me just above the ears in a slow, silvery advance that had gone entirely unnoticed. The sad thing is that I can pinpoint the origin of...
  14. Ref Watch ..... Stockport County

    After the excesses of Keith Hill last weekend, this Saturday brings an altogether different type of official to the Hall. Man in charge is the (usually) very decent referee Mick Russell from St Albans. He is a very steady official and this will be his 5th Southend match and his third at Roots...

    Michael Kightly continues to knock the goals in with the opener for Wolves, and Charlie Mulgrew's brace lifts him into the top 5 ! Freddy Eastwood is back on the goal trail which is good to see at last. Two other notable additions, was the rise of Neville Roach who hit two for Didcot Town in...
  17. Ref Watch .... Donny away

    Our referee for Friday night needs no introduction to Match of the Day viewers or other Premiership football watchers. Mark Halsey from Bolton is the man in charge. He has been a member of the Select Group of referees since its inception in 2001, he is a FIFA referee and refereed this year's...

    Youth team update

    Southend United's Under-18 side drew 1-1 at Rushden & Diamonds this morning, dominating the fixture after taking the lead through trialist Michael Moon on 12 minutes. However, a second half equaliser midway through the period denied Blues' Youths all three points. The match report, compiled with...
