    A list of our SZ Room 101 topics.

    I assume most of you have seen room 101 on TV. In case you havent the basic idea is that you can put items (topics for the sake of this thread) into a room and throw away the key. These are topics that get rehashed all the time, ones where people seem to have missed the point or maybe just...

    Memory Lane Potted History of SUFC on Football League Show

    Maybe someone has mentioned this on another thread but I assume you have seen the three min article they did on SUFC on the Football League show this weekend? Some great albeit brief clips including v Man City in the 50's on a mudbath pitch, Motty at the top of the West Stand in the snow...

  8. Liverpool Youngster Training with Blues

    According to Chris Phillips on Twitter, there's a Liverpool youngster training with us with a view to a move, which I assume is a loan. Anybody have an idea as to who this is?
  9. Colin Firth.

    What is the world coming to when Colin Firth can win the Oscar for best actor? I haven't seen the film which I assume is unwatchable **** like the rest of his output but for me he is a poor mans Hugh Grant at best.

    Question Rotherham ground

    Anyone know latest re Rotherham's expectations for going in to a new ground. I understand that they moved in to Don Valley in 2008 with expectations to move in to a new ground in 2011, but I can't find anything re progress. I assume none? If none does anyone know how long they expect to be at...

    If your stand was closed where would you move....

    Assume for just one imaginary second that your stand at Roots Hall was closed due to lets say a water leak for the season which stand would you move to and why. I would go from the South to the West i think. I hate all the posts but would be good to be part of the atmosphere a bit more. What...

    PL Weekly Points Round 15

    I can only assume the high scores enjoyed in the week were a false dawn as it was back to below par this time around .. S2tc makes a rare appearance at the top table, along with The Big Shrimp who emerged from a poor trot of form to share the lead this week .. though being honest 7 isn't really...

    Child benefit to be scrapped for higher taxpayers.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-11464300 This would make more sense to me if those whose earnings fall below the higher rate threshold received more child benefit which I assume they won't. I would also like to see some sort of means testing on benefits for the elderly - they don't all...
  14. If Tilly or Brush...

    ...still haven't been paid, how does that make you feel? Would you want to do something about it? What can we as fans do? The last we heard, we'd been told that they would be properly paid. Yet, we know that Tilly alleged a few weeks ago that he hadn't been paid since April. These...

    I'm sorry Mr Martin

    I was going to post this on the tread about the AGM, asking if anyone going along wanted to say a quick sorry to RM from me. Instead I have just decided to mentioned a slightly embarrasing encounter I had with Mr (and I think Mrs) Martin at the weekend. I was having breakfast in a cafe in...

    5 years on and we're still considered racists

    Found this little gem of a quote on the Southend Yahoo email group. Take from a Bradford blog (I assume it's www.boyfrombrazil.co.uk) Now, I don't usually condone threatening messages but if my memory serves me right, didn't this guy seem to have it in for our support after the disgusting...
  17. Meeting with ron !!!

    Can anyone arrange a meeting with ron martin and find out when bob the builder will actually be on site so we can have our new stadium!! Are there any proposed dates? I assume its going to have to be soon because sainsbury's are not going to be a push over with the money they have already invested!!

    The Trust

    After we have received good news from the courts, I don't want create distrust, but I'm just confused about the Shrimpers Trust. As I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong), the trust loaned £60k to Ron without consultation to it's members. Today, Ron has said ALL debts have been paid -...

    Eastbourne Views

    Got my first pre-season for a few years under my belt today. Eastbourne is only 45 mins or so from home so I made the trip along with my daughter. My first thoughts were I was amazed by big the squad were in terms of height. There are some decent sized players out there which I am guessing must...
  20. Question Would you be willing to do something to bring about a change of ownership?

    Simple question really. Who is happy with the way the club is being run or who would like to try to do anything they can to bring about a change of ownership? Many people will know I've been advocating for a change of ownership at the top for several months. Whether that's the consortium or...
