  1. Coleman Cast Into the Championship Graveyard.

    Another season in the Premier League graveyard grinds to a halt and Chris Coleman departs Coventry, charged with the heinous crime of failing to take them aboard the Barclays gravy train. Who’d be a manager in the Championship, eh? Such is the stature of the second tier of English football in...

    For those of you that do not have access to the Echo, I have typed up some of the sections in the paper. I hope these are of interest to someone, and also hope it's OK to post them here. If there not - remove them.. I have posted them in the Echo thread, but people might not see them in there...

    Pre match thread : Southend united v A friend of dorothy's hove albion

    So another relegation 6 pointer is upon us , well atleast if you still beleive relegation can be avoided. Brighton are in relatively good form and timed that form wonderfully given they were in the bottom 4 for large parts of the season. We on the other hand are a like a boxer who started...

    I have a bad feeling!

    Not that I have visited any psychics recently or dabbled in occult themed seances with mystical spirits but I woke up this morning at 4:30 am in utter shock and depression. I probably had a bit of post taumatic stress disorder after witnessing our match against "Yoevil" and sealing our...

    Should I reply to a txt from an ex

    Last Saturday, I'm laying in bed with Mrs Chadded, and my fone gets a txt. I pick it up, and it's from my ex of two years ago. There wasn't exactly much chance or point of hiding it, it came up on my phone as Ex+******, and my mrs knows who this person is. Mrs Chadded's exact response when the...

  6. Why have the consortium not phoned Ron Martin?

    According to TrueBlue, after his summons today: "One thing to add he said if the consortium are serious why have they not phoned him". Strictly speaking this is true by those exact words, but this is more spin. I know quite a lot about what's been going on at our club. And it's not great...

    Blair: Gaza's great betrayer

    It's more than a year since Israel launched its immoral attack on Gaza and Palestinians are still living on the verge of a humanitarian disaster. So what has Tony Blair done to further peace in the region? Virtually nothing, argues the historian Avi Shlaim Comments (98) Buzz up! Digg it Avi...

  8. Breaking News Shrimpers face yet ANOTHER tax dispute

    Southend United face yet ANOTHER winding up petition after reportedly withholding £200,000 from their November and December PAYE submissions to the taxman. In November, the Blues narrowly avoided going into administration following the payment of £2.1m owed to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs...

    Last nights TV tip - The Red Dahlia

    If you recorded this and haven't watched it do yourself a favour and delete it. Appalling rubbish and best avoided. The last time I take viewing advice from my mum.

    Are things THAT bad?

    We celebrated our manager's sixth year anniversary (with a win) last night. I know that it's been said many times but to not only have stability but to have a passionate, talented, local manager for so long is an incredible achievement for this football club. One that must never be...

  11. Yeovil Fan come in peace

    Hi Guys. I was born in Southend, but have spent much of my time in Yeovil (now abroad) and the majority of my family still live in Southend/Westcliff/Leigh on Sea etc and are SUFC season ticket holders. Yeovil fans are extremely supportive of you, because thats the way both sets of our fans...

    Administration is not the end of the world

    Administration isn't the worst case scenario. In fact administration, although unpleasant could even be a positive if we can restructure and pay off our debts. I'd take the 10 point deduction IF it meant getting our finances in order. I'd rather be relegated this year (not a certainty, even if...

  13. Companies Act 2006-Directors Responsibilities

    As more and more information seeps out about the Blues parlous financial condition, the thought had crossed my mind that some consideration should be given to the role of the SUFC Board in matters reaching the state they have. Until very recently, I was Chairman of a small transport company in...

    Slithering To The Brink

    The swelling band of English football clubs in crisis has a new member and it's my own team, Southend United. Late on Monday night, Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs (HRMC) cancelled a planned Winding Up Petition and elected to pursue an Administration instead. Put simply, the club were flicked...

    Liverpool V Manure

    Not a classic by any stretch of the imagination, but a good old fashion blood and guts derby game with plenty of passion, crap passing, missed opportunities and the obligatory 4 or 5 yellows and 2 reds. If Fergy thought that the refereeing fraternity were against him before today, then it will...

    Peter Clarke

    Seems like our ex defender was mixing it up with the Newcastle players in a friendly tonight. http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/Beye-melee-mars-Toon39s-Terriers.5480574.jp Interesting to see he was named Captain, I didnt realise he'd be getting the armband.
