    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Dave Smith

    This poll is really a week or so too early. The date of this poll should be 01 May, because that is the date for which Dave Smith will forever be associated with the club, for it was on 01 May 1981 that his side claimed the club's first major trophy* with a 1-1 draw against Rochdale. Dave...

    Right, I'm fed up over the negative comments that have crept back in this week. I thought they had disappeared over Christmas. In response to the "oh why haven't we signed more people" I can't be bothered to go over the arguments again. However I think we are all in agreement that Foran and...

    Have had the Reynolds Arena bought by the Sterling consortium meaning they are secure till the end of the season. However, George refuses to sell his share of the club to Sterling until they take back their bankruptcy demands. Could yet get messy.
