    Question Who's on pen's ?

    Anyone know who is 1st in line for penalty taking duties ? I would imagine BBBC or Freddy would try to grab the ball but always worth knowing + being 1 step ahead of the bookies..... When Clohessey was on 'em for part of last year a few of us had him at 33-1 .... maybe Coker (33-1) or...

    Where are today's heroes?

    In the "good old days" we had the likes of Peter Butler, Paul Clark, Dave Martin, Super Roy, Andy Ansah, Ricki Otto, Spinner, Chris Powell etc etc. These players had different styles and skills BUT what they had in common was entertainment and commitment with a noticeable presence where/when it...

    Southend United's best ever 'targetman'

    What with BBBC signing on for another two years, I was wondering- who is the best 'targetman' striker you can remember in your time supporting the Shrimpers?

    Barry Corr and the power of the Zone

    BBBC has said that he turned down more money elsewhere to stay with Southend. He spoke to other clubs on his agents advice but revealed the main reason he stayed was because of his relationship with the fans. He wants to stay here and be remembered. (Echo) Bearing in mind it's really only...

    Team for 2013/14

    Without knowing any of the insider gossip and titbits we do have a nucleus of a squad for next season. Hopefully all injuries and operations will be sorted ready for the early early Coca cola Cup start With a few returnees my starting line up would be; GK; Bentley RB; Sean Clohessey RCB; Mark...

    Pre-Match Thread Bradford v Southend

    So he's finally here and Friday's trip to Bradford will be the man from Del Monte's first game in charge. Some of our posters will be more aware of Brown's style of play, preferred tactics and formations, so what team would you expect/like to see? Can anyone see recalls for BBBC, Smith or...

    Who starts up front tonight?

    Let's suppose that BBBC is available for for the Plymouth game along with Britt. Seeing that Eastwood scored on Saturday and Tomlin made a promising return in the second-half..........who does Luggy select up front on Tuesday night, against Plymouth. Given our even more desperate need for three...

    Sturrock's home failings.

    I think away from home PS's record must be up there with the best we have had had. But at home he clearly seems incapable of getting it right. For me the real issue at home is we are always so negative. I dont know yesterday how we even began to start with a 4-5-1 at home to a bottom few side...
  9. IloveShrimp

    Were were fortunate really!

    After the fantastic night that was Wednesday, I have to say that Luggy really got away with it imo. Both goals against us were down to two defenders who in my opinion at least one should not have been playing Barker and Phillips, also when Orient hit the bar it was down to Barkers defensive...
  10. Bary corr

    This morning I heard Barry corr say that B M should be kept at the club and given another chance .What more chances .Barry said that his challenge yesterday was rash and poorly timed .No kidding I think all the fans worked that out for themselves .Sadly BBBC doesn't know the man like we do .But...
  11. danburyshrimper

    as it stands:

    correct me if i'm wrong , but we will have no Spillane & no Laird for the Orient games ... so this will probably be the team : ..........................................SMITH.................................... CLOHESSEY..........PHILLIPS.................CRESSWELL.......BARKER...

    Record FA Cup goalscorer

    The legend that is BBBC notched his 6th FA Cup goal for the club tonight (and in just 5+2 FA Cup appearances). Where does this put him in the all-time FA Cup scorers list for SUFC? I expect Billy Best is top courtesy of the Kings Lynn and Brentwood Cup games with Gary Moore probably in second...

  14. Pre-Match Thread v BRISTOL ROVERS

    Three out of the next four league games away , so need to pick up a decent number of points otherwise we could lose touch completely. Sturrock says that Britt and Tam are available , but Prosser suspended and BBBC and Cresswell doubtful. As much as I would like Eastwood to start , If all the...

    Pre-Match Thread Rotherham

    My team for Saturday: Smith Clohessy - Cresswell - Barker - Straker Tomlin - Hurst - Timlin - Martin Assombalonga - Eastwood Subs: Bentley - Coughlan - Woodyard - Benyon - BBBC - Njie - Paxman I'm sure there's someone I'm missing out but can't think. Prosser likely to miss the game with groin...

    Team for Burton game?

    Smith and Phillips back?.....BBBC out....clearly. Freddie to remain as sub to ease him back to full match fitness. Smith Clohessy Phillips/Prosser Cresswell Barker Hurst Timlin Spicer Martin Assambalonga Benyon/Tomlin Subs...
  17. Pre-Match Thread

    Last week was a stressful one with embargo / injured players / new goalie etc and we managed to end it with a good win against a good side , and the added bonus of goals from Freddy and BBBC - top day ! This week , all good surely ?? No way , this is SUFC.............. Gary Lockett stands down...

    Plymouth Away

    Hi Sorry if this has already been done but i cant seem to find it? Just wondering views on starting 11 & also how many we may take ? i believe these kinds of games separate the fans & the hardcore fans as its a mission lol i have a sneaky feeling Fred will start with BBBC on the bench

    Corr back in training - PS wants new faces in - from the ECho

    BBBC making good progress, is back in training and resuming full contact work next week. PS to have a meeting with RM about 2 new midfielders on loan and subject to BBBC's continuing progress, maybe the front man we were in for before the deadline. We can register loan players anytime before...

    Strikers..

    A couple of weeks ago we were all very aware that a goalkeeper and CM player with bite..were required. We still need to bolster the midfield. There were few alarm bells around defensive or attacking options. On paper we look okay both at the back and upfront. However, there seems an issue about...
