    Legalising Prostitution

    After more bodies keep being found, and the usual debate evolves on here about capital punishment (sorry but *yawn*), I thought I would take it in another direction... George Bernard Shaw was once quoted as saying that the original Jack the Ripper did what scores of socialists had failed to...
  2. When did you really think..

    Although I predicted we'd keep a clean sheet to my future father-in-law as I walked away from the Hull game it was only on the basis that weird things like that happen in football. I never seriously believed beating Manchester United was a possibility...until the 75th minute of the match...

    Cheggers plays

    Only the one pop for me... but what a luvverly one: my main striker popping from supernatural to titanic. Happy days. Even if the rest of my side isn't great, you've got to love this forward line: Rozmin bin Mohd Fuad TSI = 56 430 , 23 years, passable form Speciality: Quick...

    My 2 cents

    Firstly, the stadium plans.  Well done RM, and in my opinion the plans look absolutely superb.  There is no way anyone can say that it looks crap - it may not look how they might want a ground to look, but it will be clean, futuristic, spacious and worthy of Championship football.  It may be...

    Derby preview

    We've still got a few issues with updating the front page, so the preview for this Saturday's game is being posted here instead. Cheers, James/Uxbridge Shrimper Derby dangerman – Steve Howard It’s been a tough few weeks for Southend United. Winless in the Championship since August 19th...

    The Where are you now topic

    got the idea from the flames from the past the ones that got away... just an idea to put down names of people where are they now... to see if any fellow shrimperzoners know the where abouts... feel free to put some information down... joanne cardy - 20yrs old went kingswood junior school and...
  7. Rio Ferdinand

    Just seen that video of Rio giving it the Bertie Big Bollox about Tilly challenging him to a game of table tennis - do you reckon Tilly's seen that video cos I would imagine if he did it would make him even more determined to give that cocky little bar steward a good hiding

    SUFC Cenetenary Roll of Honour

    Well, the Centenary Roll of Honour vote continues - in an extremely hard fought contest for the 1956-66 berth in the Roll of Honour, Sandy Anderson pipped Roy Hollis and Sammy McCrory to the post with 36% of the vote. Next up, it's 1966-76, which I suspect will be even more hard-fought...

    Famous East Londoners

    I've been invited to a party where the theme for dressing up is apparently East Enders (not necessarily off of the programme). I don't know why they are insisting on fancy dress but it could be quite funny. Whilst this initially seems to give quite a wide berth, I'm actually...

    Parkin

    Ron has said that he is p%&sed off with Bernie Friend for his story about us wanting to sign Parkin. He isnt the sort of player we want at RH Source: Official Site
  11. Tilly for left back

    Seeing as we don't seem to have signed anyone yet I reckon Tilly should step into the left back berth for Che on Saturday. I reckon he could still do a job us and would love to see him back in a Southend shirt. Any thoughts?
  12. For whom the bell 'chimes'.

    I am more concerned about the January transfer window now that Redknapp has returned to Pompey. I could see this a tempting prospect for Mr. Eastwood, a chance to play in the Premier$hite and an opportunity to remake the acquaintance of Todorov. With Southends loss of form, a move to a...

    Give us a song

    New to the Shrimperzone so thought I would pick up on the thread relating to creating an atmosphere. Dicussions were around knocking down walls but I reckon there is a simple way of creating a great atmosphere. Lets get create 2 or 3 easy to learn catchy songs that can be sung around the...
  14. Team For Saturday

    Well, the fringe players had their chance to shine on Tuesday night and none of them really took it. So who starts saturday? People have been crying out for Freddy to start but will Tilly listen? How about the right wing? Bentley has satrted there the last couple of games but did JCR or Gower...

    Strange SUFC badge

    I've just found this club badge on the internet: and wondered if anyone knows why there is a lion instead of a shrimp? Or at least I think it's meant to be a lion!

    No joke

    Have a look at this. Someone surely knew what they were doing when they named this Stadium! The new Young Boys Berne Stadium is named.............

    Suggested tactics

    This Sunday I'm up against a reasonably tough opponent that plays 4-4-2 pressing and last week gained a creditable 0-0 draw with a very strong team despite only 25% possession in the first half and 10% in the second. I'm normally 5-4-1 pressing. I'm curious as to whether 5-4-1 AIM...

    This is from today's Guardian........great line "Melancholy is second nature to them" Southend enjoy rare optimism Southend are hoping this year could be third time lucky. After two defeats at the Millennium Stadium in a little over 14 months, in the past two LDV Vans Trophy...

    Players released

    It's always a very interesting time of year with players being let go. I've made it my duty to keep us up to date with some of the more interesting now free agents. Orient: They've released Tom Youngs, Mark Peters and Lee Harrison. I'm quite surprised the've let Harrison...

    Midfield Goals Tally

    Now, firstly I think that both Kev Maher and Carl Pettefer have had outstanding seasons, and we would not have finished as high in the table as 4th without their considerable contributions. Now, the but! Between them they have played 88 league games between them this season, and have...
