    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...

    Hi all after a couple of years just reading the zone i thought id take the plunge. Been following the blues since the late 60s in the days of the mighty Billy Best who is still my favourite ever player and have seen it all in that time. Can honestly say ive made some great mates in that time and...

  7. Memory Lane Help me put together a Classic Southend team for FIFA 11

    Pretty self-explanatory I reckon... I'm using EA's Creation Centre to put together a Classic Southend squad to be downloaded from their website and was hoping to get some help from the good people of Shrimperzone. I think I'm allowed 27 players but I've got 35 on my initial shortlist and am sure...

    Memory Lane Billy Best v Gary Moore

    Best and Moore. Not George and Bobby, but the true greats of Billy and Gary, who formed probably the most famous partnership in Southend history. But which one makes it through to the next round?

    Southend 'tache XI

    The beard XI (mascot Mark Beard) need a team to play. Obviously Billy Best had a goalscoring record nearly as legendary as his 'tache, but otherwise I think the pickings may be thin as it seems to be more quantity over quality. Excluding the late Jimmy Walker's pathetic effort, was Donut the...

  19. Rons Blog 07.04.09

    Firstly let me apologise for last week’s “void”. It was my intention to answer the questions raised over a period of two to three weeks and at the end of that period to review whether supporters generally thought it was a good idea to continue with a blog – be it weekly, fortnightly or not at...
