    Southend's Biggest Judas

    Many of the more educated people on this board will tell you there is no such thing as a "Judas" in football. After all its a short career and they have got to make as much as they can in a short space of time. I however am far more childish than that and I expect all the players to love the...
  2. Derby away

    This is the one to win , Why ? * Never forgotten the way their "fans " attacked innoncent kids at Roots Hall last match of the season all those years ago * Chasing Freddy , claiming he would sign for a " Big Club " ( like them LOL ) * And we really need a win to get season...
  3. To all Shrimperzone readers

    As an avid reader and occasional poster on Shrimperzone I feel must apologise. In common with many other fans comments, my comments such as "I can't believe we've managed to sign Peter Clarke, this is a real coup" and "Prior is f***ing useless and must be dropped for Clarke immediately" and...

    West Ham fans

    From Football Unlimited: Roeder reveals tumour taunts - former Hammers manager asked by fans: 'Why didn't you die three years ago?' Potential investors be warned, involvement in West Ham is not for the faint-hearted. Former Hammers boss Glenn Roeder has revealed the extent of the...
  5. Bias in the leagues now !

    This is starting to bug me lately as i have seen it alot at the moment for instance Bolton v Charlton the other day Heridason and Davies were both sent off for similar incidents i personally agree that they both warrented it but how could Sam Allardyce say Davies' elbow was unintentional...

    More Eastwood Transfer Rumours!

    Just been googling for any transfer rumours connected to SUFC and in particular Freddy. Well could he make the same step as super Stan The Man Collymore did? Just look at this link on a Liverpool unofficial forum. Someone claiming to work with Freddy's sister?  Surely this guy would be sworn...

    Who remembers that mad steward?

    He was quite tall with glasses and used to patrol the east stand. He used to shout all kinds of nonsense outside the ground! Once i remember him shouting at a tv outside currys or radio rentals in southend high street, swearing like a trooper claiming he had £500 on us getting a goaless draw...

    Chelmsford City

    Jamie Lunan Daniel Lunan Craig Edwards Tony Boot ( trialist ) Michael Haswell * Jerrome Sobers * Richard Halle * * who the feck are these people? Judging from their ages on the CCFC Official Site I can only guess at them being Youth at some time. Unless CCFC are trying to 'raise their...
  9. Bit bored with transfer speculation

    Maybe we can all highlight our best or funniest moment from 2005-2006, hopefully it could make more interesting reading than a thread claiming a mate of my cousins uncle who lives in Darlington says we are going to sign so and so.

    The fbm views and ratings

    Due to formatting problems the report isn't yet on the front page so here it is BLUES LAND TITLE IN ESSEX ONE-TWO The two Essex sides defied all the odds in League One by claiming both automatic promotion spots – with the Super Shrimpers deservedly landing the title. In fact, it was...
  11. How others see us now...

    At the start of the season, a certain Northern manager was claiming "we should be beating the likes of Southend". Now, unless I am mistaken, we have been ceded the title by Swansea. I can see no reason why they would let us have Mcleod unless they no longer felt they could catch us at...
  12. Lets lay this issue to rest

    I have already voiced my opinion that i believe both Ricketts and Southend supporters are to blame but to try to get boyfrombrazil closed down...a loyal website to the community which has existed for years goes a bit too far. Goes a bit too far like the Southend supporters who have labelled us...
  13. The ref

    Quite possibly the most inept refereeing display I've ever seen at a Southend game (and that really is saying something). Booked Lawson for diving when clear contact could be 'heard' let alone seen. Failed to give a free kick when Gutteridge had both legs chopped from beneath him...

    A Complaint

    What I am about to say is strictly off the record. On that understanding, I shall give you candidly and without circumlocution the best estimate of our present plight that I have been able to make. Before I start, however, I should state that to understand what Southend United's particularly...

    Essex v. Hampshire

    Hampshire (0 points) 175/9 (Phillips 3/31, G. Flower 2/24) lost to Essex (4 points) 69/2 (Jefferson 44*) (D/L) Well, thanks to Messrs. Duckworth and Lewis, the Essex Eagles have got their first National League 1 victory under their belts, largely achieved by a cracking 44 not out from Big Will...

    Worst Team to ever visit Roots Hall (98-05)

    Going on from comments from Matt the shrimp about the worst side to visit roots hall lets hear everyones opinions. I've seen some von crappe down here during my time but on Friday 17th December 2004 a team claiming to be a bunch of footballers representing the town of Chester turned up at...
  17. Nearly Two Points Dropped

    Failure to convert chances nearly cost us in this play-off challenging game, with the Shrimpers having about 5 real-good opportunities with which to take the lead. Early on it could be seen that Darlo were going to play hoof ball all game, but instead away for the podgy Wingehard as opposed to...
  18. Persistent Standing

    Reading through the Shrimpers' Trust liaison meeting notes, I have come to the conclusion that Geoffrey King somewhat misses the point about persistent standing in the North Stand. Despite the Trust representative informing him that "our experience at away matches was that stewards...
  19. Alderton v Clarke

    With the tension mounting in the build up to Saturday's big game, publicity is now reaching fever pitch and the bookies have closed all betting on who will be in between the sticks for us, against the Swans. By all accounts Tilson is keeping his options open on who will start, but the early...

    Stan feeling dog rough...

    Stan Collymore has sensationally quit The Farm after a four-letter tirade against Vanilla Ice. The former England striker shocked the fellow contestants when he dramatically walked out on the five reality show - claiming "I've had enough!"Farm vet Jon Huxley pleaded with him to...
