  1. Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset

    United With Fellow Shrimps At Wembley?

    The cold reality of relegation settled in yet after the 'love in' at St Mary's on Sunday? Need a 'boost' as a finale to a long hard footie season, one to enjoy with no pressure in the game's new ultimate centre piece? And to ease you in to the footie desert of summer? Well, what about helping...

  2. Just got back

    Living in Tiverton it was the game I've been looking forward to, only an hour away. Got off to the worst start - Clarkey very guilty of not clearing his lines and we gifted them a goal. For the next half an hour we were more than competitive and thoroughly deserved the equaliser and glad that...

    England v Sri Lanka

    Big, big game this one. The news is that we've won the toss and will field. As I believe the only way we can beat the top teams is to bowl first and take early wickets, this is a real plus. Sri Lanka are still favourites, but if England can strike early we could yet be competitive.

  4. Royce

    Hopefully he'll get a good reception tomorrow, my favourite all-time Blues keeper. The 3rd save in this video was one we used to see frequently (especially his PotY season) - he must have something against Derby though as does anyone remember the miraculous save quite similar to the one in the...

  5. Thugs Ruined Our Day

    I know there have been threads re; the abuse from Spurs fans on Saturday, but our day was ruined by thugs in our ranks. I should be able to take my son to away matches without exposing him to aggressive and abusive behaviour. If anyone reading this was involved in such behaviour, then shame on...

    Pre-Christmas bargains vs New Year Sales

    I'm sure I know the answer to this but... I need a new laptop and am debating whether or not to order today (since there are some pretty good deals around) or wait until the New Year Sales. Are shops getting as competitive as they can be prior to Christmas or are Sales still the big thing?

  7. Best player to visit the Hall this seasom?

    Bale for me was by far the best player i've seen visit us this year. The amount of acceleration he has to go with a sweet left foot is unreal for a 17 year old. Sadly I think it will only be a matter of months before he heads off the a Champions League side. It's a shame, players like...

    How do we build for the future?

    We know we're a relatively small(ish) club thats over-achieved in the last few years due to hard work, but how do we go about making the transition from this reality to a club mounting a year-on-year competitive challenge? I know the new stadium will eventually bring in a lot more revenue...

    It's a funny old game

    I've been following the recent doom and gloom posts and can't help thinking (through my rose tinted glasses   ) that I can't actually recall better times than these in the 30 plus years that I've been supporting SUFC. I've seen some miserable days at Roots Hall, believe you me, but the last...

    Ipswich preview

    Southend have now gone over two months without a league win, but with Ipswich Town next on the fixture list, the Shrimpers have a great chance of ending their dismal run. After a good streak of four wins in five games, Ipswich have lost their last three, conceding nine goals in the process. Of...

    is it because we always beat you in competitive fixtures ?

  13. Why have things gone wrong?

    1. Missing Sodje and Prior With one of these two in we clean up everything in the air. They are strong, experienced defenders who organise our defence and make us a much more physical side. They protect a vulnerable Flahavan. The statistics pretty much say it all. Sodje played 11 games (plus...

  14. Walkovers

    If I PIC against a team who doesn't put a team out do I still get the Team Spirit boost? Presumabely I still get trained too? I play the team bottom of the league two weeks running and they haven't put a team out yet. So I won't have a competitive game for 2 weeks!

    FRUCKING YES !

    Westcliff Reliance 1 ShrimperZone FC 2 Cup match against a team one division higher and we finally get our first competitive win under our belts. Fully deserved and we should have probably won by more. Got to go to the airport now so I can't even celebrate with the team or watch the win...
  16. Colchester and proud!

    Good morning Southend!

    Hello guys looking forward to the game today, the sun is shining and we will be bringing a fair few fans to the Hall so the atmosphere should be great. I cant believe it is 15 years since we last met in the league when you won 2-0 at Layer Road. We are playing pretty poorly at present but on the...

  19. New players

    I believe Tilly has been quoted as saying he is not going to rush into buying any new players and that there is no pressure upon him to do so. Are we that well covered? Supposing a key player gets an injury during preseason or first game of the league do we then rush out or play second best. I...

    Home Grown Players
