  1. excuses

    flavs was exposed and we played all out attack it seemed. bad tactics,should have played defensive and counter attacked.Walker is not sharp and barnard marked out of the game.Trouble is when we concede our heads go down and give away free kicks.Well done to tilson for getting us this far but to...

    The battle for survival

    The only excitement that comes close to the battle for the Premier League is the fight to merely stay in it for another season. The financial rewards of the top flight are now so vast that relegation is no longer an occupational hazard that can be thrown off with one straight-forward recovery...

    Reserve League Play-Off Final

    Liverpool's senior side may not picked up any silverware this year, but on Wednesday night at Anfield, Gary Ablett's reserve team were on hand to show them how it's done. Having won their regional divisional with room to spare, the youngsters were sent out to face Aston Villa's second string for...

    Numbers in song titles

    Ok, a little game for a Monday morning. Try to think of song titles that have numbers in them, but we have to do it in sequence. So, I'll kick things off, although I concede it's not strictly speaking a number: Smashing Pumkpins - Zero Next up, a song with 1 in the title, then 2, then 3 and...

    Showaddywaddy Crew Crewe trip report!!!

    Crewe vs SUFC - 6 HOURS TO CREWE Apologies for the lateness of this report, unfortunately my laptop decided to pack up at the most inconvenient time possible. There may be bits missed out because I have forgotten some details but here’s the report anyway as per usual (albeit a little late) of...

    Semi-match report

    I thought I may as well put my thoughts on the game up as I've barely been on since the game. As I mentioned before this match, the form of the home team compared with that of the away team and the relative league standings pointed only one way: Away win. Sure enough, the form book wasn't...

    Official SZ Match Report - Huddersfield Town

    I think Matt & James are otherwise detained today, so I am just going to post my report as a thread on here (instead of it being uploaded to the main page - for the time being!)

    One for the statos here... When have we EVER used quite so many players in a season, and at that one that is not yet over?I cannot remember it in my near 40 years of support.I stand to be corrected but make it 32 pros. who have been in a squad, with all but one, Johnny Herd, playing a part in a...

    The fbm report - Millwall

    Folks, As I'm not quite sure what time I'll get back tonight in order to post this on the front page, it is not fair to deny fbm his readership - or to deny you his pearls of wisdom - so here is the fbm report for the Millwall game, which will hopefully go up on the front page tonight. * * * *...

    Boo Boys

    Great turnaround from the team today... and another vital 3 points!!! The worst thing that can happen these days is to concede an early goal at Roots Hall... all of the sudden the boo boys at the back of whats supposed to be the blue voice were out. "Wheres Eastwoods money gone?!" "Tilson Out"...
  13. 4th best 4th worst

    With 44 goals for 4th best and with 42 against for 4th worst. With 18 games left if we concede a goal a game and that will be an improvement, we will still have let in 62 goals. Dont no the stats for clubs going up from division 1 but I dont think they concede that many.
  14. SUFC - The entertainers?

    After watching my beloved Southend score 7 and concede 5 in the last week, I thought that I would see if we are anywhere near the top of the "entertainment table". That is, the team whom, if you saw every game, you would see the most goals per game ratio. We are indeed close to the top of that...

    Comment Billy Jones CREWE'S players are determined to put their nightmare behind them with victory at Southend. After bombing in a dire 4-1 home defeat against Bournemouth, Alex face a tough trip to put it right at a compact Roots Hall on Saturday. Left-back Billy Jones says the lads are...

    The fbm view and ratings - Tranmere

    TRANMERE GO TOP AS SOUTHEND SLIP TO SEVENTH Southend's unbeaten 5 match run came to an end this afternoon as the visitors from the Wirral deservedly ran out winners at The Hall. Sometimes, Southend play well and sometimes they don't. However, on some occasions, credit must be given to the...

    TROLLOPE WILL SHAKE THEM UP BY CHRIS SWIFT Paul Trollope has pledged a Bristol Rovers' shake-up for tonight's clash with Southend in a bid to end the wait for a first home win of the campaign. The first-team coach has seen his side concede six goals in their last two outings at the Memorial...

  19. Tilly Last night

    We all know that Tilly aint one to scream and shout, but the shouting he did do last night was around the 83rd minute. He came to the touchline and shouted to Barrett, 'dont get sloppy'. That was it!! And the rest is history. Until the boys take this on board (Mr Clark) we will concede...
