    teams of your era!

    This has proberly been done before however i havent seen it for a while. Since you have been supporting the blues what has been your favourite and worst players. With myself being a 2nd generation shrimper i have seen many good players and many bad ones. However my old man always seems to...
  2. ''Don't worry be happy''

    No significant moves in the transfer market. Again! Be happy. The OS fails to keep the paying supporter updated with moves or lack of moves. Again! Be happy. We are aspiring to consolidation and fearing relegation. Again! Be happy. We await a string of excuses to be trotted out by the club as to...
  3. Casting minds back to august

    I remember coming on here after speaking to someone who works for the club who posts on this forum. They told me that virtually no money would be spent this season, it would be consolidation this season, then money will be spent before next season to bring the squad capable of challenging for...

    The Fall of Roman's Empire?

    The rumours that Roman Abramovich is attempting to sell Chelsea may have been quickly denied by the club, but when you stack up the numbers, it's all too plausible. Stamford Bridge has been a black hole for the Russian oligarch's cash and, in a year when he's lost so much money elsewhere, it...

    Tilly on BBC Essex this morning

    Surprised that nobody has mentioned this yet, but Tilly on BBC Essex this morning saying that the loan market hasn't been ideal this year, and that the top 6 is possibly too far to reach this season. A season of consolidation in league one. Reading between the lines this was Tilly saying that...

    Average age of next season's team - and realistic expectations

    I have a feeling that we will be going into next year with a very young squad and Tilly will be gradually blooding a number of Ricky Duncan's excellent youth's into the first team . Johnny Herd , Peggy Lokando , James Lindie and Rhys Henry are just 4 out of probably 8 or 9 who deserve to get...

    Promotion???

    I must be living in a different world to everyone else, because I really don't understand why everyone seems to desperate for us to get promoted back to the Championship this season, when we are clearly not equipped to cope in that division. In fact it is clear to me that we are at the moment...

    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...

    CS J's Round up of events at Layer Road..

    Good day Ladels and Gentlespoons, i have returned from a swift pint in the spread eagle, to chew over the day.. and the goings on and happenings of the day... the story begins, at 11:28 as smiffy gives me a text, "Im outside".. i run down the stairs, and answer the door.. I said...

    Promotion

    I know he is hardly going to beg for relegation, but does anyone else feel that Tilly has developed and learnt again as a manager? Remember last year when all he would talk about was 50 points and surviving etc, even when we were in the play-off positions? This year, all the vibes coming from...
  11. 24 Hours, 5 Minutes...

    Until the season ends, and what a season its been. After that day in Cardiff, Anybody offering 20th Place in League One next season to a Shrimper would've had their arm snatched off.. After all, the general consensus was that, earning promotion through The Play-Offs and not automatically, we...
  12. Over confidence?

    I am becoming a little concerned at the over confidence coming from the Hall at present. I think we need to keep our feet on the ground and we cannot afford to take anything for granted. Chants of "Champions League in Three Years Time" are to me a little worrying. We have to be...

    Minor blip...

    What's going wrong with Sarfend then? Minor blip? More concerned with consolidation? Or just maybe not quite good enough to make it up this year?
  14. Spoke to an SUFC legend last night...

    After the Billericay game I went to Billericay station and who did I see on the other side of the platform all alone, but Mel Capleton. He got sent off that evening after 10minutes and I asked him if he deserved to get sent off, he said that the ball came up and hit his arms and he couldn’t get...
