  1. Forever A Shrimper

    Question Are contracts worth the paper they are written on?

    Southend United seems to be killing a lot of trees with there concept of contracts. Cancellations here, and no commitments there. Players come and go as they please, not as there contract says. So, I ask you. Other than things like a wage package yada yada yada, are contracts really worth it?

    Standing at the cross-roads - read this Ron Martin!

    I think the club is currently at a cross roads. We can either spend money and try and buy our way out of possible trouble with expensive short term solutions, or we can struggle on with what we've got, topped up by loan signings and the occasional more expensive signing when the right player...

    Subs

    Tonight we have only named 4 subs including 1 injured 1 being a keeper the other a winger and 2 strikers, so whats wrong with these following players: Dan Harvey, a defender that should be on tonights bench given the fact we have no defenders on the bench. Peggy Lokando, a full professional...

    Contracts Expiring

    ...Does anyone know how many of our players are out of contract in the Summer? I know that Peter Clarke and Richie Foran both are. Just wondering as I would'nt like to see Tilly and Ron leave it too late and lose any potential first teamers because they are nearing the end of their...

    Pre-Match Thread Ricey's Report. Oldham Athletic 22/11/08

    Return Of The Kev! Saturday the 22nd of November brings Oldham Athletic to Roots Hall and the first and most noticeable point of their visit is the 2 match touchline ban that has been handed to the Latics manager John Sheridan for improper conduct. The unfortunate news for us Shrimpers is that...

    Question Interactive Novel Writing

    Ok, bit of a weird one this. I have here the first 1,500 words of a story, battered out in an afternoon to no distinct end or conclusion. It's a first draft, it hasn't been polished or checked and, critically, it doesn't have a direction. I was thinking of a British version of Lost/Journey To...

    Announced today as per link http://www.ecb.co.uk/ecb/about-ecb/media-releases/stanford-super-series-squad,302377,EN.html Vaughan given a central contract, interesting to see if he can force his way back into the side especially when Pietersen wants 5 front line bowlers. Also can't believe they...

    Under 20's Team

    I'm a little surprised that this hasn't been given a mention. Although what with the contracts issue at the moment perhaps i'm being a little naive. On the OS http://www.southendunited.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10444~1326441,00.html Ricky Duncan et al are on the verge of an Under...
  14. Adam Barrett - Contract

    No, he hasn't gone anywhere. Does anyone else think that the rejection of these contracts has anything to do with Barrett's new deal? 4 and a half years so substantial security so very rare in the lower leagues, on what i gather to be a very good wage. I would argue that Barrett although an...

    Att: Ron Martin or club spokesman....

    I believe that us the fans deserve more answers and reasurance than just offered contracts and they said no so i stuck them in the tranfer market. We want to know if he the club believes the players will eventually sign or not. We want to know if we have received any offers for these players...

    SUFC Youth Team

    Having just read through the matchday programme from the game on saturday, I've just spoted in the Ricky Duncan interview about the youth team. Some interesting points in there and well worth a read if you haven't had a chance to as yet. Not sure if people knew this, but I certainly didn't: 1)...
  19. Who to play at this time of year?

    Tilly says on the website that he'd rather play mid-table teams at this time of year. Presumably the theory that they have nothing to play for. However, I'm not convinced. How many times have we seen sides who are more relaxed or playing without fear playing better. We've also seen what's...

    12 players out of contract at the end of the season

    Apologies if this has been on here before , but I only read the prospectus for the new shares issue this morning wherin it is stated that the contracts of 12 of the players are up at the end of the year . Anyone know who they are ? Could this explain the lack of motivation ??
