    Even I Can't Back The Gunners

    As anyone who recalls my contributions to 'The Bet Shop Boys' will know, I'm not much of a gambler. Instead of always betting on the likeliest outcome, I have a reckless and self-destructive habit of only making predictions that might make me seem really clever. Sometimes, like the time I backed...

    Proactive action to save Southend United F.C.

    Let me start off by saying that I'm not looking to excuse the situation that the club finds itself in in any way shape or form. Even in a best case scenario, with the club agreeing a payment plan with HMRC and being able to continue operating in relative normality, it's axiomatic that steps must...

    Player Sponsorship 2009/10

    All, for the last couple of years ShrimperZone has sponsored a Southend United player for the season. This has been achieved through contributions from posters on SZ effectively buying 'shares' in the sponsorship. One share would then get you in to a draw to win one of the following: An SUFC...

    Clement Attlee

    I'm going away for the weekend but my nomination for British hero is up for the first round this afternoon so here's why you should vote for him: Clement Attlee served as Winston Churchill's deputy in the War Coalition before winning the 1945 election and leading the most...

    Gerrard Is The Write Stuff

    Steven Gerrard is the Football Writer's Player of the Year. That's better. You see, if you want something done properly, ask a journalist. Admittedly, that saying only holds water if what you want is to have someone drink all the beer in your fridge, or spell something incorrectly, but for once...

    So, the bubble has burst as i am sure most but the fanatical on here realised it most likely would. This game showed up our woefull inadaquicies across the whole side and whilst the loanees, as well as probably clarke too, start pondering next season with thier respective sides it will be no...

  10. All At Sea - one more this season

    Hi all, In recent days co-ed Neddy Beavan and I have been locked in the boardroom at AAS Towers, occasionally discussing the fanzine between mouthfuls of custard cremes. As a result, contrary to the claim made in the current issue of AAS, we will be bringing out one more this season, likely to...

    Another reason to be upbeat

    As well as this afternoon's fantastic win at Peterborough for the first-team, Ricky Duncan's Under-18 side recorded a 2-0 win over Wycombe Wanderers to maintain their challenge for the Youth Alliance League South East Conference title. Craig Calver and Kyle Asante scored second half goals as...

    Football Must Refer To Cricket

    If you've been keeping an eye on the cricket recently then you'll have noticed some interesting experiments taking place in the West Indies. No, don't worry, England are still reassuringly hopeless, they'll never toy with that. It's the officials who are changing; test-piloting a new system of...

    Rafa's Not Keane On Robbie

    As a GBP20m striker, failing to make the starting line-up is disappointing. Being repeatedly substituted on the odd occasion that you do is even worse. But the nadir of Robbie Keane's short and unhappy time on Merseyside must surely be the indignity of being kicked off the bench in favour of...

  16. Question SUFC Hall of Fame

    Anyone up for opening in partnership both www based and possible actual memorabilia & Hall of Fame ? I would be interested in a co-operative type of arrangement amongst supporters who can each add their own contributions, on a non-profit basis.

    It's only going to get worse...

    ...well it MIGHT do since we have games coming up thick and fast, our team isn't functioning as a unit, we have no quality on the bench to shake things up and so many of our better quality loanees have returned to their clubs (even if in some cases this might not be for too long). We certainly...

  18. All At Sea fanzine

    Hello all, Reports of the death of All At Sea have been greatly exaggerated. We plan be back with the first issue of the 2008/09 season on Boxing Day for the game with Northampton Town. This all depends on contributions and people available to sell it of course. So we appeal to anyone who has...

    Question Occupational pension query

    If you receive a company pension, I know it's income-tax liable but does a pensioner pay NI contributions, especially if retirement is taken early? Sorry to be dull but I need to know.

    SZ needs you!

    All, a quick call to arms to the SZ faithful. The board is of course nothing without contributions from the users. We're very lucky to have stuff like the Slippery Column, Napster's interviews and DODTS's tales from his time supporting the club. However, there is always room for more. If you...
