  1. Poss news on stadium this week..

    I'm not posting this on the main board or making any promises because I know there are many false dawns and this could end up being nothing. But I do have a contact who has very close ties with the club hierarchy, who has told me today that something important relating to the new stadium is...

  3. Tomorrow

    For me, Southend United has always been a tomorrow team. The success I have always wanted for them is forever another day away. Of course the length of the day has been of biblical proportions. However, and many will call me an optimist or a fool or both, but I think our tomorrow is about to...

  5. Question Southend the new Brighton?

    Odd title but here me out.... I have done alot of work with Brighton and Hove Albion and it has dawned on me that Southend find themselves very much in the same dangerous position that Brighton did back in 1997. At the time Brighton had a Chairman called Mr Bellotti (Ron with less lushious...

    PL Weekly Points Round 15

    I can only assume the high scores enjoyed in the week were a false dawn as it was back to below par this time around .. S2tc makes a rare appearance at the top table, along with The Big Shrimp who emerged from a poor trot of form to share the lead this week .. though being honest 7 isn't really...

    Question Do you support another side?

    It dawned on me on saturday the amount of people that come to Roots Hall but actually support other sides too. Not looking at any sort of with hunt as I fully understand people have family ties etc to 2nd sides. J Just curious as to what % of our support would say they have a 2nd side? If so...

    The worst day ive had since 1998

    Well i dont really know where to start. Yesterday was the worst day i have had since i got battered by thugs by liverpool street in 1998 and had a face like sloth (not much has changed ) and my arm was broken and resembled a piece of string. I was left wondering what was more painful...

  9. Memory Lane Pubey's trip down memory lane

    I don’t know why, I guess I’m just getting old, but yesterday I had a real sense of nostalgia. I spent the evening thumbing through our wedding album with Mrs Pubey, a regular pastime, and my eye was drawn to a family who have been ‘family friends’ all my life. They were...

    The Financial Situation Explained (Sort of!)

    Found this on a Grimsby forum HERE. Quite why it is on there I don't know, but details the mess we are in, quite well I feel. Ammendments in red. Feel free to suggest anything you feel is incorrect or needs adding. I will then edit this list, so it's all in one place. 1] Sainsburys...

  12. Thank you Steve, for the best 6 years of my Southend supporting life.

    My football club has changed, and I feel sort of empty today. For decades I supported Southend, and people would say "Who?" or "Southampton...?" or (most painfully) "Why???". And I dreamed of the day when I could casually mention my slightly strange affiliation, and people would nod, and look...

    Breaking News Today's Echo - Who owns the Blues? (2010 thread)

    Who own's the Blues.... It seems that Sainsbury's are not far off from owning the lot with the loans they have shelled out and the controlling interest they will have if debts are not repaid. The article is far to long (4 pages) to post it all here but the main points as I see it are. Rm's...

    Now i know how it feels to be barnet macclesfield or accrington supporter

    It finally dawned on me that with the fixtures coming out today this must be how the also rans must feel every year. We have with the present situation no chance of getting promoted and the best we can hope for at this moment in time is to just stay in the league. What a depressing thought...

    Question What Makes You Proud To Be English?

    Nice and simple this one. What makes you proud to be English. Is it music? Literature? Ant and Dec? For me, it's our long and glorious history of dissent. Since the dawn of time, we've had the courage to stick it to The Man. All the way back to Chaucer and beyond, we've refused to take any ****...

    ¡que lastima!

    There's something very wrong with this football club. I've followed SUFC for more than 30 years and, aside from Anton Johnson's brief suicidal tenure during the first half of the 1980s, I cannot think of a worse position that Southend United finds itself at the moment. Ron Martin might spin a...
