    Ryan Hall

    So should he start next Saturday against Morecambe or should PS keep the winning team as it is. He is, as his recent goals and assists show (when he does come on) without doubt the catalyst of our team and the player with most flare and imagination,but who would you drop if indeed you would...

    The demise of The Guardian International

    Yes it's true.I read in my print copy of The Guardian International today(while having a beer and later a G and T) outside and over the road from the Bikini before the first concert in Barcelona's International Jazz Festival that the last print copy of The Guardian International will be this...

    Praise indeed!! 1

    A millers poster on their forum, put this up.................................. Beaten by a better team.. Now, dont get me wrong, i'm not shy in saying we were poor. Or slating players like Newey & Tonge(who once again were ****e, same as at Torquay & Accrington), but today we were beaten by a...

    Breaking News Marlon Agyakwa

    So he seemed to impress in the ressies game yesterday, out on the right wing. So much so that he has been invited to step up from the youths, to train with the first team. - Echo He is only 16 so not sure if he is eligible for the firsts? But, a wee birdie tells me he is a much more exciting...
  5. the problem as I see it

    Like most passionate fans supporting their own team, we tend to be blinkered, into our players/managers ability. Whilst many on here might think such and such is "class" etc etc, the reality is that most of southends players , are really players plying their trade in the lower leagues or worse...

    Braintree - pubs

    A good mate of mine is a London based Lincoln fan so I'm going with him to the Braintree vs Lincoln game on Saturday evening. I've never been to Braintree before, so any pub recommendations? Or, indeed, places to avoid?

    German Translation Service

    Does anyone know of a reputable translation service that doesn't cost too much? (or indeed can any zoners translate German?) and is also pretty quick. My Dad lived in Germany and passed away last year, been waiting on the probate system to work through, but yesterday I received an important...
  9. AGM minutes

    Uncle Albert, boots shining like a cyclists tail light,strode into the foyer of the Palace Hotel. As he did so a smartly dressed youngman hesitantly came forward to greet him. His job was to welcome all the Bluesshareholders as they arrived for the clubs AGM and he’d obviously beenforewarned not...
  10. Rafael Benitez In Tears At The 22nd Hillsborough Anniversary

    Top flight football and indeed the game in general is so much about money today so although sad it gives hope there are still some that really care about the teams and fans they have worked for a fact that Rafa showed on his departure from his job by giving a three figure sum from his pay off to...

    The true meaning of happiness..

    Well, it's been a very long time indeed. Not long enough unfortunately, and to my amazement, my SZ account is still active. Thanks Mods. You could have done me a favour and binned it!! So, I have found something, no. I have found many things in life, that happen on a Saturday afternoon...
  12. so this is where we are

    without so much as a whimper or discord, martins plans have come to frution a ****** 14,000 seater stadium in the middle of knowhere, with no income for southend utd, rather the other way round as clearly he is going to rent it to us(or rather one of his many insolvent companies may) when the...
  13. Liverpool away

    Looking forward to seeing the youths at Anfield tomorrow night and only £4 to get in!!! Result. Leaving at 9am and cant wait in what should be a cracking day. Sitting in THE KOP singing southend songs will be unreal. Liverpool youth team are averaging 3 goals a game this season so could be...

    Question Steve Tilson/Jamie Clapham

    I notice that Jamie Clapham scored for Lincoln in their 4-3 defeat at the weekend. Was Jamie at Lincoln before Tilly became manager or did he sign Clapham? If he did indeed sign Clapham, that makes interesting reading as Tilly wasn't interested in Clapham last season when on trial at Roots Hall?
  15. Sturrock - complete idiot ?

    Great comment from Sturrock after Saturdays game - "My players don't deserve their wages". Either he has been on another planet the last few months, is totally insensitive to the previous players and what we as fans have had to put up with or he is just a complete idiot. Last point - please Mr...
  16. OS Aldershot goal pic - looks a clear foul to me......

    Assuming the pic on the OS gallery is from the goal (I couldn't go yesterday and also missed the Football League Show last night) I think we should indeed feel very hard done by again as from the pic it looks clear that Morris definitely has the ball in both hands when Spencer challenges him. :'(

    Guardian/Brentford/Chomp

    from the Guardian's knowledge section today - I never heard of this - anyone? Bueller? "Less widely broadcast was the banning of confectionery at a number of lower-league grounds in the 1990s when Brentford were the visiting team," adds Mike Deller. "Indeed, at one match (a promotion deciding...

    Breaking News Reply from Justin King

    Dear Mr Lewis Thank you for your recent email concerning the future of Southend United FC. I do understand how important the Club is to the town and I appreciate that the current uncertainty surrounding the Club is not satisfactory to the supporters. However, despite what you may have heard...
