    Question How thorough are our medicals?

    Just a question as I'm hoping that they are very thorough indeed as it would be easy in our current situation to overlook problems in order to increase our playing strength!! Akinfenwa has broken a leg and failed a medical before, Mark Phillips has a bad injury record at Brentford. Bees fan told...
  2. 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...

    Roots Hall Title Deed inc. Covenant

    [Perhaps a mod could pin this] I have previously posted a copy of the Roots Hall Title Deed which includes the covenant which everybody keeps asking about. So, here is a copy of the Title Deed which includes the Covenant again. Regards and Up the Shrimpers! North Wales Shrimper
  4. Q and a summary-- another broken promise

    Most of you will remember that Mr Martin said he would post a summary of the Q and A session held back in March on the OS,as a final part of his trilogy of blogs on the state of our football club. This Q and A summary has not been forthcoming and I suspect that there is more chance of France...

    The Budget - It Didn't Take Them Long, Did It?

    So VAT is up to 20%. Which is very much at odds with what they said here on 9 August 2009 on the Andrew Marr Show: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8192095.stm ("The Tories have "absolutely no plans" to increase VAT to 20% if they win the next general election, shadow health secretary Andrew...
  7. Soccer AM/MW thoughts on Tilly

    Tuesday, 27 April 2010 What goes up must come down After their relegation to League Two was confirmed at the weekend, Nobes analyses the future for Southend United. Southend fans are facing up to the prospect of League Two next season There's a thought that football, like life...
  8. Ref Watch .... Brentford

    Tonight's match sees the return to Roots Hall of the loose cannon that is Trevor Kettle. Or, rather, Squadron Leader Tervor Kettle based at RAF Cottesmore at Oakham in Rutland. This is his 7th season as a League referee and his matches have been littered with controversy and condemnation...
  9. I hope we go down

    Just as any other Blues supporter, the thought of staying up still lingers, but if my reading of the situation is anywhere near right then I feel it will be for the best if we go down. Lg 2 is not as strong and with the current financial upheavals we could probably better afford a possibly...
  10. Xavi Takes Centre Stage in Football Spectacle

    When two teams of the highest calibre collide, it wouldn’t be beyond the realms of possibility that they negate each other and the feature becomes something of an anti-climax. Not when Arsene Wenger and Pep Guardiola are around. No. This was special. Barcelona flew out of the traps as if to...

    A Pig 36 Hours

    We all get them, we all have those days when you wish you could turn back the clock and stay in bed but where would be the fun in that. I knew it was coming because I had prior warning that there was no cover for sunday night and I had already been asked to help out. Not a major problem, I...

    The 60k loan

    <Introduction - Good News Anyone ? A colleague of mine is helping a friend collate some information on our club&#8217;s season and asked me for input - I had to look at his request 3 times before I could think of anything positive. Our football club&#8217;s chairman of course is always positive...
  13. How has the recession hit you, as a football fan?

    Hello – I am currently in the process of researching and authoring a study on how the recession has hit football. The general consensus of ‘experts’ in 2007 was that football was “recession-proof”. I think the past three years have probably indicated that this was not (and is not) entirely...

    Ronnie Whelan to replace Rafa at Liverpool.

    Listening to the podcast of Spoony's 606 this morning, a 'Pool fan phoned and said it is time for Rafa to go. He called on the club to appoint 'somebody from within... an ex-player or something.' The obvious name the caller first suggested was Dalglish. When Marcotti said that there's probably...

    Stockport

    Bad news potentially... Stockport could be thrown out of the league if they don't find a buyer within 6 weeks. They went into administration on 30/4/09 and the rules are that they must come out of it within 12 months. If they don't they will be wound up and their golden share witheld, which...

    2010 season

    Ah, spring training. The sound of rubber or cork wrapped in yarn and covered with leather thumping into leather mitts or the rifle crack of corked ash. Ahhh. There is something magical about the phrase "pitchers and catchers report". It sounds so innocent but at the same time so alluring. I'm...
  17. Interesting times - changes ?

    Tilson is trying put together a scratch team to save SUFC from the drop and its all a bit of a mess .... but at least he now has a few options - For me both Scannell and MacCormack have to be dropped - Scannel cos apart from when hes got the ball at his feet is a complete passenger - unable...

    Ian Tilson & The Coca Cola Football League Podcast

    I downloaded the latest edition of the above titled podcast and, in the description line on iTunes it mentioned several names of this week's featured guests. One was a certain 'Ian Tilson'. I wondered... could this be OUR 'Tilson'? Could the media get SUFC matters wrong so often? Especially on...

    A Bridge Too Far ?

    I didn't actually see the draw for the FA Cup Quarter-Finals being made and wonder if anyone made reference to the prospect of Wayne Bridge's return to 'the Bridge' to face his erstwhile best mate John Terry. Football is indeed 'a capricious misstress,' as Barrie Williams once said ... :)
