destroyed

  1. Ron Martin from Badger 74

    Mr. Martin, The sooner you leave our club the better. I honestly believe you have destroyed our club and that we will be playing non league next season. The ground will not be built and SUFC will go under in your control. Please leave now before its to late. I cannot believe we still have fans...
  2. Let's all try to calm down

    OK, that was absolutely awful. But the supporters making the most noise now are the same ones praising the team to the skies after the Bristol City game. I said in a much earlier post that the way this squad has been assembled with a host of journeymen lower league players who weren't wanted...
  3. Time for SUFC fans to revolt against the owners!

    I have been on holiday for last 2 weeks so only just catching up with everything that has been happening with in detail so apologies if i am repeating what others have said. I am so unhappy with how the club has been run and see no way forward with Ron Martin in control. He has proved he is not...
  4. AFC Southend-Its now a possibility

    Mentioned we could end up having to reform the club on a while a go here but was shouted down and told it would never come to that but now its becoming a real possbility. If Ron continues to drive the club into the ground I can't see another outcome. If in a years time we find ourselves in the...

    Fourth? Pah!

    Has there ever been a tag-line as profoundly underwhelming as the ‘Battle For Fourth’? Even for the English, who celebrate mediocrity with such enthusiasm that Tim Lovejoy has been encouraged to forge a career in broadcasting, this is a new low. Fourth? It’s not even a place on the podium. It’s...

    Terrorist Warning Level

    The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent terrorist threats and have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross", The English have not bee "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when...

    Sick and Tired of this ****..

    As the title says, i am seriously sick and tiired of everything that goes with SUFC.. walk away? Easy.. or not? Southend United is my ****ing club, and no one can ever take that away, even 5 foot blonde middle aged men who try. Today has seriously ****ed me off, from he fact i have to top up...
  8. South Park vs Ginger People

    As everybody knows, ginger people have no souls. Apparently ginger people are getting annoyed at the creators of South Park for pointing this out and one ginger person in particular is taking it very badly. And in typical South Park style, rather than hiding away from the criticism they've...
  9. Only one man to blame.......

    I'm not even worried about relegation now, as far as I'm concerned we're down and I don't blame Tilson or the players one bit. How the hell can we expect the playing and coaching staff to be motivated when we're not paying them??? The way Ron Martin has shockingly mis-managed our beloved club -...

    Compulsory dog insurance.

    Compulsory dog insurance. Seems a good idea but surely a better idea would be for all dogs to be muzzled and on a lead in public places. Any infringement would result in the dog being destroyed and a hefty fine/imprisonment for the owner. No insurance payout is going to compensate for someones...
  11. Can things get any worse?

    A lot of fans feel very depressed about what's been going on at our club recently, but can things get any worse? I'm afraid the answer is yes. The one great thing we still have at this club right now is Tilly & Brush. They've proved what they can do on a tight (but reasonable) budget and in...
  12. TV Shows You Loved, But Apparently Nobody Else Did...

    Following on from my mention of Jericho on the "If it all ended" thread, What TV shows did you enjoy but were inevitable cancelled? For those who haven't seen it, Jericho first aired on CBS in the states and was pretty much excellent. It was set in the town of Jericho in Denver and followed the...

    Blair: Gaza's great betrayer

    It's more than a year since Israel launched its immoral attack on Gaza and Palestinians are still living on the verge of a humanitarian disaster. So what has Tony Blair done to further peace in the region? Virtually nothing, argues the historian Avi Shlaim Comments (98) Buzz up! Digg it Avi...
  14. 50 games which defined a decade - Part 1 (2000-2004)

    As we've had our last game of the decade, I had planned to do something about the top twenty matches of the ten years just gone but I found it very difficult to leave some matches out, plus in truth it's some of the defeats which have stuck with me the most. And rather than doing a countdown I...
  15. Adebayor Stamps His Authority, But Not His Quality

    Adebayor just doesn't get it, does he? He's a fine player when he wants to be, but his disgusting attitude will always stand between him and Manchester City Mediocrity. The Togolese centre forward started this season in sparkling form and is more than talented enough to be considered one of the...
  16. Pesky Lawyers Continue to Ruin Football

    Next time I get a speeding or a parking fine, I'm just going to ask for it to be suspended for when I can actually afford to flush £50 down the drain. Why not? It's worked for Chelsea... Rather predictably, the court of arbitration for sport has sided with the London club, suspending their...
  17. What Becomes of the Broke and Shafted

    Someone great once said that Football isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more than that. Which would explain the pain felt by those when their football club is ripped away from them. As a Southend United supporter, I've had the good grace of never witnessing non-league football and...
  18. Mayweather Dismantles Marquez, Clears path for Monumental Showdown

    Some might have suggested that, after a 22 month absence from the ring, there'd be a certain element of rust around Floyd Mayweather. Not after this performance. "Money" Mayweather, as he prefers to be called these days, looked every bit as deadly as the man who took Ricky Hatton to pieces in...

    Slipper of the Yard

    Wonderful article here by one of my favourite journalists/commentators, Mark Steyn: “He was always affable and very much a gentle giant,” said Bruce Reynolds. “He was one of the old school,” agreed one of Mr Reynolds’ colleagues. Gentlemen publishers? Art dealers? Yes, Mr Reynolds has a...

    X-Files Special: Prince of Wales really is a Charlie

    From Mark Steyn writing on NRO: According to His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, we only have 96 months left to save the planet. I’m impressed. 96 months. Not 95. Not 97. July 2017. Put it in your diary. Usually the warm-mongers stick to the same old drone that we only have ten years left...
