    Anyone remember Francis's faking injury

    people always say what would we be like if we had a plyer who dived to get a pen or whatever how would we feel. well not exactly the same but who saw francis go down like he had been hit by a rocket then seconds later jump straight back up after their player said something to him. imo dirty...

    Pistol-Whip The Cheats

    Nothing irritates me more than diving. Seriously, it's right up there above noisy eating, people who play tinny R'n'B through their cellphones on the bus and that invisible scratch on my West Wing DVD that smashes straight through the important bit ten minutes into every episode when you're...
  5. South Bank Hank

    Question "...and Macca takes a tumble"

    Given that UEFA have now charged Eduardo with diving to win a penalty in the Champions League against Celtic, I wondered what everyone's personal barometer was for what's acceptable and what isn't with respect to conning the referee WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR OWN TEAM. I'll be honest and say it's...

    Ron's Blog 6/5/09

    Haven't seen this anywhere else yet...... Chairman's Blog What a good day Saturday was and with nothing to play for I thought that the team performed well and remained committed to the cause right to the end. It was also a day to celebrate the success of the Club’s youth policy which, I...

    Comic Relief...."My mate is a Brighton fan..."

    If the fact that my mate Brett is a Brighton fan is not comedy enough, he's decided to do a Comic Relief fundraiser: "This year I shall be donating money to Comic Relief through the medium of the Seagull Soccerflid Circus. In the biggest 6 pointer since Todd Carty on Celebrity Dancing On Ice...

    Gerrard Again

    Dives for the pen, then scores it. Would you be happy if a Southend player did this?

    The Saturday Alternative: Shrimper in Suffolk

    Cannot quite face the trip up to Carlisle this Saturday? But still at a loss re what to do (and we cannot rely on Blues World)? Well, the real alternative option is here. At 3.00 pm this Saturday 6 September in the Deanery Gardens in Hadleigh, Suffolk, SHRIMPER THE DOG is going for a hatrick...

    roughest pub you have ever had the misfortune to enter!?!

    i think i may have been in the roughest pub i have ever stumbled across in recent years (and i have visited a few public houses in my time, but dont tell the misses)...i will not mention the drinking establishment for fear of upsetting fellow shrimpers who may be from that area, but any tales of...

    CLF and Drogba

    I watched the Champions League Final in Varsity last night. The atmosphere was brilliant and it was buzzing in there. I did have to ask one of the Man United fans who was gloating before the match if he knew how far Manchester actually was from Southend, but that was just another matter.... I...
  12. Alan Lee- A disgrace to Football

    Firstly what a great win today. Thought every player played well and all Shrimpers fans were brilliant. For those who were not at the game today Alan Lee punched the ball into the net Maradona style but thankfully both the Linesman and Ref were alert, the linesman flagged and the goal...

    BT - Week 1

    We're back and a nice start to my season: 0.1 W Mushtaq to Buchan And Sajjad is running around the boundary, he dives, and takes the catch one-handed. What a magnificent catch!! Maylett is the danger man though, hit Mushie for successive 6's and I'm hoping Sutherland can remove him: End of...

    Pubs to avoid near to White Hart Lane

    Been speaking to my mate at work who's a Spurs season and a bit of a boy if you know what i mean, he says avoid the Gilpin and The Phoenix.   These pubs usually house Tottenham's Top Boys and known trouble makers.  By all means, if you want trouble go to them   Most of the other pubs near WHL...

  16. On way home...

    ...well, only just out of Elland Road car park actually.  Oh, the joy of having a wireless network card! Where do I start?  We were unbelievable.  I don't know how the f@ck we lost that and it was quite possibly the most unjust defeat I've seen in nearly 11 years of watching Southend.   Dennis...

    Its joke time..

    Pierre, a brave French fighter pilot, takes his girlfriend, Marie, out for a pleasant little picnic by the River Seine. It's a beautiful day and love is in the air. Marie leans over to Pierre and says, "Pierre, kiss me!" Pierre grabs a bottle of Merlot and splashes it on...
  18. PFA League Two Player of the Year

    Lee "diver" Trundle.  Just announced on Sky Sports Goals on Sunday. Second was Lee Steele with just 11 goals this season.   Third was Phil "dives even more than Trundle" Jevons.   Can't believe Barrett was not in the top 3, and possibly Freddy as well
