  1. War chest discovered or just another cunning plan?

    Phil has been indicating he hopes to sign or resign several players. Either next seasons budget will be smashed or it's a load of waffle in the hope fans buy ST's or am I just being cynical? Instead of talking to the press Phil just bloody sign them !

    Names on seats

    Just for a change the club have made ***** of themselves. I renewed two season tickets, one in my name and one in my sons name and requested or ticked the box to have our names on the seats. The ticket office have just phoned and asked if i want my name on both seats???? I said what do you...

    Ball Street

    Ball Street did a little feature on our upcoming game with Burton. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkpDCiGvCfM Not very good with these link things so this might not of worked For those that don't know them their other stuff is pretty good too. Refreshing that someone is trying to get more...

    Food mistakes

    I had a bit of a hangover Saturday morning and instead of going for a Sausage and Egg McMuffin meal I tried the Burger King equivalent. It was absolutely rank and came with chips instead of hash browns. If you ever feel tempted don't make the same mistake I did.
  5. Ref Watch ........ Portsmouth H

    Our first referee of the New Year is Dave Phillips from Chichester in West Sussex, refereeing his tenth Southend match in his sixth season as a League referee. His first Southend match was Huddersfield at home five years ago (lost 1-0), second was away ay Yeovil four years ago (lost again...

    Apollo theatre

    While I'm glad as hell that nobody died last night, I'd like to hear a statement from the management asap, as to when the theatre might be re-opening. Mrs Tangled and I have tickets for the show the night before our cup game with Millwall in January.I don't reckon our chances too much.Anyone...

    Off to see Tes today

    Not gonna be able to make it to Chesterfield today but instead will get in a more local trip as Tes Bramble has turned up at Hadleigh United (in Suffolk) - at home in the FA Vase today - so only a mile to walk to a match for a change. He's played a few already and scoring shed loads fresh out of...
  8. Ref Watch ...... Cheltenham Home

    Tomorrow's man in charge is the loose cannon that is Trevor Kettle. Or, rather, Wing Commander Trevor Kettle based at RAF High Wycombe. His last visit to the Hall was co-incidentally against Cheltenham when he was good enough to send off one of theirs in our 4-0 win. A repeat would be good...

    Over-enthusiastic sending's off.....

    Thought that this might lighten the mood this morning. This really made me laugh! :clap: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2477670/Thats-unsporting-bee-haviour-Burnley-mascot-Bertie-Bee-sent-handing-pair-glasses-linesman.html Just wondering - if we had sent Sammy the Shrimp and...

    Basildon Utd tomorrow

    Im sure I heard on Essex Radio a week or two ago, Paul Clarke saying there was some benefit game, possibly something to do with Micky Stead, being played at Basildon Utd tomorrow (29 Sept), with plenty of SUFC old boys in attendance. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks xxxx
  11. Ref Watch ........ Scunthorpe H

    The return of Friday night football sees the continuation of the waterfowl theme. After Sheldrake's abysmal performance a couple of weeks' ago, tonight we have Coote. We have a pretty decent record against Scunthorpe at home and the man in charge as we attempt to keep that good record going is...
  12. Positives & Negatives

    What are your positives and negatives so far this season? Positives; - The football being played is brilliant to watch & a complete contrast to the last few seasons. I applaud what Sturrock did, but the entertainment factor was missing from his style of football, whereas so far it's been very...
  13. Today's Game

    Hi Everyone, I've been watching the Zone from afar for quite a few years now, and as a Southend fan for most of my life I've always enjoyed the banter, various opinions and often lively transfer rumours on the zone! Anyway my first post is to introduce myself - my name is Adam Duffill, I've...

    Bodybuilding protein drinks.

    Does anyone else think these take a lot of the pleasure out of eating protein? Why don't they do them in meat flavours such as steak, chicken, bacon etc. instead of chocolate, strawberry and banana?

And we all...

    The melodrama on these boards

    So from what I can ascertain people didnt enjoy themselves yesterday and the atmosphere was bad. There were too many 'day trippers' which ruined it for everyone else and not enough people were singing. Mohsni is the devil and his display made us lose the match. Really? REALLY? Now everyones...
  17. Cowards and gutless

    I am still In shock at watching so called full time pros laying down and giving in without any courage or fight,Those players in front of 30000 home fans should have run through brick walls and shed blood for the cause instead they choked on every 50/50 ball,They stood and admired Crewe without...

    Overview of PS this season.

    Did Luggy fail the promotion test or was it other factors? I believe he had a problem from the very beginning of this season. I feel he may have been undermined with the arrival of Freddy. It could be the case that RM saw Freddy as a great PR project - Shrimpers legend returns - in an attempt...
  19. Ref Watch ...... Torquay

    As we look to maintain our decent recent form against Torquay (3 wins, 2 draws from last 5) we have a reeferee who is about as consistent as our players lately. His last Roots Hall game was very good, the previous one woeful. Man in charge of this must-win game is Dave Phillips from Chichester...

    Secondary school appeals

    Guys and girls, hoping to draw on the wealth of knowledge and experience that's seen on here from time to time. To cut a long story short (not sure if specifics matter), we live in Westcliff at the moment but are planning to move into Rayleigh sometime in July. My son is at Blenheim school at...
