    So how bad is it really?

    For the first time in many seasons, fbm is worried. It definitely now feels as though we have been relegated rather than just not going up, and our total inability to stride past these non league teams in cruise control has me worrying what may happen if we lose heavily at Wycombe on Saturday...

    Luiz Felipe Scolari

    If Luiz Felipe Scolari has learned anything in his first month in English football, it's that Sir Alex Ferguson doesn't waste any time in welcoming new rivals to the Premier League. The Manchester United manager's snipe about Chelsea players and their advanced ages came whizzing in under radar...

    The fbm view - Canvey

    I'm not going to do a report as such, but will offer just a few comments about tonights performance... if you can call it that having drawn 0-0 against a poor Canvey outfit. This time last year a side containing such stalwart strikers as Billy Paynter and Matt Harrold thrashed Canvey 6-1. We...

    Is it easier to pull a women if you have a beard?

    One of the SZFC lads recently has grown a beard and at the same time has seen his fortune with women take a turn for the better. Friday nights achievement of 2 pulls in 5 mins was more proof that the beard has magical powers. Perhaps women prefer the more rugged look. Anyone else had similar...

    It's good to talk

    I noticed tonight on Irish tv, there were at least 3 instances of adverts encouraging people to talk more if they have problems that are affecting their daily lives. Always hearing people harping on about their physical health, and how they need to do more running or gym work is all well and...

    A Few Thoughts On The Season Just Gone And Of Next Season

    I have now accepted the fact that we were unfortunatly not good enough to go up this season in what ended up being a very tough league with some decent sides in it i have now started to reflect on the season just gone. Last night was a kick in the nuts and i'm gutted for the players to have...

    Help required from da kidz

    You might remember that, this time last season, an Irish newspaper commissioned me to write a fictional account of an intercepted SMS conversation between Carlo Ancelotti and Rafa Benitez. The catch was that both managers had to be portrayed as being well versed in the patois of the nation's...

    Have Crutches Will Travel - The Big Shrimp In Carlisle

    How do I start about Saturday's trip to Carlisle? I had a great day? Yes, but it barely sufficient to say just that. Superb, brilliant, memorable etc etc, might just about do it justice! Despite loads of people questioning my sanity about doing the long trek to the frozen North (there was even...

    Manchester City

    The legendary British football commentator Stuart Hall once earned himself a telling-off from then-Manchester City manager Kevin Keegan for continually referring to Maine Road as, “The Theatre of Comedy.” Keegan implored Hall to show the club some respect, but as Hall later pointed out...

    Turkey striker, Nihat.

    While England’s footballers sulk in their sun-loungers, the rest of the continent will be contesting the 2008 European Championships. Iain Macintosh, who still won’t allow the word ‘McClaren’ to be uttered in his home, runs the rule over some of the potential stars of the summer. This week, it’s...
  12. Automatic

    Although Carlise have an 8 point lead over us I feel until 5pm on Saturday, the Automatics are not yet beyond us. Carlise are away to Leeds. The following week they entertain us, and the last two remaining fixtures are against towo relegation candidates Millwall and Bournmouth. Should Carlise...

    Semi-match report

    I thought I may as well put my thoughts on the game up as I've barely been on since the game. As I mentioned before this match, the form of the home team compared with that of the away team and the relative league standings pointed only one way: Away win. Sure enough, the form book wasn't...

    Poor old Spurs

    Juande Ramos' tilt at a third successive UEFA Cup ended in heartbreak at The Philips Stadium when Pascal Chimbonda dragged his spot-kick wide of the goal and sent PSV Eindhoven through by the narrowest of margins. Despite 210 minutes of football, these weary gladiators had to be separated by a...

    The Freddy Eastwood, Wolves Situation...

    Now i know we have a thread in the ex-shrimpers for Freddy, but i thought it would be easier to start a new one to shed some light on Fred's situation up there. Here is some info i have just got on a Wolves messageboard after posting a thread... This is my post; Hi. Southend fan here...

    Results today

    So... reasonably happy with the weekends results? Tranmere lose at home, and Orient throw away three points ! It means we are closer to the playoffs than we were before the weekend Walsall and Doncaster win .. looks like we are after 6th place ! Leeds win ... ominous and they have some...

    Ribery Set To Shine

    With Euro 2008 now less than 100 days away and UEFA showing no signs of inexplicably kicking anyone out of the tournament to make room for England, it’s time for acceptance. Naturally, this acceptance will come easier to you than it will to me, which is why I decided to get the heads-up on a few...
  20. Marathon

    Hello I'm running the London Marathon to try and raise money for Little Havens this April and it would be great if any fellow Shrimpers would be able to sponsor me. I've set up the website www.justgiving.com/christopherphillips1 to make it all a bit easier. Cheers Chris
