    Liverpool Not Out Yet

    Liverpool fans must be feeling numb by now. There's only so much bad news you can take before you end up rocking backwards and forwards in the corner of the room, dribbling on your shoes and the weekend defeat to Barnsley was the final straw for most long-suffering Reds. Never has there been...
  2. cockles is back

    problems up front/at the back............

    Listen lets cut the crap, there are massive problems throughout the structure of the team. Yes you can blame it on the forward line, yes you can pull the defence up, but lets be honest I can't remember seeing a southend team with so little ability to create,change,adapt,to read a game, as i am...

    Worst School Trip ever.

    Mrs DtS neice is off on a school trip today. This got me thinking back to my school days (Yes I did go to school) and about some of the crap school trips we went on. I think possibly the worst one I ever went on was when I did A-Level Geography - a field trip to Whitby. The trip itself was a...

    The Goal Wall

    Here's a football game for you to try. It's based on a regular feature of a long-running Saturday night sports show on German TV station ZDF. At the end of each week's show, they invite all their guests to have six shots at their goal wall, the Torwand. All the great and good of German football...

    The fbm view and ratings - West Ham

    FREDDIE RUNS SHOW AS BLUES SUFFER LOSS Well, here we go again as the first home pre season friendly kicked off against West Ham on Saturday. There was a fair smattering of hammers fans in the crowd which was not the sell out predicted but still around the 9500 mark. Southend lined up as...

    Mick Harford and Col Ewe

    He's left them for QPR:- BBC The commute from Hertfordshire to North Essex was too much for him. But the commute to West London will be easier will it?

    BT - Season 7 Hopes and Expectations

    We kick off on Sunday again with what should be an easy TIE for most of us. We've proven what a decent set of teams we have after beating a fed who had more teams starting in Season 1 than we did. Well done boys, let's do that again next season! Nice to know we have good back up teams too if...

    I am the verge of committing a murder.

    I want to make it quite clear that I love the club shop and think the staff do a cracking job...............But............... I have been trying to renew my S/T for three days now. Everytime I get in the queue I seem to be third - Now this isnt a third that slowly but surely works its way down...
  12. Just got back

    Living in Tiverton it was the game I've been looking forward to, only an hour away. Got off to the worst start - Clarkey very guilty of not clearing his lines and we gifted them a goal. For the next half an hour we were more than competitive and thoroughly deserved the equaliser and glad that...
  13. BBC Predictor - Final Day Drama?

    After todays results, and taking estimated guesses that we'll beat both Barnsley and Luton, but lose to Preston and Plymouth, the table going into the final day is as follows: Hull 50 -13 Leeds 46 - 24 ---------------------- Southend 45 -26 Barnsley 42 -32 Luton 38 -25...

    The way I see it

    We have to win our home games and win away, it doesnt matter which one but we have to. qpr are now 7 points ahead of us and they are at home to luton on monday. hopefully luton win. if qpr win the gap will be 7-10 points (dependant on our result at preston) with 4 games to go. qpr's last 4 games...

    What colour strip will we wear tomorrow???

    Presume we will be in a change strip tomorrow . So will it be 'lucky' red or white ? Previous threads have pointed out that red is not as lucky as we think and we wore white at Cardiff. I'd settle for a re-run of that performance/result tomorrow. I am not sure which colour strip I prefer. I...

    Scriven interview

    From the Trust newsletter, I quote the juiciest bits “We were in League Two when I started here, and we have won two promotions in my time at the club. I’m really the tactical mastermind behind Steve Tilson and Paul Brush!” “The club have progressed at first team level, and in turn, we have...
  17. 17 Passes ,a Record ?

    Was watching my recording of the now famous QPR demolition as I only got to see it live in person first time around and the best move of the game came in the first half and consisted of a 17 pass move from our great escapists ,yes ,a Seventeen pass move from a Southend Team ,almost unheard of...
  18. Tilson might know what he is doing...

    "Mechanistic" v "Psychological" I have read the threads debating both Tilson's wisdom over signings, and the perceived demise of Shrimperzone with interest. Here is a thought. Tilson, Brush and Martin know exactly what they are doing, and are working to a plan which balances success on...
  19. How vital is Rochford's nod?

    Great news people...I'm as excited as the next man. However how vital are the decisions regarding the future of the Roots Hall site and Rochford's decision over the training pitches and car park? Personally I cant see there being many probs regarding the Roots Hall plot as its in a prime...

    Derby Commentary

    I'm listening to the commentary on BBC Radio Derby online and I can't believe some of the comments coming out from the mouth of the summariser (Ted McMinn) who must be the most ill-informed person in football. His latest 'gem' is suggesting (quite seriously) that the £25,000 paid to Barnet for...
