  1. 'Happy Hour'? last night

    Really don't want to put a downer on last night but the Club really needs to get its act together on the promotions side. I thought the £1 a pint idea was a good one and the timings right, £1 a pint 6-6:45 which then means you've got a crowd in with an hour to go before kick off who will then...

    Leo Roget etc and a few other ex-shrimpers on facebook...

    Trevor Fitzpatrick and Leo Roget commented on Leo Roget's status. Leo Roget A racist ignorant rude man who at the time was vice chairman at SUFC told me "Leo the only person who can stop you from being a success is you"........some 15 years later I fully understand what he means!!!

    Official Match Thread Southend United V Creepy Crawley (JPT)

    After Sturrock saying he might make changes, it's exactly the same team and subs as Saturday. Off to the Hall in a minute, hoping for revenge against Crawley!

    Mirror mirror on the wall whose the daftest of them all?

    Listening to BBC Essex on the way back Luggy said all needed to think hard about their efforts tonight and that he himself would be taking a look in the mirror. Well, sorry Mr S, but despite my deep respect for what you have so far done for SUFC, if you take an honest look I think you will find...

    Re: Prospects - Time to make a stand

    Re: Prospects - Time to make a stand So what with the Echo article the other week, it appears Prospects are again playing hard ball. You can in a way see their point, failed completions etc, but as a local business and not a private site for personal gain. Surely it is in their interest to go...

    Greatest US TV Dramas - your Top Five/Ten

    I think we may have already had this battle, but I've been watching some reruns of some of my favourite US shows over the last few months and it struck me how much better the output has been from the US in recent years in terms of great dramas. What have our friends at the BBC come up with...

    A Night of Poker

    Hi All, I remember a few years back someone on here organised an online poker event... I wish to do exactly the same! I am a member of the PKR website and can organise private tournaments which I would like to do for all Southend Fans who wish to enter. The idea is to have fun. I will make the...

    What is closer to realism...

    After 20 ish years of supporting this club 8 unconsciously and 12 consciously , since my first game Southend United 5 - 3 Bournemouth I have been an optimist. I come on this board nearly everyday to associate myself with this club and the fans because I can't stay away. If we win, If we lose...

    Starting already.......

    Well I suppose I shouldn't be surprised by some of our fan base, but listening to the coverage of the game on BBC Essex last night, I couldn't quite believe my ears, when a text was read out stating that Sturrock should "......do us all a favour, and go back to Devon, taking his son with...

    2011 Season

    Opening day is almost upon us, which team do you follow and what do you think to their prospects for the coming season? It’s been quite an off-season at Wrigley Field, interim manager Mike Quade was made full-time manager after leading the Cubs to a 24-13 finish in 2010. The Cubs main...

    Not Paul Sturrock, but to Shrewsbury's Graham Turner. Good, we stay under the radar which is exactly what we want and I am now definitely confident for a win tomorrow.
  14. For all you old boys.....please read

    Next week is the 50th birthdays of 3 special (needs) supporters, Ginger, Phil Selfe and Graham. To celebrate nearly 120 years of support for the blues we are going to morecombe and staying over night in the town, I know it's short notice, but for the old gits and youngsters as well if you want...

    The Qatar World Cup

    I was interested to see this in the news again with Sepp Blattering on about it. Apparently his comments were the strongest indication yet that it'll be held in the Summer. This came as a surprise to me, as I thought his comments were the strongest indication yet that it would be switched to...

    The Palestine Papers

    Sorry, but coming hot on the heels of yesterday's "independent" enquiry into the Gaza cargoships fiasco, Israel doesn't exactly come out of Wikileaks covered in glory either. http://gu.com/p/2mt3q

    The wonderful ticket office

    In its wisdom has a new policy in place to stop fans reserving tickets. My bank account has a debit card which is not recognised by the machines used in the ticket office and as a result I cannot buy tickets over the phone. The club has been kind enough to acknowledge that the issue is with...

    A rant.

    1. Chanting '****ing Useless to our own player who puts his ****ing heart into his performances, doing what nobody else wants to do, the ****ing dirty work. 2. Cheering when Rhys Evans catches the ball. Brilliant. 3. Constant moaning. 4. Chanting the Seagull louder than anything else. 5...

    Salute The General!

    Not exactly hot off the press, but I only recently found out about the death of General Johnson, erstwhile lead vocalist of the wonderful soul band, The Chairmen Of The Board. Some of the old Leigh Comm brigade will remember those great singles from the early seventies, ie. Give Me Just A Little...
