  1. Should Southend get cynical?

    We are by far the most naive team I've seen this season. Every other team is streets ahead of us in doing the little things that helps them win games. Example one Clobbering key opposition players in the opening minutes. Both Norwich and Birmingham had our trainer on three times in the...

  2. Eastwood's lack of effort.

    I was so fed up yesterday with Eastwood's effect for the team that I decided to concentrate on just him for 5 minutes. He seemed not really interested and hardly made much effort to run or win the ball. When he did receive it he lost it very fast or his pass was poor. It appears that he...

    You know things are bad when.........

    ....after we lost yesterday I felt absolutely NOTHING! Usually for me after we lose games I get angry, annoyed and generally fed up and my family say that I'm not nice to be around. But after the Wolves defeat yesterday, I just felt like laughing. Have we become almost immune to losing...

    Let's get this into perspective...

    I'm as disappointed as the next person at what happened on Saturday, and the reactions of the inbreds can hardly come as a surprise. I think that what we need to bear in mind is exactly what is driving their desperation to milk every last drop out of their moment of glory: Col******r have never...

    Neil Shipperly

    Apparently his loan to Hull has fallen through due to injury. That makes me feel a bit better that we didn't get him now.

    Andy Harris

    Eastleigh skipper Andy Harris has fallen victim to the Silverlake Stadium injury curse. Harris, who has taken over the captain's armband from Danny Smith, limped off with a knee injury after 69 minutes of last Saturday's 1-1 friendly draw at Dagenham & Redbridge. Now the Conference...

    A waisted talent

    This is the headline on page 92 of todays Daily Mail, which accompanies a 3/4 page article on Ricketts and how he has fallen from grace. There is a big picture of him against Gt Wakering and also a cartoon dedicated to him. It also states his weight when he signed for us... 16 stone and 4lbs...

    The fbm view and ratings

    AGAINST ALL ODDS Years ago, when Southend were regularly plumbing the depths of the division now known as league 2, I used to get some funny looks when people found out I was a season ticket holder at Roots Hall.  “What on earth for?” they used to quip, “Surely you must play ‘Spot the Crowd’...

    HT Transfer Market

    Has the bottom totally fallen out of the HT Transfer Market, especially for midfielders? I've just picked up a 24 year-old extra-terrestrial playmaker... for £722,000. OK, so his wages (at £50K per week) are on the lumpy side - but provided I'm getting gates around the 40K-50K mark, then...

    Scott Ashenden

    Hi, dunno who remembers Scott Ashenden, but he made his debut at the same time as Steve Brown, around when Collymore joined (I think he missed a sitter in Collymore's debut). I notice one of my opponents in the Borough Comb div one last year was a Scott Ashenden...just wondered if he was...

  11. Why have things gone wrong?

    1. Missing Sodje and Prior With one of these two in we clean up everything in the air. They are strong, experienced defenders who organise our defence and make us a much more physical side. They protect a vulnerable Flahavan. The statistics pretty much say it all. Sodje played 11 games (plus...

  12. Football League Fights Back

    Agents Fees Jesus Christ, no sooner had Newell made the press conference and the Football League publish the Agent Fees for this season so far, indicating clearly they've fallen by £600k and that only 13% of transfers involved an agent... Clearly nobody told League Chiefs about being discreet....

    Thanks for all your help and ideas on this feature, guys. You may recognise a few phrases here and there. This, I believe was the first article published in a national broadsheet (Eire) that was co-written by the Southend Messageboard. Scott Parker (Chelsea – Newcastle, £6.5 million, June)...

  16. Glorious weekend

    I opened up the sports supplement in the Times today and nearly p1ssed myself laughing when I saw that Celtic threw the SPL away in the last 2 minutes of their match with Motherwell. The picture of Bellamy looking crestfallen on the pitch is priceless. For me personally this was a great...

  18. Southend to play On FA Cup Final day

    I can safely say that Southend United have never played a game on FA Cup Final day before(unless someone knows otherwise). It just made me realize just how far the FA Cup has come down in prestige in the last few years. Not so long ago there would be no other sporting event of any note on FA...
