  1. Ref Watch ........ Crewe

    After the excitement of the week-end and a quite decent, even good, performance from Stuart Attwell (it was an easy game to referee though and it doesn't make his rapid promotions right!), back to the mundane matter of Saturday's officials. Man in charge is Graham Scott from Abingdon. He is in...

    The Curse of the Password

    I know its meant to be a secret but I'm going to divulge my passwords. It was Freedman and as sooon as I changed it to that he was injured and hasn't played since, then I changed it to Laurent and he got sent off and missed three matches. Sorry, obviously my fault these two haven't been...

    Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend United 1 Leeds United 0

    Well done Steve Tilson and the boys... No boring 1-0 this one. A truly enthralling match at the Hall in which Southend emerged as worthy winners through an excellent long-range free kick from Dan Harding on 18 minutes. Southend started well in the first half with a virtuoso performance from...

    More Bloody Spurs Muck

    Gary Megson must have been furious when he woke up on Sunday morning and saw the backpages. The Bolton Wanderers manager had all week to look forward to a trip to White Hart Lane and then they go and boot out the floundering manager less than 24 hours before kick-off. The swift arrival of Harry...

    Rafa's Tactics Secure Win

    The journey back from London to Liverpool is a long one and, if any of the American contingent from Anfield bothered to make it, you rather hope that someone sat next to them on the bus and told them exactly why they were returning with three points. This victory wasn't due to their only notable...

    The Stiffs at Ipswich

    Well, not a patch on the 5-4 game last year and in many ways it was all a bit tame. They scored either side of the half time break, the second being from the spot after Lokando was sent off (deservedly really, though as it was only the stiffs the ref could maybe have bben lenient as it then...

    Boo-Boys Blight Effective England

    With three wins out of three and a new-found ability to pass the ball about on the ground, the Fabio Capello revolution is gradually gaining momentum. A surprisingly perky Kazakhstan team were eventually swept aside at Wembley, crushed 5-1 with a late flurry of goals. The dark days of the former...

    Stiffs ON BW

    The reserves midweek game against Posh is on BW.Is this a first? Thought Scannell and the Moose in particular looked lively.That goes for Revell too and Laurent scored a fine goal. I really wanted to see how Joyce looked in goal though.Didn't think he could be faulted for the 1st which was a 1...

    Your New Home

    Was listestening to Vine on Radio 2 a few days ago. The subject was "Would You Buy a House that had been "Repo"" One guy came on and said that it was all the homeowners fault and he had no sympathy. Others had no problem. Then what seemed a majority said that it would have bad Karma. I...

    West Sham

    Sometimes in life, when faced with inexplicable stupidity, there is a temptation to assume that perhaps it is you who is being stupid. When Steve McClaren decided to play long-ball to Michael Owen and Wayne Rooney in Russia last year, I briefly toyed with the theory that maybe, with his years of...

    The Bailey question

    The Club could have refused to sell him thereby making him honour his contract, however I dont think they could afford the extra payments that would have been due to Barnet. We are short of an experienced midfielder and a good centre back. Is that Baileys fault as well?

    Stupid England Get There Slowly

    The signs of improvement are visible, but Fabio Capello's mission to revitalise the England team is still some way from completion. There were moments, during this frustrating, attritional non-contest, of class and sophistication, but sporadic style couldn't eclipse the fact that this side are...
  18. Organ donation

    Bit quiet on here today so I thought I'd start a thread that hopefully will get the board animated. Quite simply, I believe in the "opt out" system of organ donation. I believe it's obscene that healthy organs are left to rot in the ground or burnt to dust when they can be used to save the life...

    Another reaction from last night

    Haven't had a chance to air my views about last night. I know people on here hate it when anybody has an even remotely negative opinion, but last night will go down as a very very low stage of my Southend United supporting history, be it all a short one of 7 years. The team looked...
