    Question Should Barnard return after Loan?

    So Lee seems to be doing pretty well after a couple of games, and we still have problems in front of goal. If his good form continues should he be given another chance in a Southend shirt? Yes or No?
  2. John-Joe O'Toole

    JJ O'Toole could leave Northampton on loan. Would you want him? Personally, I think he will be a good addition to the side, we could do with a striker. Bristol Rovers used to play him up front when he was with them
  3. Dan Bentley.

    As of late,I feel Mr Bentley has been at fault for some of the goals conceded !! I know I will be criticised by some,but I think his performances have not been too snappy. If Paul Smith had been playing,he would have been crucified. I personally think Bentley should be given a rest,or,even sold...

    Pre-Match Thread FA Cup - Southend v Chester

    Anything to discuss on the team selection front? I presume the same team as against Mansfield although that assumes that the loan players will be allowed to play - Williams & Sokky that is. Or perhaps put Smith in goal or give Bolger and Thompson a chance in central defence? No disrespect to...
  5. Chester Match

    Hello everyone, I am heading down to your place on the train with my young lad for next weeks FA Cup match. Are there any boozers/chippies that you can all recommend to me? Want to make his first train journey for an away match a good one. On the ticket front do the away fans need to get tickets...

    Rochester & Strood by-election

    A really interesting battle this. The betting has already flip-flopped a couple of times, with UKIP opening up as favourites, then the Conservatives being backed in, before a Survation poll put UKIP well in front. Betting wise though, the tide is slowly ebbing towards the boys in blue again...
  7. Answer to Goalscoring Problems

    So, we are struggling in front of goal. Why doesn't The Blue Voice take a leaf out of the Master Race's book and lend the lads a hand? (And who said Germans don't have a sense of humour - Thank You FC Magdeburg Fans!) http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0HhA2OQaLt8
  8. Motion sensors/outside lights

    Hi all. Our house (mid-terrace) has an enclosed alley which we use day in day out to get to our back door (we're in yorkshire, no one uses the front!). The alley doesn't have any lights and so in the winter when it's dark it's not easy or pleasant heading down there. Even more so with a pram or...

    Pre-Match Thread Shrews at The Hall.

    I can not find a thread on the actual football game so here goes............ Same team as York or does Phil want to make a change? This is hard to call; I think Mr Brown will put Barry back in for Weston, then maybe bring Weston on after an hour. Barry helps at defending set pieces and has his...
  10. Formations- What is Blues Best Formation?

    What is Blues Best Formation at the moment? i think we need to play a 4-3-1-2 to allow payne just behind the two strikers with corr up front to get the ball down with another striker with pace to break into opposition's defenses (weston or shaq) i think shaq would benefit more playing upfront...

    Hang your head in shame Phil Brown

    should walk after that. Not overreacting but his comments in the press about not wanting to score and just stop them going in were unbelievable. However he carried out his plan today against a useless outfit that quite honestly we should be beating 4 0. Jack Payne ran the show in the first half...

    Good news?

    UK has fastest growing economy. Thought I would post this for Barnas benefit so he can keep up. He won't see it himself as strangely his paper doesn't seem to carry the story, although it is front page news for both the Times and the Telegraph...
  14. Roman-Michael Percil

    Hearing Roman-Michael Percil has left the club with Brown deciding to not offer him a contract. Brown had stated that he did not think he could handle 46 games a season.. But he certainly impressed me, looked quick, skilful and could make things happen, albeit against non-league teams. With...

    Sponsors required for a football team.

    I'm looking for a sponsor for my side Southminster & Norton. We are a Sunday league side who play in the first division of the Pope & Smith league. The sponsor will have their logo on the front of both the home and away shirts. This is a great opportunity, so please get in touch if you are...

    Warm up games

    With it all being quiet on the Southend front I'm resorting to posting about England. It's the second warm-up friendly tonight against Ecuador. From what Hodgson's said looks like the likely line-up will be: Foster Milner Smalling Jones Shaw Lampard...

    A few tips for Wallace

    Ed [Wallace] Milliband is visiting Thurrock today [crosshairs mounted on front of car, just in case] I wonder if he is going to follow the tips suggested below. Ed Miliband is giving a speech in Thurrock this morning, the crucial number 2 target seat for Labour where the party have just lost...

    Current England players who came through the lower leagues

    Adam Lallana scored twice at Roots Hall and again on the final day of the 09/10 season in League One for Southampton, to take his tally to 20 goals for the season. In that latter game Alex Oxlade Chamberlain came on as sub and Ricky Lambert scored twice. Lambert also scored four against us the...
  20. Ref Watch ...... Rochdale A

    Today's referee is the relatively inexperienced official, Jeremy Simpson fron Carnforth in Lancashire. He is in his second season as a League referee and has not refereed Southend before. He has had quite a few Championship appointments amongst his 29 games this season which have produced a...
