  1. Norwich v Southend

    Carrow Road on Boxing Day will always be a bit special for me: it was there back in 1995 that I saw my first ever away win. Gary Jones crouching down at the far post to head in the orange ball at a snow covered Carrow Road. It was only my 27th away game. Sadly Blues' away form since we...

    Draw good enough?

    So then reactions - what do we think, was a draw enough? Quite frankly I was about to boot the tv down after freddy missed such a brilliant opportunity but I felt satisfied that we hadnt lost. I mean we haven't won away from home all season so it was important to at least grab a point. I...

    Mitchell Cole

    With Mark Gower suspended after being sent off at Col U, what a chance for Mitchell Cole, he should grab it with both hands. No doubting his ability, but now he must produce. - G PS: Am I right in thinking that Gower can play tomorrow against Barnsley and then misses the game next Saturday??

    NOT QUITE ALL WHITE AS BLUES GRAB POINT Southend earned a deserved point against play-off chasers Plymouth at the Hall today, but wore their all white away kit to do it! Presumably the visitors had not brought down their away strip and so it was felt that the easiest solution would be for us...

    Robert Mugabe

    In short our beloved Prime Minister took this country to war against Iraq, first with the pretence of WMD and once that had been debunked it was to rid the planet of a menace and a man subsequently found guilty of genocide against his own people. Robert Mugabe has systematically taken his...

    A man joined the Army

    ...and on his first night in the barracks asks the other guys what they do each evening. "Well, Monday nights are drinking nights. We go to the town and get legless. Great!" "But I don't drink." "OK. On Tuesday nights we have the card school. Playing poker...

    5 games in..

    After reading on this site since the start of the season, I know that I am not the only one to be annoyed witht the way some people have just jumped on the players backs, when we are in the Championship for god sake, so here are my thoughts on the season so far, what do you all think? Positives...
  9. Improving Shrimperzone

    Hey ppl, I'm down in Bournemouth at uni and about to start my final year here of an IT degree. I'm constantly on Shrimperzone in order to keep in touch with all things Southend United. At the mo Im trying to think up an idea for my dissertation. I've been considering an idea which...

    Goal of the season

    Simple really, what wonder strike will grab the award? Will it be taken away from Gower? (yes) Freddy's 3rd at Bristol has to be in with a shout. Not to mention Che's at Col Ewe, excellent play!

    We will go up

    I've just returned from Southend i must say i'm very disappointed with all the negativity on this site. Today we played pretty poor but that is just today. We're playing Swansea who are in a bad run and i defintely think we can grab a point there, we are also waiting on the others...
  12. Bristol City

    You can see it now, we have a penalty in second half against Bristol city both Goater and Eastwood grab the ball because Fredy wants to end up as League one top scorer and Goater wants to seal his final game with a goal! So who would you want to see take it?
  13. All At Sea

    Thanks as always to everybody who bought a copy on Good Friday. We only have about 50 copies left for sale on Saturday. It's our last issue of the season and has an exclusive interview with Shaun Goater, so don't miss out. You can get one from the usual places (outside the club shop, and...
  14. Without Freddy...

    ...I'm afraid we looked very average today. I didn't think we'd miss him against such a side as Walsall, but we really did. I'm afraid there was no-one to grab the game by the scruff of the neck like he did last week. We worked very hard for no reward today, but nobody wins...

    Adam Barrett want Championship football

    For next season after signing his new contract (see Official Website), so forget about the aim to finish in midtable, and start aiming high - if there is an chance of promotion its better to grab it with both hand.

    F UKING DISGUSTED..

    F v o o m: Went to grab a newspaper of the seat and was pushed aside some Lippy Chavs who proceeded to say "Get out the way or we'll stab you" Typical, then said to them go on then.. obviously the thought of actually being confronted stopped them (typical cowards) as they got off...

    Greetings from Hong Kong

    As usual HK is buzzing despite the WTO protests which is big news over here and causing a strange daytime atmosphere. People aren't used to tight security in buildings. HK absolutely rocks at night and it is the friendliest place on this earth. Other than China there's no better place on...

    JEKYLL AND HYDE AT BARNET FAIR Victorian accounts of Barnet Fair deem it to be a "disgrace to civilisation". 90% of attendees came to trade “Horses, Donkeys or Mules” but there were other sideshows, not least the man who ate live rats “as though they were apples”. In such times freakshows at...

    UNDER 7s GO FREE

    Mornin' all, i received an e-mail from the club yesterday telling me Under 7s can go free at Roots Hall. I read something about this in the Rotherham prog on Saturday but didn't know Blues were involved in it. I sent a rather terse reply asking about a refund for my sons season ticket...
