  1. Pre-Match Thread Rotherham v Southend United

    So with Hall and Grant suspended for Saturday how will we shape up? Assuming Sawyer still injured we will be a bit short in the middle.. Will Moshni slot back into defence and push someone into mid-field? Any ideas of good line up for Saturday??

    Grant and Hall

    Got yellow cards today and am I right that they will miss the game at Rotherham now? If they are were screwed.

    West Ham v Millwall

    Tomorrow. 12.30pm kick off. I think this one could get messy. Massive interest. Standard talk of huge police presence. Warnings in the papers and on the club sites to any fans intent on causing trouble. After the debacle at Upton Park in the Carling Cup a few years ago and then the flag over...

    Midfield Lack Of Creativity

    Luggy is an experienced and relatively successful Manager, but why oh why does he think that Grant, Ferdinand and Kalala can all play together in the same Team - for what it's worth I think that all 3 are good players in their own right, but the balance that they provide is just WRONG. We need...

    Juicy story??

    chris phillips tweeted that he is just finishing off the juiciest story he has written about Southend in some time. Sounds ominous.. Apparently giving a clue later tonight and I assume story will be out tomorrow? Anyone in the know?
  6. Afters at Accy

    Did anyone get a view of what happened outside the changing rooms as the players returned after the final whistle? Clearly there was some argy-bargy that the ref had to get involved in to break up. I was on my way out of the terrace so was not in a good position to see what was going on. I...

    Sawyer can't get a start with Sturrock......

    Yet again he comes on tonight and shows crablike, Grant, Ferdinand and Kalala how to go forward with pace, skill and movement. Why can't the man in charge see that when he is involved we look so much more dangerous and exiting to watch. Like Sturrock but how is he missing this blatant move is...

    Second half v. Hereford.

    I'm no expert but it seemed to me we lost control of the midfield because the middle 4 were not supporting the front 2. The ball was played up to Mohsni and Harris but the likes of Grant and Kalala seemed 30 yards behind them far too often, leaving with no options to play the midfield into an...
  9. Pre-Match Thread Southend United v Leyton Orient

    Given that we have a pretty large squad at the moment and the fact that we will have only played a match 3 days previous to this game, i'd give some of the other lads a go in this one. We know that Grant and Barker are doubts for the game so straight away, we'll leave these two out so i'm...
  10. Grant

    Is it just me or did grant today seem rather stroppy and not looking very happy? If so could it be because of the rumours and speculation about his possible departure? Would anyone be able to share thoughts, opinions and or facts on this topic.

    Strongest XI

    Ok so we may see a number leave, and there are injuries but just imagine for a minute that everyone is here to stay, everyone is fit. Name your strongest XI + subs. It's not often we feel so good about our squad, let's revel in it. I'll kick off with... .................Morris Clohessy Mohsni...

    Wrestling Entrance Themes - from Bill Simmons' new site

    My interest in the WWE has been somewhat reawakened with the CM Punk vs The Company angle, and it's obviously been a factor for Mr Simmons. who decided that the time is now to write this missive: 'Good Lord! That's His Music!'

    Affinity with the team

    What a difference a year makes. Last season in the friendlies we were all shouting "Who are ya? Who are ya?" at our own players... now many are going on tour up to Scotland and thanks to facebook and twitter we are thinking of a lot of these lads almost as our mates. Quite a turnaround. And...

    So we have signed Harris, N'Diaye and Johnson. Does anyone have any information if any players have moved on or gone out on loan. Delighted that Hall, Ferdinand, Bilel and Grant all still here.

    Just how stupid can our Country get?

    "The immigration minister, Damian Green, has denied MPs' claims that a "silent amnesty" has been granted to more than 160,000 asylum seekers over the past five years by a UK Border Agency (UKBA) that is still "not fit for purpose". A report published by the Commons home affairs select committee...
