  1. Southend Homeless

    :cry: Not sure if I'm in the right place, but do you think Shrimpers would be prepared to highlight the plight of the rough sleepers of Southend by, maybe, inviting the occasional one to be their mascot for the day.

    Homelessness in Britain

    http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-38386088 As someone who used to work with the homeless in the UK, (for The Cyrenians and Harrow Probation Service),this sort of article makes me ashamed to be British.

    Homelessness set to rise

  5. Question Southend the new Brighton?

    Odd title but here me out.... I have done alot of work with Brighton and Hove Albion and it has dawned on me that Southend find themselves very much in the same dangerous position that Brighton did back in 1997. At the time Brighton had a Chairman called Mr Bellotti (Ron with less lushious...

    If southend ceased to exist

    If southend ceased to exist : Where would that leave roots hall? Would sainsburys and Ron just be able to build the new superstore or are there clauses in place when they applied that this cant happen? How would we go around re-grouping and reforming and what sort of level could we...

    Tories in power for less than half an hour and already a Scottish family is unemployed and homeless.

    First post....for a year!

    Just checked out my stats and realised that I haven't made a post for a whole year! I guess this partly comes from the fact that I live in Japan and haven't seen Southend play for what seems like forever. Think I last watched a game over Christmas/New Year 2006/7. Can't have been very good as I...

    Bruno

    Played this through at work tonight, and it is brilliant. Laughs all the way through, and more cringe-worthy moments than Borat. Nice and short too, at 86 ish minutes in duration, so it doesn't drag at all. One prize moment was Bruno telling a terrorist leader in the Middle East that his 'King...

    “It was only four years ago that this club was losing £2.3m a season,” Ron Martin enthused as he published the accounts for the financial year ending July 2002 which showed that Southend United has lost “just” £707,665, the fourth year in succession that the club had reduced its losses.
