    Boothroyd banter!

    Thought you lot might like a laugh, this has been taken from our OMB, at least Adrian's interviews are interesting and amusing, he is a bit like our team, you never know what is going to happen next! ***************************************************** Here's a selection of some of Aidy's...

    Henry - A Great Big Woman

    Cheat. Liar. Criminal. Who would have thought that these would have been the words we would eventually associate with the much-loved, oft-celebrated Thierry Henry? Well, me, actually. For all the magnificence that he has shown on the pitch over the years, he has been like this for a few years...

  3. The Midfield Balance

    Last week, I posted this after the Brighton game. http://www.shrimperzone.com/vb/showpost.php?p=1027163&postcount=55 Now more than ever, after two dismal losses against run of the mill teams where we've created nothing, it's been made quite evident that the midfield we operate doesn't work...

  4. The Man from Uefa. He say Okay.

    Strikers around the world rejoice! You can indeed feign a collision with a goalkeeper, be awarded a penalty, and even escape punishment when replays show you for the cheat you are. UEFA bowed to Arsenal's appeal and today retracted Eduardo's two-game ban levied at him in the wake of his antics...

  5. Question Most important pre-season question

    Ok, so it's a slow day at work! But still a question of vital importance. Towards the end of last season the club banned food i.e. large whale & chips from the Fish House, being taken into the ground, but then relented after 1 match IIRC. However it was stated, not for the 1st time, that only...

    Rafa Should Sign Owen

    Today, more than ever, we need to understand the importance of recycling. We live in a world of diminishing resources, held together by the discredited remains of unbridled capitalism. Only through use and re-use of our assets, can we live greener, happier lives. All the more reason, therefore...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Spencer Prior

    Four places (I think) left to fill and next up is Spencer Prior, albeit a day late in Ron Martin style. -------------------------------------------------- Separated by over a decade, Spencer Prior had two very different careers with Southend. Either would be sufficient to get him in the Hall of...

    Support at Huddersfield....

    Had yet anothger enjoyable away day with the Blues yesterday in West Yorkshire, and thought the performance, and result, were absolutely top notch. However, just curious - I can honestly never remember going to an away game where the atmosphere was so quiet - it was, literally, awful...

    I think we can safely say.....

    .... The players are finally realising we're in with a chance of the unthinkable!! First time this season, they looked like a team who knew the importance of that victory, and the ridiculously tight margins of error we're working in!!.... That second half was a combination of complacency...

    Tonight - Please do your bit!

    A lively and supportive atmosphere is of paramount importance tonight, to help the lads keep the play-off dream alive. Let's have no more of this TBV didn't do this/didn't do that, East/South stand dont sing crap. If every single one of you does your bit and backs the team for 90 minutes, no...

    Had a super game again tonight, said he should have been MOTM and so he rightfully was. I think his importance to the team is very under-rated. Well done Mildy. Stevo, do you hate Col U?

    Absolutely Furious!

    I have, somehow, managed to remain relatively calm and reserved over the last few weeks, but tonight's events have left me spitting teeth with rage. Even with a full strength side, you would expect it to be a tough match at Leeds, but to turn up at one of the strongest sides in the league with...

    Shrimpers Sing Their Way To Success

    It was all for nothing. I've worked long and hard over the last 18 months to build some kind of credibility with the UK press pack and on Saturday afternoon I ruined it all by going absolutely mental at Stamford Bridge. It's not the done thing to celebrate a goal in the press box, but wild...

    Irate Ian has had his questions, J has had his meeting and Cricko seems to eavesdrop the lot, so I'm feeling a little left out.... In all seriousness, I think there are a number of pertinent questions still to be asked regarding the development of the new stadium which directly impact on the...

    Claude Makelele

    When Roman Abramovich first pumped Chelsea full of roubles in 2003, it sparked a frenzied shopping spree that would have put Coleen Rooney to shame. Hundreds of millions of pounds were splashed out on an array of talent, but I very much doubt if any of it was put to better use than the £16.8m...
