  1. Scunthorpe on Tuesday

    This is from an Iron fan on another board. Hopefully we can exploit this shortfall in Centre backs. Please drop a few free kicks on the penalty spot on Tuesday night boys! Mighty Iron writes: Have just read on our OS that Byrne and Mirfin will miss Southend then be available for Leeds, and...

    Your Favourite Fighter?

    Following Joe Calzaghe's retirement, it's clear that he will go down as an all time great, not just a British boxing legend, but one of the best fighters of his generation. With this in mind, who's your favourite all time fighter? Are you a fan of the sweet skills of Leonard, Ali and Robinson...

  3. Hatton Vs Malignaggi

    Hatton's first fight under Mayweather Snr and a return to his natural weight. He's looked sluggish and nowhere near as sharp as he can be lately, but hopefully a return to this weight should see him put in a good performance. Malignaggi is quick and talks a good a game, but I just can't see him...

    Shepherd's Bush Shrimper's Scunny Report

    Apologies for the delay with this one. Makes less depressing reading than reports of our humping in Bristol though.... It’s fair to say that the North Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire region is not a happy hunting ground for us Shrimpers. We very rarely seem to pick up points at the lovely...

    Aussie NRL Grand Final - Manly Sea Eagles vs Melbourne Storm

    From Sydney Morning Hearld THE day has come at last. A hundred years after rugby league began, the two best teams of 2008 - and 2007, for that matter - are set for battle. Two cities have a stake in the hostilities between foes whose histories could not be more different. The Manly Sea...

    Robinho. Plays For City. Weird.

    Robinho plays for Manchester City. Robinho. Plays for Manchester City. Go on, say it out loud. It doesn't sound right, does it? Nevertheless, thanks to piles of recently acquired Arab oil money, one of the best footballers in the world will soon be wearing the same sky blue shirt that so...

    The play-offs

    The Premier League may be coming to an end, but the divisions beneath it are just gearing up for their most exciting games. The play-offs start tonight and I'm all of a tremble because my beloved Southend are involved, preparing to battle away for a place in the Championship and a chance to...

    Most embarassing moment as a Shrimper

    Further to the Pub thread "Most toe-curling moment" I thought I'd create a specific one related to your time as a Southend United fan. I've got 3 actually. First one is when I almost fell out of the front row of the South Upper after Mike Marsh's 92nd minute winner against Ipswich in 1996. As...

    Worst School Trip ever.

    Mrs DtS neice is off on a school trip today. This got me thinking back to my school days (Yes I did go to school) and about some of the crap school trips we went on. I think possibly the worst one I ever went on was when I did A-Level Geography - a field trip to Whitby. The trip itself was a...

    Mahers sending off

    Despite our skippers assertions and the inconsistencies in Duguid's account to the referees, I think we should just let this lie. Firstly, the video is inconclusive. All you can clearly make out is Mahers arm being waved. You can't tell whether it hits Duguid or not. The ref and his...
