  1. Benitez must Battle from the Brink

    Every season after a run of mediocre performances or defeats, some over excited journalist will question one of the big four's title crudentials and, quite rightly, they'll be chastised for doing so. This season, however, Liverpool's season really could be over by this time next weekend. A...

    Appeals Poster

    Ladies & gents I've spent a little time doing a quick SOS- Save Our Southend Utd appeals poster. It's not of a professional standard because time is of the essence here and perhaps something the Trust will look into but please save it to your hard drive, print it off and stick it wherever you...
  3. 450 days later

    So..450 days have passed since full planning was obtained yet not one single brick has been laid,Maybe the recession played a major role BUT if true why add to the cost by including the casino? The council will eventually get peed off as FF becomes larger and larger..Or is it all one cunning...

    Current "right wing" protests against the spread of Islam

    I see the Government are totally out of which with what the majority of the country think yet again... BBC News I was just watching an extended piece on the latest London protest on Sky News and although the undertone of the story was "oh look, it's the same knuckle dragging skinhead element...

    Blimey. We're quite good.

    WAS BILIC RIGHT? HAVE ENGLAND LOST THEIR 'ENGLISHNESS'? Well, if he meant that we no longer play artless, stone-age football, devoid of movement and guile, then he hit the nail on the head. If his idea of 'Englishness', is to canter through games as if the result has already been secured by the...
  6. My take on Revell and Betsy and other things

    I know there are lots of other threads on this but here is my take on it. Revell: I am inclined to believe that he did possibly want out and may have had little future at the club. Bear in mind he wasn't in the starting eleven until very recently and these games may well have been last chance...

    Scunny Risk It All For Promotion

    Irons Run Up Loss To Win Promotion Just read the article above, and I'm so glad we didn't do that. It's true that they're in the CCC next season, but if it hadn't come off it's not the way a club should be run. Also, I realise the loss was only £750,000, and we may well post a larger loss...

    Does anyone else feel we may be going bust??

    Dont ask me why but i have had a sneeky suspiscion for a while now that the club is in financial dire straights. Havent got anything more to back this up other than a hunch here say and things that have been said and are happening. For instance Ron said a while back that we needed 8k average...
  10. Tilson Consulting -

    As many of you know I represent (Sir, tbc) Steve Tilson in his consultantcy role. You may know that recently Steve got the call from one of the larger northern clubs to come and see if he could supply some of the Tilson magic before their season peters out. In particular the manager up there...

    Is it pikey to eat food in a supermarket before you have paid for it.

    Decided to treat Mrs DtS to a nice home cooked meal last night. Went to my local branch of Sainsburys and decided to purchase my produce (Some Squid, Salad and Fizzy Water for those of you that are interested). As I was in there I noticed a woman who was a larger lady and nature had not been...

    Haven't seen this anywhere else yet...... Chairman's Blog What a good day Saturday was and with nothing to play for I thought that the team performed well and remained committed to the cause right to the end. It was also a day to celebrate the success of the Club’s youth policy which, I...

    Where can I buy Carlton Dry?

    Guys and Girls, I need your help. In August, one of my school friends is coming back from Australia for 3 weeks to visit everyone. The last time she was back was 3 years ago, and when she was back we was all drinking corona back then with her. Now I was chatting to her on FB the other day and...

    Breaking News Ron's Blog

    I feel that I should be letting you have my thoughts and feelings about the season now it is effectively at an end but I promised that I would answer all the questions that are put to me and I am continuing to do so. However I will need to bring this to an end soon as it was only meant to span...

    People of SZ... As some of you may know, I'm in the middle of writing an investigative article about the state of the country's youth development schemes, tying in with the larger picture of the nationwide pool of talent. I'm focusing heavily on none other than our own Southend, and have got...

    Rons Blog 12/3/09

    No-one seems to have put it up! So here it is... Last week I touched on the backroom staff at the Club. That is not of course the backroom staff that support the football management but what I would describe as the “engine room” of the Club. I say that because I know whilst all fans will...

    Question Interactive Novel Writing

    Ok, bit of a weird one this. I have here the first 1,500 words of a story, battered out in an afternoon to no distinct end or conclusion. It's a first draft, it hasn't been polished or checked and, critically, it doesn't have a direction. I was thinking of a British version of Lost/Journey To...
