    Thanks for all your help and ideas on this feature, guys. You may recognise a few phrases here and there. This, I believe was the first article published in a national broadsheet (Eire) that was co-written by the Southend Messageboard. Scott Parker (Chelsea – Newcastle, £6.5 million, June)...

    SALTER STRIKES SEE ROBINS CLOSE GAP Former Southend United striker Mark Salter netted a quick-fire brace in the second period to hand the Robins another important three points. The result at Mill Road on Saturday was made even more significant by the fact that leaders Bideford drew 0-0 at home...

    Food for Thought?

    Firstly, due to work commitments, I could not make the short(ish) trip to Rushden last night, which in hindsight, may have been a good thing, as it wont tarnish the memories of last season's trip there.... Wonderful pasties and super result!! Anyway, I may be way off beam here, but...
  4. Racing Post

    From today's Racing Post. Nice to see that he went to see us on Sunday too.... "ANDY KING has been on crutches with a foot injury for the past week and Southend can make life even more painful for the Swindon manager. The 9-4 about Southend recording a third straight success is too big if...

    .... secured a point for Grays in a 1-1 draw at home to York City. Wonder if York can believe they are playing Grays away when only a few seasons ago they were a division 2 outfit.

    The right stuff

    In my 37 years of following SUFC, there have been two distinct periods where the club has gone in for "quality" players on good money.  On each occasion the management were applauded for showing great ambition... and each occasion ended in absolute disaster and nearly killed the club we love...

    Someone to consider?

    Well, I know I'm waging a one-man campaign about this particular young man, but I did notice this on Sky Sports this morning: <span style='color:blue'>League Two outfit Bury continue to plan for next season by securing the signature of Allan Smart. With strikers Chris Porter and Colin...

    Club Shop Gear

    On a slightly different note to the fervent discussion of Sunday&#39;s match against the cobblers... I&#39;m thinking of purchasing a new outfit from the wonderful selection in the online club shop for the sunny(ish) weather here in lovely Berkshire... but can&#39;t decide between the &#39;Sky...
  10. Calderwood Confident

    Colin Calderwood has warned play-off opponents Southend that Northampton are a much stronger outfit than they were the last time the sides met. The Cobblers lost both league games against the Shrimpers this season, as well as an LDV Vans Trophy clash, but the former Scotland international is...

    COCA-COLA LEAGUE TWO UPS AND DOWN By Ross Heppenstall, PA Sport A quartet of clubs harbour hopes of being promoted from League Two as champions this weekend - but not one of them is even guaranteed to go up automatically. Here, the Press Association looks at the games left, the key men and the...
  12. What the papers say

    Telegraph "Southend were the sharper outfit for much of the game but despite an impressive show from Freddy Eastwood, signed from Grays Athletic, they had to swallow their second successive defeat in the LDV final." Times "Despite a record 17 matches unbeaten, Southend were a tad static and...

    the fbm view and ratings

    It&#39;s difficult to know exactly where to start. Was the truly appalling refereeing decision that cost us a clear penalty to blame for us dropping 2 points at the Hall? Or was it Bentleys double miss in the last few minutes followed by Pettefers air shot? Or was it the fact that we were...
  16. The Blues are going up&#33;

    What a stonking day at Aggbrough, it doesn&#39;t get much better. Terrific gutsy showing in the last ten minutes to finally get the win we should have sown up much earlier. But then if we had sown it up earlier we would have missed out on the fantastic ending. We were by far the better team...

    Chester strengthening up for Friday

    Todays Daily Post contains the following article, posted on a Chester Site; This could either work for us or against us. On the plus side it looks like they will have 2 and possibly 3 new faces that wouldn&#39;t have had time to gel with their team mates, so as a team they will be less than...

    Thoughts

    As I&#39;m pretty fed up on the whole tonight I might as well get it out of my system&#33; How did the players let themselves get stage fright yet again? For the first 10 minutes or so we looked a very good outfit, we played it around well and then the first goal killed us completely. Once...
