    Is Martin *that*bad...

    Christ, shrimperzone suicide coming up.... I've begun to take stock of the situation we find ourselves in. Probably because things looked so bleak and I was so angry and frustrated (as are we all no doubt) that i almost gave up completely on the club and in doing so, probably removed the...

    Rusty's X-Files - A Brief SUFC Themed Special

    There's not much to say anymore. Even the most pink-hued of the rose-tinted spectacle brigade are joining us in the realist corner - our beloved club is well and truly ****ed. I'm not going to post a rallying cry - I know we'll get behind the team if by some miracle we're able to get a team...
  3. Vacancy - All At Sea fanzine co-editor / scissors and pritt stick man

    Hoping the mods will allow this. Our co-editor Neddy Beavan has had enough of Ron Martin and has opted to take a well-deserved break from co-editing Southend United's longest-serving fanzine of all time. As a result, All At Sea requires a loyal and enthusiastic individual to help the running...

    Are we that surprised really?

    My first post for a while, have been lurking and reading with interest. Is this the worst state the club has ever been in? Well, I remember the dark days of the 1980's when we were hours from extinction. It was different. I can't remember if it was worse, but it was different. The only...
  5. Thrills, Spills and Unpaid Bills - The League One Review Part One

    So, another season bites the dust and it’s all over bar the fighting at the Wembley mud bath. As ever, ten months of football has served up more twists, turns and travesties than a Mail on Sunday honey trap and hopefully this should spread some light on the season just gone. Norwich Starting...

    Bullies and Bullying

    Now bare with me good readers, this is going somewhere but I want to give it some background first. When I was a kid I was bullied, bad. My first taste of it was at the grand old age of 4 years old at nursery school where a phycotic 5 year old used to attack the entire fraturnity. He would rip...

    Dating Someone Famous

    Anyway, now all the fun of having a huge election has died down, we can get back to more normal rubbish to while away the time with. Now, last week, the more eagle-eyed of you won't have bothered noticing, I didn't log in for around 5 days or so. What I was doing, which has amazed me as much...

    Suggestions for 60th Birthday?

    It's my Dad's 60th soon and I wanted to get him something a bit more decent then some aftershave. Looking for ideas for something we could get him that would be quite memorable. Looking to maybe spend around £500 although he doesn't really pay much attention to value and would just like...
  9. Isn't it about time Scudamore just left?

    Because he's continually making an arse of himself. Doing the usual run through Saturday's columns, this piece caught my eye if not for the incendiary headline: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/article7119988.ece Choice pull-put quotes include: It might not...
  10. Potential new signings for this season

    I know its early and the season hasn't ended yet but to turn my attention away from the pain who would you like to see as a possible realistic signing we could make in the summer? I have found this list of league 1 players out of contract at the end of the season. Could be one or two on...

    Breaking News New Stadium - First Stand Now Built

    Fed up with waiting for Uncle Ron to dig the first sod, we've had a go ourselves and built a stand behind one of our goals on our small footie pitch at home in Suffolk - see pic. To give it that Roots Hall feel I went for stanchions rather than cantalever, and for now its all standing so I...
  12. Tilly on Look East

    A short report and interview with Tilly this morning who sounded very upbeat. Seems to think the hearing today will go well and is aware that we are suffering short term pain for long term gain. Didn't sound like a man ready to chuck the towel in. Feels very confident about the future.

    A Pig 36 Hours

    We all get them, we all have those days when you wish you could turn back the clock and stay in bed but where would be the fun in that. I knew it was coming because I had prior warning that there was no cover for sunday night and I had already been asked to help out. Not a major problem, I...

    Johnstone's Paint Trophy

    Southampton thrashed Carlisle United 4-1 this afternoon. Was a good match in truth with ex shrimper Dan Harding IMO should have been awarded man of the match. As much as Southampton were good, Carlisle United were very poor gifting Southampton 3 of there 4 goals by major mistakes in defence...

    Tron Legacy

    As a kid, I remember this weird video 'Tron' in the corner of the local rental store. I watched it, didn't really get it or like it as a ten year old, and that was that. Except that it wasn't it. For some unknown reason, I found myself repeatedly hiring it out, over and over. Then I found...

    If you were born in the 50's, 60's or 70's

    Doesn't this just some up what it was like growing up and exactly what the kids of today are missing out on? First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us and lived in houses made of asbestos. They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, raw egg products, loads...

    Kris Akabusi Stories

    How do you like my bit of spare time writing ....i wish !! Akabusi scaled the walls of the £756,000 Sussex mansion with all the stealth of a gekko on a Mallorcan shower wall. As luck would have it the window was open. He dropped in and slipped out of his dungerees and let the cool air caress...

    The Wet Head Shave.

    I suffer from dry scalp. I have tried everything on the market, chineses herbal remedies, shampoo's, oils, the lot but nothing makes a blind bit of differance. I would walk into a barbers for a razor cut and the very second my head was touched the entire shop would disappear in a Sibierian...

    Found this on QPR's Messageboard

    Ok, so it was sent to me by someone on QPR's messageboard. I have to say that for the most part of this fan rant, I kind of have to agree! Of course, things are bad at QPR, so you can understand where this guy is coming from, but this is rage I have not witnessed very often!
