    Securing The Future, Letting Go Of The Past

    It’s been an emotional day. Well, it’s been an emotional day for you guys anyway. I spent the morning frantically trying to make Chelsea’s routine victory over Olympiakos sound interesting and I didn’t even know that the new stadium had been approved until Cricko phoned me up and told me. For me...

    Who's that big chap up front causing problems...

    I asked my friends ....with the two wristbands! :eek: Yes, ladies and gentlemen, Drewe Broughton impressed me with his strength and hold-up play at the weekend in what I can only assume is a condition known as "managerial capture". Peterborough were shocking though and Wrexham should...

    Just a thought

    Everyone seems to want a striker but DO WE ACTUALLY CREATE ENOUGH CHANCES, take the yeovil game for example, did hooper miss any good chances WAS HE SET UP as it were, did harrold miss any easy headers resulting from great crosses, I would say no, as has been the story for parts of this...

    Southend scoreboard on Baker & Kelly

    Just caught up with the latest Baker and Kelly podcast and they're asking for fans to send in parts of their teams grounds that could form a new stadium. I was really pleased to hear an email was read out having been sent in by Matthew Weir, nominating our own beloved scoreboard. Great...

    ITV Carling Cup

    I can't have been the only one who tune to ITV to catch the highlights of this weeks Carling Cup action, I also can't be the only one who is p155ed of with the ****e that was on offer. It was an utter **** take, not that this matters much to me but the opening thingy was just The Championship...
  8. Few points from last nights game

    Bradders and McDonald looked like a decent combo upfront and linked well together in parts. I hope these 2 start against Leeds! Well done for the hatrick Bradders hopefully his confidence should be sky high! For the Che Wilson haters, he was excellent last night. Solid defending and didnt give...

    Fitness Levels

    With the game going into extra time last night it was a chance to see how fit our players really are, and I have to say that IMO we looked in good shape. I know that these guys are professional footballers and they should be expected to be able to run around for 90+ minutes, but a number of...
  10. Realism

    As a Blues fan for the past 24 years (1st game was against Scunthorpe Utd, when a certain Ian Botham Played for them), I have never, since the creation of this site, felt like contributing to a topic as much as I do now. It goes beyond belief that the people who were slagging off Freddy for...

    Doctor Who

    I'm not going to use this forum as an excuse to launch into a tirade about my favourite programme of all time, as I've really really enjoyed having it back. BUT I'm worried what direction it's going in. The last series was possibly the best one yet overall, but Russell T Davies (the head writer...
  12. My Views on the ins/outs needed part 1

    After a season of many ups and many downs (more downs than ups!) it has been proved that we're simply not good enough to be at this level. There are some players that are good enough but there are also players that arnt good enough. These Are my views on the players from this season...

    Report on Rochford Council meeting

    There is a very good report on the historic Rochford Council meeting at the Rochford Lib Dem web page (http://onlinefocus.org/): We knew it was going to be a pretty unusual evening when we heard that fans were hiring coaches to bring them from Southend to the match , er, committee meeting. Some...

  16. Roots Hall

    Does anybody know approximately how many seats there were in Roots Hall in 1992-93 and the 1994-95? I think that there were still parts of the ground that were terracing in both seasons, and I'm pretty sure that some seats were installed between those two seasons. And what season did the...

    Tony Blair

    While walking down the street one day, Tony Blair is tragically hit by a truck and killed. His soul arrives in Heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance. "Welcome to Heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official...

    Extras

    It does seem that Ricky Gervais' flavour of the month/year status has allowed him to get away with this self-indulgent rubbish. I was a big fan of "The Office" - apart from the final Xmas special (which was obviously the forerunner of what was to come). The first series of...
  20. Finding Fellow Shrimpers

    This is really meant for exiled shrimpers in different parts of the country or even abroad, but any feedback much appreciated. Basically I'm at IT student at Bournemouth uni and I've got to do a dissertation for my final year. Like the guy who constructed the scaled model of the new...
