  1. Should Southend get cynical?

    We are by far the most naive team I've seen this season. Every other team is streets ahead of us in doing the little things that helps them win games. Example one Clobbering key opposition players in the opening minutes. Both Norwich and Birmingham had our trainer on three times in the...

  2. Norwich v Southend

    Carrow Road on Boxing Day will always be a bit special for me: it was there back in 1995 that I saw my first ever away win. Gary Jones crouching down at the far post to head in the orange ball at a snow covered Carrow Road. It was only my 27th away game. Sadly Blues' away form since we...

    A well reasoned point..

    I am worried. I am being truthful, i am extremely concerned as to the future of this football club. Mr Tilson, Mr Brush and Mr Eastwood. We the fans owe a lot to these people. Yet i have a niggling worry.. we have so much to thank tilly and brush for, but i am afraid, time is running out. Tilly...

    BLUES SHOW PROMISE IN PRESTON PERFORMANCE This game was always going to be a case of whether the huge morale boost that Tuesdays win gave us would counter the sheer mental and physical fatigue that the players must have suffered after the Man Utd game. The Blues made 3 changes, all enforced...

    The fbm view and ratings

    AGAINST ALL ODDS Years ago, when Southend were regularly plumbing the depths of the division now known as league 2, I used to get some funny looks when people found out I was a season ticket holder at Roots Hall.  “What on earth for?” they used to quip, “Surely you must play ‘Spot the Crowd’...

    HULL HUMBLE HOSTS IN HALLOWEEN HORROR Southend hit rock bottom as they yet again conceded three goals at home to gift fellow strugglers Hull the points on a chilly Halloween evening. In a poor encounter, it was obvious that both sides lacked quality and confidence as the opening exchanges saw...

    Eastwood and Paynter

    Surely, the Eastwood and Payner partnership should be given much more time to develop. It is a match made in the heavens (literally). Freddy was born on 29 October, and is a Scorpio, and Billy on 13 July, and has the astrological sign of Cancer. I paraphrase the website of Australia's...

    My 2 cents

    Firstly, the stadium plans.  Well done RM, and in my opinion the plans look absolutely superb.  There is no way anyone can say that it looks crap - it may not look how they might want a ground to look, but it will be clean, futuristic, spacious and worthy of Championship football.  It may be...

    -5 and counting

    Our current goal difference is -5 along with Barnsley and Parkinsons Hull are -6 If we play with a defensive midfielder sitting in front of the back 4 then we should be able to shore things up. In my mind Efe should take Clarkes place but with Clarke sitting in this defensive midfield postion...

  11. Sodje in for Clarke?

    Thought Peter was poor last night, very poor distribution and caught out of position a lot. Think against Hartson and Phillips we need Efes experience and extra pace as well as his physical presence at set pieces. Last season Efe and AB were an awesome partnership, our season nearly fell apart...

  12. Ricketts

    Listening to Paul Brush on Blues World, he basically says that Ricketts is still struggling with the injury suffered during pre season and it does not sound like we will see him in the first team squad for at least another month. He went off after complaining of soreness around the achiles area...

  13. A lack of concentration or height?

    Anyone else share my concerns about the lack of height in our side when defending set pieces. I know Peter Clarke and Barrett are both excellent players and give everything but Clarke is only 6ft and Barrett is about 5ft 11. Let's face it, unless they use Italian tactics by pulling a few...

    Ben Thatcher

    Personally I think he should be charged by the police with agrivated assualt. I don't care if it was on a football pitch during a game and physical contact should be expected. It was intentional, he knew exactly what he was doing and as such should also be banned from the game for the whole...

  15. Robbshrimps Match Ratings

    Good performance today overall, lacked alot in the air today though but they were alot more physical side than most with their presence. Anyhow my ratings for the players today : Flahavan : 8 : Solid performance again from Flahavan showed safe hands each time the ball was in the danger area...

  16. Why have things gone wrong?

    1. Missing Sodje and Prior With one of these two in we clean up everything in the air. They are strong, experienced defenders who organise our defence and make us a much more physical side. They protect a vulnerable Flahavan. The statistics pretty much say it all. Sodje played 11 games (plus...

    Barnsley OS Report

    Sounds like the ref was lucky to escape with his life if all the Barnsley fans think the same way.  I love it when the reports are totally biased on the official sites.  The way it reads, we just have physical intimidation whilst they have slick, flowing football - Barnsley OS Report My heart...

  18. Roscoe D'Sane

    Former Southend and Aldershot striker Roscoe D'Sane, 25, has joined Ryman League side Wealdstone following an 18-month battle with injury. He was building a decent reputation for himself in conference before his injuries! However he never had the physical presence to really make in an...

    NICE SCORE, SHAME ABOUT THE GAME Southend returned to the top of league one tonight after a professional but spluttering display against a team surely destined for league 2 if not extinction. The three points were, to be honest, courtesy of a first half mugging and Rotherhams total ineptitude...
