    Manchester United v Barcelona

    Manchester United take on Barcelona tonight in what will certainly be the purist's choice of Champions League semi-finals. These are two teams packed full of world class players and devoted to playing the game in adventurous, swashbuckling fashion Unfortunately, only one of them is currently...

    The Power of RC Junior!

    I am starting to realise little RC Junior, now only 4 months old, has extremely strong magical powers!! He has now witnessed 11 games this season, in his short 4 months in this world, and we are yet to taste defeat - including the dramatic late win at Carlisle on Saturday. To back this up...

    Fergie Should Have Stayed Quiet

    You would think that Sir Alex Ferguson would know better, wouldn’t you? The last time he announced retirement plans, before the start of the 2001/02 season, Manchester United completely lost their focus and slumped like a Tottenham player at closing time. Between October and December of that...

    England Pass Test...Eventually

    They call Fabio Capello, ‘the hardman of Italian football’ and on Thursday morning he showed us all why. The iconoclastic boss had already demonstrated that there are no longer grazing rights here for sacred cows by refusing to give David Beckham a mercy-cap, but he went on to shatter egos and...

  6. Ref Watch ..... x 2

    After the predicted antics from Danny McDreadful at Orient, what do the next two matches bring in the way of officials? I'm doing these two together as they are in many ways very similar. Both are in their first season as a League referee, both have refereed Southend once before. Both are quite...

  7. Ref watch .. Bournemouth

    After the fun and games with Mr Penton's first red card of the season and the performances of the assistants we move on to a referee who has already shown NINE red cards this season. Paul Melin referees a Bournemouth v Southend match for the second year running. Last year's was the League Cup...

    Possiblity of Championship Football Next Season??

    QUEENS Park Rangers face being relegated from the Championship or handicapped with a severe points deduction when the Football League board meet on Thursday. The League is furious that QPR seriously breached their rules by entering into an illegal loan agreement with League One Oldham. They...

    A nice cup of wee

    One of my wifes friends who i call "the witch" (the friend, not the wife) is seriously into new age stuff, herbal stuff, mediums, ghosts etc. She has become increasingly wierd over the last year after joining a group run by an old bloke (about 70) with a pony tail who looks a bit like gandalf...

    Former Policemen

    Why can't they leave it alone? There are at least three that live down my road, and they are always snooping about, and being nosey. One continually walks his dog up and down my road, and every morning when I am getting in my car to go to work he leers at me, making me feel guilty about doing...

  11. Hungarian International "has set his heart on a move to Southend"

    Suits

    So last night on the train i saw a guy (Not Austin Powers) wearing an Electric Blue Suit. I think its wrong, whereas i seem to have a mixed response in the office. What colour suit is most acceptable in the office?

    Did we ever really want to stay up?

    Speaking to different people who know people within the SUFC set up, there feels like that there is something strange going on, but no-one can quite put their finger on it. Much was made at the beginning of the season that our wages had gone up by more than £1M and that it was a struggle...

  14. Any chance of having the North Bank back before we move ?

    Is it possible, that for the start of 2007/8 until we move, we can claim the North Bank back ? Away fans can be accomodated in the South and Roots Hall can go out the way it came in, with the more vocal element returning to their spirtual home. This would certainly be easy if, god forbid we...

    Is KP's injury a blessing in disguise?

    England seem to have been playing cricket non-stop more or less for a year. Pakistan and India are gruelling tours, but they were followed up with series immediately against Sri Lanka and Pakistan at home. As soon as the tests end they play ODIs. No sooner than the season ended then they were...

    Robert Mugabe

    In short our beloved Prime Minister took this country to war against Iraq, first with the pretence of WMD and once that had been debunked it was to rid the planet of a menace and a man subsequently found guilty of genocide against his own people. Robert Mugabe has systematically taken his...

  17. A plea…

    I can't face a 'big' quarter-final draw. If it's any of the big Prem boys at home I just hope and pray that the powers that be down at the Hall allow us season ticket holders in exile the chance to buy a ticket over the phone.

    A few thoughts...

    I'll start by saying that I knew when we were promoted that there would be days like yesterday, and anyone who didn't realise that was naive to say the least in my opinion. Cardiff looked a class outfit who soundly outplayed us, just as they have most sides that they've met this...

    Once more, the powers that be were on hand to stop people standing up within the ground. Whilst we all appreciate the fact that the ground is an all seater stadium and we should all be sitting down, the "lets look for easy targets" section of the stewards did their normal thing. I sit...
