    The 'Stan

    First of all, I'm writing this from my perspective of the last six months, I'm no hero, but plenty of my collegues are. Hopefully no one will think I'm writing this is order to show off, or to earn rep. Indeed, please don't rep me for this at all. I realise I'm probably not the only serviceman...

    West Ham: Know nothing, win nothing fools

    I hate West Ham. Their fans are fickle morons who think their club should be competing for European places, playing beautiful football and in the market for the top players. Curbishley was a realist, he knew that he needed to do whatever it takes to keep a Championship team safe in the...

    The Freddy Eastwood, Wolves Situation...

    Now i know we have a thread in the ex-shrimpers for Freddy, but i thought it would be easier to start a new one to shed some light on Fred's situation up there. Here is some info i have just got on a Wolves messageboard after posting a thread... This is my post; Hi. Southend fan here...
  5. Poker Bad Beats

    First case:- Dealt pocket kings under the gun, raise 3 times BB. Gets called by one other player. Flop comes King rag rag. I check, he goes all in and I call. He shows aces. Turn comes an ace, river comes an ace. :rolleyes: Second case:- Final table down Mint Casino £30 freezeout,chip leader...

    Neville Roach

    Just read in this week's local rag that Neville Roach recently signed for Uxbridge (Southern League Div 1, part of the eighth tier of English football) and has got off to a decent start, scoring four goals in his first three games. Maybe he's found his level at last :rolleyes: Will try and get...

    Mark Gower

    Today i had the misfortune of being at the end of a Mark Gower 4 letter rant! Mark has not been in the best of form this season (some might say he's been s**t) compared to previous seasons anyway. In fact today i heard that he may have caught something from JCR:hilarious: .Today in the 2nd half...

    The BNP in disguise?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7028849.stm This rag-bag, one-issue collective are showing their true "Little Englander" colours, I see.

    Worth checking out?

    Jon Main, of Tonbridge - his agent, Mikkel Beck, formerly of Middlesborough, is touting him to Championship sides, and he has been on trial with Wolves and Norwich. He is on 30-odd goals for the season with about 7 games left. This, from my local rag... The future of Tonbridge Angels hot-shot...

    Less Than Three Days to Ipswich

    ****y bstds Local rag reckons they are superb now after beating hapless Hull. Next it will be 'we can still get to the play offs'. Let's wipe the smile off their faces. As per other threads here, 2,000 fans in unison cheering on the Shrimpers to victory. I'll just love it. Wondering whether...

    Less Than Five Days To Ipswich

    You've guessed the theme by now I suspect. Yokel talk in the rag was of Frances Jeffers who they have just got on loan from wherever he is currently failing. Aparently he did ok coming on as sub but the rag is so biased it is difficult to tell. One goal in 30 games for Mr Jeffers is maybe a...

    Newham Recorder

    They're already in Orient's bad books for the way they reported our promotion day Oxford last year, and now they've come out with this little gem: West Ham If any of you chaps would like to help with the demise of this rag by emailing the Press Complaints Commission, then we'd be most...

    Five go mad in Sunderland. Or have a few beers anyway...

    Here's a review of Saturday in Sunderland, courtesy of Statski.... I think when the fixtures came out at the start of the season the away day trip to Sunderland ranked high upon peoples away games to do. One hell of a way to go for 90 minutes of football but seeing The Shrimpers playing in a...

    How much did you pay to get in at Stoke?

    Thought it was a bit shambolic re the treatment of away fans on Saturday. We all knew (thanks to SZ) that there was a fiver entry offer subject to buying the local rag four times, so possibly a bit of a non-starter for most of us. For once I didn't get my ticket in advance, turned up at the...

    Duncan Jupp

    Just reading my local rag, Tonbridge Echo or something, and there's a huge half page ad for Gilingham's hospitality. This is spoilt somewhat by a rather gurning Juppy in a tux, pointing a revolver, pretending to be James Bond Oh dear
  16. When the Saints really do go marching in...

    AFTER Saturday’s result the local rag down this way had the headline ‘Roots Hall Of Shame’, which made me chuckle. However, things got a whole lot funnier when I read today’s edition. Is losing to Southend really that bad? Man storms studio and turns air blue THE airwaves turned blue when a...

    Apparently its the ref's fault for giving a free-kick on 36 minutes that lost Yeovil the game... West Country Rag

    MAJOR SCAM

    I am posting this to warn you of something that happened to me as I am a victim of the latest scam whilst shopping. This happened at Tesco's store down Prince Avenue in Southend, and it could happen to you. Here's how the scam works: Two good looking 18 year old girls come to your car...

    The Sun

    Ricketts is considering quitting English football after suffering so much racist abuse, says "a source" in the Sun today. "He didn't realise it still went on in England" Nice, balanced view as ever. I'm boycotting the rag once and for all.
  20. Our fans are a disgrace

    Well i am obviously dissapointed at our result saturday as are we all. I will leave the match reviews etc to the likes of FBM. I want to tell you all about my experience in the west stand on saturday. I usually sit with either Grim up north or CI city blue in the east and have done for quite...
