    Question So, no worries at all about today then?

    There appears to be a general consensus of opinion that the panic is now over and the money owed will be paid today? Is there any actual evidence of this? Just seems funny that after all the panic leading up to Wednesday we now seem to all be fairly chilled out and assuming things are going to...
  2. What Becomes of the Broke and Shafted

    Someone great once said that Football isn't a matter of life or death, it's much more than that. Which would explain the pain felt by those when their football club is ripped away from them. As a Southend United supporter, I've had the good grace of never witnessing non-league football and...

    Proactive action to save Southend United F.C.

    Let me start off by saying that I'm not looking to excuse the situation that the club finds itself in in any way shape or form. Even in a best case scenario, with the club agreeing a payment plan with HMRC and being able to continue operating in relative normality, it's axiomatic that steps must...

    Perez is Real-y Wrong

    Fresh from capturing the signatures of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, Florentino Perez is now bent on global domination, according to reports in Spanish football newspaper, AS. It has been claimed that the Real Madrid President is rapidly drawing up plans to shift his club's kick-off times from...

    A bit of perspective

    You've got to say the natives are getting restless are as Southend fans are concerned over the past few weeks and I'm sure a lot of this is due to the relative recent successes that T&B (& RM as well in certain areas don't forget) have brought to our club. However, just been reading the...

    Confed Cup

    Following on from the USAs impressive victory over Spain last night, tuned into South Africa V Brazil just now with about 75 minutes gone and the score nil nil. Managed to get 13/8 on Brazil to win. Cheers Danny Alves. Fiver on that became £13 something. Easy money. Anyway, seeing as theres...

    Fancy Signature - Help!

    I am sure this is a query which others may have asked before but having looked at past threads I could'nt quite find the answer - as a relative newcomer to the Zone and not being a great techno person, I would be grateful if anyone could tell me how to get the fancy picture signatures - I must...

    Where the season slipped up

    Despite the periodic comments regarding Tilly being tactically inept / not knowing what he's doing etc, if you look back at this season the only reason we're not again in the play offs, is an 8 week period over nov and dec. This is the period 1) after the initial loans of sawyer / kanu /...
  10. Breaking News Ron's blog 03/03/09

    I feel there are more issues I would like to share with supporters in relation to football matters, which includes acknowledging the very capable backroom staff who get little credit for maintaining a well oiled operation. That topic will be on another agenda as many fans’ only point of contact...
  11. Breaking News Ron's blog 24/02/09

    Whilst the rest of us were watching the match, Ron was emailing us his latest thoughts: I want to begin this week by thanking all our supporters who were able to attend the match at Colchester this weekend. The 1800 or so who made the journey across Essex showed, once again, what passion is...

    Charlie Mulgrew

    My laddo and I had the pleasure of watching Heart of Midlothian v Aberdeen last weekend. I can safely say it was the best game we've seen all season. Crunching tackles, superb goals, and both teams going for it. Terrific stuff from beginning to end. The first half an hour was all Aberdeen...
  13. Zone Update Ron's Blog-17-02-09

    Chairman's Blog This week’s topic – Youth Development – is one of my favourites. This is probably in recognition that the Club’s advancement must be from organic growth. Over the last couple of weeks I have talked about player purchase and the increased structure that we have, and are...

    Happy Birthday BLUEBLOOD Junior

    My son and heir is 9 today (god, that makes me feel old :'() Here's hoping a thread dedicated to you will make up for the relative shortage of presents ... Trips to MK Dons, Chelsea x2 and Stockport has seen to that as these trips don't pay for themselves unfortunately (yeah right) So anyway...

    Supporting a club like Southend United

    As I sat high up in the Shed End at Stamford Bridge enjoying our moment in the sun on the greyest of winter days, soaking up the Blue Voice inspired atmosphere, taking in the flag-waving travelling Shrimper army bedecked in yellow and coping with the perforation of my ear-drums from an incessant...

    Fancy a flutter only 3 quid

    After the relative success/failure of the ITV Celebrity sweepstake, I wondered if anyone is up for another. We are currently 13th in the table. If Tilly does well in the window we could go up. If we lose a few games we could be battling relegation so its almost impossible to predict where we...

    Horizon is on TV at the moment discussing "Time..I am finding their views quiet Bizarre..They are of course being relative to our World, but time as an issue is just something we created to tell the Day from Night and to bring a system to peoples lives....Time per sa overall IMO does not exist...

    I'm a celebrity to drop bushtucker challenge and just go with the titties

    ITV show I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here is to drop its team challenge rounds so that it can focus on lots of wet tits. Producers say from next year the show will be overhauled to bring together 12 medium to large breasted celebrities who will spend six weeks having bikini-clad showers...

    Barton Pushes His Luck

    Sorry chaps, forgot to upload this last night... Well, that didn't take long, did it? Just one week after his composed, match-winning performance against West Bromwich Albion, the halo above Joey Barton's head began to slip. Like all the best horror films, the metamorphosis from man to beast...
