  1. The Flying Scotsman

    Administration - Yes or No?

    There's a lot of random jibber jabber going on here, and it's becoming very difficult to work out what is fact and what is rumour etc etc etc So it's about time we had a poll to see what people actually think. Place your bets now. Personally I'm optimistic. RM hasn't worked as hard on things...

    85 full time staff??????

    Heard a rumour last night that we have 85 full time staff at the club and got me thinking does a club our size need this? Obviously some of the lowest earners will lose their job IF we go into administration unfortunatly(bar staff,call centre etc),the people at the bottom always seem to be...

  3. Yet Another Rumour

    Here is something that I heard from a reliable source last night. Lee Barnard is going out on loan this week to Coventry with a guaranteed sale in January. This is where part of the tax money owed is coming from. I do not post much as I think a lot of what is said on here is just hot air but...

    Will this turn out to be...

    ...another storm in a Shrimperzone tea cup? Here we are again... 2 days before the end of the club, we're going into administration, the clubs been mismanaged, what a load of bloody tripe that comes from the mouths of some (and not who you might think I mean)... Jesus we all love to react don't...

    A Bit of Fun Is Ron Leaving/Selling?

    I've heard an odd rumour of a £5 buyout with all debts cleared, Stadium go-ahead and a multi million pound transfer kitty. Anyone heard anything similar?

  6. Question Is Southend screwed?

    I was wondering if the rumour are true that southend are screwed now? What going to happen with the Stadium? ? Who is the fault of this? Shall we get rid of Geoffery King and Ron Martin? Will there be anyone who is interested to take over? I hope someone from Middle East will take over like...

  7. Ref Watch .... Kettle

    Tomorrow night's match sees the return to Roots Hall of the loose cannon that is Trevor Kettle. Or, rather, Squadron Leader Tervor Kettle based at RAF Cottesmore at Oakham in Rutland. This is his 7th season as a League referee and his matches have been littered with controversy and condemnation...

    Why are transfers so hard to conclude in the modern era and where does it leave us?

    As it's all doom and gloom around here (perhaps a little unsurprisingly) I thought a topic to discuss in the meantime might be in order. So I thought we could discuss WHY transfers are so hard to conclude nowadays. Here's my lot: For a start, I think it's due to escalated prices. The top teams...

    Heartless ******* !

  10. A Bit of Fun Stobart rumours

    To put this to bed here is Ron's reply to my email. John, I can confirm unequivocably that Stobart, or anyone else for that matter, is NOT "taking over the Club". Neither have I been approached. I have a significant majority shareholding in the Club and own 100% of its parent. I am NOT...

  11. Dougie Freedman

    There's a rumour up in Scotland that we, Hamilton Accies, have signed/ are on the verge of signing Dougie Freedman. A few questions though: He is still conracted wit Southend, right? Presuming he is, do you think you will be wanting a fee for him? If so, how much? Do you think he is capable of...

  12. Portsmouth manager....

    Just heard a rumour that Maradona is being lined up as the new Portsmouth manger.....

  13. Claude Davis

    Don't shoot the messenger all. Maybe it isn't even worth a discussion. As opposed to saying we will or we want to sign him would it be realistic of Derby's central defender Claude Davis to sign for Southend United? He is still playing international football for Jamaica. Although, Southend love...

    A Bit of Fun Grant to Posh

    No source apart from a Peterborough fan on another forum recons someone had mentioned it as a rumour on one of their forums.
  16. Ron Manager

    Lloyd Owusu

    Just remind me lads and lasses - Lloyd Owusu is possibly one of the worst lumps of a striker we've come up against in recent years isn't he? Just that there's a rumour he's signing for Adelaide over here in the A-League and I've been telling people how awful he is. Can anyone assure me my...

    Dorian possibly going to newcastle????

    don't shoot the messenger here as i don't even know if i believe this rumour myself. but i have been told by someone very high up at the club that alan shearer was in the directors box at the leicester game watching dorian with a strong interest in signing him in the summer. would have thought...

    Rumours Regarding Southampton FC

    There is a rumour going around that Southampton will be resigning from the league at the end of the season and will be applying to play in the Blue Square Conference for 2009/10. This I suppose is better in the long run than the alternative of going under completely. If this is true, it is a...

  19. Kirk Hudson

    Now before we get started this is by no means a rumour mill, but a player i would like to see us go for. He is a local lad and had a trial a few years back but was not taken on. Since then he has been at aldershot and helped them to promotion and won young player of the year for the whole...

    Southamption to go into administration

    That's the rumour going around today. There'll be a press conference tomorrow supposedly. Which will put them on 16 points if they get deducted 10, and Charlton on 19 with several team on 27+. A very strong chance we'll have two more tasty away ties next season if / when we stay up.
