  1. Santas Christmas List?

    Ok, just over a month to christmas :stunned: so, what footballing/Southend United items do you think Santa/or your loved ones will bring you ?? Other than Southend to be securely in the play offs by 25th of December :), I think I'll go for a nice SUFC christmas card, a calender, and either the...

    The Song Remains The Same

    There is a feeling among the journalists who cover Arsenal regularly that, in the event of a calamitous keyboard malfunction, they could probably file their latest match report using a hastily-assembled hybrid of old ones. A quick rummage through 'My Documents', they claim, would deliver all the...

    Instead of Goal line Technology

    As another possible option to Goal line Technology, during the Scotland v San Marino U19 game yesterday they added another 2 refs and positioned them on the goal line just hovering around the 18 yard box line. The players commented after the game about it and seemed in favour, especially the...

    Scolari Glad of 'Ugly' Chelsea

    Don't worry, they can still win ugly. Chelsea may have proved this season that they're capable of playing breathtaking football, but they needed a reprisal of the hard-working, tough-tackling days of Jose Mourinho in order to overturn Roma at Stamford Bridge last night. The Italians arrived in...

    Chelsea Dominant As Villa Crumble

    Crisis? What crisis? Beset by injuries, Chelsea saved their best performance of the season so far for the day when the smart money was on Aston Villa to end that long unbeaten home run of theirs. Luiz Felipe Scolari's walking wounded preserved their record in a magnificent first half before...

    Stockport Game

    Looks like the Stockport County game at Roots Hall on Saturday 11th.Oct. may be in some doubt. Their striker Peter Thompson has been called up to the Northern Ireland squad for their forthcoming World Cup Qualifiers against Slovenia and San Marino. Thompson's inclusion in Nigel Worthington’s...
  9. Ref Watch ... the big match vs Hereford

    After last Saturday when Mr Haines awarded his third penalty against Southend in two matches (two against Clarke; you might think he'd have remembered and not pushed both hands in the back of an opponent!) we have Graham Horwood from Bedfordshire making his third visit to Roots Hall in his short...

    Dimitar Berbatov

    Tottenham fans won't be able to draw much comfort from the news that Manchester United have made an official bid for Dimitar Berbatov, but there is at least one bonus; it might shut Emil Danchev up for a while. Berbatov's dastardly agent has been agitating for a move away from White Hart Lane...

    Fancy a swim?

    If you like doing laps in the swimming pool, you might want to stock up on the energy drinks before diving in to this one. It is more than 1,000 yards long, covers 20 acres, had a 115ft deep end and holds 66 million gallons of water. Yesterday the Guinness Book of Records named the vast pool...

    The Transfer Thread

    To save the X number of threads that inevitably crop up every summer, I figure we can just bung them all in here. Saves bandwidth and all that. So, the first major transfer to note (or one of them) is Giovanni Dos Santos to Tottenham for 8.6m. I've never seen Gio play in real life, but on...

    Sepp Blatter

    You can say what you like about Sepp Blatter, and most people do, but he certainly doesn't lack the courage of his convictions. His proposal that football clubs should limit themselves to just five foreign players by 2012 is going to upset some very powerful people. Not that Blatter cares, of...

    Metal Monday Pt.24

    About as old-school as thrash metal can get, Exodus formed in San Francisco 28 years ago by, among others, the now Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett. Exodus are another metal band that seem to go through multitudes of band members but one thing will always remain and that's the speed and...

    The battle for survival

    The only excitement that comes close to the battle for the Premier League is the fight to merely stay in it for another season. The financial rewards of the top flight are now so vast that relegation is no longer an occupational hazard that can be thrown off with one straight-forward recovery...

    Reserve League Play-Off Final

    Liverpool's senior side may not picked up any silverware this year, but on Wednesday night at Anfield, Gary Ablett's reserve team were on hand to show them how it's done. Having won their regional divisional with room to spare, the youngsters were sent out to face Aston Villa's second string for...
