    England v Bermuda

    I see the legendary Dwayne Leverock has got England in a spot of trouble in their warm-up game.... see a photo of the legend .... although possibly not as much trouble as South Africa are in against Ireland...
  3. Freddy Eastwood v Billy Sharp

    Don't know how to post a poll on this mb. Noticed that Billy Sharp is again top of the league 1 goalscoring charts. So, simple question, who's better? Similar kind of players, they shared the league 1 golden boot last season. We went up and Fred's scoring record in the Championship has been...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 5

    “Southend United Football Club needs new energy and direction. With careful financial planning and professional management there is no doubt in our minds that the club is geared for greater things.” So read a statement released by Martin Dawn plc in November 1998 just after they had secured a...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 3

    "There will be no stadium at Fossetts Farm and the future of the football club remains at Roots Hall." A year after being ousted from position of chairman at Southend United, John Main returned to warn fans that a new stadium was merely a pipe-dream. His words, posted on a Southend United...

    Ruth Kelly - Would You?

    I thought after True Blue mentioned it, it was worth a Dave the Shrimper style poll. If the rubber stamping of the stadium depended on it, would you?.....

    The View from Spain

    As the cork from a bottle of cava struck the ceiling and rebounded into a clutch of Man Ure fans bonding in quiet contemplation in one corner of the bar, someone, I don't know who, approached me, shook my hand with hearty congratulation and uttered: "how the **** are you lot bottom of...
  8. If we are going to get out of this

    Those of you who are used to my posts will know that I hate negative posts and knee jerk reactions to things. The problem with football is it is so emotive that there is rarely any middle ground in peoples attitudes towards their team. It is always "world beaters" or "sack the...

Nice bloke if not a little weird. had a chat about a few players we had shared....Tes was great for them and there best player ever - he played at the back a lot as he was imense there. Che he said was a good sloid...

    Nelly Furtado

    Today Metro called Nelly a stunner. Now for me she is better than some celebs but I really dont think she is that fit compared with a load of other singers. If she worked in my office then she would look great but thats as far as it goes for me What do you boys reckon?

    Hull, Hell And Happiness

    18 hours of hell, 1 moment of ecstasy ..... 4.00pm - get up from bed (I work nights), showered, breakfasted, watch greedy tart crying because she only won a tenner on Deal Or Sod Off, Noel. 5.00pm - can't afford the bus fare to Billericay station, where Chipper is being dropped off from...

    My visit to the Doctors

    Firstly, I apologise in advance for sharing this with you (you may feel it too much information!). However, I now feel I know, in a virtual sense, you all on here. Indeed, for what I am about to shar e with you, I could say that I have shared the SZ urinal with you with DtS one side...
  13. Oh dear......

    .....so Harrold has signed. All I can say is when I was on the line down at Harlow Town 5 or 6 times and he was playing for them he was absolute toilet - and I believe its a view shared by the vast majority of fans from his previous clubs. What really worries me is what we're going to be...

    If you have any Southend United related photographs to share, or would like to look at those shared by others, please hop over to the Southend United group on Flickr.
  16. Wow!

    The Aussies posted a mammoth 434-4 (Ponting 164 off 105 balls) after their 50 overs, beating the previous biggest ODI score by 39 runs. Now then, you'd think that would be enough to secure the match and series and after losing Dippenaar at just 3-1 it looked that way. However, Gibbs and...

    Barrett's Birthday Cake Banter

    Adam Barrett: Another of the traditions at the club is that when it's your birthday you have to bring in cream cakes for all the boys. Last year Mark Bentley brought in the worst cakes ever, there weren't enough to be shared around and you had break them all in half to make sure...

    The fbm view and ratings

    2005 came to an end at the Hall with a game against Bournemouth, who's first match in 8 days should have given them a distinct fitness advantage over Blues injury hit squad. For the first 20 minutes it showed as well, with Blues midfield looking overrun and Bournemouths full backs staying...
  19. Telegraph Report

    There really is more to Southend than the pier, jellied eels and white stilettos," insisted Southend United's centre-half, Adam Barrett, as he shared Football Focus reporting duties with Garth Crooks on Saturday. It was an overdue re-branding attempt on the back of the team's excellent start...
