    AGAINST ALL ODDS Years ago, when Southend were regularly plumbing the depths of the division now known as league 2, I used to get some funny looks when people found out I was a season ticket holder at Roots Hall.  “What on earth for?” they used to quip, “Surely you must play ‘Spot the Crowd’...

    Last night's choice of kit

    Anybody in the know care to enlighten me why we wore the red kit last night? Last time I checked all navy didn't clash with all white! Still if it changed the luck, here's hoping it will get another airing on Saturday. Also, for kit-spotters like me, did anybody else notice we...

  5. Coventry Game

    I was impressed with a much improved display this week.  The lads fought and battled hard, and had more desire than they showed in the Cardiff game.  If they pull up their socks and continue to play like that, results will come. Didn't think much of Coventry and don't expect them to be...

    JCR

    How long are we gonna keep kidding ourselves that he should be in the team? Lets face it, he has been given the ball no end of times this season, but has anyone actually seen a decent cross? or indeed anything productive? Given, i think he does work his socks off by chasing back when the ball...

    Office Loser

    You know what its like when your at work - You always get one person at work who is a complete lost it. The sort of person that is destined to spend their life living in a cave as they cant cope with human contact. My one from memory is a bloke called Darren.He supported Liverpool but never...

    I live in Leigh but work in Chelmsford so not surprisingly no one really shares my passion for the blues at work. Over the past couple of weeks I have been getting a lot of stick about us ‘bottling it’ at the last minute with home defeats from the Gills and Donny. My boss was convinced we...

    Are you Henry in disguise?

    He plays like Henry, wears his socks like Henry and wears the same boots as Henry and from his performance today, he played like Henry. How fookin good is Freddy Eastwood?? The way he creates a goal out of nothing and the way he can just spped past 3 defenders with ease is unbelievable!!

    Grim down south - a frozen match report

    Not bad, just not great So so cold, snow at some points. The goals like the snow came in a flurry, Guttridge's header and Gowers class finish coming minutes apart. Sodje is a class player, showing almost arrogance in some of his defending, his positioning is excellent as is his heading...

  16. Blackpool

    Quick points: Blackpool fans were great, had a good chat with some of them before and after the game. They are being screwed by Oyston who won't sell up to a consortium with cash to spend. Blackpool is a dirty, rusty, peeling, faded craphole of a town it makes Southend look prosperous and...

    I read in the echo earlier this week, Gower was pleading "Give me time to come good". Now i know i'm just waiting for the other 9 or 10 players on the pitch to join him. Gower gave it his all for the 70 minutes he played today and showed some promise as a more than capable winger...

    I have accused Wayne previously, but as i type this, we have scored three goals this season, he has scored 1, and set up the other 2, and has worked his socks off in both games. Keep it up Wayne

  20. Managers making their transfer targets public

    Just a few thoughts on all of the latest 'Players refusing to sign their new contract' news. I think we should wait and see what Flavs, Dudfield, Che, Nicky and Jay do re their contracts, before we get too worked up about whether they will or won't sign. It would be somewhat ironic if a player...
