  1. Spinner

    Good luck in Oz and thanks for all the memories.
  2. Southampton Shrimper

    Just got back...

    Just got back after today's game. We started really well and were deserving of our lead - AB, what a hero! But Saints eventually showed that they were the better team. The last three goals that we conceded didn't really matter one bit, by that time the entire Southend section were on their...
  3. Luton -Questions/Observations

    Did anyone notice Sodje did not change out of his training shorts and looked disintersted throughout? Very negative body language from him. Where was Harrold? Surely Spinner's lime green boys were worn for a laugh? good selection of fancy dress from the Luton fans.

    All time Essex One Day XI

    Taking the best XI theory one stage further, I wouldn't mind seeing this lot represnting Essex. Graham Gooch Mark Waugh Keith Fletcher (c) Andy Flower (w) Ronnie Irani Barry Knight Keith Boyce Derek Pringle Stuart Turner Ray East John Lever Mark Waugh just got the vote over Ken McEwan & Stewie...
  5. last game @ the hall this weekend

    ok, so i think its fair to say its gonna be fred's last game for us this weekend and of course spinner. but, realisticly, who else will play their last game for the shrimpers @ roots hall saturday?

    Spencer Prior

    Spinner will be making his last circuit of the Roots Hall pitch on Saturday and whilst all the attention is likely to surround Fred , lets not forget one of the best servants this club has ever had . No doubt that he deserves the maximum possible send off on Saturday

    Stiffs Loose

    Went to watch the reserves this afternoon, lost 3-0 to Norwich apart from the 1st 10mins of the first half we looked awful. The senior players who were out there (Sodje, Hunt, Lawson, Harold) looked uninterested and already on holiday. Quick mention to Spinner the true pro still played like...

    End of Season Report (Slightly early version)

    Just thought I would cast my eye over the playing squad from this year and give my views. Flahaven - An OK season from the wee one, if a little inconsistant. Has made a number of uncharataristic mistakes (Wolves away, Barnsley home, Hull away), however has also put in some blinding...

    Danny Granville

    Daily Star are reporting that us & Bristol City are interested in signing Danny Granville in the summer - as per the BBC Sport Gossip column today. Probably just paper talk to be honest, although with Spinner out of the door it would be good to have an experienced versatile defender. Oh & yes...
  10. Battrick pops

    3 for me today, but still missing one for my 20yo spinner who has now gone 15 weeks since his last pop. Phillip Evelyn (924822) RH Batsman, RH Spin Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, energetic A cautious player with feeble leadership skills and worthless experience. Plays...
  11. Yorkshire Blue

    Sheffield Wednesday 3 Southend 2

    Another game, another defeat. But this was a completely different game to the defeats at Sunderland, when we were simply outclassed by a quality team, and the home game against Palace, where both teams played poorly but Palace snatched victory. We started brightly with Maher releasing Foran...
  12. SZ BT Cup Preview - Part 2.

    GROUP D Sledge_Whites (managed by Sledge_1980) Current Form - Top of VI.120 with a 100% record, lst in the 1st round of the Cup though. One to watch - Oz Van dyk. West Indian spinner who has taken 18 wickets at the incredible average of 5.06, which included career best figures of 7-38...
  13. SZ BT Cup - Preview

    With this seasons SZ BT Cup starting on Sunday, I thought I would try and give a bit of a run-down on the groups and teams. GROUP A Batty Shrimpers (managed by BB) Current form - top of V.58 winning all 4 games, knocked out of cup at 3rd round stage. One to watch - Philip Evelyn. 580 runs at...

    training perseverence!

    can one of my battrick buddies please tell me if this guy i got is worth persevering(sp) with as my main spinner? i dont really know when hes due to pop his bowling but he has been this level for an age. sorry for my incompetence once again on the subject. Glenn Ryno (964259) RH Batsman, RH...

    Under Armour

    Right, most people have now left the office but I've got to hang around until my Mrs is ready to meet me to go to the pub! So, desperation post time. I noticed from the footage of Wednesday night, most of the team now appear to be wearing Under Armour cold-weather stuff under their...
  16. support the team

    Seems to be a varied view on supporting/sacking the manager, certain players,new stadium, GK etc, but presumably we all want the team to win so lets get right behind them today chaps, if ever a team needed a win its Southend today. Line up? Flavs francis sodje spinner hammell JCR...

    Ideal starting line up for Saturday

    flavs francis sodje spinner hammell mccormack jcr maher gower bradbury eastwood Agree? Or is it too early to risk Bradbury? Maybe reward Hooper for his good performances of late?

    A plea to Uncle Ron

    Although he sounded as if he really wants to get Freddy to stay with what he said on the CCC, I think even the most diehard Southend fan knows that his days in a navy blue shirt are numbered. There has to come a time when we cash in our prize asset unfortunately but that's modern day football...
  19. Plenty of Positives

    Spinner and Sodje, another clean sheet, Guttridge looked very dodgy early on but started to look like the player from last season. Francis - outstanding tackle when the dangerous Nugent was through in the first hal. Both full backs are looking more comfortable. Preston have won 5 of their last...
  20. The Big Shrimp

    SAD?

    Just watch Freddy's goal again on Soccer AM, where he got the "honour" of being the last goal to be shown on the Best Goals of Carling Cup Round Up. As the ball hit the net I still cheered like I was at the game! I know I hate Man Ure with a passion, but that was a cheer for...
