  1. Positives and Negatives

    On the whole I don't think people need go overboard with negativity. We played an extremely competent side who in truth are the only team to have outplayed us so far and when you're adjusting to life in a new division (and in particular the Championship where the step-up is huge) that doesn't...

    Stop blaming Prior for our loss

    obviously you need to defend well to win games as well as score but the simple fact is; we lost today because we could not hit a barn door fom 6 yards. now im not having a go at the forwards here becuase i worship eastwood and co but today we couldnt score. francis and hammell were poor today...

    Ref on Saturday

    1.) Made us wear our away kit because he wanted to wear black. 2.) Told Goater to hurry up and leave the field when he was subbed. 3.) Did not clap Goater off the field despite it being his last ever appearance.

  4. A  challenge

    I cahllenge anyone to come up with a genuinely more emotional moment as a Shrimper than when Goater was subbed today.

    How good was...

    that for a send of for the Goat. When he was subbed, every single person in that ground was on there feet applauding him. I saw him wiping the tears away as he ran out before kick off. When Roots Hall stood to acknowledge him, it brought a tear to my eye, it was quite emotional. What a legend

    Kevin Maher was subbed on Saturday! The decision was clearly not a reflection of form, maybe he was a bit narked after his yellow card and a risk of a red, but surprised you have not all commented and one of you have not seized the commercial opportunity to have T shirts made marking the...

    NICE SCORE, SHAME ABOUT THE GAME Southend returned to the top of league one tonight after a professional but spluttering display against a team surely destined for league 2 if not extinction. The three points were, to be honest, courtesy of a first half mugging and Rotherhams total ineptitude...

  9. Substitutes

    Being is we like to have the odd gimmick - Terry Alderton, Tart Announcer etc how about having a vote who you want subbed at half time (like I'm a Celebrity get me out of here) - every player has his own phone number and everyone votes who that want subbed and replaced with. To add a bit of...

    BLUES DRAW BLANK BUT STOP THE ROT Prior to tonights match, my own view was that it was imperative not to lose again so any sort of result would be a positive.  This was aside from my own optimistic opinion that we would win a comfortable 3-0 of course. Chesterfield are one of the divisions...

  12. Cat amongst....

    As mentioned on a lot of strings since Saturday think the game was lost in midfield. We were crying out for Benno in the 2nd half and IMHO the weaklink was Kev. This is the first time that i have thought this and think that Tilly and Brush sometimes both need to bite the bullet. If the skipper...

  13. The defence today?

    Wasn't at the the game today but keep reading how "the defence was all over the shop". I question this as I'd like to know how Barrett played? Personally he has been a weak link for us in recent games, against Barnsley Hayes totally outplayed him and Barnsley's quality long...

    This New PA Announcer!

    Yet again this new PA bloke was simply awful!! You cant understand him and his way of reading each SUFC player out is a joke!!  He's trying to be something he's not.. He's like a reall poor boxing announcer. Get Jeff Allen back...Quick, he was so much better. As for this new half time...

    Dudfield update

    From the Echo Launches scathing attack on Peterborough boss Mark Wright.  Says his man management skills are "a joke". Was due to play the second 45 mins of Posh's game but was subbed after only 25.  Nothing was said and then he was slated in the press afterwards. So, he has no club and on "a...

    Wow, as the hangover has lifted it has finally sunk in that we bloody did it! Although I always followed the Blues fortunes since childhood I didn't really see many games, even when I started work at 17. I actually started to goto to every home game from the middle of 98/99 onwards so...

    Well, we were all a bit gutted from Cardiff but managed to pick ourselves up to make some decent noise. Not to be outdone, Orient were in decent voice too and it had all the makings of a good derby atmosphere. The game started fairly slowly with Southend having the better of early exchanges...

  20. Maher!!!

    Why oh why does Maher never get subbed when he is having a bad game, even though that would mean 95% of games. Once again on Sunday he can't head the ball, tackle, every freekick is the same just lobs it in giving defenders time to settle. Your never see him whipping the ball in with pace...
