  1. Great Night at Wakering

    Went to a Race Night at Great Wakering Rovers' clubhouse last night for an evening of fun with Beaver from the Trust and his lady wife. This event was well supported by Rovers friends and families and raised about £1800 for the football club. I see the Trust have a Race night this Saturday...

    Memory Lane Billy Best

    I had a phone call earlier this week from Billy Best and for all those misty eyed fans of a certain age Billy will be back at Roots Hall this weekend for our match against Northampton Town, just under 50 years since he joined us from the Cobblers back in January 1968. Billy...

    On yer 'ead 'arry!

    Goals such as our two last night at Oxford could be things of the past if this report gains enough support in the game. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-38971750 I personally couldn't imagine the game without head contact to the ball, but I can also see the risks the report is highlighting. A...

    Rangers

    What an unusual statement Mark Warburton says he has not stood down as Rangers manager, despite a club statement that they have accepted the resignation of him and his staff. Rangers announced on Twitter that Warburton, assistant David Weir and head of recruitment, Frank McParland were leaving...

    French presidential election 2017

    The job of writing a long article to explain the race to l'elysée up to now had prevented me from starting a thread. Happily, this article from the Independent does most of it for me. I would agree with the majority of what is written (apart from liking Le Pen to Clinton!)......thank God we...

    Millwall FC - CPO on The Den

    I am surprised no-one has brought this up as yet, our former CEO has inherited one almighty challenge as the new CEO at Millwall FC, and was on Talk Sport yesterday discussing it and galvanising support - which has been pretty forthcoming from the football world in general. Basically, Lewisham...
  12. World Cup 2026 to feature 48 teams

    Looks like this has been voted through and is official. It looks like there will be 16 Groups of Three in the first round. Draws will be settled by penalties. Top two in each group go through to a 32 team knock-out round. So there's one extra knock-out game and a reduced group stage. I'm...

    Question 2016 - How Was It For You?

    Not spotted a similar thread so thought I'd start it for a bit of quick reflection before we properly get going with 2017. Have seen something similar I think in previous years and always find it interesting - we all have a common bond in SUFC but outside of that all have different lives with...
  14. Question From SUFC --- Do you feel loved and Engaged ?

    I have just returned after Chairing a meeting between the Southend Supporter's Groups and Danny Macklin, the Commercial Director of Southend United. Danny asked me, and the other group representatives, to ask our members, on a scale of 1-10, how engaged and loved by SUFC people feel. Please...
  15. Meaningless Stat

    What is it with this obsession by the media of a manager's "win percentage"? Don't they realise that this figure only shows part of the story. An example (if indeed we should need one):- Manager A. 20 games as manager, Won 10 Lost 10. Win % 50%. Manager B. 20 games as manager, Won 8 Drawn 8...
  16. Old Shrimper

    Hi all, Thought I would join to hear news and opinions of other supporters. I like some of the historic comments and pictures of times past. I first starting watching the Blues in 1951 when the club played at Grainger Road stadium, travelling there on a saddle on my Dad's crossbar and then...

    Justice for the 185

    All those 185 supporters who paid to watch that rubbish at Stevenage should have a free ticket for the next round. Let's get a movement up. #justsaying

    Match of the Day - Chelsea

    I don't normally watch MotD but it was on BBC1 this morning and I watched a bit. The match that really caught my eye was Chelsea v Everton. I have no love for Chelsea at all, but from the highlights shown they were absolutely awesome, Hazzard and Costa especially. When players are in that sort...
  19. Millwall vs Southend

    Aside from the result, we can all surely agree how good our away fans were last night. I know some people grumble about the home support, but our away support is pure class imo - couldn't hear a thing from the Millwall also. Your opinions on Home and Away support?

    Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley

    White Hart Lane has a capacity of 36,284 and at Wembley last night there were 85,512 so financially it's a big thing for Spurs to play there. Given they have now lost their last two games at Wembley, there is more than a chance that they will not qualify for the next round of the cup. I wonder...
