  1. Pound for Pound King Mayweather Reigns Blows Over Molesley

    The American public have never taken to the showboating arrogance of Floyd Mayweather Junior, so much so that they tend to cheer for his opponent... Such was the magnitude of his performance, the watching audience couldn't help but cheer Pretty Boy Floyd resoundingly. In the build-up, much was...
  2. ESB's Masters Preview

    The Masters at Augusta is one of the most eagerly anticipated sporting events, this year given more impetus by the not-so-surprising return of Tiger Woods. At the risk of overshadowing a landmark event in the golfing calendar, Woods has pledged to put his previous indiscretions behind him and...
  3. Pac Man Pummels Clottey, Provokes Mayweather

    Manny Pacquiao sent out a warning shot to Floyd Mayweather Junior by drubbing Joshua Clottey, taking the African apart in twelve long, gruelling rounds. The only reason this fight was scheduled was because of the row over drug testing between Pacquiao and Mayweather, with Mayweather facing...
  4. Question No Cup Matches at Roots Hall

    When was the last time Roots Hall did not host either an FA Cup or League Cup tie at Roots Hall ? A few clues: Coronation Street had not started, the farthing was still legal tender, South Africa was part of the Commonwealth, no-one had flown in space and the Berlin Wall hadn't even been...
  5. Hayemaker Fires His Warning Shots

    With his majority decision victory over Nikolai Valuev, David Haye duly delivered what he had promised, a shock to the system of the heavy weight division and a special warning shot to the Brothers Klitschko. He's cleaning this division of the rubbish that has populated it of late, and the...

    In honour of the Gillingham manager.....

    ....can we come up with a Southend Slow XI Obviously Stimson at left-back and probably captain, pushing out Che Wilson (FACT: Che could run quicker backwards than forwards) and recent loanee, George Friend. Centre-halves - we've had a few who could be outsprinted by a crippled, asthmatic ant...
  7. Mayweather Dismantles Marquez, Clears path for Monumental Showdown

    Some might have suggested that, after a 22 month absence from the ring, there'd be a certain element of rust around Floyd Mayweather. Not after this performance. "Money" Mayweather, as he prefers to be called these days, looked every bit as deadly as the man who took Ricky Hatton to pieces in...
  8. Ipswich Keeper Quits

    Must be mad............ ONE of Roy Keane's brightest young stars yesterday walked away from professional football at the tender age of 22. Ireland Under 21 goalkeeper Shane Supple left his manager 'shocked' by announcing his decision to leave the club after six years because, he said: 'I've...

    The 39th Shame

    I've found an interesting anomaly on the official Premier League website. Now, admittedly I'm playing fast and loose with the definition of the word 'interesting', but stick with me on this. When you click 'contact us', instead of bringing up the address of the organisation, it gives you a...

    Cheated Chelsea Lose The Plot

    It was a night that should have been memorable for the beauty of Michael Essien's opening goal, but it is a raging Didier Drogba who will linger in the mind's eye. Furious with the referee's failure to award any one of four possible penalties, he shouted and screamed in his face before being...
  11. Brush Interview

    (interesting stuff) Firm Foundations Firm Foundations Southend United may have faced a rare drama-free conclusion to the campaign last weekend, but according to assistant manager Paul Brush, this could yet prove a definitive season in the club’s modern era. Victory over relegated Cheltenham...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Paul Clark

    The Viking That alone might be enough words for many on here to vote yes to Paul Clark, but if you weren't fortunate enough to have witnessed his crunching tackles and never say die attitude, I suppose I should give a lengthier bio. The first local player up for election, Clark was born in...
  13. Breaking News Ron's blog 03/03/09

    I feel there are more issues I would like to share with supporters in relation to football matters, which includes acknowledging the very capable backroom staff who get little credit for maintaining a well oiled operation. That topic will be on another agenda as many fans’ only point of contact...

    Christmas lights and crap celebs

    For me, the really special thing about the run up to Christmas is hearing of which Z list celebrities smallish towns manage to get to turn on the Christmas lights. I read in this week's Uxbridge Gazette (a publication that makes the Evening Echo look like a contender for Newspaper of the Year)...

    Question Battle of the Horror Films - Round 7

    Carrie (Old Blue Lady) versus The Ring (stevie g g g) Interesting battle, again old school versus new. Not sure if this is the Japanese original or the US remake. Even so, the US remake is fantastic The Ring is a worthy contender either way and gets my vote for being innovative, scary and...
