    The 3 songs?

    Before the players run out of the tunnel when we play at home, the P.A plays three tracks, does anyone remember what the second track is called? Its a dance track and for the the life of me I cant remember what it is called, any takers?
  2. Freddy tantrum

    There may be another thread on this somewhere but I can't be bothered to trawl, and couldn't bring myself to come on here til this afternoon. Did anyone else notice Freddy storming down the tunnel straight after the final whistle had gone on Saturday? Now I like the guy, don't get me wrong, but...

    Dog rape and the after effects!

    Many of you have in the last few months red posts on here about my 3 year labrador called Monty and his amazing ability to eat anything, even cow patts. I have managed however, to turn a blind eye to this (as gut wrenching as it is) but unfortunatly we have know entered a new realm of...
  4. Better without Freddy,you're having a laugh

    My heart sank with the non-appearance of Freddy from the tunnel today.Now I know he has been much debated on this site in recent times, and according to the well informed good people of ShrimperZone our most successful stiker is allegedly an unfaithful,womanising,drunken,late for...

    Valencia v Inter

    Valencia through on away goals rule after 2-2 draw on aggregate. Worth watching for the all-mighty punch-up at the final whistle with players and officials fighting on the pitch, in the tunnel and in the changing rooms! Inter appear to have been very sore losers ...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 5

    “Southend United Football Club needs new energy and direction. With careful financial planning and professional management there is no doubt in our minds that the club is geared for greater things.” So read a statement released by Martin Dawn plc in November 1998 just after they had secured a...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 4

    “It was only four years ago that this club was losing £2.3m a season,” Ron Martin enthused as he published the accounts for the financial year ending July 2002 which showed that Southend United has lost “just” £707,665, the fourth year in succession that the club had reduced its losses. It was a...
  9. Managers area..

    Parkingson did this and Mcarthy was at it as well.. Constantly crossing the halfway line to shout bollocks at players from in front of the tunnel and almost in front of our bench.. Mcarthy was doing this even when the ball was up at the North bank end.. I was hoping Tilson would out his boot on...

    Settle my dispute

    I was at my mate Clumseys flat on Sunday watching the Blackburn Vs Spurs game. As the players came out the tunnel everoyne of the Blackburn players was holding a mascots hand. These mascots were about 11 or 12 I would say. I said to my mate Sweaty that I bet Blackburn would like to field the...

    The fbm view and ratings

    NOT QUITE ALL WHITE AS BLUES GRAB POINT Southend earned a deserved point against play-off chasers Plymouth at the Hall today, but wore their all white away kit to do it! Presumably the visitors had not brought down their away strip and so it was felt that the easiest solution would be for us...

    The View from Spain

    As the cork from a bottle of cava struck the ceiling and rebounded into a clutch of Man Ure fans bonding in quiet contemplation in one corner of the bar, someone, I don't know who, approached me, shook my hand with hearty congratulation and uttered: "how the **** are you lot bottom of...

    Match Report v Ipswich Reseves

    Hmmm, first reserves experience in 35 years of Shrimper watching. Enjoyable in an odd sort of way. The day went something like this: 06:15: alarm goes off. Bllcks it's Monday. 06:22: alarm goes off again 06:22: to 16:00: hard day at work, big important meeting stuff up in London, meeting...
  14. Where would you sit in the new stadium?

    Perfect views everywhere so where would you sit in the new stadium? My guess is the big stand is the South stand, do we want an end ? Would you sit at club level if there is such a thing and you have enough dosh? Opposite the tunnel is the North? how does that sound?

    Why we should drop Freddie

    When will Tilson take off his rose tinted tunnel vision glasses ? It is clear to see that the old Eastwardian is out of his depth and should be dropped for younger player i.e. Hooper. Although i have never seen him play the fans at Grays were upset to see him go and he is obviously class and...

    Tilly Tonight

    Suffolk Shrimpers were at Portman Road tonight. Sat next to the England dugout in the second half, Tilly looked calm and collected. He bought some drinks into the dugout from the tunnel at half time, said 'Oi' to attract Jerome to stop him warming up so he could be brought on as sub...
  17. Bryan Ferry had it right

    Now we seem to have recovered our equilibrium after ONE defeat I'd just like to say that I think it's vital the support we showed against Palace is repeated throughout the season. Some of our players are probably playing above their standard but they are the ones that got us this far...

    pre-match music

    ...what the music is just prior to the players coming out of the tunnel at the hall? it's the almost-classical tune with the strong beat. have just noticed that the bbc played a version of it as part of their introduction to the world cup final about 10 minutes ago. i have tried contacting the...

    Worst date ever?

    Really enjoyed Sao Paulo Shrimpers "Roughest bird" you have ever shagged topic a few months back. Just wondering if anyone had any really bad stories. My story isnt about me (Honestly) but a bloke that my mates mate knew about 5 yeats ago. He was out in Brighton and got chatting...
  20. The turning point

    We went through years of being rubbish and now we're back in the second tier of English football. It would be easy to just put the transformation down to Tilly getting the job, but for me the specific turning point is something that yesterday's scene at Swansea with their fans clapping...
