  1. if i was manager - the team for Saturday ?

    well I expect Sir Steve will be conservative as usual altho' he can make changes now as his never change a winning team thing has gone out the window - anyway IF I WAS MANAGER I would start as below and make two subs. early in the second half - unless we were 3-0 up - easy first decision as...

    Odhiambo to stay for longer?

    OS But will he get a chance? Harrold and Clarke seem to the choice two at the moment and with McDonald, Hooper and Foran waiting in the wings, do you think it's worth keeping hold of Eric for a while longer, if indeed Leicester agree to it?

    Spread Eagle Thai Food

    May I just say that the Thai food in the spread is a must have, cooked superbly just what you need with a pint is a slice of pork on toast! or some chicken wings! Me and CS J give it top marks and we know that Seb Weetabix has plans to kidnap the cheff so that he can cook for him every...

    HOW WE SHALL WIN

    We have lost our way recently in the final third.Too many defences are playing square onto us.We are bereft of ideas once our midfield have exchanged passes.Marky G flies down the wing only to turn inside.JCR goes down the wing quicker than anyone but stops to look for support.Everyone looks to...
  8. Take on last night...

    I was really, really confident that Barnsley was a place that we could get a result and turn our season around (it certainly should have been).  How wrong I was.  I feel most sorry for the fans who made the journey.  People like me who skived off of my last lesson at school, got out of work in...
  9. Preston Saturday

  10. My take on Tonight!

    We all sat ther and shouted "You Fat B*****d at Parkin.....He scored and he held the ball up superbly. We all shouted "You cheating B*****d at Fagan, he scored and ripped us to pieces with his pace on the wing. The Hull midfield and in fact the whole team "wanted it" as do...

    Centre Back Partnership

    For me at the moment, it's got to be Barrett and Sodje but great to know we have Clarke waiting in the wings.
  13. New signing

    I understand that we are discussing personal terms with a new player. He is meeting Tilly today (dont know where) to discuss coming to Southend. I know that this is vague but my source is someone within the club who didnt want to let too much out. If we can agree terms, he may sign later today...

  16. 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die

    Just heard about this book that was published late last year - some strange choices and (IMHO) some glaring ommisions. That said, I own 293 of these and have heard a further 108 giving me a respectable total of 401. To be honest, dying would be a favourable option to hearing most of the others...

    Swansea squad

    Just had a look at the Swansea squad on their official site. Swansea First Team Squad Now, one of the things we're always banging on about on here is cover and competition for places, which we tend to have at Southend. We also look on enviously as Swansea splash out here there and...

    Bring back Cole

    Mitchel Cole has actually quite alot of assists this season and has scored. he wants to take players on and cross it in. what has he done to loose his place. Campbell-Ryce has IMHO been p%&s poor. yes he has a high work rate and tracks back, but he wont cross the ball and for a winger thats...

    5 A SIDE SOUTHEND UNITED TEAM

    This is a bit of a different topic but one I think you will enjoy discussing and airing your views. Who would be in your 5 a side team? name your formation as well. disregard subs for now. FLAHAVAN in the small goal - invincible. BARRETT for his ability to dribble would be in defence going on...
