Green Street

[Shrimp in a Kilt]

Son Ross was told at school that Green Street features (or mentions?) a match against Southend which we won 4-0. I would absolutely love it to be true, but I suspect that this is gentle Scottish Humour

Any one seen it?

 

[maldonblue]

Seen it a couple of times and no cant recall any mention of the worlds finest football club that is Southend United F.C.

 

[Maldon Blues]

I haven't seen it, but I'm sure i've heard that we have a mention!

Although I might be thinking of Football Factory, where we get drawn in the Cup do we not?!

Don't trust what that maldonblue says!

 

[BoyWonder2]

Don't believe we are mentioned in Football Factory.

 

[Ron Manager]

Dunno, I haven't watched it as I can't believe a film has been made about such deplorable and depraved behaviour. What they get up to should lead to imprisonment not be glorified in a movie starring a Hollywood actor.









Oh, I don't mean the hooliganism.....I'm talking about the despicable act of supporting West Ham!

Yes we are!!

In the scene where Frank has taken his missus to the pub for some greasy scampi and chips. The cup draw is on in the background and Southend United are drawn to play Portsmouth (or someone) ...

But I do, dear boy, I do!

Thought it was too good to be true, but it would have been lovely. We need to get Shrimpers into positions of influence in the film world. Forget Product Placement, think Subtle, Subversive Southend Placement!

Perhaps some subliminal advertising during Big Brother would do the trick.

The Chav Infestation in the West is bad enough Thanks...

I tried to wear my Southend shirt during the filming of the Hollywood blockbuster that I'm not allowed to talk about, but for some reason I was told to take it off..............probably because it was set during the Crusades

I seem to remember us beating Damascus Saracens 3-2 after extra time in the 3rd replay at the Hnaging Gardens of Babylon to qualify for the first preliminary round of The Coeur de Lion Cup.

 

[The Artful Shrimper]

I saw Green st and the bloke who plays the "leader" who gets killed at the end has got the worst cockney accent i've heard since a chimney sweep charmed the bloomers from mary poppins.

Crap film.

 

[Kent Shrimper]

i quite enjoyed the film, However the accent was terrible.

Football Factory is a better film.
