Ref Watch ...... Bradford City (H) and symmetry
There is a quite remarkable symmetry to matches between us and Bradford City. The two clubs met 25 times in the 20th century and we did not manage a single win at their ground and they did not manage a single win at Roots Hall. Since the turn of the century there has been another 12 matches, 6...- Mick

Ref Watch ...... Oldham A
As we head to Oldham with a vastly changed team from the one that picked up an unlikely 5-2 victory there just a year ago, the man in charge of Saturday's match is Chris Sarginson from Stoke. He is a ninth year referee who will be refereeing his eleventh Southend match and, for me, he is...- Mick

Ref Watch ..... Shrewsbury H
The man in charge of Saturday's match is Chris Sarginson from Staffordshire. He is a ninth year referee who will be refereeing his tenth Southend match and, for me, he is another one who falls into the "lucky to still be there" category. His last Southend match was co-incidentally against...- Mick

Ref Watch .... Blackpool A
Our first ever game against Blackpool was a 1-0 win 95 years ago. Our most recent game against Blackpool was a 1-0 win, back in November this season. In between times honours are very much even. We have an experienced referee for tomorrow's visit to Blackpool. In charge is Mark Haywood from...- Mick

Ref Watch ...... Shrewsbury A
We have come out comfortably on top against Shrewsbury over the years but our recent record away to them hasn't been that great. In fact our only three wins there in the last 40 years have all been by a single goal to nil. Jay Smith, Ben Abbey and Brett Angell scoring in 2002/3, 2000/1 and...- Mick

For the second Saturday in succession, we are at home to a club that our League record against reads wins 7 losses 7. Last week worked out ok !

Ref Watch ..... Millwall A
We have a pretty dreadful record at Millwall. Although many of us remember fondly our 4-1 success in the first ever League match at the New Den, that is our only League win there in the last 35 years. We have an experienced referee for tomorrow's visit to South-east London. In charge is Mark...- Mick

Ref Watch ....... Stevenage A Play-off
Well here's the first of (hopefully) three refwatches we didn't want. Last week's one was derailed somewhat. I advised that we were due to get a young and promising referee; instead we got an old and very unpromising one! James Adcock became unavailable and Andy Haines was taken off 4th...- Mick

Saturday brings the 114th competitive match between Southend and Northampton including league games, play offs and various cups. Currently the aggregate score is tied at 183-183.

Ref Watch ........ Burton H
We have an experienced set of officials as we jostle for play-off positions tomorrow. The referee is, I believe, making his Roots Hall debut; hardly surprising as it is a 400 mile round trip for him! In charge is Mark Haywood from Wakefield, West Yorkshire (not to be confused with League referee...- Mick

BOXING: Darren Barker Set to Retire
Not sure if anyone watched this at the weekend. But it looks like Darren Barker is set to retire after just one (unsuccesful) defence of his recently aquired IBF Middleweight belt. According to Simms he's popped his hip again and it looks like curtains for him. Such as shame as he's always been...- Blue_Wes

Squad comparison to this time last year
A week or two ago I was really concerned and was one of the doomsday posters. It really looked like we would struggle to get anyone of note in.
