    Remember Julian Hails today...

    .....and his magnificent hat trick that beat Leicester at Filbert Street a number of years ago. You can do it boys, beat those Foxes and spoil their promotion party!

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Ricky Otto

    Next up for election to the Hall of Fame is Ricky Otto. Ricky Otto had it all: skill, flair and funny looking hair. He was signed by B****y F*y for £100,000, a fee that seems suspiciously high for a Leyton Orient reserve. I won't make any libellous suggestions about brown envelopes...

    Similies/Metaphors

    Seen this before but still makes me chuckle. May have to try to use a few of these in every day life, especially No. 30. 1. She walked into my office like a centipede with 98 missing legs. 2. His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a tumble dryer 3...

    Hails- storm!

    Last night Julian Hails popped up in one of my dreams. I can't remember exactly what the dream was about- it was pretty fuzzy and may have involved violence and general unpleasantness. However I do remember pausing for a moment mid-dream and thinking '****ing hell, it's Julian Hails'. In my...
  9. Planning For The Future

    Found this about tonight's youth game against Stoke: Stoke's youth boss Adrian Pennock hails Southend as the best team he has seen this season ahead of tonight's FA Youth Cup fourth-round tie at Roots Hall. Pennock took a sneak preview of Southend when watching them demolish Derby in the...

    Would You Pass The Britishness Test?

    We've just been discussing at work, somebody here has recently had to take the new Britishness test (she's marrying a UK citizen, but hails from the US originally). The comments about starting interesting threads on the "Demise of SZ" thread, plus the comment about the protests at the BNP guys...

    For The Benefit of True Blue, it's Metal Monday (Pt.4)

    Again a request this week, this time from my brother, BrettieAngell. This band hails from Los Angeles and were formed in 1990. Taking influences from a wide-range of metal genres, they have a very unique sound and style almost of their own. With their tight riff/bass drum rhythm's and the...

    One to start the weekend (week 21)

    A very very much so change of pace, and even genre this week takes us into a rappy direction. This 1992 tune, undoubtebly a classic, hails from a group whos three members come from Latvia, New York and Ireland, and was produced by New Yorker, DJ Muggs, and is one i like to play at party's etc...

    Julian Hails

    Not sure if this has been posted before, but he is currently teaching Maths at Haberdashers' Aske's Boys' School in London. My friend is teaching RS there and has just messaged me in an excited state... I love the fact that friends from Uni can only remember the fact I support Southend about me...

    Slipperduke meets...

    When I caught up with Adrian Clarke in London's trendy Camden, it was raining. "It's raining," he said with a wry smile, as the water pounded against the windows. He glanced outside at the widening pools of water on the pavement, the reflected lights of the traffic turning them into...

    First Southend Hatrick

    Mine was (I think) the ledend that was Julian "Jinky" Hails away at Leicester. Not only was it my first Southend hatrick it was also possibly the most unlikely hatrick hero ever. Who was your first hatrick hero? For some reason I think the bulk of people will have it as Tommy...

    100 Best ...

    Let's start our own ShrimperZone centenary celebrations by picking 100 players who have turned out for Southend United. But let's choose them on a personal level in YOUR lifetime - first come, first served (no repeats) - with your reason WHY you choose this player. We all have different...
  18. Julian Harris

    Who the hell is Julian Harris? According to the trivia slip in one of the Xmas Crackers we bought from the club shop, he was voted player of the year in the 1997/1998 season. And there's me thinking it was Julian Hails!
  19. The Emperor's new clothes

    Slight twist on DtS's excellent thread, as suggested by Firestorm. His nominations were Shane Westley and John Keeley. My nominations would be: Flahavan - I see a midget shotstopper who is dodgy at crosses; everyone else sees the best keeper in the division. (although at the moment...
  20. Front page article on the fixtures

    Napster, I think you'll find your on another planet son! There are quite afew mistakes in that article. "This is our first season in League One, or the 3rd Division as I prefer." - Dont you mean 2nd Division? "Aaah, well, the last time we were in this division, we...
