I'll be there tomorrow! Refreshing to have some Speedway news on here!

It was funded by the Local Authority in it's entirety.
Old, decrepit stadiums, no matter how small and rickety make no long term sense on three levels...

1 - They more often than not occupy...

Take that back...I spent almost 2 years on that job!! Nothing wrong with it from a functional point of view...in fact, whilst it isn't the Emirates it is a highly environmentally and economically...

Agree with Cricko. If they really cared that much, they would have pulled their fingers out 45 games ago...

I don't wish to sound ungrateful but we are still the most expensive season card in the league by some distance. Personally I don't see that figure, frozen or not, as good value for money in any way.

What this man said.

I'd really start getting emotional if the players that were leaving had actually contributed to a successful season but alas this is been anything but the case. No truer a case...

Is it bollocks. We're currently building Barnet's nomadic home for next season and the last thing I need is to see them go down!!!

Delighted you said ego at the end of that sentence...

Will they actually be giving companies run/involving true Southend fans a chance to tender for works on the stadium or are we going to be ignored in this regard as well?

Are we missing out on anything in particular by not hearing from the players after yet another spineless defeat? All they do to a man is wheel out the same footballing clichés every damn week.
...

Won't happen - Barnet's situation is unique. They pulled any further negotiations with Barnet Council due to their preference to house Saracens in their target site at Copthall. Source...we are...

A ridiculous and pointless question imho. Some people just refuse/fail to understand the point of the new facility - it has very little to do with what spectators want in this day and age....in...

I have said it before and I'll say it again - as a footballing experience, the Millennium Stadium cannot be beaten.
Some of you know I have worked in and around stadia for a long time, and, having...

I'd take it if I were you Jai - life opportunities like that come along once in a blue moon. Disappointment dished up by Southend every weekend will almost certainly always be here on tap...

Obviously, tomorrow will be fabulous for everyone connected with the Club - no greater prestige than plying your trade at Wembley if you are an English Club side - however, I honestly think you'll...

To be fair, if this is the most important thing left on the agenda (doubt it though...) then we can't be too far off....

For future reference peeps, this is what is commonly known in the industry as a contribution under Section 106 of the Town & Country Planning Act.

Essentially, Section 106 agreements are...

Stop this madness...we are not going up....we'll be lucky to finish in the top 10 based on recent form and performance levels. I'll be satisfied now with a respectable 4-0 defeat at Wembley...it...

Please please please stop this nonsense!! We simply aren't good enough - on paper we should be, but we clearly are not going to get anywhere near that 7th spot as we massively bottle it every time we...

I volunteer my services to design and help us deliver a much more affordable alternative to FF should it all go tits up! :winking:

He was photographed at the training ground unless I am very much mistaken. May not have actually interacted with the players as yet though...

One thing that you can almost certainly guarantee will not happen with Phil Brown. Love him or hate him (and I am acutely aware that he is a very 'marmite' manager - no pun intended there...) he is...

Exactly what I have said previously...he would have been absolutely perfect. Loyal, local lad. Having said that, he is a hardcore West Ham fan...

Great post...

This.....

f***ing love John Sitton....could listen to his legendary rants for hours!
