Beaten by the pitch
Yesterday when with PB i joked with him about sorting the pitch out whilst on gardening leave. He laughed but then became serious and said that the pitch had "done for him". It had stopped the players playing football and achieving the style and results he had wanted. He's probably not far wrong.- fbm

How many points
How many points do you feel will be required to bag a play off spot? I'm thinking around 74 points will be about right. Competition is thought this year so could be slightly more. With plenty of below midtable teams still to play we have to be in with a chance of achieving this. Great time to...- Tommy2holes

Tips for Sp to in-play running prices.
In response to another poster I will post some racing tips for in-play betting. These are likely to drop from their SP whilst the race is being run. I use betfair, though with other trading software as it make it easier to "green up" across the whole field. So here are a few for today. 13:50... -
Rons patience running thin.
Ron has done and continues to do an outstanding job at Southend United. He has had many a sleepless night in his heroic attempt to drag this club higher up the football ladder. He believes we have the players currently at the club who are capable of achieving that goal this season. However he...- southchurch

Is your life living up to expectation?
Are you happy with how your life has panned out? What did you want to do when you were younger, what did you study and is it relevant to the job/trade you ended up in?

What I like about Phil Brown
I've just been reading through Phil Brown's interviews and I am impressed with how he conducts himself. PB seems to be a very strong minded and positive person.

Divine right to promotion?
Some on here and others elsewhere (perhaps RM?) appear to believe we should have a divine right to promotion. I wonder how many other clubs will be equally as gutted about not achieving League 1 status? Northampton Town? Might still make it but with the potential support and set-up - they will...- Kevin Hogg

Overview of PS this season.
Did Luggy fail the promotion test or was it other factors? I believe he had a problem from the very beginning of this season. I feel he may have been undermined with the arrival of Freddy.

Northampton Town V Southend United
Two away games in four days sees the Shrimpers head to Sixfield Stadium to take on Northampton Town. A much needed win is required by the Shrimpers as they are on the bottom of the League 2 ladder after two games. Can they do it? Well this preview will hopefully answer that.
