    Breaking News Boli deal is off

    Saturday's match will be refereed by Jock Waugh from Sheffield. He is in his third season as a League referee although he missed a good chunk of last season through injury. He has refereed Southend just once before, at Hartlepool the season before last when we lost 3-0. The only Southend player...

    What we can afford

    I read somewhere over the weekend and damn I cannot find it on line now, but it said that we can only send troops to Afghanistan(or the next worthless fight) so long as we as a country can afford it. WTF is that about, we sends kids who are dying daily in based on money to risk their lives...

    Re: Prospects - Time to make a stand So what with the Echo article the other week, it appears Prospects are again playing hard ball.

  8. Two wingers

    Now that we seem to have two wingers worthy of the name, could we afford to play both wide players, espcially if clubs come here and play five in the middle with only one up front, my thinking is its possible we could be slightly outguned with only two central midfielders. Personally id like to...
