    Anglo Italian cup stories.

    I never made it to an away Anglo Italian Cup match which to this day remains one of my biggest regrets. Has anyone got any good stories?

    VHS to DVD

    I have a few VHS videos of the Mighty Blues. Is there anyone who can convert them to DVDs for me? In return you can make a copy for yourself - copies of our 1991 season in Division One, the 10-1 win, the game against Spurs, an Anglo-Italian home movie (includes clips from training) and more. Let...

    We could miss out on Wembley again!

    With us being the form team in the table it looks like our history will never see a Southend appearance at Wembely for a big game. This seasons play off final will not be played at Wembley i understand think it will be Old Trafford. It amazes me that every time we get a chance of a wembley date...

    A Big Cheer For Little Clubs

    Bit of a new one this, it's for the Irish Examiner's football supplement, currently rolling off the presses as I type. Bit more wordy than the usual fare and with more Anglo-centric references. Anyway, give it a go and let me know what you think, it helps to have feedback with new stuff... If...

    Tilsons iPod speculation.

    Has anyone speculated as to exactly what is on Steve Tilson's iPod? I reckon it is about 85% 80's soul. The remaining 15% is old skool Balearic to remind him of Webb era changing rooms and Anglo-Italian cup fixtures.

    White Hart Lane

    I always enjoy a trip to White Hart Lane. Sure, it's in the middle of the north-east London badlands, a destination made even more remote by London Transport's fascination with shutting down the tube on match day, but there are consolations. For starters, there's the stadium itself, a hulking...

    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...

    Anglo-Italian Cup

    Have been looking at the Anglo-Italian Cup, as part of my studies on those adorable little footie hooligans from the south of Italy recently, and whilst i'm not discussing anything to do with Southend, I'm still interested to hear of how they did in the cup. Anyone off here see the mighty...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Chris Powell

    Fighting Talk on Radio 5 Live has a segment called Defending the Indefensible where pundits or comedians (note Mark Lawrensen the two are separate) are given an outrageous statement that they have to somehow justify for 30 seconds of airtime. Now I've always fancied my chances of playing devil's...

    Arsenal Put Plenty Past Twente

    Crisis? What crisis? Arsenal's early season jitters were massaged away last night with a comfortably comprehensive victory over FC Twente that secured their place in the group stages of the Champions League. In today's hyper-sensitive, overly-neurotic game, it doesn't take much to put that 'c'...

    Now, according to Virgin Money, the average regular fan of a Premiership football team forked out £1,331 (5% of average salary) supporting their side in 2007. This covered the cost of tickets, merchandise, travel, food, alcohol and match programmes. One in eight dedicated fans paid out as much...

    There are no flags on cars and no posters in windows. No sweeping advertising campaigns and no collectable badges.

    Lager

    I prefer 'proper' beer as opposed to lager, but sometimes a pint of cold and fizzy is exactly what you need. So I ask the good people of SZ this: what is your favourite lager? There are tons to choose from of course, so I've had to keep it quite anglo-centric and stick with those widely...
