    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Dave Smith

    This poll is really a week or so too early. The date of this poll should be 01 May, because that is the date for which Dave Smith will forever be associated with the club, for it was on 01 May 1981 that his side claimed the club's first major trophy* with a 1-1 draw against Rochdale. Dave...

    All-Ticket

    can someone please explain the point of doing some away games as 'all-ticket'? what is trying to be achieved or perhaps avoided by not allowing away fans to buy tickets on the day? thanks in advance!

    Neil Warnock

    Idiot. Should have avoided defeat on the last day of the season then.

    ....90 minutes to watch it, 90 minutes to write it. I'll never get that time back. Never. West Ham 0-0 West Bromwich Albion So West Bromwich Albion are just a pretty team are they? Tell that to Rob Green, the West Ham goalkeeper who felt the full wrath of the struggler's newly found nasty...

    Villa Fans Need A Reality Check

    The Premier League table has an eerily familiar look, doesn't it? In amongst the excitement of Liverpool's emphatic victory at Old Trafford and the discovery of stardust in the boots of Andrey Arshavin, this was the weekend when Aston Villa finally dipped out of the top four. There can't be many...

  7. Match postponements

    Living and working in London these days means I have a longer journey than some (not all) to Southend home games. Just before leaving work at around 6pm in Farringdon I check the OS to confirm the match is going ahead. I then leg it round to Liverpool Street and get the last possible train...

    Marmite - Yummy or Scummy? You decide.

    After reading the hijacking of the 'No more blah blah blah jokes' thread it got me thinking. Where do you sit on the whole Marmite issue. Is it the best thing since Farley's Rusks or the Devils spread that should be avoided at every turn? For all those that like me love the stuff you should...

    Ron Martin - the statement

    Right, let's clear a few things up straight away - Contrary to popular belief, I haven't been avoiding the subject all day - quite the opposite, I’ve been itching to get on here and finally say my piece. Truth is, I too lost out on a lot of work this morning, and the meeting was over 2 1/2...
  10. Barrett or Clarke?

    Peter Clarke was to blame for two of the goals on Saturday but if one of the two had to be dropped in order to try and establish a better central defensive partnership who would it be? Personally I would drop Clarke, I dont rate him much at all, I think its no coincidence that Blackpool...

    Reducing smells

    Just had a bit of a session in the Works Bog, and wondered the best way to try and nullify the smell when one has made an unholy smell. I generally following the old 2 flush rule in that once I have finished dumping I flush once, and then after I have wiped I flush again. Luckily for me...

    How To Poop At Work

    We've all been there but don't like to admit it. We've all kicked back in our cubicles and suddenly felt something brew down below. As much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise, the WORK POOP is inevitable. For those who hate pooping at work, following is the Survival Guide for taking a...

    Leeds United

    The dream that they lived under Peter Ridsdale has long since faded into a memory but, for the supporters of Leeds United, it's taking a lot longer to wake up from the nightmare that followed. Defeat at Wembley to a spirited and creative Doncaster Rovers means that it's another season in the...
  15. Suitable Punishment?

    Now, it's approaching the end of my second year at Uni, This time next week i'll be finished. Me and the lads in my flat have been organising a massive blow out for the people we know...

  16. Clean slate for next season?

    Wouldn't it be nice if we could take the positive support from last night and apply it to the whole close season? What I am suggesting is that we give all the players a "Clean Slate", and get off the backs of the current un-favourites. I'm not for a moment suggesting that discussion on the...
  17. Just got back

    To my girlfriend's house in Liverpool. First brief impressions: crap game, unimaginative attempts at playing football with intermittent quick forays forward with no real end result (from both sides). The major news has to be Bailey's headbutt on Macca. Exactly what happened and what blows...

    Manchester City

    The legendary British football commentator Stuart Hall once earned himself a telling-off from then-Manchester City manager Kevin Keegan for continually referring to Maine Road as, “The Theatre of Comedy.” Keegan implored Hall to show the club some respect, but as Hall later pointed out...
