Memories, memories!
I have been away on my travels for some years (on & off) but will always be Southend United. Is so fantastic to see the lads sitting top of the league and of course the possibility of Anfield brings back memories of '79. That is just one great memory of so many as well as Watford in the previous...- Kevin Hogg

Jose - Up Close and Personal
Jose Mourinho smoulders. I wanted to get through this feature without writing anything that might worry my new wife, but there you go, I’ve blown it in the first line. But he really does.

Paterson interview from SSN
Interesting article. Southend supporters have certainly been put through the wringer this season, with the very existence of their club hanging in the balance at one stage. It appeared such issues had been laid to rest once a £2.1million tax bill was settled with HM Revenues and...- south247

Ed Upson
Scraping the barrel of the term 'ex' here, but 'ex-trialist' Ed Upson bagged a couple of goals in Ipswich's 8-0 friendly win. I am still a bit mystified why we didnt pick him up at the arse end of last season :(- palexander

Striker Crisis For Capello
England 4-0 Slovakia Heskey, 7 Rooney, 70, 90+2 Lampard, 82 Forget about the result.
