    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Stan Collymore

    The next man up for election to the Southend United Hall of Fame is Stanley Victor Collymore. I think Stan might be the first man to divide opinion sufficiently to have a few no votes. After all, longevity is one of the criteria and Stan only graced a Southend shirt thirty-three times and...

    Just coming to terms with our first Christmas without our much loved springer, Benji - (named after the great man himself )- who died last May ( a few days after the Southampton match ) aged 16 . No plans to get another yet , but made me wonder if I did who would I name him after this time ...

    Ok - I'm stupid !

    Sitting here on the train as I am mulling over life, love and SZFC it has just dawned on me how Benji91 got his username (and I was at the game !) :p Coming from the same person that only realised a few years ago that the tide doesn't go out to Kent and back that's hardly surprising. :D will...

    Best 3 away games ever !!!

    Morning, I think an away day with Southend is pretty much of a thank less task. Lets face it even the most simple and basic away game we have the amazing ability to turn into a four nil defeat. But once in a while we do have the amazing ability to win and win in style. So my question would...

    Reasons to be cheerful...

    1 - We didn't lose to Leeds and are still 3 points and 6 goals better off than them - I for one would have taken this at 3pm ( or even 3.15 ) yesterday. 2 - There is no chance of the players going into the mini- break thinking 'job done' 3 - Tilly and Brush have a whole two weeks to...

    On this day........

    Oh the memories....... Away in the FA Cup to Everton, lost 1-0 and did ourselves proud. I will never forget that bloody save that Neville Southall made to keep out Ian Benjamin in the second half, poor old Benji wheeled away in celebration only for Nev to pull off a ridiculous save. I think we...

  18. The jigsaw is complete

    I remember reminiscing with some fans a few years back (when you got used to watching McSweeney and co it was best to reminisce about the good times) and I said that my two biggest disappointments as a Southend fan were that we didn't win the Division 3 Championship in 1991 when we should...

    Tilsons selections...

    Just got back home to Lincs... We did really well today I thought and its great to get 3 points. To be honest, from todays game I'd say it is going to take us 4 or 5 games just to get used to the pace and space of CCC. Stoke are not one of the better teams in the division, but you could...
  20. Memory Test

    OK - dust down the memory caps. Who scored the first Southend Goal you ever witnessed. For me I think it was Ian Benjamin at Brentford in 90/91...growing up as schoolboy in London, I didnt get to too many games before then and amazingly we didnt score in the first 5 games I went too! So -...
