    To those who went to Hull........

    Our fellow 'zoners are asking us if we're fit to wear the scarf. They say we spout bile and hatred. They say if we don't like losing we should f**k off & watch Chelsea. They say they can't believe the negativity on here. They say there is a new load of Wiggy types. Please post if you agree...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 1

    Cast your mind back almost ten years; could you honestly see us reaching this pivotal moment in the history of Southend United? Back in 1998 the football club was skint; it couldn't pay its players, it couldn't pay its creditors, it couldn't pay the Inland Revenue; the future was so bleak that...

    Today's Verdict

    Well i thought the first half was nothing special, Col Ewe had the better chances. Second half was just total dire. I didn't see why Maher got sent off, but we can't have much complaint with why Gower got his marching orders. It was a silly foul when the ball was going off anyway...

  4. View from the armchair

    Just wondered where other ticket-less Shrimpers will be watching the game. Not that I'm (that) bitter, despite having gone to Leeds in the third round. I'll be round at my Grimsby-supporting mate's on the Isle of Dogs. I'm heartened to hear we'll have the sublime wisdom of former Blues...

    Slipperduke's Slippery Column

    It pretty much wrote itself this week..... Slipperduke's Slippery Column #12 I've got a massive problem today. It's not just the fact that I've spent five hours in the freezing cold queuing for non-existent tickets to Southend's League Cup clash with Manchester United. Well, actually, it is...

  6. Fergie says he won't rest players

    ...... week against Celtic. Man Utd's loss last night means it is even more likely that we'll be facing a team made up of reserves, youths and the coach driver. (From someone who's not in the slightest way a little bitter that the club could not find a way to get a ticket to...

    I had to cancelled my date as Iam not in the mood

    Have you remeber Moye quote when he has an interview with Everton chairman few year ago before he got the job after leaving Preston "I would like to see Everton fans take his wife/girlfriend out for dinner as they are in an happy mood after an Everton win" - this quote clinch the...

  8. Ricketts Contract Terminated

    Another chance for all the Shrimperzone "peeps" to slate me. After the Matt Harold thing i wasn't going to bother but hey let's not be bitter. Ricketts told contract is reminated as of today by Ron Martin, remember you heard it from the Wrongun first !!

    Simon Jordan

    This guys a legend. Taken from the Observer: Forget Bruce, trouble starts with true blue Sullivan David Sullivan doesn't like his players. 'They're on £20-30,000 a week and they're not earning it; it makes you resentful,' he says, 'I've reached the stage where I don't like footballers.' Fair...

    No-Brain Laws on SkySports

    Just seen the reserved & much respected Scunthorpe Utd Manager Brian Laws being interviewed post-match on Sky I got deja-vu when I heard this... His inane banter was along the lines of:"We need 2 or 3 more wins to make sure we are safe. In this Division it's being shown that anyone...

    Breaking news

    The reason I've not been on the board for a while is that i have been in a 40 hour meeting with my lawyer. We have consulted third parties to ensure they agree with it and have chosen to release the following statement: "It is with deep sorrow that Southsea Commoners will not be...

    The Podcast Issue

    Let me put something straight. I was NOT against the podcast; jokey comments might have been interpreted as such but I was not against it. My train of thought is as follows: Firstly, the concept of the podcast was indeed innovative, if not the first in the country or the world. But by limiting...

    New Striker?

    We seem to be running out of options, so what do you think is going to happen? Goater must still be a possibility - although according to The Sun, he was on £8000 a week at Reading so he will need to take a hefty salary cut - although as that's now paid up, he may be able to afford to do so...

    Back To Malta

    Well, I have returned to a rather hot and sunny Malta after a month in the UK. My trip was both business and pleasure, but the business end was carefully timed to allow me to make the end of season run-in. Priorities have to be in place! I was hoping to watch The Shrimpers lift their first...

    Grimsby

    Has anyone noticed our recent tendency not to score in important games away from home? For example: 2 LDV final's FA Cup ties at Everton, Sheffield Wednesday, West Ham and Southampton I have been to each one of these and the bitter pills of defeat would have been much easier to swallow if...

    Just to reiterate another point

    I think this is comfortably the most re-assuring "everything will be ok" thread I've read. "The real nightmare would be seeing your side bottom of the league and going into administration and not knowing if you even have a team to support next season. Which is what is...

    C2C Grief?

    C2C pressure group. Obviously there are some very bitter people on the message board but it looks a good place to log problems and delays. Maybe something will be done to improve the service? I have already found out that C2C are putting TVs into trains in the near future.
