    Parkinson

    The sour faced ex Col******r git has really made it into the big time.....big stadium, big crowds, strong squad..........but since his arrival, crap results. Why? Because he rode his luck last year and is now being found out The money grabbing weasel was often compared by the media to Tilly...

    Fringe Players

    All the above are in my opinion chasing players rather than first name on the team sheet. But who do you think will play the least this season for the Blues. Personally I think it will be Mitchell Cole - Too much competition for wing spots compared to the other posittions eg - Wilson will play...

    Could we really sign Lee Trundle?

    Simple poll, but I want to elaborate on this as the speculation is killing me - as I am sure it is many others!! If it is true, then this IS the transfer that Ron Martin spoke of - clubs would certainly take notice of us as Trundle has been touted at Everton and Southampton amongst others - as...

    Agents fees

    We paid out £21,000 to agents between Jan-June 06 (compared with £23,750 in the preceding 12 months). Teams that spent more than us were Forest, Swansea, Bristol City, Donny Rovers, MK Dons and Swindon. Col Ewe spent nothing over the whole 18 month period. During the 6 month period we made 7...

    What a BIT£H

    What a waster!! This cruel B1TCH will get off lightly, compared to the poor folk she has contaminated! I say string her up now!!!

    Moved on to better things?

    Read with interest that Nicky "I'm going places" Nicolau has just been released by Swindon and it made me think have any players that have left the Blues in the past few years gone on to better things? I don't think so...........does anyone have a view? IMO it says a lot...
  8. Colchester and proud!

    Congratulations!

    Well done boys, I must admit we did have a giggle at Layer Road when you were 1-0 and 2-1 down, but you made it in the end Sincere congratulations on your promotion and maybe just maybe, we will be up there with you, if so it will be an unbelievable achievement by Parky given our resources...

    Swansea sold 26,000 tickets for sunday.

    Compared to Southend bringing 22'000+ to LDV final in 2004 & 2005, even we are miles away from Cardiff, but Swansea is not far to travel & that would show that Southend have good fans base, we would have bring at least 35'000 if the Final was staged at Wembley. But the Play-Off...

  10. Most important game in donkeys

    I was just looking at the remaining fixtures for league 1 and I believe our most important game for a very long time could be away to Bournemouth. Our home games before and after that look good but, if we lose to Bournemouth away I think there will be alot of pressure on us going into the games...

    Football League Review on SKY Sport 1 at 5.30pm

    Every time I see our goals, the way we pass the ball and our movement and finishing its look good, I compared this to some of the Championship side highlight, they look impressive & show that we can cut it in Championship if we get promoted & add the right players in summer. Forgive me...

  12. West Ham vs Birmingham

    Was at this game last night, and Birmingham were shocking. I will be amazed if they don't go down, West Ham cruised past them without even getting out of first gear. Every Birmingham player was well below par, but suprisingly their best player was DJ Campbell by a LONG way, even though he...

    League One

    Anyone on here, I'm thinking James (Uxbridge Shrimper) in particular, able to give the latest odds on League One, e.g. Champions, Promoted etc? Be interested to know how the bookies think we stand now compared to the favourites for relegation that they had us down for in August.

    The Goat

    Even today in the reserves he ambled around like an old man. Must be embarrassed to collect his vast salary < compared to Connie and Dudders> for what he has contributed. Also why is Tilly trialling centre halves like the one today that is clearly not fit to lick Andy Edwards boots, no...

    Agent Fees

    Interesting report on the League site http://www.football-league.premiumtv.co.uk/staticF....,00.pdf In the period 1/7 to 31/12 2005, Southend did the following: 6 new registrations 3 updated contracts 4 loans total paid to agents in this period £2,750. Compared to £35,530 in the same period...

    Amusing Stewarding at MK Dons

    I must make some comment on the hysterically stewarding experienced at Roots Hall last Saturday during the Spanish Shrimpers annual visit to the UK. The main view is from our position in the East Stand (first half East Greens [before some old fart made a comment about day-tripping, I kid ye not]...

    League or Non League ?

    With the transfer window approaching and a number of our recent better performers coming from Non league, I was wondering how our signings from League clubs compared to our Non league signings ? Royce Austin Pountney Garner Gower Eastwood are all non league examples, with Royce, Austin and...

    Blues Monthly Subscription

    Now maybe i'm missing something here, but when you take up a subscription you normally make a saving of some sort. The magazine owners are happy because of the guaranteed income, and the customer is happy because of the saving made. Now have a look at the clubs "offer": Subscription Offer?? A...

  19. Having a bad day at work....

    I am having a stinker at work and I found a rescue remedy. Just watched the last seven games on the bounce (not including Oldham) and the play off final goals. I sat at my desk with the biggest smile you'll ever see. I know it's a while back - Juppy's goal is such a pick me...

  20. My new proposal...

    ...Is to surgically attach stabilisers, like you would find on childrens bikes, to Phil Jevons legs. Like these, they would be bolted to the bone above the ankle, and will help keep him upright when walking, jogging, running, searching for penalties and/or freekicks. The cost of the pictured...
