    Ted Smith's magical disappearing act

    Any idea what his situation is? What was originally a small knock to his shoulder turned into a few weeks and now several months and I can't recall seeing any updates recently. Not been on the bench in 3 months this weekend. His contract is up at the end of the season.
  2. Cockney Urchins

    I have long advocated taking on reserves/kids from London clubs, usually a decent standard, no danger of homesickness and it didn't do us any harm with the likes of Powell, Collymore etc. Therefore it irks me a tad when the cream of West Ham's yoof are disappearing to outposts such as Bradford...
  3. Hereford on the way out

    http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/dec/10/hereford-united-suspended-fa-football Another club on the verge of disappearing forever for probably one day's wages for a over-rated Premier$hite superstar. Feel for their supporters, could have easily been us at one stage. Here's hoping...
  4. "Best start" since 1990 fast becoming a "Worst start" since ????

    I know its only early days, but our best start since....is fast disappearing into obscurity. Can anyone tell us when our "worst" start was, and did it go on to a relegation that year?

    where's the money gone?

    As we sit top of the league, with a pretty good squad assembled without spending a penny, I thought i'd raise the "where's the money question". Mainly because it's not relevant. At our level of football, no one is spending money these days, and if you're team's doing badly and you want...
  6. AGM minutes

    Uncle Albert, boots shining like a cyclists tail light,strode into the foyer of the Palace Hotel. As he did so a smartly dressed youngman hesitantly came forward to greet him. His job was to welcome all the Bluesshareholders as they arrived for the clubs AGM and he’d obviously beenforewarned not...

    Anyone else's news feed disappearing after you click on 'most recent' ? It will come up from time to time but then when I refresh the page its gone again.
  8. Zone Update Box Office

    14 days to go before Ipswich match and we have 7 players. I just called the Box Office to ask what their policy is on getting season ticket refund....just for your guide, season tickets are non-refundable (oooh shock horror) but they will give me an e-mail address to put my request in writing. I...
  9. Question Where we stand, the Trust and what next?

    What the bloody ell is going on. From afar I can see the club disappearing before my eyes! All we hear from RM is about his bloody housekeeper... RM I could not care less what happened... what I do want to know is what is happening with our club! Looking from afar I have scoured the web to...

    Sports writing

    Trescothick's autobiography is pretty good. You can also get it free from your local library. If you are looking for good cricket reading, I'd also recommend Nasser Hussain's autobiography, Playing with Fire for one of the key figures of the last decade in English cricket and John Barclay's...
  11. Zone Update BW fiasco

    The Brits

    Surprised not to have seen any references to it anywhere or was everyone watching football elsewhere? FWIW, my opinion was that a certain lady tried to hijack the whole proceedings and turn it from a family affair into a one woman show and failed miserably. And what was with her face? She...

    Good Post Mortem of our season

    Borrowed this from the yahoo list (with the original authors permission). This guy used to contribute to the SUFC fanzines in the 90's. ps: Didn't realise the Railway was showing the West Ham game on Saturday!!!! ------------ This was probably my sixth/seventh relegation so, as well as...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 5

    “Southend United Football Club needs new energy and direction. With careful financial planning and professional management there is no doubt in our minds that the club is geared for greater things.” So read a statement released by Martin Dawn plc in November 1998 just after they had secured a...

    Same old doom and gloom merchants

    * RANT MODE ON * After two successful seasons with clear progress demonstrated both on the field and off the field there are still numerous people on here that seem to spend their whole lives looking for opportunities to criticise. Squad size, striker shortage, tickets, club shop blah blah blah...

    Trouble ?

    One of the threads on our Rivals board suggests one of our players hit a steward after the match. Is this bullsh*t or is this connected with Tilly disappearing suddenly from his BBC Essex interview ?
