    Who would you play instead of Lenny against Scunny ?

    So, who would you play instead of Lenny this Saturday ?
  3. Josh Cullen

    I've Just seen that he is another player from West Ham to be sent out on loan. In this case to Bradford, who we have to play on Tuesday, I hope he wont be another local, that turns out to bite us on the arse so to speak. I personally dont know much about him, did he ever trial with us? if so...
  4. 2015 Ratings

    Instead of the doom and gloom of yesterday , how about we use the inspiration of our 2015 record and rate the relevant players involved during that period , from 1st Jan 2015 to 31st December 2015. A players list from someone far more capable than me would be most welcome , but come on...

    Projectors

    I am in need of assistance from the tech savvy members of Shrimperzone. My 18 year old has decided that for Christmas she wants a projector in her room instead of a tv. Now she's seen one on Amazon for around £40 but I'm not convinced it will be very good. The budget is around £150 so any...

    Utter disgrace

    Many of you on here have expressed your displeasure of some of our fans, particularly at the abuse that they level towards our players. I regret to say that one of our "fans" was a true and utter disgrace this evening on a train back from Fenchurch Street. He sat in a seat one row away from...
  7. 3,335 at Scunthorpe ....

    Our last win at Scunthorpe was in 1983 and what a win it was. A 6-1 away victory. Hat-trick for Steve Phillips, Pennyfather, Shepherd and a rare Stead goal (just 5 in 340 appearances). You wouldn't have seen our centre half on that day poncing around at the back from corners - it was Paul...
  8. Ref Watch .... Rochdale H

    We have played Rochdale many times since the disbanding of Divisions Three, North and South. Our record against them is excellent and it's over 30 years and 13 matches since we lost to them at Roots Hall. Even when we found ourselves 3-0 down, we managed to salvage a point. Tomorrow's referee...
  9. Ref Watch ..... Gillingham A

    Well our last six League matches at Gillingham have finished WDLDWL, so things couldn't have been much more even. After "something old" at Chesterfield (Graham Salisbury, who I thought had a pretty decent match unlike some), we have "something new" at Priestfield. The referee is in his first...

    Being 65 is cool!

    I was sent this today by another oldie mate from the Colonies. I thought it worth sharing. I am over 65 and the Armed Forces thinks I'm too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 42 to join the military. They've got the whole thing ***-backwards. Instead of sending 18-year olds...

    Microsoft Edge browser

    I have a few issues when accessing SZ using MS Edge. Inserting smilies into a post, first time round I get ~ rather than a smilie, delete it and then it works. Inserting images - I can't insert 'in-line' unless I use Internet Explorer instead of Edge. Adding Web links. Previously in IE if I...

    A few tips on predicting

    I thought a few facts might help towards successful predicting, or perhaps not. :nope: Firstly as true Southend fans we are taught from the beginning of our supporting careers, that Southend are world beaters and that Col Ewe are the worst club in the country. Hence predicting is easy Southend...
  13. Ref Watch ....... Shrewsbury H

    We've had the better of matches against Shrewsbury over the years and we will be looking for our third win and clean sheet in a row at Roots Hall. The last two saw referees' decisions playing a big part with a red card to the Shrews and two penalties to Southend. Tomorrow's referee is the...

    iPad Advice

    I'm looking at buying an iPad to use instead of my phone at home (bigger!) and to take on holiday and maybe read books on it. I have an iPhone & iPod, so this seems natural and sensible keep it in the family, especially backing up my music. I will only use with WiFi, so a sim card is...

    Today

    With no Shrimpers in action on a Saturday, what will everyone be doing instead between 3-5? My mate got me a ticket to the rugby league challenge cup final at Wembley, never watched a rugby league match live before so looking forward to it.

    Likes, Fatso Points

    A couple of gripes here. Since 'likes' have come in, which are quick and easy, do fatso points get used any more? I'm sure the mods must have some figures on this. I actually preferred it when it was just fatso points - it meant if you liked or disliked something you had to comment on why -...

    Noel Hunt: Why I chose to join Southend United

    NOEL Hunt chose Southend United instead of Chicago in order to be able to work with Blues boss Phil Brown. More...
  18. Online ticketing - Orient Game

    I am a Season Card holder and just logged in to get ticket for Sunday and tried to charge me £12 instead of £10 for ticket - have I done something wrong - have emailed ticket office!

    Feeling good

    It's almost as if we are on a never ending feel good trip at the moment. From the 23rd May 2015 onwards stuff has been happening which in the past we could only dream of. I thought the Wembley win would be the pinnacle and we would have a so-so pre-season with the usual grumbling about lack of...

    WEMBLEY - AN UGLY SITUATION yes yet another short story

    Love them or hate them it's another one of my yarns from years gone by. All the facts are true, many did travel to Wembley for the first Cup -Final. Only the names have been changed etc, WEMBLEY – AN UGLY SITATION There was no television in 1923, and therefore there was not an abundance of...
