  1. Hey fellow Shrimpers!

    Hi As you can probably tell my name is James and despite the fact I joined back in 2011, I haven't really done all that much on the forums. I've been supporting the Blues ever since I became interested in football in early 2010 and my first match was the rather boring 0-0 with Exeter on 13th...
  2. It's in our own hands

    A very quick glance at the fixture list (if wrong you will tell me!) indicates that we have to play all the other sides in the top nine in the table either home or away, starting with Shrewsbury away on Saturday week. It is a tired old cliche to say it is in our own hands but never more apposite...

  4. Question question for Chris Philips to ask!

    Come on Chris Philips be a proper reporter and when interviewing Phil Brown ask him the question most supporters would like an answer too. " what is going on between Phil Brown and Connor Clifford, that he cannot get a game with SUFC anymore" Come on Chris show us you really are a reporter and...
  5. Any Army, ex army on here? Can you tell me why?

    Just watched a programme on the Afghan war. So they are out on patrol, and have a fire fight with 4 taliban. The kill 3 of the taliban and the other escapes and they can't see him. So they call in the Apache helicopter. They fire one smoke flair to show where the taliban fighter is, and the...
  6. Question Essex Senior Cup - Team Choices

    Essex Senior Cup tomorrow evening, just a thought, what would you prefer, to use this as yet another confidence boosting exercise for the 'first team', or give some of the youngsters a run out to see if they may be anywhere near ready? As you may be able to tell by this - and my other posts - I...
  7. The Quality Of The Posts and Respect For Others

    I have previously only posted once. Unfortunately I am unable to make very many home games, and use this forum to find out news and more importantly the views of us the fans. The post match threads are invaluable. They enable those who cannot make a game, feel what happened. The...

  10. What is going on?

    Probably not the best time to post immediately after another frustrating match but here goes. After threatening to change the team and doing nothing Phil finally shakes things up and brings Jack Payne in to the team. He has a threatening shot after a few minutes and gets our goal. Any threat on...

    Short corners

    Why, someone tell me, do we persist with short corners? Offside from one yesterday (!), two failed to get the ball across, yet their short corner resulted in a goal as did the Crewe one at Wembley. They don't work!

    Question Youth teams

    Would it be possible for a sub forum or a sticky thread set up for our youth teams so people can post updates scores upcoming talent from our youth teams in one place? I had a search on here and couldnt find anything but if this has already been done could someone point me in the right...

    carlisle v derby

    I know Derby are a good championship but someone tell me we aren't as bad as Carlisle. They have been woeful. Reminds me of a late 90s blues.

    Mark Phillips

    http://www.echo-news.co.uk/sport/11185922._/? The last paragraph interests me, did he choose not to return or did Phil tell him not to bother?
  17. Question What's the longest we have ever gone without a win?

    This run of results is about as poor as I can remember in 30 years of supporting the Blues. Last years end of season was poor, I have managed to erase much of the late 90's/ early 2000's from my memory, and no one who watched Southend under Ronnie Whelan, Alvin Martin or Dick Bate will have...
  18. Question Did anyone else see Phil Brown on the Sport Relief programme last night ?

    Just channel hopping last night and caught a few minutes of something on BBC3 ( I think ) where Managers tell jokes. Only caught a little bit , but included in that was our very own Manager. Too long to tell the whole joke here , but it was broadly about an Octogenarian sperm donation - I love...
  19. Question Phil Brown's media work - is it getting in the way?

    PB seems to be cropping up with increasing regularity on BBC 5-live, Sky, ITV etc. Maybe more time concentrating on Southend might improve our results Phil! Is his media work getting in the way of his work as our manager? maybe he's looking to change career? Am I the only one getting bored of...

    Michael Adebolaja appeal - why?

    I just don't get it. Why is this man being allowed the appeal here? Bang to rights, video evidence, admitted his part and yet the Human Rights bleeding hearts lot say he's entitled to an appeal. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25961430 FFS, why??? The most senior judge in the land should just...
