    Michael Owen: The End of an Era

    Just found this piece on a football fans site, it isn't written by a Liverpool or Newcastle fan but it sums the downfall of his career well. Thought it was worth a read.

    My end of season review.

    I was asked to write a review for college about a subject that inspired me, I didn't necessarily have to talk about how it inspired me but I just had to compile a 2000 word essay. So I chose to do a season review. Well here we are at the end of another season, although in the end we can feel...

    Joke 18+

    Paddy and Murphy arrive at a fancy dress party. The theme was emotions. Most people dressed in colours associated with feelings. Red - anger, Green - envy, Yellow - cowardice. They looked shockeed to see Paddy naked with his ****lodged in a pear and Murphy with his **** in a bowl of custard...

    Prove You're Not A Cheat

    As Cristiano Ronaldo lay on the frozen turf at St James Park watching a chorus line of tiny birds circling his head, I wonder if he had time to ponder the irony of his situation. After years spent convincing referees that he had been fouled when he hadn't, he now finds himself being cynically...

    The Strife of Riley

    You have to take your consolations where you can in life. On an evening when he was bellowed at by Southampton's manager Jan Poortvliet and widely abused by over 30,000 home fans, Mike Riley should draw solace from the fact that he lives in Leeds, some 205 miles away from the St Mary's Stadium...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Chris Powell

    Fighting Talk on Radio 5 Live has a segment called Defending the Indefensible where pundits or comedians (note Mark Lawrensen the two are separate) are given an outrageous statement that they have to somehow justify for 30 seconds of airtime. Now I've always fancied my chances of playing devil's...

    Sir Bobby Robson

    a real shame but it seems to have been on the cards for a while. From the Sun website. ----------- BOBBY ROBSON has won countless battles during a career which has earned him a permanent place in the nation’s hearts. But his latest fight, sadly, will be his last. English football’s favourite...
  10. Supporting Southend

    As a kid growing up I found myself supporting Arsenal. Watching them lift the Cup Winners Cup started this short love affair with a big gun. At this time I had never even heard of Southend United. Even tho my grandad supported them he never spoke of the mighty blues, having supported them...

    Chelsea fans will feel crushed today

    Thanks guys, really glad you liked it! Here's the follow-up: High up near the rafters of the Luzhniki Stadium, as the early morning rain washed away the tears of his expensively assembled superstars, the Super Tsar himself, Roman Abramovich, sat disconsolately wondering what might have been...

    Come back Melslack

    It is your time to take our emotions in your grasp again, return and fill our lives with rumours. Come'th the hour, come'th the Slack. In Slack we trust. It was Mel Slack that had all the inside knowledge wasn't it, if not what a tit I feel like now.

    Best to wait until the dust settles

    I decided against posting last night when I got back, for 2 reasons really, 1 I was ridiculously tired, and 2. it's not always a good idea to post on here when emotions are runing high after a game such as that..... However, afrer a nights sleep (well a few hours) my opinion hasn;t changed...

    Metal Monday Pt.22

    Not sure on the quality of vid on this one at the moment, if it's rubbish I'll upload a better alternative at home where I can actually see the vid. Anyway going back to the mid-90s and New York for this week's pick. A unique band often being quoted as 'being ahead of their time'. A...
  15. What are our supporters really like?

    This is not designed to be yet another Matt Harrold thread, but I am using Matt Harrold for the poll as he seems to stir emotions as to what we feel as a Southend fan. I've been concerned with some of the things I've read on here. We may all differ with our opinions, but I hope the vast...

    Sleeping Through The Dawn of Capello

    There’s something very special about setting your alarm to go off a couple of hours early and slipping out of bed to watch the sun come up. It’s uplifting to watch a new dawn break, with a mug of coffee in your hand. To think about the possibilities and the opportunities, to convince yourself...
  17. Is it me or are we turning against each other

    I don’t know if it is just me or other folk have noticed it as well but there appears to be an increase in fellow SZ members turning on one and other. I don’t mean healthy constructive discussions or a good dose of humorous sarcasm, i mean comments like “F**K off and support another club” and...

    Fake boobs

    Now that's got everyone's attention .. :finger: .. I need to consult the views of the SZ community on this delicate issue. As like many people on here who, like me, work in an office environment, amongst all the daily chores of actually doing some work, mind-numbing meetings and the endless...
  19. Looking forward

    Obviously we are all disappointed at being relegated and i guess we all have opinions on why it happened, but you know what, looking back over the year it has still been an exciting season. Yes we may not have been good enough but there has been some great highs and lows (and some very lows)...
