  1. Ref Watch ..... Oldham

    Man in charge on Saturday is Keith Hill from Hertfordshire. He is the FA's Regional Referees Manager for the East of England. Does that mean he is a top official? I'm afraid not. He is in his 12th season and is, in my opinion, way past his best (which wasn't very good anyway). I'm sure his...
  2. Ken Buchanan

    Before my time, but apparantly the best boxer to come out of Scotland is preparing to get back into the ring in unlicenced fights at the age of 63 due to chronic poverty. Two failed marriages and a collapsed business venture have left him destitute. A fight against a younger, fitter man will...

    FC - Match 7

    Should have looked at the weather. They are at full strength and are fitter than us after our weekend GFI. Welcome to Garon Park for the match between ShrimperZone CC and Murphys Sweaty Box. We can tell you that ShrimperZone CC won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking quite...
  4. Dead Rats in Ricketts bag

    A mystery joker at League One side Walsall has been leaving dead rats in their team-mates' washbags - including that of former England striker Michael Ricketts. (Daily Mirror) The rat is still probably fitter than Ricketts

    My Quick Opinion / Travel

    Well, we was totally outclassed by a better team and it seemed to me like Coppinger is the new Joe Cole. The stadium was pretty impressive although the stewards are stupidly strict and pretty silly but overall wasn't too bad. The support was absolutley awesome, to think of chanting, bouncing...

    Lee Barnard song?

    Apologies if this song already exists (I haven't heard it yet in the east stand) but reading an article about Jimmy Bullard at Fulham made me think that we could adopt this song.....to the tune of que sara sara (what will be will be) Lee Barnard, Barnard He's better than Steve Gerrard His...

    Radio's banned in the workplace!

    Well i just couldn't believe it! Today we had an email come round our work that from now the playing of a radio is banned. Something to do with the performing rights society, and infringing copyright laws as more than 5 people can listen to it! Has anyone else had this bombshell dropped on...
  8. The Shrimpertruth - more Karma comebacks - the FA Cup

    Funny old world as "no end product" JCR dumps us out and the value of quality players is rammed down our necks. A player who was an outstanding individual talent and a committted team player, JCR ,left SUFC with hardly a thank you and turns up to win 60k prize money plus another FA cup tie for...

    Kitchen / Bathroom Fitter

    We'll soon be moving into a new flat and need a new bathroom and kitchen. Can anyone here recommend a person / company?

    Fitness Levels

    With the game going into extra time last night it was a chance to see how fit our players really are, and I have to say that IMO we looked in good shape. I know that these guys are professional footballers and they should be expected to be able to run around for 90+ minutes, but a number of...

    Views on players at Chelmsford

    After reading some mixed views on last nights performance's here is my take on the players on show last night and whether they will make the first eleven this season. Keeper- bit unlucky to conceaded 3 as pulled of 4 very good saves, would like to see him again. Hunt - i get frustrated with...
  13. Billy Paynter Fights for his Place

    http://www.thisissouthend.co.uk/display.var.1532067.0..php Good news in my opinion. He's certainly the forward with the most experience at this level and more than deserves his chance with us. Reading the article, he seems determined to prove his worth and that's exactly the type of attitude we...

    The fbm view and ratings - Col U

    HATS OFF TO CURETON AS EWES THRASH SORRY SOUTHEND At 3pm today, the Southend team were completely fired up and ready to do battle with their Essex counterparts in an absolute must win game at Roots Hall. The only problem was that the match kicked off at 12:30. Unfortunately Southend had...

    Tilly's signings for the Championship

    Shouldn't Tilly have signed at least a couple of players from reserve sides in the Premiership?  There must be lots of talent sitting in the reserves that would be willing to play first team football in the ccc. Or should he have looked in to getting a couple of fringe players from the...
  16. Matt Harrold

    True to my word I feel it is extremely necessary to post on here that I was WRONG about Harrold. So much so infact that I am questioning whether or not he actually is the same bloke who looked so dreadful in the games I lined in over at Harlow Town in 2002. I see Dave Kitson's not in the Reading...
  17. Tilly on Talksport

    Tilly was on the breakfast show about 07-20 this morning. He said he was happy with the way things have gone so far in pre season. Stated we had not picked up any injuries-what about Ricketts He also said that Ricketts could be a real gem when the club get him fitter. But the most interesting...

    Ratings

    As FBM is away, we need to cover his absence.     My personal ratings: Flahavan 7: Made 2 smart stops including a very good reaction stop from the free kick on the 18 yard line. He came for a couple of free kicks well and was generally very sound. Hunt 6: After a decent performance against...
  19. Match ratings

    Just a few thoughts on last night. It was an outstanding team performance with us defending as a unit and taking them on the counter attack. Committment was good and tactics were spot on. Flahavan 8 - Looked very solid again, made some excellent saves and was in very good spirits all night...
  20. General observations

    Cant disagree with the views of individuals performances , thought Barret and Bentley were superb ! However : 1) Why did our players keep slipping over , I would have thought the choosing the right stud was not to difficult ( Wrexham seemed to manage ) 2) Thought they looked fitter than us (...
