    The Bench

    Have not seen it mentioned in the numerous threads, but did anyone think the choice of those on the bench was terrible and total bizarre? I appreciate that we do not have a defender ready to play at the moment (other than the four playing), but would it not make sense to have Grant on the bench...
  2. Kenny

    Keegan

    Can't believe Kev has been vilified for his comments about the state of the Premiership which were pretty much on the money for me. Before a balls been kicked in August you just know who the top 4 are, Granted Everton have been knocking on the door for a couple of years but usually more down to...

    OD - Week 14

    A win will see me finish 4th and avoid the need for a play-off. I'm expecting to win reasonably comfortably but taking nothing for granted. To be honest a defeat wouldn't be the end of the world as I'd be confident in a play-off for the second season running but knowing my luck I'd come up...
  4. Update from training ground : Wed 7/5/08

    Dont think I've ever seen such a large first team squad training at Boots and Laces ! Maher took full part and looked as capable as ever .. Scannell took full part which was a bit of a surprise as I thought he told someone on here on Saturday that he was injured , also a surprise to me that...
  5. Anthony Grant - Where is he?

    Anthony Grant seems to have 'disappeared' since the Tranmere game, can anyone shed some light on his whereabouts?
  6. Defensive Cover

    Just seen on the official site that Grant's loan spell expires after tomorrow's game. http://www.southendunited.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10444~1297669,00.html Without Grant plus Wilson and Hunt injured what options would we have if either Barrett, Clarke, Mulgrew and Francis were...

    Avram Grant’s so-called press conference

    When I saw the transcript of Avram Grant’s so-called press conference I wondered what all the fuss was about. That’s what he’s always like. Not for nothing does he always dress in black. Every Chelsea game I’ve covered this season, and for my sins there have been many, he shuffles into the room...
  10. How much longer...

    are we going to play Tommy Black for? The guy has had a number of stinkers in the last few weeks and the time has surely come to drop him for grant/moussa/walker (on the wing with Revell upfornt). He is overweight, loses the ball constantly and does not scare defenders one bit

    Northampton - from an ex-exiled shrimper!

    Evening all, I don't post on any messageboards anymore but browse from time to time and use to post on here a bit. Anyway, I've been away travelling for a year or so, Swansea was first game since being back, and today my second. To maybe give a bit of perspective I thought I'd leave my thoughts...
  12. Ratings thread

    Here we go - Flavs - 7 - Not a lot to do, made one sharp save. No chance with goal Francis - 7 - Bit quieter than of late todsay but made one vital tackle in the 2nd half (?). Clarke/ Barrett - 7 - Solid if not spectacular. Adepieyo gave them problems all afternoon Mulgrew - 8 - Best player on...
  13. Ref Watch ... Northampton

    I promised you largely non-intervention refereeing from Grant Hegley on Tuesday and that's pretty much what we got. He didn't get everything right but he let the players get on with it with the minimum of input from him which worked well. Can't promise you the same for Saturday though with...
  14. Enough's enough - Tilson Out

    Haven't we shown enough loyalty to Tilson - just because he's a local bloke and likes Southend? He can't just live off past glories. The only reason he did well for us was because he got lucky with Eastwood. The performances are gutless, the players do not play as a team, we don't score enough...

    Chelsea scramble through

    Chelsea scrambled into the semi-finals of the Champions League with a 2-0 victory over Zico's Fenerbahce that was anything but comfortable, either for the club or for those unfortunate enough to be watching. The continual criticism of their minimalist style of football can be tedious, but you...
