  1. New Driving Laws being enforced in England

    Due to the nature of the quality of driving in England a new scheme has been devised in order to identify poor drivers. From the middle of May 2006 those drivers who are seen:- -overtaking in dangerous places; -hovering within one inch of the car in front; -stopping sharply; -speeding in...

    Freddy

    I know it's Mr Goaters day, but what a fantastic season it has been for freddy this year. It would be great if we could get the 'de de de de da Freddy Eastwood' chant going before he scores tomorrow. In my view, when interviewed both this season and last he has always expressed a...

    End of season Syndrome

    We as a club generally just do not play that well in the last 4 matches of the season. In our 2 relegation seasons, we got 1 and 2 points from the 12 available. Last year, we got 4 and blew automatic promotion, but got through the play offs. Lets look at the other promotion and relegation...

    Where will the competition come from?

    Six games to go and it's pretty tense. We're in an excellent position, 6 points clear and with 4 of our 6 remaining games at home.  Some bookies have stopped taking bets on us and the rest of the division has conceded that we're up. In fact, the only people who don't seem to think we're up is...

    Centenary Merchandise

    Seeing as the club do now tend to notice (mostly) when the fans come up with some good ideas, what kind of merchandise would you hope would be available to celebrate our impending centenary season? I personally would really like a coffee-mug (not one of those horrible oversize latte things...

  6. Freddy, we MUST re-sign him

    I know that God has 2 years left on his contract with us but i think this needs to be extended for a further 2 possibly 3 years. i know this is unheard of at our level but i think it must be done. Why ? . well If it wasnt for Freddy we would still be in league 2 and now we are on the verge of...

  7. Can we do it?

    With ten games to go I have tried to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of Southend’s promotion push. Strengths We are six points clear from second spot and seven clear from third place. In comparison to our closest rivals the Shrimpers have an arguably ‘easier’ run-in. Swansea and Col...

  8. Promotion Choices

    Now this is not to say i think we'll get promotion, this is just a poll to see what people would prefer out of the two options... Obviously, Beating Col******r in the Play-Off final would be the sweetest victory, but winning the league has a greater financial benefit to the club... What...

  10. Day Trippers

    Why do we see so many references in so many threads calling fellow supporters of Southend United repeat UNITED ( look at and think what that word means) in a derogatory manner DAY TRIPPERS ? Is it some form of fan snobery ? Do those that use the term do so to show that they think they are more...

    Reasons to be cheerful

    I was just reading Jamie Lawson&#39;s interview on the Official Site, and this comment in particular really leapt out at me: <span style='color:blue'>&quot;Shaun was so good to me today, he was always talking to me and helping me out - never having a go - and I&#39;ve learnt so much off him...

    Adam Barrett at left back?

    This isn&#39;t intended to reopen the pro/anti Che debate, but with Eagle playing so well and Barrett&#39;s relative lack of stature (for a centre back) having been exposed a few times this season I wonder it might be worth considering a back line of Barret-Prior-Edwards-Hunt. I thought that in...

    Hello all- i'm sure you lot are looking forward to the new season with anticipation.  I know we are after a very positve pre season.  We are pretty confident that we can threaten the top 6 after last years injury-ravaged disaster of a campaign.  Congratulations on your promotion and i hope you...

  15. Leon C

    Just read a good post from Kenny about his memories of the last seven years and it he referred to the loss of Leon Cort and the Constantine fellow. Which was the greater loss? Take your pick. In Constantine we had found our first 20+ scorer for some time and many felt that loss would hurt our...

  16. Lincoln are beating us already

    As of 5pm, Lincoln had sold over 6,000 whereas our sales are only over 2,000. Also, they&#39;re ticket office is open to 9pm tonight whereas ours closes at 6pm so the difference will be even greater come close of play.

  17. Transfers.

    Undisclosed fees. Whats that about? Surely at some point the books would have to reveal the figure so why not tell us. It would bolster the fans to know how much the club have dipped into their pocket and give us a better indication of the clubs ambition. That said. Well done SUFC. The new...

  18. Is Tilson our best manager ever?

    Dave Webb is still our best ever manager but Tilson is closing in as the greatest. I think if Tilson gets us promotion this year it would be a greater achievement than going up to the old 2nd Division. He took over last year with the club in a total mess and in real danger of going out of the...

    Well, as I predicted, I sucessfully &quot;threw&quot; my 3rd round cup tie... but it&#39;s all in the cause of the greater good. My 2nd XI only lost 4-1 away whilst PiC, so I&#39;m more than happy about that - especially with no injuries (touch wood) and only a couple of bookings. TS is now...
