    Chairman's vote of thanks?

    Come Monday I'll be expecting to see an announcement from the Chairman on the OS thanking our fans for their magnificent support at Doncaster. After all RM was quick enough to remind people of the importance of the game-and to lay on free coaches to be fair. Now our fantastic fans deserve their...

    Film website

    A friend of mine is setting up a movie website over the weekend and he asked me to write a review of a film that, in my opinion, has been ruthlessly over-looked by critics and cinema audiences alike. He's very eager for material and I know that there's a lot of immensely talented writers on...

    David James

    It is a testament to David James' resilience that he has worked so hard to overcome his injury in time for today's FA Cup Final, but the lure of the big game is only part of his motivation. James, for all of his heroics this season, is more aware than most that when it comes to the FA Cup Final...

    Back from Gresty....

    ... and what a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon it was too! I thought the first half performance was the best 45 minutes football Southend have played for a long, long time... certainly the best this season. They were 1st to every ball, never allowed Crewe a second on the ball, were a yard...

  5. Fundamentals @ Fossetts

    Have not seen any threads on what may be of some importance at new stadium. The surface at RH has always been an excellent one on which to play good football, quick draining and flat. Will the new pitch be as good ? Often it is the sunlight & even covering of natural water coverage which...

    Capello - Will He Be Allowed To Win?

    Judging by the amount of hastily cobbled together puns on Fabio Capello's name in this morning's British tabloids, it now seems certain that the former Real Madrid boss will be named as the new England manager by the time you read this. Either that, or the Football Association's press officer...

    Who would be YOU?

    Whilst making the most of my unrelenting, fast-paced SBH social life at the weekend - okay, so a group of us went down 't curry house - one of the lads asked a question to which I was dismayed to discover the answer to. The question was simply this: When the money-men of Hollywood decide to...

    Steve Tilson on BBC Essex

    Just interviewed. Most interesting comment when asked how Collis played he said that is the best he's played so far and justifyied it by saying he claimed a lot of crosses, before only then going onto mention the good saves he made. Its very reassuring to hear our manager recognise the...

    My team!

    Ok, Ok, i'll admit it, i have been a little bit coy about my team over the past season or so, so i thought i would come clean as i need some advice about what to do next! First up, my WK who is (well, will be!) handy with the stick in his hand! Craig Browne - 18 yo, BT Rating=26,455 Stamina...

  10. Frendlies. Should we be getting excited?

    Of course I understand the importance of pre season frendlies. An ideal chance for trialists, players on the fringe of the first 11, match fitness and confidence etc. I am surprised so many people are getting excited by the results. Witham Town, Great Wakering and now Canvey. Sure its great...

    Level of honesty on the Official Site

    You can't win eh? Last year, there we were, all moaning that the Club rarely let us know what was going on with potential signings and getting more and more frustrated at the apparent lack of interest in joining our beloved side (even though we all knew this almost certainly wasn't the case...

    Preston v Southend - match report

    Sorry, it's a bit late but this is the first chance I've had to do the official SZ match report for yesterday. It is often said in football that the true test of character of a team is how they bounce back from a demoralising defeat and if a vast majority of supporters were highly critical...

    Now for Barnsley

    There are a number of comments about this on various threads but as this match is now of such extreme importance , thought it would be worth starting a new thread where we can share our hopes and feelings . I said elsewhere that we should not under-estimate Barnsley - a bit of a bogey team to...

    What's the real reason?

    Todays defeat hurt. Not because it was against Col U, although there are no doubt some on here that think that if we only won 2 games all season as long as they were against Col U then that would be ok. It hurt because of the stage of the season we are at and the importance of those three...

  15. Rebuilding required ?

    Forget this season, i'm afraid that despite there being in excess of 20 matches left, we will not avoid relegation - cue the rose-tinted glasses brigade to fire all kinds of unpleasantries in my direction Quite simply, we can no longer blame bad luck, for while the side does have the...

  16. Stop Living in the Past!

    I do not understand why so many fans seem willing to write this season off and are therefore not bothered by our current form. Many fans are almost willing us to get relegated just so the club can return to the days of playing Macclesfield / Barnet and attracting 3500 people a game. We are a...

    Got the latest (3rd so far) letter from Uncle Ron this morning. He is 'pleased to let you know that the Club has recieved a positive reaction to its proposed new stadium plans'. He also encloses a fantastic new pic of one of the sides of the stadium. Most importantly, he encloses information...

    New Stadium

    Darryl's injury

    I'm fairly amazed that this has barely been mentioned by anyone on here after the game. In fact, I also think that's fairly fortunate for the ref who had as bad a first half as us with precious little support from his linesmen. Even second half, one incident where the most blatant QPR...
