    Rafa Should Sign Owen

    Today, more than ever, we need to understand the importance of recycling. We live in a world of diminishing resources, held together by the discredited remains of unbridled capitalism. Only through use and re-use of our assets, can we live greener, happier lives. All the more reason, therefore...

    **warning**not for the shockable!!!

    If you don't like gruesome things don't watch this incredible bit of video http://www.nothingtoxic.com/media/1243471461/Shocking_Video_-_Indian_Man_Electrocuted_to_Death_on_Top_of_Train Get the hint from the link. Best with sound on!

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Spencer Prior

    Four places (I think) left to fill and next up is Spencer Prior, albeit a day late in Ron Martin style. -------------------------------------------------- Separated by over a decade, Spencer Prior had two very different careers with Southend. Either would be sufficient to get him in the Hall of...

    PL Weekly Points Round 55

    A bumper week for many again this week, no more so than for DoDtS who made a gallant late attempt to join his son on the winners podium following on from DtS winning the cup last week, he matched 6/6 to get an incredible 18 points and put the destiny of the SZ PL league crown in doubt till the...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Dave Smith

    This poll is really a week or so too early. The date of this poll should be 01 May, because that is the date for which Dave Smith will forever be associated with the club, for it was on 01 May 1981 that his side claimed the club's first major trophy* with a 1-1 draw against Rochdale. Dave...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Paul Sansome

    Ah-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, its Sammy! Yep, first up from the 4th round of nominations is popular goalkeeper Paul Sansome. If Sammy is elected, he'll become the third individual from the double promotion era to be elected, following in the footsteps of his manager Dave...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Alan Moody

    Next up for nomination is Alan Moody. The last two nominees, David Crown and Ricky Otto look unlikely to make it into the Hall of Fame (at least on the first ballot), probably because their glittering Southend career's were deemed too short. That is unlikely to keep Alan Moody out. In fact it...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - David Crown

    David Crown was my first footballing hero. I started watching Southend in the mid-80s, but despite constantly nagging the old man it wasn't until late 1987 that he started taking me along with him regularly. I suspect he was protecting me from the Dick Bate era. Fortunately the Bate spell was...

    Clocks

    A man died and went to heaven. As he stood in front of St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, he saw a huge wall of clocks behind him. He asked, "What are all those clocks?" St. Peter answered, "Those are Lie-Clocks. Everyone on Earth has a Lie-Clock. Every time you lie the hands on your clock will...

    SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Billy Best

    I never saw Billy Best play. What I have seen was the reverence that those who had, hold Billy Best. The mere mention of his name and fans of a certain age go all misty-eyed. I first noticed this phenomenon in 1993. I knew Stan was good, but I wasn't at that stage sure quite how good he was...

    Rusty Shackleford's X-Files: SUFC Special

    I thought I would depart from the normal RSXF theme of carl, steveo and I arguing with all the Godless lefties and discuss something which really doesn’t belong in the Pub section – my view on the current state of Southend United, both on and off the field. Steve Tilson has presided over one...
  13. Breaking News Rons Blog

    Dear Mugs, erm, fans, the past week has been a fraught time with a myriad of problems on and off the pitch. The transfer window closed and despite the incredible and superhuman efforts of myself and to a lesser degree ST, we were unable to clinch the signing of our...

    Miserable moaning old numpty

    :thumbdown: IS ANYONE ELSE FED UP WITH THE CONSTANT MOANING AND SLAGGING OFF OF OUR PLAYERS BY A MISERABLE OLD GIT IN THE WEST STAND BLOCK U SEAT H102 ? LAST NIGHT WAS A NIGHT TO BE COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY PROUD TO FOLLOW SOUTHEND AND CHEER ON A FABULOUS BLUES PERFORMANCE BUT LAST NIGHTS...
  15. All the Chelsea Positives

    OK, a bit disappointing we lost after such a brave couple of performances, but what do we expect playing one of the richest clubs in the world? Let's list all of the positives on this thread, because I think there are so many. To start us off: 1 Tilly & Brush have proved that they can play...

    I just had the most amazing dream

    Incredible! I dreamt that little SUFC got drawn away to one of the top and most expensive sides IN THE WORLD in our leading domestic cup competition and after weathering the storm for 90 minutes we came up the other end to nick an equaliser. 8000 Shrimpers went wild but there was still time...

    Tilly and Brush - going nowhere

    Oh my God - yes it's (yet) another Steve Tilson thread... and I would like to say that in making this I am only too well aware that this is a public forum and everyone is entitled to their opinion. But Christ there is a lot of tripe spouted on here. OK, lets start just by recapping on two...

    Secret of success

    I think sometimes both our clubs are in danger of making this league more difficult than it has to be. Yes you respect your opponents but not too much. NO team in this league is un-beatable. From the games I have seen the key to winning games is getting the very basics right. You need two strong...
  19. A blatantly racist-stereotype joke.

    An Oirish Story. An Irishman goes to the Doctor with botty problems.... 'Dactor, it's me ahrse. I'd loik ya ta teyhk a look, if ya woot'. So the doctor gets him to drop his pants and takes a look. 'Incredible'he says, 'there is a £20 note lodged up here.' Tentatively...

    Question Why no special mention for Johnny Herd?

    Why is there no special mention for Johnny Herd. He deserves his own thread on here. His first league start was nothing short of incredible. Real confidence and ability. Well done Johnny
