Wembley: A Nation(al Stadium) divided?
As a stadium, I still feel entirely undecided about Wembley. It's most impressive outside, lit up at night - a glowing beacon calling sports fans to its central hub. And it's a very slick operation, delivering colossal volumes of food and drink at breakneck speed, being very sensibly laid out...- seany t

SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - Ricky Otto
Next up for election to the Hall of Fame is Ricky Otto. Ricky Otto had it all: skill, flair and funny looking hair. He was signed by B****y F*y for £100,000, a fee that seems suspiciously high for a Leyton Orient reserve. I won't make any libellous suggestions about brown envelopes...- Yorkshire Blue

Memory Lane SZ's Southend United Hall of Fame - - Sid Broomfield has passed away RIP Sid
When I suggested we should have on SZ a Hall of Fame to recognise the true legends of Southend United, I wanted us to recognised those individuals who helped build the club.

...well it MIGHT do since we have games coming up thick and fast, our team isn't functioning as a unit, we have no quality on the bench to shake things up and so many of our better quality loanees have returned to their clubs (even if in some cases this might not be for too long).
