    December is a busy time of year over here in England. There's Christmas shopping to be done, Christmas decorations to be arranged, Christmas trees to be purchased. In short, there's a whole lot of Christmas going on. Most of us spend these early weeks of the month constructing an enormous...

    McClaren's pre-Croatia match notes leaked

    Shamelessly stolen from another forum, but I don't care :D Mc – Right, Tel, thanks to Israel I can still get us through to the Euros and can’t afford any mistakes. Goalkeeper – who’s the best in the country? TV – Rob Green Mc – Don’t know him. Is he in the squad? TV – No. Mc – Who have we got...

    Spikeys View and Ratings

    Carson - 4 - Nightmare for the first goal. Looked shaky all night but did one quality save in the second half. It will take him a long time to get over this. Peter Bonnetti? Richards - 5 - This guy is quality. However, didn't have his best game last night. Who did though? Campbell & the...

    Fed up, rather then boycotting home games I am going to boycott Shrimperzone

    What is it with certain people on this forum, do they expect us to win every week, and be playing in Europe. I spend far too much time reading this forum, and to be honest I am getting sick of Wiggy, TMWLT and many others just wasting my time by having to read the rubbish they are writing...

    Uncyclopedia

    Not sure if it's been mentioned here before but if you haven't seen it, it's a damn funny read. Nowt like made up stuff!! Uncyclopedia Example: SAN DIEGO, California -- President Bush, after being asked for a federal response to the wildfires that are engulfing several regions of California...
  9. My current top five hates

    After England's great result last night and the fact that it's only Thursday, i'm in a negative mood today (could you tell?). So, here are my top five things to hate at the moment and why... 1. Facebook. Fed up of people talking about it. I'm pretty much the only person out of my friends who...
  10. Tilly in Loan market

    The loan market opens again in a couple of days, and Tilly said he would like to bring in another forward. 1. Do we need another forward on loan? 2. Shouldnt we give our current forwards a go at striking up a partnership, rather than changing it all the time? Bringing in a forward in...

    Helen Mirren comes to Leigh

    Signing at a bookshop it seems. If reports are to be believed she's described her birthplace, or more accurately Southend as a ****hole. Now whether it's true or not I'd rather some ugly old slapper of a celebrity (that for some inexplicable reason gets middle aged men all hot and flustered)...

    New boy

    First I'll lay my cards on the table and say that i'm a Chelsea supporter or should i say a disillutioned one and before anyone asks i'm not the nutter who was wearing a chelsea shirt at the game tonight :D Ive started watchching southend quite by acident after my son was chosen to be a ball...

    Time for changes! Tilson and Brush out!

    Not been on since last week, and having read through all these threads since then and including Saturday's game i'm even more keen for for Tilson and Brush to depart. I dont care what anyone says, we're heading down to league two. Tilson and Brush have taken us as far as they can. We need...
  14. Tilly reveals failed targets

    This has probably already been covered as it was on the echo website a few days back but I'm out of the country so let me off. Just been reading the article "Tilly still in hunt for a striker" and some names were mentioned as to who we've tried for. Jermaine Beckford from Leeds, obviously Roy...
  15. Tonights Ratings

    Flavs - 7, some good blocks and dealt with a lot of set pieces fairly well Hunt - 7, unspectacular but solid. linked up well in the 2nd half and was good as the last man Richards - 6.5, nervy start but got into it as the game progressed. passing isn't great Barrett - 7, started poorly but an...

    Defender's

    You wouldn't want to be a defender at the club at the moment. They've been made to watch video's of recent matches to analyse any mistakes. At least we only get to see it once.

    Darryl Interview

    I had a look through the Summer edition of "Saints Magazine" in my local supermarket the other day, to see if they had any mention of that memorable day in May, the last game of the season. They didn't. Not even in the Alan Ball tribute. But they did feature an interview with our very own...

    10 reasons why Tilson should stay regardless of what happens this season

    1. Colin Murphy (1992-93) - crap manager, boring defensive long ball tactics never worked. 2. Barry Fry (1993) - as he wasn't Southend he betrayed us at the first opportunity, unsettling all the remaining players for the rest of that season and the following season. 3. Peter Taylor (1993-95) -...
  19. Take a deep breath.

    OK, i taken a long deep breath and thought of some possible reasons why we have lost so convincingly today, First - Missing our most inspirational player. Maher controls the game when he plays. Any team missing such a vital figure will struggle. Second - we played a decent team today who...

    Is it me or do I detect some frustration

    Reading Paul Brush comments on the website the following comments caught my eye "we made an enquiry a weeks ago after Simon Francis' injury and for us a week is quite a quick transfer or temporary transfer in this case" "it will be good if we can have a close liasion with clubs like Arsenal...
