    The Curse of The Shrimps - Morecambe

    So, if Jeremy Kyle can't do the trick, a reminder below, then what does Phil Brown have up his sleeves this time? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2316032/Jeremy-Kyle-gives-team-talk-Southend-United.html Is any publicity good publicity? I am not so sure... but perhaps someone...

    Prosser to make 100th league appearance against Morecambe

    Fantastic achievement for Luke. Came to us in 2010 as a 22-year-old and always looked like a squad player at best and a bit of a liability at times; never really expected him to break through like he has. Has now developed into a real leader on the pitch and is easily one of our most consistent...

    The Roots Hall 'roar'

    So yesterday I finally moved in to my house. Long time coming, only minutes from the ground yet no chance of attending today. Way too soon after moving in, with so much to do (said the mrs). No point even mentioning it to her (though I still did). New area, new life and 'new' local football...
  4. Ref Watch ...... AFC Wimbledon away JPT

    After Mr Malone's excesses on Saturday, the man in charge of our JPT opening round is Charles Breakspear from very nearby Walton-on-Thames. In his second year, he has refereed us just once before in the home defeat by Morecambe last season - a red for them and a yellow apiece (Timlin for us)...

  6. Results Round Up

    Blues or Shrimpers?

    How do you refer to Southend United? I personally prefer Shrimpers. It is a nickname unique to us (Morecambe are Shrimps i believe) and has been around for decades. I think there was a cartoon character Pa Shrimper? used in the Southend Standard after WW2. we have a shrimp on our club crest...

    Next Season - Will the league be easier or harder

    I know its early days, but thinking about next season and how we might fair, taking into account the teams coming up from the conference and coming down from League One. Personally I think the bookies will make us one of the favorites, and our odds wont be as generous as this season, so who...
  9. Emotion of Football and next season.

    The Sky pundit said it best, "The emotion of football is either elation or utter disappointment, there's nothing in between" The power of football emotion again strikes my house in sunny Erie, PA, very down right now. Club needs to set an agenda quickly for next year. Selling Bentley...

    Another season in League 2 - and another trip to Morecambe

    If Gateshead go up and Fleetwood stay down, that's a mere 8,500 miles on the road next season. Time to change the Bentley, Ron ?
  11. Ref Watch PLAY-OFF Burton A 1st Leg

    The referee for Sunday's match is Oliver Langford from Darlaston, near Walsall in the West Midlands. I understand play-off appointments are made from the top of the "merit list" for officials, so he's obviously had a good season. He is however a referee I would always prefer to see doing home...

  13. Away Games - Badges/Shirts?

    Its possible this thread will be moved, but since going to Morecambe last month, I decided to start buying pin badges from each ground, as a keepsake (as well as a programme of course!) to say "i've been there". I know some people who used to buy the opposition team's shirt from their club...
  14. Sufc pin badges

    Hi everyone. im new to the forum but certainly not new to supporting my beloved blues. i started going in 1979 with my dad at the bloody cold snowy game we played against Liverpool. my memory is not great about the game but that was it, I wanted more of it. i first started going alone in 1983...

    11 matches to go and everything to play for

    Despite the understandable doom and gloom, the fact remains that we are still right in the promotion race and with several fixtures left against clubs above us (who also have several games against each other), anything could still happen. As others have said it will be typical of us after...
  16. Stubborn Phil throwing it away!

    Another defeat yet for whatever reason Phil will not change it and it's now become ridiculous . 2 months ago we looked capable of securing an auto spot but that has long since gone and now we are in grave danger of being mid table as the pack hunt us down. Game after game slips by whilst Phil...
  17. Pre-Match Thread Morecambe vs Southend United, Sat 8th March

    We must all be bored with the football - it's Friday and no pre-match thread!
