    We should beat Crawley

    Went to the Crawley vs Redbridge game yesterday and really didn't see anything to fear. The 5-0 scoreline flattered them. Redbridge had done very well to get to round 2 but they are a very poor team and they actually managed to play some half decent football against Crawley in periods, this is...

    RIP Seth Putnam

    As much as nobody really ever liked his band, they did some funny stuff, admitted it was all a big joke and even when he ended up in a coma turned it into a big joke. So, Seth Putnam, lead singer of the only band with a name that won't clear the SZ swear filter, so I'll refer to them simply as...

    Have we turned the corner 1 year on?

    Cast your minds back to July 2010. The negatives: We had just been relegated to League Two. We had just lost Steve Tilson. We had been in court several times that season. Players were going unpaid regularly. Pretty much all the squad had gone and we were in danger of not fulfilling our...

    Best relegation fight ever?

    My interest in the Premier League is never much more than as a casual observer other than following Wolves' results due to my dad being a fan. However this season is gearing up to be a cracker as the season turns for home. Not at the top, Man Utd will almost certainly win it and the top 4 look...
  7. Efe Sodje: Warrior

    Hadn't seen this covered, but Sodje played 70 minutes for Bury at the weekend in spite of a broken arm because they had nobody else. Warrior.
  8. Question Blame ?

    Question Does BarnaBlue talk bollocks?

    http://www.shrimperzone.com/vb/showthread.php?64961-Does-Cyberbullying-exist-on-SZ/page9 Barnablue reckons that there are only half a dozen people that think he talks bollocks. I reckon twenty. Private poll, so nobody feels peer pressure from either side :hilarious:

    Convict open

    Did I hear correctly when someone said that nobody has taken more than 3 games in a single set off of Murray so far. Of course he'll still probably go out in the quarters/semis to an inspired performance, but that's still seriously impressive.

    A rant.

    1. Chanting '****ing Useless to our own player who puts his ****ing heart into his performances, doing what nobody else wants to do, the ****ing dirty work. 2. Cheering when Rhys Evans catches the ball. Brilliant. 3. Constant moaning. 4. Chanting the Seagull louder than anything else. 5...
  12. Fitness levels

    A lot of the gloom and doom on here is mis-placed. Realistically, this was always going to be a transitional season and hopes of a quick return to League 1 were fanciful. If Sturrock pulls that off with the barriers he's had put in place, he really will be an all-time legend. But I am very...
  13. In praise of Sturrock

    So, after encouraging players to come to Southend to build a squad, creating a sense of competition and therefore some need to perform on the pitch (other than to fulfill a contract that pays an enormous wage by giving very little in terms of effort for the club), fielding a team that really...

    We all want what's best for southend?

    Do we? Some of the absolute dirge I've read on here recently is more aimed at ousting Ron Martin (to what end) and slagging off sturrock and his signings - normally people who haven't even seen us play yet pre-season. These threads normally have someone pop up and say "ah but at the end of...

    What I can't understand

    What gets me is how laid back our support seems, had this situation been mirrored at any other club I am sure something would have been done action would have been taken, but time and time again Ron appears with a smoke screen something to dissolve the attitude and the dreamers (and yes I use to...

    Sturrock Update on Blues player

    Thoughts from PS: Francis: Highest earner, wanted him to stay, would like to thank him for services. Budget was vital to enable PS to bring in quantity of players. Still training with us for fitness until he gets a move. Not got bitter about the situation, everyone admires his attitude...
  17. Consortium now is your time

    If you have any power,any money,any love of Southend United now is the time for you to show it.This Football Club is dying,we have heard much of a consortium that can save it. I would urge you all to come forward now before it is too late,and make Ron Martin an offer he really can't refuse. Or...

    ING Direct

    Good people of the Zone. Has anybody used or do use ING Direct for anything? Thinking of opening a Savings Account with them as they seem to give the best interest in these tight times, but nobody I know has had any dealings with them... As I know there's a fair few finance type people on here...

    Delivery Times

    Something that really gets my goat, and I mean REALLY gets me angry is why I have to take a half bloody day any time I want to have anything delivered, or an engineer call-out. Does nobody in this world "get" the fact that people tend to be at work between the hours of 9 til 5 on working days...

    Different Planet

    Having read some of the bizarre threads /posts on here lately I have decided you are all borg and come from some other planet. All this talk about keep that player..keep this one, he may regain fitness,or not be a liability or maybe we have some youth star.. These were all the players that...
