    The Pub

    Not this on-line pub but "the" English pub. RIP? I guess most of you guys visit the hostelry occasionally. For how long is that going to be possible other than via faceless characterless town centre mega-pubs? There was a programme on the radio last night about locals taking over their own...

    The 1953 Floods

    I hope the following is of some interest, on a Saturday afternoon in 1953 Southend United played a poor game of football, the crowd had a good old moan and then went home totally unaware of the disaster that would hit locally in a few hours time. Saturday 31st January 1953 Southend United 1-0...

    Memory Lane Bristol Rovers Cup match

    Some time ago someone posted the link to pathe news which had newsreel of Southend v Bristol Rovers Cup match in 1952, I've now reached this point in my research so I thought you might like to read the story to go with the film. Hopefully the following link for pathe news works...

    Club is an absolute joke with Ron Martin in charge!

    ...and will be for the next few years. On the verge of the play offs in a really crap league with a decent bloke in charge and what happens as always? Ron gives us absolutely no chance of going any further. Season ticket in shreads, won't be renewing and can't wait till his little dream is in...
  5. How ashamed do you feel ?

    nasty - grubby - pathetic - dishonest - just a few words that I now associate with Southend United -

    To the Wycombe Players....

    Thanks. Your pathetic and very long winded ring-a-roses goal celebration I am sure had the desired effect on our team. If that did not wind up the boys then nothing would. So thanks again!

    Boss sorry for fans

    http://www.southendunited.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10444~2242450,00.html "And boss Sturrock admitted that the lack of matches and proper training sessions hampered his side". It didn't seem to effect Burton....more pathetic excuses.

    Captains Blog Part 2

    EAST ON.... I know this is supposed to be a light-hearted column so I’ll get Saturday’s defeat against Morecombe out of the way first. What can I say, we’re all gutted with the result and the way we lost the three goals in a game where we once again had most of the play. When we equalised at...

    PL Weekly Points Round 10

    Solid but unspectacular best describes this weeks efforts, most of us lost points on Stockport winning at Oxford and our pathetic demise to the club that was 92nd in the football league. Tinks emerged from her recent run of poor form by nailing her wildcard and thus coming out on top this week...
  12. Memory Lane Roots Hall Market the saviour of SUFC?

    Memory Lane Pathe News Southend v Bristol Rovers FA Cup 1952

    Excellent footage from the old Southend Stadium in 1952 attendance 22,429. Just look at the pitch and some of the tackles how was that not a penalty? Southend players look pretty hard, the players of today would not last 2 minutes with that lot. Ah its Joe Sibley who squares up with the Bristol...

    Analysis of why 09/10 went so very wrong

    Right, I think we all know that the financial constraints we've had to suffer (many of them self-inflicted) have ended up causing our dismal relegation but I just felt it might be quite good to discuss the football side of why things have ended in disaster this year. For me, I'd say in the...

    Arsenal v Liverpool

    Good second half. Diaby, great goal son but shave your head. you look like what Clive James would have called a fuzzy wuzzy. Walcott - First touch is terrible. This bloke must not go to the world Cup. What was he doing with the ball in the corner with 2 minutes to go? Howard Webb - Books...
