    Paul Sturrock - a good man.

    An interesting article by Gerard Degroot in the Telegraph yesterday mentions Paul Sturrock: " The football manager Paul Sturrock, a good man, deals every day with young men who take their gifts for granted. They sometimes forget that the ability to kick a ball is not enough by itself to...
  2. Sturrock to Plymouth or any Scottish club who sacks a manager

    Apparently it was Mr Brent , the man trying to buy Plymouth, who instructed Peter Ridsdale to sack Peter Reid. This I was told by a relative who lives in Devon. Now just been on the footie rumours site and there is a posting of this happening and have assurances this wasn't written by my...
  3. What would staying in this division mean?

    It is nice to see a lot of supporters on here are optimistic about our chances of going up this year. But what if we don't? Will we be more desperate in out fight to keep afloat financially? Could Paul Sturrock call it a day? Will a few of our key players leave ( possibly as soon as...

    Pre match thread: Southend vs Hereford

    Well i couldnt wait any longer to get a little closer to the start of the season . This coming saturday couldnt be in any starker contrast to the start of the previous campaign. This time last year to say that a dark cloud was forming would have been a huge understatement. We had lost...

    Lincoln's fans are unhappy with Tilson not getting players in!

    Lincoln City have only 10 players under contracts, with few on transfer list, not one new signing haven't arrived yet .... I starting to see why we got Paul Sturrock in charge before July 2010 for his contacts, to build a team from scratch...

    Breaking News Sturrock dimisses Torquay rumours..

    BBC Southend United boss Paul Sturrock has dismissed speculation linking him with the vacant manager's job at Torquay as "rumour-mongering". The Devon side are looking for a replacement for Paul Buckle. Sturrock has managed Plymouth twice and still has ties to Devon, but says he is...
  9. Johnny Herd speaks out regarding late payment.

    In todays Echo there is a back page article on Johnny Herd, he states that he found it very hard when Paul Sturrock came in as manager and he did not do himself any favours at all with how he played in pre-season. -- 'It was a difficult time for me. Because of the finanicial difficulties there...
  10. Player purchase fund

    I know this might not be possible but with all the charities there are now and people doing good works for them I was wondering how feasible it would be for us to help the club by setting up our own fund. We all know that the club want the season ticket money earlier every year under the guise...

    Memory Lane A nod to last year's unfortunately relegated superstars...

    They were too good to go down and merely relegated because the nasty chairman wouldn't pay them, so with the season go, let's look at each player and how they've done since obviously going off to better things as they were so good... 1. Steve Mildenhall - Millwall, appearances 0, enjoying...
  12. Thank you Paul Sturrock

    As a fan of the Shrimpers for the last 40 years, I've experienced the highs and lows of my club. Now seems like an appropriate time to say a big thank you to Paul Sturrock for all he has done for Southend this season. If you see how teams like Lincoln and Northampton have struggled this season...
  13. Paul Sturrock, ''What a Manager!!!'' Says Peter Gilbert.

    Couldn't make the Stevenage match today but listened on BBC Essex. Peter Gilbert was guest co-commentator. He couldn't speak highly enough of Paul Sturrock. He said his preparation of games was second to none, working on Stevenage's game and how to combat, nulify and beat them, and working on...
  14. Sturrock OUT!!!!!!!!!!

    Its time to take a stand, lets get the sturrock family out as early as we can. Its "flumping" astonishing playing his son, its nod kids football on a "fluffy bunnies" sunday paul, you cant make your son; striler, captain, penalty taker .... If thats what they do in scotland, christ no wonder...

    Serious question guys...

    Please be as objective and as unbiased as you can, putting personal feelings aside. Is there anyone who feels that, given the circumstances when he took over, Paul Sturrock has under achieved this season?
  17. Paul Sturrock : Will he walk ?

    IMHO Sturrocks has pulled off a massive miracle to get us anywhere a play off position. Back in August he had no squad, no money and was having to cancel friendlies. Sure some of the players he has brought in since have proved to be disappointing but others we must be desperate to get sign...

    Breaking News and the award for Manager of the Month goes to...

    Not Paul Sturrock, but to Shrewsbury's Graham Turner. Good, we stay under the radar which is exactly what we want and I am now definitely confident for a win tomorrow.
  19. PS For Manager of the Month?

    With 4 wins,2 draws and crucially no defeats,amassing 14 glorious points out of a possible 18,surely Paul Sturrock will be League 2 Manager of the Month for February.An award IMO very well deserved.
  20. Today in The Daily Mail

    Shrimpers all at sea 'Paul Sturrock is quitely turning around the playing fortunes of Southend United, 17 points out of a possible 24 after a 1-1 draw at Torquay. A pity, then, that a club which has been served with yet another winding-up order by the taxman cannot manage its off-field affairs...
