    Prediction League the PLAN

    After the results of the recent poll the Prediction League will be set up slightly differently to previous seasons. Firstly let me make it clear, that if you want to predict then nothing has really changed. You will have to predict 6 fixtures, southend's first scorer of the day, and use a...

    An apology

    I'm sorry. I posted angrily without thinking. I am all for positive dialogue between the fans. I believe this can still happen.

    The secret of Germany's success

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2013/may/23/germany-bust-boom-talent Personally, I'm inclined to believe that it can be mostly attributed to the "50% plus one" rule.
  7. Over-zealous?

    I appreciate that it has been the ambition of a mod or mods to move Bilel to ex-shrimpers at the earliest opportunity, or even before that, but to move the threads which lists which players have been released to ex-shrimpers on the same day the news is posted is just silly. What are you going to...

    Just wanted to say like with the thread I posted on TZ Travel a huge thanks to Clare (and others) for organizing another great year for Shrimpers Trust coach travel although I personally don't use it there are many that do and I am sure they would all agree when I say a big thanks to Clare for...

    Man VS Food in Southend

    This may well have been posted on another thread and I apologise if it has, but this is the new Man V Food menu that Bobby Jo's Diner (opposite the Sea Life Centre) are offering in town. I've linked it through my Twitter, but everyone should be able to see it. pic.twitter.com/XLCis0wk3s
  11. The Grand

    I said I'd keep Exiles posted about the Grand so here goes. No work started yet. They have discovered some more subsidence and the situation is with the Insurers. Mick Norcross publically stating he will not pull out. Mick Norcross has pulled out of Towie and will not allow filming in the...

    PREDICTION LEAGUE MARCH to MAY 2013

    The Prediction League is back starting next Saturday. For those that took part before the rules are much the same, six fixtures are selected, you predict what the score will be, points are awarded and a league table posted. One result you mark as a wildcard and you will get double points for...
  13. New Financial Regulations

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21374699 Surprised this hasn't been posted on here. In my opinion, I think this needs to be a world football rule, and not just in England. A step in the right direction, but maybe a few seasons too late. There are silly wages flying about now and I still...
  14. I've Been Moderated by the BBC

    I read on the BBC News site about the Egyptian fans given the death sentence and I posted a comment along the lines of "It could have been worse --- instead of the death penalty they could have been given season tickets for Col Ewe". The BBC forum moderators felt that was offensive and deleted...

    Would you rather win the JPT or beat Chelski?

    The club's Facebook page posted a question the other day asking what would fans prefer: to play in the JPT final, to play Chelsea or to win promotion to League One. It seemed quite obvious to me, surely you'd rather win promotion than just PLAYING in those matches. If they'd said winning it...

  18. SUFC Tats

    Been thinking for a long time now about getting a Southend Tat. Feeling the time is right now, have an idea in mind on what I want. Looking back through the threads people have posted pictures to their tats, but the links have expired. Would it be possible for people to post them back up...

    The Shrimpers Trust and its role with the current financial issues

    Ive posted this in general to get some attention, we will move it to the Trust forum shortly... Following a comment I made and a subsequent reply from OBL thought Id start a specific discussion, especially after a great game on Saturday will hopefully mean this is in a slightly more positive...
  20. Just posted on Liverpool FC Official Forum (not SUFC Related but never mind)

    After the events of today I felt compelled to post this in support of football fans. "On behalf of all Southend United fans on our web-site www.shrimperzone.com I offer condolences and hope that justice will be done to those who besmirched the name of decent people."
