    Pro Evo Tourno 13th August (Tonight)

    Pro evo tourno tonight @ The Marlborough Head, West Street, Rochford. Were changing the format tonight and using the multi tap for a bit of 2 on 2. Tryed it out the other day with a few mates and seemed to be a lot quicker and a good laugh. K.O 6.30pm Hope fully see you there.
  2. The Way it is in the West Stand.

    usual half hearted, disorganised warm up - everything looking a bit slack and careless e.g. Darryls kicking and distribution but its League One and the opposition can't really play. Loads of good old hoofs and a bit of head tennis - Matt Harrold looked fit, trying to put himself about and...

    The fbm view and ratings - West Ham

    FREDDIE RUNS SHOW AS BLUES SUFFER LOSS Well, here we go again as the first home pre season friendly kicked off against West Ham on Saturday. There was a fair smattering of hammers fans in the crowd which was not the sell out predicted but still around the 9500 mark. Southend lined up as...

  6. Can any fellow Shrimpers help?

    Hey, My twin sister and I completed the Race for Life for Cancer Research UK in Basildon yesterday. We completed the 5km in 36 minutes, which was a lot quicker than we were hoping for! We wanted to raise £500 between us, but due to some of our friends promising to sponsor us and then not...
  7. Battrick - Match 3

    So glad it's Friday - Battrick makes the day go soooo much quicker ! Playing the side that will finish bottom of our division, so I'm on a TIE and I've rested a couple of bowlers to give myself a bit of a chance in Sunday's Cup game. 5th bowler might be a bit of a problem, but even if he goes...
  8. will they get rid of the a.hole stewards next year with the crowds being lower

    after more fun and games on sat with the stewards in the west side, it got me wondering that with the crowds, dropping considerably and many less away fans, will we still have the over zealous stewarding that we have had in the last season, after all less fans should mean less stewards. i for...

    HATS OFF TO CURETON AS EWES THRASH SORRY SOUTHEND At 3pm today, the Southend team were completely fired up and ready to do battle with their Essex counterparts in an absolute must win game at Roots Hall. The only problem was that the match kicked off at 12:30. Unfortunately Southend had...

    World Cup tips

    Australia are (still) massive favourites, so a boring choice to tip. I'm instead going for a massive long shot and say a repeat of the last but one Champions Trophy Final but with a different result and England to beat the Windies in the final. If the pitches are as low and slow as the experts...

    Red Riding Hood - The PC Version

    There once was a young person named Little Red Riding Hood who lived on the edge of a large forest full of endangered owls and rare plants that would probably provide a cure for cancer if only someone took the time to study them. Red Riding Hood lived with a nurture giver whom she sometimes...

    Makes you think ...

    A stranger was seated next to a little girl on the airplane when the stranger turned to her and said, "Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger." The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the...
  13. Report from the Training Ground today

    The fbm view and ratings - Derby

    BLUES SUCCUMB TO HOWARDS WAY It was another point-less afternoon for Southend at the Hall as Derby went clear at the top of the Championship after doing the double over the bottom side. The main difference between the teams was Rams front man and ex-Luton striker Steve Howard. He did the...
  15. Travel Back From Spurs

    I don't know about anyone else, but I sat in traffic for an hour last time before getting onto the North Circular. I've also heard that the cues for the trains were a nightmare. Did anyone find a place to park or a station to go to that gets you home quicker? Or do we just have to...
  16. What it takes to stay up!

    Lest look at the situatio and try and be positive. After all Macclesfield were in a similar position only a few weeks ago and have got it on track. For me we are not playing at all bad we still try to pass our way to goal and are no way the the shambles of a side we were when we was relegated...

    Just wondering who actually does this... i've started doing it now and its quite cool as makes the threads load quicker

    HOW WE SHALL WIN

    We have lost our way recently in the final third.Too many defences are playing square onto us.We are bereft of ideas once our midfield have exchanged passes.Marky G flies down the wing only to turn inside.JCR goes down the wing quicker than anyone but stops to look for support.Everyone looks to...

    BLUES SHOW PROMISE IN PRESTON PERFORMANCE This game was always going to be a case of whether the huge morale boost that Tuesdays win gave us would counter the sheer mental and physical fatigue that the players must have suffered after the Man Utd game. The Blues made 3 changes, all enforced...

    Just got back...

    Oh my, it is going to be a long year. Firstly, this post is going to be constructive. I am a supporter of over 20 years, go home and away as much as I can from my Lincolnshire home and have what I consider a very good knowledge of football. Do not accuse me of 'not getting behind the...
