    Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend United 0-1 Wimbledon

    All reports,ratings and discussions here please. After all the boasting this week by PB and the rest that "We had turned the corner" this is a terrible result IMO.

    Engine diagnostic/fault codes

    Ahoy, I was out in my motor last night and the engine suddenly went into limp mode with no turbo and the glow plug light started flashing. Restarting the car seems to have resolved the issue and the turbo now kicks in but I would like to get to the bottom of the problem. On VWs this is a...

    Diane Abbott

    Did anyone else get the irony of her lecturing the country on obesity? Check that mirror out you fat bitch. Oh and by the way Diane, if you are going to beat the rest of us up about sending our kids to public school it might be an idea to remember where you sent your own child. And one more...
  4. Pace pace pace.

    Pace Pace Pace. Been saying it for ages along with many others, we needed pace up front. Boy, what a difference. A truly brilliant debut as well. Loza reminds me of a cross between Assombalonga and Richard Cadette. He was so quick he never gave the defenders a moments rest. He closed them down...

    What are you going to do if you don't watch the Blues?

    There have been a lot of posts on here lately where posters have said 'enough is enough, I'm not watching this lot for the moment/ever again' (delete as appropriate). I often have moments when I think along those lines, but I'm still going. Of late I have been on decorating/tiling duty in the...

    What do you lot reckon? I don't have a games console any more (well apart from a Wii that I use for nothing more than Netflix) and maybe a mobile but the rest....over my dead body! You?
  7. Deja vu...

    This time last year... our play off chances were slipping away, players were underporforming, fan were getting restless, Ron wielded the axe. Now, 12months on its deja vu. We all know Ron has told PB the target is promotion, thats looking less and less likely with each game. fast forward 2...

    PL Table No. 1 for Tuesday 25th February 2014

    What a miserable night for the Blues and for us predictors with not many points on offer. Kitch (the Southend Prediction king) cleary knows his stuff with 10 points, while Mini Shrimp did well too, as for the rest of us................. 10 Kitch............................. (East)... 7 Mini...

    Half full or half empty?

    SZ techno people, please, can you set up a poll/quiz along the lines of; What type of supporter are you? Half Full, you look for positives and make suggestions on how things can maybe improve. Half Empty, you look for fault, see it, and then chunder on about it for the rest of that players...

    Brighton seafront hotels

    Nipping down to Brighton for a few days and need a hotel. Can anyone recommend one that is not The Grand (been there and thought it was pony) and preferably doesn't have Sting as a bellboy. Any restaurant recommendations would be appreciated too. Cheers.
  13. Luke O'Neill fitness?

    Does anyone know if he is now fit and did he travel abroad with the rest of the squad .Hios loan must soon be up And i know P B has been trying to get him signed untill the end of the season but things have gone very quiet on the player .
  14. question ???

    Why did we sign besentie Gomes it must be going through other fans minds as to why Phil brown has brought him in only for him to monly see the pitch during the warm ups .And then sit on the bench game after game .Surly if this guy was good enough then give him some game time .IF he isnt then why...

    Choosing the right Mattress

    The wife and I have decided we need a new/better mattress. We both suffer quite badly from back/neck pain as a result of our jobs, and so I think getting a decent mattress to help our bodies is a must. However, the question "What is the best mattress for back pain?" doesn't seem to give an...
  16. Knackers Yard. Who Would You Rest?

    It's coming up to that time again when some of our players will be treading treacle. It's happened badly the last 2 seasons because of small squad, suspensions and injuries, meaning some players played a lot of games. The midfielders get through the most running, so I would rest Timlin and...

    Pre-Match Thread Dagenham vs Southend United

    Looking ahead to Tuesday and the state of our pitch and others in league two, and the up and coming weather, does anyone think the game is in danger, I'm thinking there is a strong possibility. Don't recall their pitch being that great in the past.

    HULL..........stripping, streaming and screaming

    There are those lucky ones who are able to get to the game 'in the flesh' so to speak and there are other ex-pats, who will be able to sit in the confort of their local pub or bar and watch the game on a large TV screen. For the rest of us it's radio or Blues Player (if it works!)...........but...

    Against the odds?

    I see that Southend are 5-1 to beat Hull and 2,500-1 to win the FA Cup outright. Whilst winning the FA Cup is not going to happen, I think the odds of beating Hull are good value bearing in mind our current form and the likelihood that they will rest or be without certain players and will no...

    Transfer price for goalkeepers

    A question for those who follow the rest of the Football League more closely than I do: how many goalkeepers have moved for transfer fees in 2013 and how much were those fees?
