    Is this bloke sick in the head.

    Some of you may recall a post/poll I did before about a woman at works mother in law. Basically her mother in laws husbands sadly passed away leaving her a widower. She then went on to date her dead husbands brother and I was debating if that was wrong. She has not gone a step further and put...
  2. Blackpool Not Interested

    Watching Sky Sports News, the news ticker displayed the comment that Simon Grayson has ruled out a move for Clarkey. Good news, keeping the backbone of the squad is integral to success next season.

    From the Echo today: - Interesting, either Tilly's trying to calm things down before signing him a la Mitchell Cole or it's another web rumour that's proved false!

    Echo today (Tuesday)

    Tilly has ruled out Owusu. The Echo refer to him as a speedy 30 year old (Owusu, not Tilson) which comes as a surprise to me on both counts as I never thought pace was his strength and thought he was older. But I haven't checked so will assume they are correct. Tommy Black is mentioned (by...

    Worth checking out?

    Jon Main, of Tonbridge - his agent, Mikkel Beck, formerly of Middlesborough, is touting him to Championship sides, and he has been on trial with Wolves and Norwich. He is on 30-odd goals for the season with about 7 games left. This, from my local rag... The future of Tonbridge Angels hot-shot...
  6. Alan Lee- A disgrace to Football

    Firstly what a great win today. Thought every player played well and all Shrimpers fans were brilliant. For those who were not at the game today Alan Lee punched the ball into the net Maradona style but thankfully both the Linesman and Ref were alert, the linesman flagged and the goal...

    Injury shock for Pakistan

    Both Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammed Asif who were due to take a further drugs test this week (the rest of the squad took theirs last week) have been ruled out of the world cup through injury. This is apparently completely unrelated to the fact that these two had previously failed drugs tests, but...

    Confession

    Ever since the Spurs game on Saturday there is something niggling at the back of my mind that make me feel.....well.......a bit dirty. As you may have read in a previous thread i was entertained for the day in one of the Spurs boxes. As part of this the betting slips are readily available and...

    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...

    NOT QUITE ALL WHITE AS BLUES GRAB POINT Southend earned a deserved point against play-off chasers Plymouth at the Hall today, but wore their all white away kit to do it! Presumably the visitors had not brought down their away strip and so it was felt that the easiest solution would be for us...

    Sodje injured

    Efe has been ruled out of tonights match v Coventry with an achilles injury. With spinner also injured, thats Barrett and Clarke in the middle then. They are too similar for me and Clarke has been fairly woeful of late. He needs a big performance or its another spanking I fear.

    More Ominous news from Carrow Road....

    On the Norwich City Rivals site today, it states that Alex McCleish has ruled himself out of the Norwich City job. He is interested in getting back into football, but doesnt fancy Norwich as the place to do it - I think he is interested in Leeds. Inevitably, this will push Tilly back up the...

    Oh god!

    Tilson pings a big, curve ball down Norwich's throat as City try to pick their way through the minefield Mon 9 Oct 06 Shrimpers boss Steve Tilson threw a large curve ball Norwich's way this weekend as he revealed that Southend chairman Ron Martin had refused the Canaries permission speak to...
  15. To all Shrimperzone readers

    As an avid reader and occasional poster on Shrimperzone I feel must apologise. In common with many other fans comments, my comments such as "I can't believe we've managed to sign Peter Clarke, this is a real coup" and "Prior is f***ing useless and must be dropped for Clarke immediately" and...

    The fbm view and ratings

    As is usual when the game is on Sky, I won't bother with the match report as such, but just a couple of points and then the ratings. Firstly it is hugely disappointing to be off colour in front of the cameras AGAIN.  Our third 3-0 home defeat out of 4 (after the televised games against Luton...

  18. Parky Whinging again

    I see our favourite manager was having another whinge in the newspapers this week, moaning how they had a perfectly good goal ruled out against Scunthorpe and in their match last Tuesday. I watched SKY's Football league review the other night and they didnt even show the disallowed goal. We...

    ST.VALENTINES DAY MASSACRE AS BEES BASH BLUES Southends unbeaten run came to an abrupt end at Griffin Park as Brentford exacted revenge for the 4-1 drubbing dished out to them at the Hall a few weeks back. That scintillating performance seemed a million miles away as Southend were second best...

    The fbm view and ratings

    Southend blasted Brentford apart in front of over 10,000 fans at Roots Hall to storm back to the top of league one. In the past, Blues have normally suffered stage fright on such occasions but it became evident as soon as the players ran out onto the pitch that they were pumped up for this one...
