    Fantasy shrimpers

    Quite a few ex shrimpers ( including trialists) are currently playing for Prem teams now .... I reckon we are quite close to be able to field a whole team .... i'm not suggesting this team would be any good for your fantasy team but as a Blues fan would be very satisfying! Please help with any...

    Most satisfying film scene

    For me it has to be the scene in Scarface when Octavio the clown is blown away when the two hit men try to whack Tony in the nightclub. Possibly the worst variety act I have ever seen however if I had been there with a gun I would have given him a chance to clear up his **** and leave first...

    Question Your dream job?

    If you could do any job in the world, what would it be/have been and why? There's two things I've always wanted to do. The first would be a football scout/youth team coach, as I think the satisfaction of spotting a talented 8 or 9 year old that no ones ever heard of, signing him up, seeing him...

    Some rare news! Good to see Allan is still interested.

    A Question for Neil F

    since you always provide spectacular financial analysis... I was walking down the highstreet on saturday, and saw that Sports Direct had moved into the lot vacated by JJB when it went bust in October, just months after Sports Direct had had the opportunity to save JJB, but decided not to...

    Satisfying (if cruel) moments...??

    I mentioned in an earlier post that I would really enjoy grinning at Crawley Town, their manager and fans if we were to beat them in a hypothetical Play-Off Final at Wembley. So, what has been your most satisfying (if almost certainly cruel & heartless) moment at your opponents expense? Mine...
  7. Southend United's 2011

    So, we've played our last game of the year, a thoroughly pleasing 4-1 away win at 10-man Wimbledon. This means that we have finished the year in 3rd place in League 2 (although we should be in second place, Aldershot), up 14 places from the end of 2010. As a result of the snow in December 2010...
  8. I think we need to go bust to survive

    After watching the game on saturday, I have reached the very sad conclusion, that the only way out of this mess, is to actual get wound up, and go bust. then reform, aka wimbledon, chester, halifax,etc etc. for there is no getting away from it, we are very close to the end, both on and off the...
  9. Thrills, Spills and Unpaid Bills - The League One Review Part Two

    Ok, here's the second part to my review of the League One season. Apologies for the delay, have been busy this past week. Brighton Quite how Brighton finished as high as 13th should pay great testament to the work of Gus Poyet since his arrival. Having narrowly avoided the drop last time out...

    Striker Crisis For Capello

    England 4-0 Slovakia Heskey, 7 Rooney, 70, 90+2 Lampard, 82 Forget about the result. A 4-0 victory over a substandard Slovakia might look nice on the scoreboard, but it has no place in the bigger picture. Fabio Capello will be far more concerned by a dramatic injury crisis in his frontline...
  12. Great New Story About The Boy Eastwood

    a absolutely fantastic new story about freddy. On Easter Saturday, a friend of mine walked into a local pub in corringham for a quite drink with a mate, when he pushed open the door, he was amazed to see about 20 gippos all drinking and shouting and having a good time. He also noticed the large...

    the word ****

    I dont know about the rest of you but in the last couple years I have noticed the increased use in this delightful four letter word. More and more "sensible" people are using it in everyday life. Sometimes it comes from the mouth of someone you wouldnt ever in your wildest dreams have...

    The fbm view and ratings - Canvey

    CANVEY HIT FOR SIX IN PARK LANE TURKEY SHOOT Southend continued their impressive scoring run in one of the most one sided games I have ever seen... and to be honest the disappointment is that Southend could have easily been well into double figures. Tilson played moreorless two different...
  15. Phil Collins

    "Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the...

    Top 50 film endings

    Thoughts? 50. The Blair Witch Project (1999) - The movie isn't particularly scary... at least until the last two minutes, which take the tension level from 10 to 100 at an exponential pace. The final seconds -- wherein a member of the cast is spotted, back turned and facing a corner, as an...

    Leonard 'Shaun' Goater

    A little too soon to include this as an Ex-shrimper post perhaps. Check these Man City goals out for The Goat,particularly the satisfying strikes against Man U. Couldn't find any footage of his Southend goals as yet. One word, LEGEND...

    New Southend radio station

    I know Reading Shrimper has already posted some information about the four organisations bidding for the new licence for a radio station in Southend, but seeing as so many people on here are so fed up with coverage of the team on local radio, particularly Essex FM, I thought I'd look at the four...
