    Who in our team is good enough??

    Who in our current team is actually good enough to play for the club? Just an honest question because i think we have a lot of dross who would struggle to find another league 1 club. Mildenhall: Good enough, and a decent keeper at this level. Barrett: Good enough, captain for a reason. He...

    Orient last night

    Only 2,600 odd there for the game which I must say is shocking! Orient use to pull similar crowds to us back in the late 90s early 00s when we were both in the bottom division, but I can't understand with promotion and newly built areas of the ground yet attendances are very low!

    Shrimperzone 2010 Awards

    With the recent Golden Globe, footballer writers, bbc sports 'personality' of the year awards it led me to think what a fun idea it would be to get something going of a similar nature on Shrimperzone for 2010. As far as I am aware there is no such awards on here. I am quite simply thinking only...

    "Something kind of hit me today..."

    Strange that a thought from a bygone life should hit me today ... but here it is anyway. I got stuck on the M25 en route to a midweek home game against Northampton back in the Autumn of our super season 1990-91. We'd played them just recently in whatever the Leyland DAF was back then (Sherpa...
  8. Football Manager 2010

    Just loaded the demo of FM 2010. Does anyone else play? I've loaded a quick start game as Southend United (of course!) and am wondering if others are playing. If I'm commenting in the wrong place please alert me to any other similar forums. Thanks, Steve.

    transfer window

    am I right in thinking the window opens on the first? if so we could have some new faces by the time wallsall come to town, I know we getting M'voto back but will we get others, can we afford any? I think a left back older than 12 is a must, some pace up top with barney and a winger would be my...

  13. Money Can't Buy You Class

    Money can you buy a lot of things. It can buy you a fast car, a nice house and a beautiful wife. It can buy you the worlds greatest player and, in Manchester City's case, it can buy you an incompetent defence. What money can't buy you, Manuel Pellegrini learnt tonight, is class. El Classico...

    Footballers Name Game!

    Was bored so decided just to post this on here. Simply name five Footballers with names that are similar. Such as Bullard Gerrard Lampard Barnard Gary Sheppard (Merthry Tydfil F.C Player/Manager) And then name the thing all these players have in Common. They're all an absolute inspiration...

    The Driverless Taxi

    See the bbc website for video footage and commentary. There is no direct link that I can find on BBC. This is weird! A taxi that reaches up to 25mph which reaches its destination by computer control and laser sensors. This was only a matter of time. This is being tested at Heathrow Airport and...

    Awkward moments at work

    Being aroused at work... Has this happened to you? So there we are sitting at the desk drifting after lunch on a cold winter's day as I normally do and I start thinking of smashing 7 shades out of Jennifer Lopez. I naturally get barred up and excited with a little smirk rising and a bulge in...
  19. What Ron said in July

    Southend chairman Ron Martin has called for calm among agonising fans amid the club's £690,000 bill from HM Revenues and Customs. Last month HMRC issued a winding-up petition against the Shrimpers, which coincided with their decision to allow clubs more time to pay off their debts...

    Another Twist???

    It appears that Southend United are NOT on the Companies Court Winding Up List 2moro! Does this mean the debt/s have been paid - if so why no interviews 2moro? Accrington Stanley ARE on the list & they were in a similar situation to us. Does anyone have a clue whats what?
