    Question Are you prepared to physically help with "sprucing up" Roots Hall during close season

    Are you prepared to physically help with "sprucing up" Roots Hall during close season Simple really. Following on from the "Roots Hall" thread, would you be prepared to become part of a "Supporters Inc" team to help with some organised running repairs and general "sprucing up" of the...

    Time for a positive post

    Here is a comparison between our last 16 matches last season, and our first 5 of that period this season. May I remind a lot of people we were also doing the same doom and gloom last year before Brown turned it around. He may have been doing extra things at training to prepare the team for the...
  3. Issac Layne

    Was at the Alloa vs. Rangers game on the weekend with hospitality. Speaking to the Alloa board who are convinced they have a great prospect on their hands. Must admit, he didn't shine but how can you if the ball is always pumped up in the air with no support!

    Question for any KODI users on here

    I haven't been on KODI for a while but tonight I fired it up and discovered that the Genesis Add-on is no longer supported. I've had a quick nose at possible alternatives and SALTS or Velocity have been highlighted as good replacements. Has anyone tried either of these two yet? and if you have...

    Question Phil about that pint offer

    Phil Brown made a most generous offer of wanting to buy the 200+ away supporters at a freezing cold Shrewsbury Greenhaus stadium on Tuesday, a pint! Well Phil I have thawed out now and request that I take you up on your offer. Ticket proof below, I live in North Wales but my brother is a season...

    Could Southend United be owned by a Supporters Trust ?

    I noticed when Exeter City were on TV in the FA Cup recently, they stated the club was now owned by the supporters trust. As many people are worried about our finances and the lack of detail from RM regarding FF, is that something we could achieve for SUFC ? (or am I just dreaming ?)

    Does Hell give off heat or does it absorb it?

    "Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)? Support your answer with a proof." This was an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry midterm: Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools off when it expands and...

    NHS Junior Doctors Industrial Action

    It's probably time to open up this particular issue. NHS Junior Doctors are taking industrial action for the first time in 40 years. So, is it ever right for medical staff to take this sort of action? The BBC took a poll very recently to see what patients' views towards this action were. Two...

    Oh deary me! £50,000 as well

    "A lottery-winning couple who blew all of their prize money in the space of a year say they are now facing eviction from their home for a second time after being refused benefits. Jobless Jamie and Abbie Hort won £50,000 in the Christmas 2014 Channel Islands Lottery but the Guernsey couple...
  12. Longest Serving Supporter?

    I had the pleasure of sitting 2 seats away from a very nice gentleman that said he had been watching Southend for about 70 Years. 70 Years, can you imagine that? He's seen it all, the ups and downs, the good and bad times. And he's still coming to games when he can, I think from Maldon...
  13. Consecutive home defeats

    Can anyone ever remember us suffering 2 such heavy home defeats back to back? In my 25 years supporting I'm struggling to think of one occasion even in the dark old days of Whelan/Martin/Little. I'm guessing under Dick Bate perhaps?

    Support for Colchester's new manager

    With Colchester about to appoint a new manager (said to be Kevin Keen) I thought it might be nice to share some comraderie with our Northern Essex neighbours and send some messages of support and/or suggestions for improvement. Here's mine .......... "Good luck Kevin .................... you...
  15. Why isn't PB liked by other supporters?

    This one baffles me. The guy is a tactician, motivator, loyal to his players, takes defeat on his (own) chin, passionate about the club, I really could go on. What most fans don't see outside of our club, he also does a lot for charity, always makes sure, either he or the players attend...

    WEST STAND take the Roots Hall HOME Championship

    In a dramatic match between the North and West, Jassyfa1 of the North was the highest scorer in the competition but without support West took the points and the title with Cyril Sneer scoring a very creditable 7. EAST STAND Team: Escudo 2 points , GBJ 3 points and ol blue eyes 2 points TOTAL...
  17. PMA for Sonic

    Ok so today is a big day for one of our own Sonic the Shrimper as he has been asked back to see the manager in a job interview for none other then those big hitters B&Q so please leave your messages of support on this thread and lets help get him out of the early learning centre and into a real...

    Big game Saturday

    What a great night tonight. Leaves us on the edge of the play-offs and a win Saturday will see us break into the top 6. It would be great to see a decent crowd turn up to show there support.

    Question Should we rearrange game for 5th December?

    As the Crewe home game is scheduled for the evening of Tuesday 1st March 2016 and they are also out of the FA Cup, wouldn't it make sense to rearrange our game with them to a Saturday as undoubtedly they will bring more supporters on a Saturday rather than a Tuesday night? Or will have I have...
  20. The Howard pub for Saturday

    This is the main pub for away supporters as all the pubs round by the ground do not allow away supporters in and they all have bouncers on the door checking tickets. The pub is about 10 mins from ground it's right near the train station infact u can see it from the station. So let's all meet in...
