  1. Spreading the Shrimper Word.....

    Have spent the week helping at the local Holiday Club. Today was the last day so I persuaded the leaders to dress up for me.... :) The most Northerly collection of random SUFC shirts ever I bet. Only the lady in the Custard Splat objected, and that because in my joke slot at the...
  2. TrueBlue

    To my loyal subjects...

    LET REJOICE REIGN THROUGHOUT THE KINGDOM FOR TRUE BLUE HAS RETURNED! Right down to business.... First let me issue a heartfelt apology to the mods to I have really to be honest taken the **** out of them over the last few days leading up to my ban, the mods don't deserve this treatment from...

    Are premiership players overpaid?

    I was just having an interesting conversation with my brother (who supports man utd) about the wages of football players. We were talking about the game today, and he told me a really interesting fact... Man utd are paying out approximately 47 million in wages per week. Chelsea are paying out...

    The B.N.P.

    So, they have done extremely well again this year, coming 5th in the london Mayoral Vote. But do we really know the truth about the B.N.P? Have you actually read the manifesto and mission statements? Ok, so they are a bit far right of the middle, but they want the best for this country. In my...

    Northampton - from an ex-exiled shrimper!

    Evening all, I don't post on any messageboards anymore but browse from time to time and use to post on here a bit. Anyway, I've been away travelling for a year or so, Swansea was first game since being back, and today my second. To maybe give a bit of perspective I thought I'd leave my thoughts...

    When are the play-offs?

    And before I'm accused of tempting fate, I'm, erm, asking on behalf of a friend. Who supports Walsall. Honest.
  7. odd fans spotted

    know then for those of you watching southend away in the late 70s and 80s and travelling by train, you must have come across the strange man in glasses always seen with 2 massive bags sleeping in trains overnight, many an overnight trip was in a carriage with him and his bags. If my memory...
  8. Which country do you most like England to beat?

    After Saturday's events in the rugby, I was wondering whether the Aussies are now the country most English sport followers like to see our teams beat. Hopefully the options cover all the main traditional villains. My own vote goes to Scotland as they seem to be the only country that actively...
  9. Re Getting Those E-mails In...

    I've sent my e-mail in as per Ron's instructions, and I'm encouraged by the number of other SZ people who have done the same. Is it worth us posting our letters in this part of the forum in case there's anyone out there who may be looking for some inspiration or some idea as to the sort of thing...
  10. Will Tilson resign!!

    This Southend man through and through that supports Leeds and would be Norwich manager if Martin gave him permission to speak to them is loosing his creditability! The money he’s wasted on Foran, Paynter, Harrold and the wages of Ricketts must give Ron a massive headache when asked for more...

    Some fans at yesterdays game

    I was shocked and appauled by some of our so called supporters yesterday. The man that wears glasses with a beard and is holding a stretched out scarf thats cardboard cutout is on top of the club shop was a disgrace. He sits a couple of rows behind me in the RBS, you know who you are if youre...
  12. A Round up.

    Today is one of the lowest points in my southend supporting days. Yes we have come a ****ing long way in 3 years, but when i go and watch 11 overated and over arrogant pricks pull on a shirt and perform like a sunday team with a hangover, then i get ****ed off. What's worse is, fans chanting...
  13. should i be bricking it?

    Has anyone been to Belfast? i ask as i agreed to go there for a weekend with a friend who supports Linfield (don't ask why) and wants to watch the belfast derby. having booked my flight i've heard nothing but people saying i'm gonna get lynched for being English. clearly this is something i...

    Southend 3 - 1 West Brom

    Albion suffered a New Year hang over at Roots Hall where they were hammered by bottom of the table Southend handing the basement side all 3 points. Down by 3 at the interval the Baggies were unable to get back into the game and failed to build on John Hartson's second-half goal. Monday 1...
  15. On the QPR messageboard...

    An unbiased review of Eastwood from someone who supports QPR but has seen Southend play.... Link Makes me laugh fingers crossed if they believe that, they'll be in for a big shock at 3pm.

    More Eastwood Transfer Rumours!

    Just been googling for any transfer rumours connected to SUFC and in particular Freddy. Well could he make the same step as super Stan The Man Collymore did? Just look at this link on a Liverpool unofficial forum. Someone claiming to work with Freddy's sister?  Surely this guy would be sworn...

    Whatever happened too...

    Back in the day when I was first working in London as a mere slip of a lad there used to be a Shrimperzone type London supports club meet up. I went along a few times and met loads of the "hilarious" charcters from this board. Think we went Deacons once and also to the Crutched...

    Interview with Dave Smith

    Gary Nelson was never really aware that the fans never warmed to him, mind you he was just a young lad at the time. The ebst player I signed/coached was Alan Foggon up at Newcastle United. Well,he was never the same player down at Roots Hall and I never did understand why.!&#33...

    Andrew Murray Update

    Scottish tennis star Andy Murray has denied being anti-English after receiving abuse over comments he made about the World Cup. Murray has been caught up in the latest cross-border spat after saying he would be supporting "anyone but England". Dozens of posts on Murray's Wimbledon...
  20. Our Bottle

    I live in Leigh but work in Chelmsford so not surprisingly no one really shares my passion for the blues at work. Over the past couple of weeks I have been getting a lot of stick about us ‘bottling it’ at the last minute with home defeats from the Gills and Donny. My boss was convinced we...
