    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...
  2. Spin the wheel...

    I did not realise that Southend had a SuperCasino and yet RM seems able to play with high risk stakes. Two seasons ago he kept the squad to a bare minimum and Lady Luck smiled, the wheel turned and The Blues were promoted. Instead of quitting whilst ahead he let his winnings roll on for the...

    Teams taking punts on transfers...

    After seeing Windass come up trumps for Hull today, was about the final straw. A month or two back, there was quite an exchange on SZ when a couple of us dared to question Tilson and his transfer policy. In the end, it was an argument I wouldnt (or couldnt with the majority against me) win...
  4. blues fan from 1969-1981

    does anyone use this forum who remembers me. My name is Keith mcghie and I moved to Scotland in 1981 but continued to follow the blues for a few years until other commitments made it impossible. Last game I saw was the Bury promotion game. Thanks to the internet I keep up to date and as there...

    Neil Shipperley

    Has today signed for Brentford according to the BBC Transfers summmary. You're not telling me they can pay more than we can! Another one bites the dust!
  6. 22 transfers since 01 July 2006?

    Football league report On top of this we have updated the contract of 16 players, cancelled the contract of 2 players and made one loan signing. In doing this we have spent £122,190 on agents fees. Have we really made 22 transfers? The only ones I can think of are Collis, Francis, Hammell...
  7. Barnsley Plane

    The company running the plane to Barnsley have given us a 68 seater instead of a 50 seater for tomorrow now. We have another 16 seats still available for £260 which included the flight, transfers, three course meal and a ticket for the game with the Southend fans. If you are interested call...

    BBC sport gossip pages

    Was just readin the outBBC sport gossip pages and a couple of things stood out to me ; "Derby are to make a £2.5m bid for Southend hot-shot Freddy Eastwood. (The Sun)" tbh i find it doubtful he will go to them personally but funnier things have happened and "Bristol City are to sign Grant...

    linky definitely would take that! but would freddy go up there?
  11. Stop Living in the Past!

    I do not understand why so many fans seem willing to write this season off and are therefore not bothered by our current form. Many fans are almost willing us to get relegated just so the club can return to the days of playing Macclesfield / Barnet and attracting 3500 people a game. We are a...
  12. Mentor

    Tilly has only managed for a short while we got lucky last year and team spirit got us out of league 2. Brush is a good coach and tilly is going to be a great manager. Allthough sometimes this causes problems at clubs but i think we need a Director of football a well known ex manager who can...

    Never get the players

    Just been looking on sky sports and as always looks like weve been pipped to the post trying to sign players and this time by clubs that are in a relegation battle with us. Barnsley have managed to sign ronnie walwork and kyle reid from west ham and hull have signed shipperly. Sheffield wed have...
  14. Tilson

    I know this post will **** off 99% of posters on this board but I am realy don't think Tilson is up to managing at this level. Tilson has been fantastic for us over the past couple of years BUT the Championship is a completly different level. If you look at yesterday's game playing two...

    Football "Autobiographies"

    Amidst all the hype of the World Cup and the rest of the summer dedicated to high-profile transfers, we had the inevitable ghost-written autobiogs from England 'stars' that "want to set the record straight." With this in mind, publishers that gave these vain, greedy and stupid...

    Albion make official move for Tilly

    Well last night i thought i heard the last of the tilly to albion story but i am wrong: This is the link For those that can't get the link up it says ''West Brom have made an official move for Southend boss Steve Tilson. (The Mirror)'' He won't go when will they get...

    Sunderland loan move for Eastwood?

    Probably bolleaux but... BBC soccer gossip.

    Panorama Last Night

    Like many, I ensured I taped the Panoroma Investigation into the supposed 'bung culture' of football transfers, last night. Anyone else see it? To be honest, apart from the dodgy Bolton deals involving Craig Allardyce (Sam's son; an ex fully licensed agent) and that Peter Harrison...
  20. Please Tilly don't spend

    After what was, in my opinion the best game I've seen at the hall for years.... please Steve don't spend over 100k on transfers, look at what we had last night .. Clarke poor 250k, Paynter poor 200k .. JCR poor not sure how much, Harrold cheap as chips excellent, Freddy good 40k, rest...
