  1. Just got back

    To my girlfriend's house in Liverpool. First brief impressions: crap game, unimaginative attempts at playing football with intermittent quick forays forward with no real end result (from both sides). The major news has to be Bailey's headbutt on Macca. Exactly what happened and what blows...

    Welcome to Cukoo Farm

    I was on the train last night and listening to the Radio. They was talking about Col Ewes new ground and the fact that "Welcome to Cuckoo Farm" will hardly be the most intimidating message like "This is Anfield" when the players walk out of the tunnel towards the pitch next season. This got me...

    Manchester United v Barcelona

    Manchester United take on Barcelona tonight in what will certainly be the purist's choice of Champions League semi-finals. These are two teams packed full of world class players and devoted to playing the game in adventurous, swashbuckling fashion Unfortunately, only one of them is currently...

    'You'll Never Walk Alone'

    The parties went on long into the night. For the third time in four seasons, Liverpool were through to the final four of Europe's most prestigious competition. Rafa Benitez had asked and the Anfield faithful had provided. The old stadium was rocked on its foundations by the noisy supporters and...

    Barcelona

    Barcelona booked their place in the Champions League semi-finals with a 1-0 win over Schalke, but they were made to work for it in a game that could have been over by half-time, had the Germans taken their chances. Mirko Slomka's side were timid and over-cautious in the first leg in...

    Avram Grant Part 2

    The lone figure on the touchline hunched his shoulders and pulled his long coat closer in the bitterly cold wind. Around him, 40,000 angry supporters howled at him in derision. "You don't know what you're doing!" they roared. "You don't know what you're doing!" The figure remained still, unmoved...

    Swansea Assistant Manager - Arrested

    None other than Southend United's much loved ex striker Graeme Jones. Arrested after a scuffle in the tunnel against Bristol Rovers last night. Story can be found here And it's in this forum because realistically it could affect Swansea's preparations for Friday's game.....

    Sorry Spurs

    Juande Ramos said earlier this week that the clash with PSV Eindhoven would be a barometer of his team’s progress since he took the helm, but if that’s the case then there’s a grim storm on the horizon. Most people put Tottenham’s abysmal showing at St Andrews last weekend down to a hangover...

    Slipperduke's Mission To Millwall

    With a few edits, this is what the good people of Singapore will be waking up to tomorrow. MtS had a very lucky escape in being cut out of the final edit. 500,000 people could have found out exactly what his idea of a pre-match meal is... As a mere, and very occasional, foot soldier of the...
  11. Meeting with Ron Martin

    Smiffy and myself have just returned from a Meeting with Ron and Gary Adamson at the club. Ron is totally behind The Blue Voice, so much so that he has agreed to finance us in the future.This is not just talk as he has told us to order another 18 Blue Voice flags, 12 of which the Bluebelles will...

    Leon Clarke

    THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES ON.... Let's face it. He isn't very good. In fact he is dog lazy. His attitude stinks. His body language is that of a man who'd rather be elsewhere. After a promising beginning v Gillingham, he has gone downhill. Whilst he was scoring goals, no one moaned. Well you...

    December 14th - 7.30pm - Be there

    This is a rallying call for anyone and everyone that can make it down to Roots Hall on Dec 14th to support and cheer on our youth team. After their demolition of Barnet in the last round they are going to be up against much stiffer competion this time around with Derby County making the trip...

    What has Simon Francis done?

    Does anyone else think he is far too good to be stuck in the stiffs. I accept he is prone to lapses of concentration sometimes but lets face it so are they all. Having watched another 90 mins of Tommy Cack failing to produce anything, or tackle back I cant help but think Francis could do a...

    liverpool v chelsea

    The best build up to a game I have EVER seen but more importantly heard. The commentators voice is muted leaving just the crowd noise, turn it up full volume and let the hairs on the back of your neck rise. Great shots of the teams lining up in the tunnel who look understandably nervous – god...

    Thoughts from the East Stand.

    Right - Not going to talk about the game as there are a million threads on that however there are some other points I would like too touch on. Had a few drinks in the spread before the game as I have come to enjoy. Served by the ever friendly McNasty. Its fast becoming a Shrimperzone haven in...
  17. New song to lead boys out...

    Head on over to longpier for a world exclusive first play of new tune that SUFC may use as the boys come out of the tunnel (or during pre-match build up). Let longpier know what you think!
  18. Dagenham in Kent??

    Having not been to Dagenham in some years and only knowing the old A13 route I thought it wise to suggest to our Cabbie (CSJ) that this would be the best way to go last evening. Not so...apparently Dagenham is now in Kent. Now Jay being the bright spark he is took it upon himself to take a...

    Southend Sign 21 Year Old Super Star Southend United today paid a massive £5.75 Million for Shrimperzone FC Winger/Striker Matthew Rice. He has signed on a player/coach level. I was at Roots Hall to catch the first pics of the are super new signing. In an interview young Winger Matthew had...

    Just got back...

    Just got back after today's game. We started really well and were deserving of our lead - AB, what a hero! But Saints eventually showed that they were the better team. The last three goals that we conceded didn't really matter one bit, by that time the entire Southend section were on their...
