    Southend should give Junior Dadson a trial in Pre Season this summer

    He is an left wingers (can use either feet and cross the ball perfect with both foot, on a difficult pitch) - I thought to watch East Thurrock Vs Aveley last weekend for an match as an natural, which Aveley won 3-2 - Aveley's Junior Dadson impressed me loads, he is much better than Scannell and...

    Best Southend team with 4 letters in the surname

    Started thinking about this last night on the train Best Southend XI with players whose surnames only have 4 letters. So far, I have Hone at right-back and Mark Hall and Derek Hall on the wings and Billy Best up front. Any suggestions?
  3. Zone Update Ron's Blog-17-02-09

    Chairman's Blog This week’s topic – Youth Development – is one of my favourites. This is probably in recognition that the Club’s advancement must be from organic growth. Over the last couple of weeks I have talked about player purchase and the increased structure that we have, and are...

    US plane crashes into New York Hudson River

    The Airbus 320 – Flight 1549 from New York's La Guardia airport to Charlotte, North Carolina – had 151 people on board, made up of 146 passengers and five crew members. It is not known how many people are injured as a result of the crash, but New York Police boats and local ferries...

    Franck Moussa - Bring him back?

    Why have we got him out on loan at Wycombe when he would of been a much better partner in the centre of midfield than Milsom. No disrespect to Milsom but he isn't a central midfielder, he didn't look comfortable and kept trying to run to the wings. He is much suited to the wings. I can't...

    Why Aren't They Keen On Keane?

    Rumours travel fast in the North-East of England. Nobody is entirely sure what happened or where it started, but Wearside was abuzz last Friday with the 'news' that Roy Keane had walked out on Sunderland. Everyone knew about it, apparently. Some said that he'd not turned up for training. Others...

    Aussie NRL Grand Final - Manly Sea Eagles vs Melbourne Storm

    From Sydney Morning Hearld THE day has come at last. A hundred years after rugby league began, the two best teams of 2008 - and 2007, for that matter - are set for battle. Two cities have a stake in the hostilities between foes whose histories could not be more different. The Manly Sea...
  8. This is Disgraceful, Southend are a joke.

    Can't believe that there's nothing for anyone to moan about. Even I have a little go every now and again. The team look awesome at the moment, even too good in midfield for macca to currently get in the starting line up with the amazing energy and class of Sawyer and Christophe playing like a...

  10. Manakin Bird

    This is quite funny apart from the daft cow prancing about the jungle. I am sure that i saw something like this on QI years ago?? Another interesting fact about this odd bird is that it is the only bird in the world that sings using its wings. Sometimes you can be just too talented...

    Wiggy's reserve team ratings!

    Collis 6 nothing to do, let 2 in, may have been at fault for the 2nd Hunt 6 wasn't doing great then got injured Lipstick 5 Ryman Premier would be about his level Grant 6 no better than what we have already got Moussa 6 good on the ball, never goes anywhere Harrold 5 even looks rubbish in...

    Will Collis move on, as....

    Flavs has hardly set the world alight since he has been back. Collis didn't do a lot wrong apart from being a bit anonymous and unconfident. The fans prefer Flavs and it looks like Tilly does as well bearing in mind his poor recent performances, Masters in the wings is it time for Collis to...

    Women's World Records Car Parking The smallest kerbside space successfully reversed into by a woman was one of 63ft 2ins, equivalent to three standard parking spaces, by Mrs Elizabeth Simpkins, driving an unmodified Vauxhall Nova Swing on October 12, 1993. She started the manoeuvre...
  15. Ratings as i saw it

    I am interested to see if people saw todays game as i saw it? - Collis - 6 - Didnt have a huge amount to do apart from pick the ball out of the net Francis - 7 - I thought he was one of the few bright points in todays match. Thought he worked hard and got forward well when he could Clarke - 8...
  16. do they want more hoofers at the Hall -

    I really hate it when we start bossing the midfield, shifting the ball about with a bit of pace, probing the wings, looking to get an extra man in .... playing good football and making the opposition work ...... retaining possession and keeping the ball on the floor AND then the moaners and...

    3-5-2 anyone?

    I asked a mate for his comments on the 3-5-2 formation employed at Oxford last Saturday in the Cup and this is what he wrote. Comments anyone? Phil <If we had the right players for the formation……………………..or if we made the best of those we had it might be OK but I very much doubt it...
  18. Cheltenham Raings - My view

    Collis - 6 - Not sure whether or not at fault for the 1st as you could blame almost half the team for falling asleep. Not his usual commanding self and a few more games like this and Darryl might be back. Not just yet though. Hunt - 5 - Player of the month?? Do me a favour Tilly and bring...

    Forest scouting report v. Tranmere

    I thought I&#8217;d post on here because, for reasons that I don&#8217;t need to bore you with, I went to see Forest v. Tranmere and so I thought that I&#8217;d report back, albeit not being the most &#8216;football minded&#8217; as some of you (to quote MK Shrimper). That might mean that my...
