Got a story?
Let’s hear it.
You don’t need a press card. You need a good idea, something to say and care for the story you’re telling.
Explore this page ↓Good ideas matter more
than a polished CV.
I welcome original contributions that give readers something useful, interesting or memorable. A Southend United memory, a thoughtful football opinion, a historical feature or a useful Southend community idea can all be a starting point.
You don’t have to write the whole piece before getting in touch. A short outline is enough to begin the conversation.
FOOTBALL
Your view of the game.
Opinion, analysis, match memories and supporter experiences.
HISTORY
A story worth keeping.
Players, seasons, photographs, grounds and personal memories.
SOUTHEND
Useful to the city.
A local feature or practical idea relevant to Southend Live and its community.
