  2. Ref Watch ..... Wycombe at home

    Today's referee is Stuart Attwell from Warwickshire, refereeing his 4th Southend match. A somewhat notorious official, Mr Attwell was promoted to the Select Group after just two unexceptional seasons as a League referee. It is fair to say that this fast-tracking favoritism caused more than a...

  7. Question Should racing or even riding horses be banned?

    I am a big racing fan and yet I've been affected by the deaths of three of my favourite horses in the last six weeks. I'm starting to feel that jump racing in particular has an uphill task justifying its continued existence. The grand national has reinforced these feelings. However the...

    Memory Lane Aldershot game off Old News

This match is best forgotten, it was...
