    '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...

    Defence - what an improvement

    I think amoungst all these positive posts we need to give a special mention to the improvement in defence. What a great difference Mulgrew and Francis have made lately and Barrett and Clarke are putting in some excellent performances. I think 5 goals conceeded in 10 games speaks for itself...

    Chelsea scramble through

    Chelsea scrambled into the semi-finals of the Champions League with a 2-0 victory over Zico's Fenerbahce that was anything but comfortable, either for the club or for those unfortunate enough to be watching. The continual criticism of their minimalist style of football can be tedious, but you...

  7. Southend United Cult Heroes - help needed!

    Hi, I have been asked by my friend to do some research for his site, which sells cult hero t shirts of all clubs in Britain and across the world. Basically you pick the player you want featured and the caption and colours. There is already an extensive Southend database, but I just wanted to...

    Fabio Capello

    David Beckham’s long wait for a century of England caps should finally come to an end in Paris tonight, thus bringing to an end the tedious and never-ending speculation over his future. Beckham has been a fine ambassador for the nation and deserves this great honour, but England must move on and...

    Metal Monday Pt.18

    A slight chance of pace for this week as we head for Southern terrority. This week's band are somewhat of a metal 'supergroup' pulling members from Pantera, Corrosion of Conformity, Crowbar and EyeHateGod. Starting life in 1991 with a three-track demo, their first album, NOLA, wasn't released...

    The fbm report - Forest

    A few gremlins with my PC at home means I won't be able to put last night's report on the front page. So here it is: BATTLING BLUES DENIED BY FOREST FIRE Southend put on their best performance for some time against Nottingham Forest at Roots Hall on Tuesday night, but it was not enough to...

    Quaresma

    While England’s footballers sulk in their sun-loungers, the rest of the continent will be contesting the 2008 European Championships. Iain Macintosh, who still won’t allow the word ‘McClaren’ to be uttered in his home, runs the rule over some of the potential stars of the summer. This week, it’s...

    Iranian to pay 124,000-rose dowry "An Iranian court has ordered a man to give his wife the 124,000 roses that he promised in her dowry, after she filed a complaint to claim it, reports say. The woman said she was claiming the dowry because her "very stingy husband" would not even pay for a cup...

    The fbm report - Millwall

    Folks, As I'm not quite sure what time I'll get back tonight in order to post this on the front page, it is not fair to deny fbm his readership - or to deny you his pearls of wisdom - so here is the fbm report for the Millwall game, which will hopefully go up on the front page tonight. * * * *...

    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...

    Metal Monday Pt.13 (Again not for the faint hearted)

    Hailing from Buffalo, New York this band helped shape a genre. Even some of their own fans are split as to which 'version' of Cannibal Corpse they prefer, with the band shifting to uber-detuned guitars and adding more slower, groovier riffs from their original thrash metal influenced early...

    Sympathy For The Devil

    Perhaps we’ve all been a bit too hard on Peter Scudamore this week. Entire legions of the press corps have mercilessly opened fire on the EPL’s Chief Executive in the past five days after he announced that the 20 top flight teams would be slipping on the thigh-high boots and whoring themselves...

    Seat for life at new stadium?

    This is a letter that my father-in-law has sent to the club, the echo and has asked me to put it on here to see what your thoughts are - In a nutshell, he is suggesting that instead of getting everyone buying shares which are effectively worthless with such a large controlling stake, the club...
