Two different books 'Tangles'.

Hal Mason wrote 'The History of the Us' (That's U as in United, not 'us'). I read it as meaning 'us' as in Southend United, at first.

Peter Mason wrote 'The Official History of the Blues' which is the Southend United book. The one that has Dave Goody's stats in the back of all the games.

HTH,

Edit : 'Blue Exile' just beat me to it.

Yes. The word on the street is they're going to approach Chris Coleman. They approached Michael O'Neill first, but he turned them down. Heckingbottom hasn't been approached yet. Ally McCoist wants the job, but they're not too keen.

Yep done deal. Coleman leaves Wales to take over, so that's another one we can put to bed.
 
Finally. Can we close this thread now, ....give it a few hours, and someone on here will open a new one entitled "Brown For the Wales Job?" :smile:
 
Not so hasty mattitouk, just time for this please:

As a mark of respect lets all hush at three minutes tomorrow (Bolton, England, Sunderland) and cup our ears towards the dug out to hear him sing it :smile:
