  1. RHB

    Are tottenham genuine contenders for the title.

    I have an affinity with Spurs because my dad was a season ticket holder there and I used to go with him. So I admit to an element of bias, but after today's win at Man City, I genuinely think that they have a shot at the title. Leicester deserve to be where they are but Spurs are really starting...
  2. John White

    Extremely impressed by White, very professional, great attitude, settled in quickly and leading by example. I hope we can hang onto him, could turn out to be a long serving loyal servant in the mould of Paul Clark / Adam Barrett / Spencer Prior. That's what we have lacked in recent seasons and...

    Well done the club

    We're all so quick to moan on here but personally I'd like to say a brilliant and big well done to the club. They have put all sorts of extra stuff on Player over the last few months and all these little training videos, pictures and articles are really good for us to get a bit of affinity and...
  4. Renewed affinity with the team

    When the FA cup was drawn and we were picked alongside Chelsea, I felt a bit gutted. We should have won at the weekend with all the chances we created and it feels like our opportunity is probably gone. However, it got me thinking that for the first time in a while I feel like the players will...

    Have you warmed to the team

    After reading something kentblues posted earlier, it reminded me of a lot of peoples opinions last season saying it didn't feel like their team any more. I have always supported and loved the Blues no matter what, but after the removal of Tilly etc, many didn't feel any affinity with the team...

    Timlin Back - Part 2

    Wanted to give some credit to Timlin following a run of decent performances from him. Remembering back to when we signed him, there was some opposition to bringing him on board and opinion was pretty much divided on whether we needed him. But he seems to have brought some balance to the team...

    Affinity with the team

    What a difference a year makes. Last season in the friendlies we were all shouting "Who are ya? Who are ya?" at our own players... now many are going on tour up to Scotland and thanks to facebook and twitter we are thinking of a lot of these lads almost as our mates. Quite a turnaround. And...

    Who goes? YOU decide

    As I've posted in another thread, if either Tilson or Martin had to got TODAY, who would you prefer - considering all the implications that would go with their leaving would mean, I dont just mean they vanished off the face of the earth and everything would be rosey. TILSON: Legend at the club...

    Supporting a club like Southend United

    As I sat high up in the Shed End at Stamford Bridge enjoying our moment in the sun on the greyest of winter days, soaking up the Blue Voice inspired atmosphere, taking in the flag-waving travelling Shrimper army bedecked in yellow and coping with the perforation of my ear-drums from an incessant...

    Interview with an Exile: Part 4 - Overseas Shrimper

    This week, Mark (Overseas Shrimper) from Malta takes part in the Interview with an Exile... 1) How long have you been an exile? A) I have been in exile since ’95, mostly in Malta but with stints in India and back in London. Even though I returned to the UK, it was for work and I...
  11. The real cost of watching Football...

    Now, according to Virgin Money, the average regular fan of a Premiership football team forked out £1,331 (5% of average salary) supporting their side in 2007. This covered the cost of tickets, merchandise, travel, food, alcohol and match programmes. One in eight dedicated fans paid out as much...

    Eastwood and Paynter

    Surely, the Eastwood and Payner partnership should be given much more time to develop. It is a match made in the heavens (literally). Freddy was born on 29 October, and is a Scorpio, and Billy on 13 July, and has the astrological sign of Cancer. I paraphrase the website of Australia's...
