    Cheltenham 2018

    With under 2 weeks to go I thought I'd start up this years Cheltenham thread up. Who look like the bankers this year? Buveur D'air, Apples Jade, Altior, SAMCRO? Where is the value to be found? I don't think the standard is as high as previous years overall, so there is going to be value bets...

    How d'you like them apples?

    So, how do you eat an apple? I saw a woman on the tube yesterday eat the whole bloody thing, including the core. Ugh.

    King of fruit.

    For me it's got to be lychees despite having the shape and texture of a testicle. Worst fruit has to be English apples which alway taste vile.

    Best time ever to be a Southend fan

    As opposed to Bluebloods thread which, whilst no doubt a decent discussion point, is only going to create more negativity. Look people, if there are negative thoughts and vibes then that is what will transpire to be. If you look for a sinister motive or negative point, you will find one. It...
  5. Southend United 2010/2011 Review

    More attention (understandably) seemingly on Lincoln's result today than our own, so I thought I'd bring the focus back to the mighty Blues. Hope you enjoy the article: Against my better judgement I’m beginning to feel sorry for the Lib Dems. No, wait, hear me out. Obviously they’re a...

    Question Use Your Illusion I or Use Your Illusion II?

    Drunken conversation between a mate and I the other day ended up with us arguing the merits of the two Guns N' Roses albums that came out back in 1991. My friend was very much in the 'II' camp (features "You Could Be Mine" and he's a huge fan of "Civil War"), whilst I much prefer 'I' (the better...

  8. Breaking News Ron's blog 24/02/09

    Whilst the rest of us were watching the match, Ron was emailing us his latest thoughts: I want to begin this week by thanking all our supporters who were able to attend the match at Colchester this weekend. The 1800 or so who made the journey across Essex showed, once again, what passion is...

    More computer help

    Apologies once again for another shamless cry for computer help. I'm thinking of buying myself an iMac, my only reservation is Apples equivalent of Microsoft Office, iWorks. Firstly, how does it compare to Office, good / bad / any good features? Secondly, is there anyway of loading Office onto...

    This is what's appearing in an upcoming edition of the Basildon United programme. See if you can spot through the subtle clues the little known manager it refers to. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Arry...

    It appears the graphics didn't copy over, sorry !!! Chairman's Blog Firstly let me apologise to all those readers who were anticipating my blog yesterday. It is important that the Club do things when they say they are going to and I am sorry I could not deliver yesterday but was reliant upon...

    Apple trees

    Bit random this, but thought I'd just see if anyone's had the same problem with their apple trees as us? Had loads of blossom and plenty of fruit form all hunky dory and just as usual, have had no trouble at all with aphids this year (normally a major pest) but nearly all the fruit has dropped...

    An experiment carried out

    Moving on from the thread that told us that children as young as 3 should be watched for reactions over certain foods to see if they could be racist, I have conducted tests on my four year old daugther with certain foods from around the world to find out whether she is going to be a no good bad...

    Help required from da kidz

    You might remember that, this time last season, an Irish newspaper commissioned me to write a fictional account of an intercepted SMS conversation between Carlo Ancelotti and Rafa Benitez. The catch was that both managers had to be portrayed as being well versed in the patois of the nation's...

    London City Pubbing - The Old Days

    Looking at the clubbing thread brought back a few memories of the good old days when I was young, free and used to enjoy life. It was very hard to find many pubs in the City that stayed open beyond 8.30/9pm in those days, unless you fancied the rare "delights" of of the Railway Tavern or the...
  16. From the East Coast to the East End

    “Oh my god, look Sophie, there is a Southend Supporter, I didn’t think they had any” came a voice sitting next to me in an internet café in Cairns on the East Coast of Australia. I was looking, as I had done daily for the last six months, at the latest transfer goings on via the website. “Yeah...

    From tonights Echo

    Ron Martin has said he's not panicking yet as we have a better squad than last year and "no bad apples". He has also said that because we are known as "the Blues" it was only right that we should have 2 differing shades of Blue for both home and away kits. Because of...

    Toughest quiz of the year

    average score is 2 (I think I've got 4). From the Guardian: "Scire ubi aliquid invenire possis, ea demum maxima pars eruditionis est" 1. In 1903: 1 who founded the WSPU? 2 what speed limit was imposed on motor cars? 3 who was the Sublime Paralytic, who died of cholera? 4 whose weekly...
