    Trio Walcott!

    Call off the search and return the helicopters back to base. The England team, missing since the summer of 2004, have been found alive and well in Zagreb. After what had seemed like an eternity of dour, artless whimpering, the three lions found their voice and roared back into life against...
  2. McCormack To Chelsea ?

    As we are all footie fans ,then I think it is O.K. to talk on here about that magnificent Champions League Final last night .Macca at his argumentetive and aggressive worst would not have looked out of place in the Chelsea team in respect of the way they argued and complained about every...

    Newcastle v Chelsea

    Chelsea may have made hard work of it, but two well-taken second half goals gave them a vital victory over Newcastle here at St James Park, and set up a nail-biting finale to the season. Level on points, but separated by a yawning gulf of goals, Avram Grant will have to pray that Manchester...

    Defeat in pub TV football appeal

    1-0 to the money men IMHO, I notice a lot of pubs round here have started exploring this loophole. They will probably have to get rid their Arab systems as a result of this hearing. Taken from Aunty Beeb: A publican has suffered a setback in her High Court battle to use a foreign broadcaster -...

    Who would be YOU?

    Whilst making the most of my unrelenting, fast-paced SBH social life at the weekend - okay, so a group of us went down 't curry house - one of the lads asked a question to which I was dismayed to discover the answer to. The question was simply this: When the money-men of Hollywood decide to...

    Family Roots

    So the other night i was talking to the missus and abusing the Jocko's for being useless at pretty much everything, when she told me to shut up as she is half scottish (her dad is a jocko). I argued that as she was born in Rochford she is English and should count herself lucky, but she would let...

    Masters of the Universe: have you even drink-drived?

    Following on from the abusing Lee Hughes thread, I'd be interested to know how many people on here have driven whilst under the influence of drink or drugs (including prescription drugs which you aren't supposed to drive having taken). I'll also include an option regarding speeding, as it can be...
  8. Leeds Season In Doubt

    Except from todays Yorkshire Evening Post Leeds United's new season is in serious doubt today after Ken Bates failed to head off a legal challenge at the city's High Court An appeal by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs against the resale of United to Mr Bates and Leeds United Football Club Ltd...

    Should tramps smoke?

    Again as with the lesbians thread was walking over London Bridge today when the lad I wortk with and I were approached by a Big Issue salesman. He looked very tramp like as you would expect yet he was smoking a B&H type fag (Rather than a roll up). Now I said to Ben that I work with that I...

    Former Luton Chairman Admits Bungs

    The former Luton Town chairman Bill Tomlins has admitted making illegal payments to middle men whilst his manager Mike Newall was claiming that corruption was rife in football. In a long article in today's Daily Mail written by Bob Graham, Tomlins says he made '13 separate illegal payments to...

    SUFC vs WBA - Official SZ.com report

    steveo1 has produced the first report and ratings of the New Year, barely an hour and half after the final whistle. Enjoy! The Christmas period has been a funny old time for the Blues. An abysmal home display against the League leaders was followed by two good away draws at Norwich and...

    To those that thought all is was in turmoil

    Back in 2005, following our LDV cup defeat, we had the dubious privelege of a 'derby' match with Orient a few days later. Although we were far from outplayed, I don't think any Shrimper could have argued that there was much if anything betweent he two teams that contested that game...

    p%&*ketts!

    Gutted! Gutted! Gutted!!! How excited were we all when Ricketts signed, our new signature to make the division sit up and take notice? Clearly many of us believed that if Tilly could get Ricketts back to even close to his Bolton form, then we'd be safe as you like in...
  14. Ron Martin - whats the view now

    Just thought I'd ask the question to see what people think now about Uncle Ron.In the beginning there was a fair amount of scepticism about his motives, and that scepticism may well remain today. I number myself amongst the early sceptics, developer takes over a Southend, alarm bells rang...

    Racist or Placeist?

    Earlier in the season at the Hall (can't remember which game) there were 2 coloured linesman who both were bald and who both had chequered flags.  Consequently, in my review of the match, I made a comment about an appalling decision in each half by the linesman but said that I couldn't tell...

    Blip or trend

    3 defeats on the bounce. A few weeks back that seemed as unlikely as our 8 successive wins. But is it is bad as we all think? Taking cup games out of the equation, our last 6 league games have produced just 1 victory, 1 draw and 4 defeats. That can be argued as being more of a trend and is...

    The Ref

    Did anyone else think he was out of his depth on Saturday? I did. He got suckered into a few decisions, but for me they weren't so bad. Any matter of opinion can be argued both ways. For me the issue was his inconsistency. He allowed one Sansea player to kick the ball away without...
  19. By the end of today

    I would like to see an explanation by the club as to why they appealed against the suspension. There is not one fan on this board that argued that Freddy would get off, hard facts show that it was always going to be upheld. Instead of missing a trivial league cup game and two league matches, he...
  20. Success of Southend

    This is just an article i wrote for the All At sea Fanzine, thought i'd better start writing some stuff to go with my Uni Application and Personal Statement... Success at Southend As little as 24 months ago, the future of Southend United FC was in question, let alone the likelihood of advancing...
