  1. CC51DAS

    Just been down the seafront and......THEY'RE HERE !!

    Quite difficult to spot them as they are not sporting club favours nor brandishing any weapons . Some have brought spouses and offspring in an attempt to pass for family orientated day trippers .Not even pearly king and queen outfits to give the OB a clue as to their real intent . Bravely , I...

    Bad pubs.

    I have made a point of visiting most pubs in the area but I have never fancied The Sherlock Holmes (formerly the Moonraker) in Westcliff. I have never drunk there but I imagine they serve crap beer (Tennants or McEwans) and a punch up is always on the cards. Other pubs I have avoided are...

    Surprisingly accurate personality test

    http://www.animalinyou.com/survey.asp When I worked at The Independent we used this personality test on ten people in the office and it was pretty much spot-on in every case. It only asks a handful of questions, so God knows how it works. Anywhere, here's me. I'm a rooster! Roosters are...

    Lancaster

    The Dolly Blues avoided ending the season on zero points after scraping a draw last Saturday in the last game of the season. Also, "due to it's inability to meet it's debts as and when they fall due, Edwin Kirkwood of EJK Associates Limited in Leeds was appointed Administrator of the Club...
  5. Prague, do's and don'ts?

    heading to prague at the end of april (hopefully to celebrate the lads staying up!!) not been b4 and just wondered if anyone can recommend stuff that's a must do or anything that should be avoided like the plague!! ta muchly. :cool:
  6. Independent today...

    There's a feature on QPR (admittedly by one of their sports correspondents who is a QPR fan' with the following quote: '... one of the worst results in the club's history, a 5-0 thrashing by lowly Southend United' Now, I could say that losing 5-0 away to a championship side is nothing compared...

    Red Riding Hood - The PC Version

    There once was a young person named Little Red Riding Hood who lived on the edge of a large forest full of endangered owls and rare plants that would probably provide a cure for cancer if only someone took the time to study them. Red Riding Hood lived with a nurture giver whom she sometimes...

    Boys don't cry

    Following on from the Rocky thread, let's all join hands and open up, eh? When is it ok for a chap to blub? As I divulged, I had to choke back the tears during Cool Runnings recently. Any kind of sentimental sporting moment usually does it as well. Who was that runner who collapsed on...
  9. Cardiff Saturday

    What pubs should we head towards and which ones are to be avoided! i remember the prince of wales being a good pub wen we was in the finals but it might be home fans only

    Spend or save come Jan 1st

    Now baring in mind that 4pts from the next three games will not even get us off the bottom and it being Jan 2nd with 19 games to go would you take the risk on splashing out for quality players that would more than likely only sign short term end of season contracts in case relegation isn't...

    The fbm view and ratings

    HULL HUMBLE HOSTS IN HALLOWEEN HORROR Southend hit rock bottom as they yet again conceded three goals at home to gift fellow strugglers Hull the points on a chilly Halloween evening. In a poor encounter, it was obvious that both sides lacked quality and confidence as the opening exchanges saw...

    My 2 cents

    Firstly, the stadium plans.  Well done RM, and in my opinion the plans look absolutely superb.  There is no way anyone can say that it looks crap - it may not look how they might want a ground to look, but it will be clean, futuristic, spacious and worthy of Championship football.  It may be...
  13. sufcintheprem

    Just to reiterate another point

    I think this is comfortably the most re-assuring "everything will be ok" thread I've read. "The real nightmare would be seeing your side bottom of the league and going into administration and not knowing if you even have a team to support next season. Which is what is...

    The fbm review and ratings - Rochdale

    We won 3-0. Everyone was great in the second half but not so in the first. Better? Not too much for you to read? I've avoided long words as well. Enjoy.

    Some (interesting?) stats

    Football First paper carries some great stats. For instance (league only - no cups); Fredy is joint top scorer in league 2 with 14 goals (the Grays ones count as well).  He has scored 3 headers, 1 right foot, 2 left foot and 6 "other".  The mind boggles! (Yes I know its the Grays goals but for...
