  1. The Eternal Optimist

    It's my fault I said Millwall away would haunt us!

    How annoying things you say in jest have an annoying habit of biting you on the arse. I said to my mate on the way to the game that the premiershite quality ref would bottle it in front of the hostile home support. Not only did he send Atkinson off for a challenge that he only gave a yellow a...

    Suarez....flawed genius

    Think of Bilel Mohsni, then multiply that maverick attitude to a world class player, and there you have Louis Suarez. His behaviour in the Liverpool v Chelsea game today, biting an opponent, was nothing short of disgraceful, and yet, the skill of the player leaves you wondering what the heck...
  4. Who's your favourite other posters....

    Simple enough, who from this Forum, do you look out for, who makes you laugh, who do you agree with etc etc... I've got a fair few, many of which I'll now forget, but... In no particular order... Swiss Tony - a great poster & a pleasure to speak to in real life. Dick Bates's Protege - same...

    Nails ready for biting

    I wonder how the players will react to the pressure on Wednesday night? I know from a personal point of view that I am very nervous about the game. I have been having these horrible nightmares that Mosh will get red carded at some stage and Belford will make a horrendous mistake. I do think...

    Following a recent boating trip around the home counties - what is your favourite biting/stinging insect?

    Is it worth still investing in the youth academy?

    If like me the finances are biting and you are running at a loss, does it make sense to continue investing in the youth academy at a time when the transfer market is deflated? How much are you receiving from your sales of youth players? How much are you spending on trainees in the transfer...
  9. FC - The Final Countdown

    Nail biting time this week in the BB household. BATTY SHRIMPERS (2nd) v Jadenshire (6th) Team P W L D T Bat Bowl Points 1. Poppadom CC 9 6 2 1 0 31 27 146 2. BATTY SHRIMPERS 9 5 1 3 0 33 25 140 BOT bashing for us, so a guaranteed 22 points. Leaders play the side in 4th, and will need to...

    FC - Match 6

    Away to 3rd in a reverse of last weeks fixture where only the ME saw me failing to win. This time around I'm on a green track and I suspect their bowlers will exploit it. I have plenty of seamers but not in the same class. Toss could be vital here. I need to bat first to have any chance. PFL...

    Southend file for name change

    I have it on good authority that having monitored these boards for the last few season, Ron is applying for the football club to change it's name from next year. As of the 2011/12 season, we will be called "Southend Divided". :omg: Come on guys, things are starting to get better on the pitch...

    Demonstration against the running of Southend United

    Right, i'm biting the bullet. I'm proposing a demo to take place at SUFC / the gates / training ground. Whatever is applicable. Why ? Media attention / RM to realise who and what he is dealing with. I propose that he comes out and answers or even lets entry to the ground - where people can...
  13. Pellegrini In A State Of Pjanic

    When Manuel Pellegrini took the reins at Real Madrid, blank cheque book in hand, I doubt very much he expected his only shot at silverware at this stage of the season would lie solely in a sprint to the finish with Barcelona... Courtesy of Miralem Pjanic, that is exactly the situation. Lyon...

    Just Another Afternoon At The Match

    Today was a rare opportunity for me. With local non-league football and my lad's training wiped out by waterlogged conditions, resulting in the radio show I would have been doing to cover it all also biting the dust, popping along to the Hall became an unexpectedly pleasant compensation...
  15. Fear not...

    ... it is really of no importance as to whether Barnard stays or goes. There has to be more than one pony in the coal miners parade. If he stays, thats great, but he will not outscore the majority of attacks we play against because we are defensively suspect to say the least. Unless the team is...

    Stalemate at Stamford Bridge

    Apologies, it was such a rush to get this out in time that I forgot to SZ it! See if you can spot the ****-ups.... So near and yet so far. Manchester United came within ten minutes of ending Chelsea's extraordinary 85 game unbeaten run at Stamford Bridge, pegged back by that most unlikely of...

    Sir Alex Ferguson's relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Likening your guidance, as an employer, to the counsel of a father is a tactic that very few football managers could get away with, but what might sound melodramatic and over-familiar in some cases is perfectly suitable for Sir Alex Ferguson's relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo. "If you are...

    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...

    If you're a Virgin Media customer you will get free Setanta Sports for the Bank Holiday weekend apparently. Wonder if Setanta is free for those of us with Sky?
