    Phil Brown - decent guy

    Last November we had a private dinner with PB for charity and there was a photo shoot booked for today at Little Havens. Given yesterdays news, we obviously would understand if he wanted to cancel but no, he honoured his commitment and came along, giving up an hour or so to speak with us...

  2. Shrimperzone down earlier this morning?

    ...or was it me? I always rely on Shrimperzone to cheer me up after a defeat, with a series of upbeat and constructive threads, so I was bereft this morning when Chrome could find no trace of it. PS I have also just written a letter of apology to iFollow. I had fired off a bitter complaint to...

  5. 83 points

    Champions Gillingham finished the season on 83 points, the same total as we achieved last season finishing 4th. Before anyone comments, I can confirm that I am bitter and live in the past.

    Dan Bentley

    Looks like a few fans have finally complained to Bentley about his incessant retweeting of silly kids saying that he should be playing in goal. He's deleted some of them and apologised, saying that it wasn't meant in a vindictive or bitter way. Hope he's learnt his lesson, very unprofessional.

    Since its the last day of term at uni, the task of packing has ultimately turned into a quest of procrastination for which the BBC News website comes in handy. However, their main headline really troubles me which concerns the possible resignation of Morgan Tsvangirai from Zimbabwe's election...

    Carlisle Fans

    Huddersfield Fans view on the game....

    Basically, it pains me to say it but it's true. Huddersfield Town Football Club are an absolute ****ing joke. From top to bottom, the awards we won the other week are just papering over the cracks. First of all, regarding the match - we weren't very good. Southend deserved to win, they played...

    PFA Awards

    Ronaldo gets both the Young Player and Players Player of the year award. Fully deserved IMO. At present, he's the most exciting player on the planet. I know the World Cup thing leaves a bitter taste, but him getting Rooney sent off didn't cost us a place in the Semi Finals. We were largely crap...

    I've had three or four stabs at trying to make this post constructive and I know I'm going to fail at it again. I almost can't think of one positive to take from today's spineless, shameful performance. That has to go down as the world's softest ever local derby. I looked around at the team and...
