    Question Playing In London

    When was the last time we won a game in London? The last time I can think of is Barnet away, but then that was the FA Cup anyway. So, last league game? I don't think I've seen us win a league game in London, and that's having seen about 15 of them. Is it just me or is our record in the capital...
  2. Will the flood gates open now?????

    Everything that I have read regarding the "debt" owed by the club mentions only the HMRC debt, which is in relation to unpaid VAT. It is inconceivable that this is the ONLY debt the club has, but it IS the only one referred to as being in line for settlement on Friday. So, knowing a little bit...

    X-Files Special: The Teflon Ron

    Reading through many of the posts regarding our current financial woes, one thought has struck me over and over again: How the hell does Ron Martin do it? Mr Martin has been proven to be a liar. That’s a fact that cannot be disputed. I was thinking of prefacing that with an ‘IMHO’, but I...

    No Chance For Youth At The Top

    One week on from The Great Chelsea Punishment and still the sense of shock reverberates through the global game. A steady stream of similar accusations have trickled in through the front door of FIFA HQ with some of English football's proudest names implicated in the scandal. Poaching, it is...

  6. Capital Punishment

    Bring it back or not? Use it in extreme cases? Keep it abolished? In the wake of the 'Baby P' murderers being granted a new life when they leave prison, with all the trimmings i might add, would Capital punishment be more fitting for these scumbags? What's your take on it all?

    Do we want this woman back?

    Foreign Office Minister Chris Bryant said: "We do not condone any crimes involving illegal drugs. We work around the world to combat the use of illegal drugs."However he added the transfer was "excellent news" Excellent news for who? Certainly not the British Tax payer

    Ron's Blog 6/5/09

    Haven't seen this anywhere else yet...... Chairman's Blog What a good day Saturday was and with nothing to play for I thought that the team performed well and remained committed to the cause right to the end. It was also a day to celebrate the success of the Club’s youth policy which, I...

    Breaking News Ron's Blog

    I feel that I should be letting you have my thoughts and feelings about the season now it is effectively at an end but I promised that I would answer all the questions that are put to me and I am continuing to do so. However I will need to bring this to an end soon as it was only meant to span...

    Kroenke ups Arsenal stake

    Not particularly interesting but in the Sky SPorts article, this bit caught my eye: This would put Fiszman's worth at about 85 million in Arsenal shares alone. Thats quite a lot of money.
  12. Chairman's Blog - 24th March

I am told that some of the emails have been paraphrased but I am sure they include the gist. I...
  13. 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...

    Surely selling off Royal Mail right now is sheer stupidity?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7906418.stm Apparently, the Government is thinking about selling off Royal Mail. Now I find this baffling. Throughout this entire financial crisis a lot of the blame has been put at the doors of online companies for robbing the high street of passing...

    Question Mortgage query

    With a standard repayment mortgage, if I'd paid it for 9 out of 25 years (i.e. 16 years to go) how much capital would I have paid off (let's assume £150,000 mortgage)? Is it an easy question? I have no idea!

    Tuesday Geography Quiz

    Only 17 of the 50 (not 57 Obama) US states have their largest city as the State capital. How many of the 17 can you name? Clue: Minnesota is not one of the 17 - Minneapolis is the largest city and St Paul is the capital, and are technically separate cities despite being commonly grouped together.

    All I Want For Christmas...

    All I Want For Christmas Is.... Cristiano Ronaldo - A move to Real Madrid Santa Claus will get a distinct case of deja-vu when he opens young Cristiano's letter and sees his request scrawled out in red felt-tip pen. Didn't he send that last year? Anyone who thinks that Ronaldo wants to stay at...
