  1. Loan regulations

    Right, as we're hopefully going to be back in the land of the living as far as loans are concerned I thought I'd try to find the current rules. Before the embargo there was some discussion about the numbers allowed but I don't think we ever resolved the matter, so apologies if we did I must...
  2. Surviving Scudamore

    When Richard Scudamore announced the new home-grown quota system that will come into place for the start of the 2010/11 campaign, you could almost hear the penny drop in boardrooms across the country. From August 2010, a Premier League club will have it's squad capped at 25 players, containing...

    Flat Battery!!!!

    Great, just what you need on a cold wet morning.......a flat car battery. It started with me clicking on the key fob and no tell tale "click" "click" from the car accompanied by flashing of the indicators....strange I thought, maybe the automatic locking system has packed up. Then the...

    Hall Of Fame

    Firstly I'd like to point out that this is by no way a dig at the fine work being done in the official SZ Hall Of Fame threads. It's a great idea and I think the rules in place and the democractic process should ensure the right results. However I do find it strange that someone like Ricky...

    Any truth in this WW2 story?

    Judging by how far behind eveyone else I seem to be in getting jokes and stuff sent to me, I don't know if any of you have seen this story. It seems very far fetched to me, just wondered if anyone knows if there's any truth in it or is this a hangover from last April Fools' Day or something? ;)...

    Unlike many on here, I do not really get the chance to post at work, as I am always far too busy for my own good! But very occasionally, I may pop on to the zone at work if I have a spare couple of minutes just to see what people are writing about. I tried logging on on Friday at work, only...

    Question Which seemingly universally hated ex-Shrimper did you think was OK?

    Following on from the Gary Jones, Dave Regis and Barry Conlon discussion on another thread, it appeared that I wasn't the only Zoner who felt that Gary Jones was a decent player, even potentially a very good player. Gary wasn't well-liked or rated by most fans, but he wasn't in the hated...

    BBC (& Sky) Gaza DEC Appeal Veto

    My view is that there is a very real humanitarian crisis going on in Gaza and that urgent medicine, food and shelter is great need. I've been reading CAFOD's blog from Palestine which has been a real eye opener and very personal account of exactly what has been going on. I know there must be...

    Subaru quit WRC

    Subaru follow Suzuki and withdraw from the WRC blaming the global economy blah blah blah. I think they blew it when the dropped the classic Impreza and replaced it with a Hyundai/Kia lookalike. I loved the old shape, in fact I had two of them, but the new one really put me off, and I can...
