    McCormack Incident

    Folks, Just to let you know, I've had to delete the McCormack thread. Apologies if there was an interesting discussion going on in that thread; however, to make it clear, it was based on a fundamental untruth. Alan McCormack was not knocked out in training today. Alan has spoken to one of...

    How is c2c tonight?

    just got this email... Dear David, Disruption has been reported to services between your selected stations, London Fenchurch Street to Southend East. (It should be noted that this service is provided to indicate delays along the route and during the times that you have selected. Whilst the...
  3. Today's game

    The fixture I was looking forward to all season - 45 minutes up the road for a Southend supporting Devonian. This was a game that after we soaked up 10 minutes of pressure we never looked like taking anything other than three points. Yeovil were very poor and we played well - never breaking...

    Report of sorts

    They say to win promotion you have to win games where you're not at your best. I'm not sure what 'they' would have to say about a team that so rarely dipped in to their reserves of talent but still run in victorious. There was an air of empty anticiaption around Roots Hall - a misplaced...

    Damien Scannel

    What a snip he looks to be at £5 grand. Came on towards the end last night and had an immediat impact. Caused the home defenders big problems down the wing with his trickery. Some signings seem to take an eternity to win you over but this bloke has done it for me in the brief time ive seen...
  9. Lessons we can learn from other teams

    On saturday i thought i should check out Sheffield United as they are only a few mins away... tickets were a tenner and my mate who is a big QPR fan was coming up for it too. I really enjoyed the match, and it made me a bit sad we weren't still up there mixing it with those kinds of clubs...

    Matt Harrold - Why all the slating?

    Why are people coming on here and the radio and slating the poor guy again ? Thought he played jolly well yesterday , won many balls in the air , caused alot of problems for their defenders , brought the midfield into the game , gave the team shape and laid off a sublime pass to tee up...

    Silent Section

    The introduction of the Blue Voice is a brilliant idea and I for one really appreciate everything those involved have done to get it off the ground... I'm sure most people would agree we would like to do our bit to provide a POSITIVE atmosphere at Roots Hall and hopefully at Fossetts Farm in the...

    New Year's predictions

    A tad early but thought we may as well start these while we're all still feeling cheerful ... Here's mine January - Geraint Williams sacked - Dagenham+Redbridge drawn away to Man U in round 4 - Leon Clarke signs for Leeds - Uncle Ron (he's innocent of...

    A Christmas Tale

    They don't do it in Germany, they've long since given it up in Spain and the French would be astonished if you suggested that they should give it a try. The Christmas football fixture list is a curiously British and Irish disease. With almost every other civilised nation doing the sensible...

    U16 charges - update

    Below is a reply received today from David Jobson to my e-mail complaint regarding the FA Youth Cup. Admitting that it was a mistake to charge under 16, they are sorry....! what are they going to do with the extra revenue? I suggested that they donate it towards the local hospital childrens...
  15. Is the board actually FUNNIER without rep?!

    Something about SZ is making me chuckle quite frequently at the moment... it's been a shame that the rep isn't around cos many have deserved some green, but could it be that the lack of rep has actually caused SZ to be a bit better in recent days?!

    McClaren's pre-Croatia match notes leaked

    Shamelessly stolen from another forum, but I don't care :D Mc – Right, Tel, thanks to Israel I can still get us through to the Euros and can’t afford any mistakes. Goalkeeper – who’s the best in the country? TV – Rob Green Mc – Don’t know him. Is he in the squad? TV – No. Mc – Who have we got...

    4 week hangover

    From AFP (it wasn't me before anybody says!!!) It may be the longest hangover in the history of binge beer drinking. When a 37-year old man walked into a hospital emergency room in Glasgow, Scotland last October complaining of "wavy" vision and a non-stop headache that had lasted four weeks...

    DIY Help

    Right then, unfortunately I've been roped into some ongoing DIY projects around the house (and as I've posted before this is in no way my strong point). 1) I hired a steam wallpaper stripper last weekend and got all the paper off the 2 bathrooms we're doing up, however as the head of the...
