    Harry's Nostalgia - North Bank Memories

    With the imminent return to the North Bank, albeit for two games I thought I'd share a few memories with you, while I still have them that is. Firstly though a big well done to Smiffy, TrueBlue and all the others who have worked hard to achieve this. :clap: From the first day I stepped into...
  3. Chelsea Recieve Nul Points, Again

    Apparently, Carlo Ancelotti’s mother never warned him that if he pulled a funny face and the wind blew, it would stay that way. Ancelotti pulled the same expression of futile, emotionless pondering for 94 miserable minutes as Chelsea, yet again, faultered in Europe. Much had been made of...

    Blimey

    McLaren takes FC Twente to joint top of the Eridivisie with 48 points form 18 games and still undefeated. Will this bloke ever get back into the Prem?
  5. Hands Up Who Paid for That...

    I'll admit it. I paid the full £14 to watch 76 seconds of boxing last night. I was fooled by a Jewish New Yorker who talked a good game, but failed to mark his words with any kind of action. After taking two attempts and a stripping to make the 10 stone weight limit, Dmitriy Salita informed a...
  6. Five Star Pac Man Reigns Supreme.

    If ever there was any doubt regarding Manny Pacquiao's claim to the pound-for-pound crown, it was swept away with a simply stunning performance last night. The Phillipino, dubbed Pac Man, stormed to a win over the supremely talented Miguel Cotto and, in doing so, claimed his fifth world title...

    Memory Lane Episode No 6 Season 1931-32

    Here's Episode No. 6 of Season 1931-32 and was printed in the Southend v Southampton programme. Extracts from "The Forgotten Years of the Kursaal" by Peter William Baker No. 6 THE ONLY UNBEATEN SIDE IN THE COUNTRY That was Southend United’s proud claim after nine League games and word...

    Gillingham (F.A. Cup & Friday) BE THERE!

    So, Saturday 7th November we face Gillingham at Priestfield. With our current plight I suggest that we take as many fans as possible to the game. The Away end, as crap as it is (If it's raining!) holds 1,500 on your average league game. But, as it's the cup I'm sure we could take the whole end...

    Clement Attlee

    I'm going away for the weekend but my nomination for British hero is up for the first round this afternoon so here's why you should vote for him: Clement Attlee served as Winston Churchill's deputy in the War Coalition before winning the 1945 election and leading the most...

    The Play Offs and US

    So we missed out on the play offs, but last week 500 happy shrimpers didn't seem to unhappy about it, and 8,000 smiling faces yesterday certainly weren't showing the strain of a long season, and the Pubs around RH were full of merry Shrimpers. So let's spare a thought for the four play off...

    Champions League Reports

    Apologies, I've been rushed off my feet this week. Here's both games for you. Is it so inconceivable that Arsenal could end this strangest of seasons as Champions of Europe? Arsene Wenger described his side as 'super-outsiders' before the first leg of their clash with Villarreal, but even after...

    This Article Took 3 Hours Of My Life...

    ....90 minutes to watch it, 90 minutes to write it. I'll never get that time back. Never. West Ham 0-0 West Bromwich Albion So West Bromwich Albion are just a pretty team are they? Tell that to Rob Green, the West Ham goalkeeper who felt the full wrath of the struggler's newly found nasty...

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/essex/7880414.stm Had a lovely drive to school this morning, would have been better off with a boat! The missus was driving and we both thought a few 'puddles' would defeat my little fiesta! In fact one 'puddle' had defeated a mini....

    It's only going to get worse...

    ...well it MIGHT do since we have games coming up thick and fast, our team isn't functioning as a unit, we have no quality on the bench to shake things up and so many of our better quality loanees have returned to their clubs (even if in some cases this might not be for too long). We certainly...

    The College Football Thread

    I've been meaning to start a College Football thread since the season started, and now that the Crimson Tide are number one in the AP and BCS rankings, I've finally got round to it....... It pains me to say it, but I don't see Alabama as the Number One team in the country, but they will play...

    Pro40 Div Two Title Race

    Essex are assured of at least an end of season play off berth as Yorkshire defeated Glamorgan yesterday (in hindsight a Glam victory would've suited us better) and K*nts game at Northampton was lost to the weather Remaining Fixtures :- Tomorrow: Surrey vs K*nt 7/9: Warwicks vs ESSEX...

    Barry Fry's interview in match programme

    Did anyone read with interest the interview with Fat Barry in the programme? It was surprisingly honest - I suppose he thinks that what happened in '93 (or whenever) is all ancient history now, which I suppose it is. He said -and this was the honest bit- that he used "the situation" with...

    Hottest Burger In The World (some rude words)

    This is in Brisbane, shall I have a go when I get there in a months time and report back? Yeah, like f*** I will! was digging around the zGeek forums the other day when I stumbled across one of the funniest post-hot-food-eating articles I've ever read. "Cranky" had heard about the "Off the...
