    The Guardian Exposed

    The next time a link to The Guardian is rammed down your neck by those that would eat the rich, demand socialism and deny choice, then consider this. A list of Guardian contributors who demand equality for the downtrodden but have, of course, never experienced hardship and never will. I give...
  2. New Strike-Force???

    Entering League 1, i would imagine Mr Brown is looking for a new strike force asap, there are plenty of names about with higher League experience who might be willing to come to Roots Hall. Barry Corr, I'm of the opinion that as much as his work rate is good, his technical ability ain't League...

    Now a shrimper

    After the discussion the other day where someone posted that they've had enough and will get a season ticket at West Ham next season, I thought I'd tell you about my friend and his family who've done exactly the opposite! He started coming to Roots Hall late this season with his family (mostly...
  6. Ref Watch ....... Stevenage A Play-off

    Well here's the first of (hopefully) three refwatches we didn't want. Last week's one was derailed somewhat. I advised that we were due to get a young and promising referee; instead we got an old and very unpromising one! James Adcock became unavailable and Andy Haines was taken off 4th...

    Let the train take the strain?

    So I've just started at a new job and am trying to work out what will be my best commute. There are two decent options for the journey from Hemel Hempstead to Camden. Option 1 - short drive to my local station (buses in Hemel are infrequent and unreliable), pay for parking, get a train to...

    It's The Destroy This Town Thread

    Ladies and Gents, nominations please for the town or city that deserves instead annihilation for the good of mankind. I give you the case for Erith. It's the pits, full of grotty, grimy high rise flats with equally grotty low lives residing in them. A duel carriageway runs through it except...
  11. Ref Watch ..... Wimbledon A

    Our last three home League matches against AFC Wimbledon have all been defeats, whereas our last three away League games have all been wins (by the comfortable aggregate of 9-1). The referee in charge of the most recent of those wins returns on Tuesday. Tomorrow's referee is Graham Scott from...
  12. Ref Watch ........ Portsmouth A

    For our visit to Portsmouth where we have only ever won once (last year!), the man in charge tomorrow is Lee Collins from Surrey. He was fast tracked through the system and rose to the level of League referee remarkably quickly, this being his fourth season. He started his career off with 6 red...
  13. No game on Saturday? Need your football fix? No problem!

    With Phil Brown very kindly giving us a weekend off from the mad rollercoaster that is Southend United, it leaves some of us football fans/addicts with a problem. So why not support one of our local non-league sides? Players out on loan Witham are away at Grays Athletic. Brown, Banton & Farrell...
  14. Ref Watch ........ Northampton H

    Saturday brings the 114th competitive match between Southend and Northampton including league games, play offs and various cups. Currently the aggregate score is tied at 183-183. Their last 3 visits to Roots Hall have all seen matches producing a red card. Is Saturday's referee a man to bring...

    Student riots

    Shouldn't these yobbos be studying instead of causing disruption to hard working Londoners?
  16. Ref Watch ....... The quintuple is still on! Leverstock Green FA Youth Cup

    Can we go out of all 5 cup competitions at the first hurdle ? Or will the youths save us from that embarrassment? Well it's ideal opposition; some would call it a straightforward home tie, at least one person would refer to it as a "banana skin". Leverstock Green, a village just outside Hemel...

    Pre-Match Thread Mansfield vs Southend

    Doesn't seem to be one of these yet, and with the news breaking of all the comings and goings today, might be some interesting team selections. Mine assuming all the movements happen would be Bentley Williams Sokolik Prosser White Worrall Leonard Timlin...
  19. Ref Watch ....... Bury H

    Matches against Bury of late have been nothing if not close. The last 5 have been draws and the 5 before that were either draws or 1-0s. Tomorrow's referee is a bald man from the armed forces, which will not please everybody! However he's one of the better ones of that ilk. Man in charge will...
  20. FA Youth Cup

    Drawn at home to Leverstock Green (from Hemel Hempstead) or AFC Hornchurch.
