    Hull City

    Hull City, a gritty northern side who were in the bottom division of English football just four years ago, are now 90 minutes away from the bright lights of the Premier League. Manager Phil Brown only took over in January 2007 when the Humberside team were paddling in the relegation zone, but...

    Reserve League Play-Off Final

    Liverpool's senior side may not picked up any silverware this year, but on Wednesday night at Anfield, Gary Ablett's reserve team were on hand to show them how it's done. Having won their regional divisional with room to spare, the youngsters were sent out to face Aston Villa's second string for...

    The fbm report - Walsall

    BLUES GO FOURTH AFTER SADDLERS STROLL Well, stroll might be too strong a word for what on paper was only a 1-0 victory but in reality Southend put on their best and most entertaining performance for many weeks as they totally dominated Walsall at Roots Hall today. The fact that the scoreline...

    Chelsea get through

    Chelsea became the third English side to book their place in the Quarter-Finals of the Champions League and they did it, not by boring their opponents into submission, but by smashing them to pieces with a performance that, strange as it may sound, was as beautiful as it was efficient. Avram...

    Slipperduke's Glamorous Assignment

    Liverpool’s senior side may not be performing as well as we all suspect they could, but Reds supporters can rest easy in the knowledge that the next generation are doing just fine. Liverpool’s reserve side dished out an emphatic 2-0 beating to Manchester United’s second string on Wednesday...

    Nothing Yet For Keegan

    Newcastle’s worrying, barren run under Kevin Keegan stretched to its third game on Wednesday morning when they were beaten for the second time in four days by Arsenal. Once again, the Magpies came to play football and once again they were ruthlessly punished for their audacity. Most managers...

    Few points

    After arriving late to the game (again!) we missed the first five minutes but not, it seemed from the atmosphere, a great deal. The game was trudging along with a few half chances before Wayne Gray picked up a tidy crossed pass from Eastwood and superbly opened up space before lashing the...

    Update of the object of West Country (formerly Vange) Shrimper's affection / desire : "Braintree Town’s excellent run continued with a 3-0 win at Cheshunt but, although the scoreline looks emphatic, things could have been different had Steve Obeng’s effort gone in at 0-0 instead of hitting the...

    A little light reading

    Love it when neutral reports are as generous as this.... Soccernet: Southend v Rushden report "Southend 3-0 Rushden & D'monds: FT Report Kevin Maher's first goal of the season pointed the way to an emphatic 3-0 victory for Southend against Rushden which added impetus to their...
  10. Disappointment

    Coming off the back of a 7-0 humiliation of East Thurrock, I for one expected more. Yes I know that they were only East Thurrock, but to win 7-0 is emphatic to say the least. Tonight the Blues were very slow to get out of the blocks. Penned back in our own half for a good solid 10-15 minutes in...
