    The fbm view and ratings - Canvey

    CANVEY HIT FOR SIX IN PARK LANE TURKEY SHOOT Southend continued their impressive scoring run in one of the most one sided games I have ever seen... and to be honest the disappointment is that Southend could have easily been well into double figures. Tilson played moreorless two different...

    European security warnings

    In view of recent terrorist activities in United Kingdom and elsewhere there has been an increase in international security levels The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent terrorist threats and have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon though, security...
  3. My first day at work, by Cheltenham Shrimper, aged 23 and 51 weeks.

    Started my new job today working as a Teaching Assistant at one of the Schools in Cheltenham. It was eventful, to say the least. In one class, Year 9's, 4 of the students decided to fight one another with the underneath of the chairs (The legs poking out of each other), a couple of the...
  4. West Sham Shocker!

    Having cheated the Blades out of their rightful place in the premiership and got away with all sorts of alleged dodgy financial shenanigans, I heard today that West Sham demanded six grand from the Shrimpers for the game on the 28th July. It's nice to know that they have absolutely no shame. How...

    Father to Son

    In what has been something of a shock to the system recently, Mrs Hank and I have started contemplating the idea of making and raising a little Hank. As I survey the wreckage that purports to be a society these days with its depleted traditional values, lack of discipline, absence of respect and...

    Most un-funny Comedian of all time?

    I am debating if I fancy going to see Frank Skinner in concert in Brighton in November. Not sure he is really for me but might give it ago. I decided to canvas the opinion of the people in the office if he is funny or not. Sandie said that he is not funny but then no-one makes her laugh except...

    Hilarious Holloway Interview

    Don't know if anyone else heard this, but... After the last-minute, gutting defeat at Plymouth a few weeks ago, and being wound up by little five year old sh**ts trying to give it large, we got to the car in the carpark at Home Park to stick on BBC Radio Devon. I then proceeded to laugh my nuts...

    I know its unlikely but this is what we need to happen

    west brom and wolves and preston in their next matches progress onto 73/74 points , while southampton only draw at Norwich and are out of play-off contention by the time we play them.(If Southampton need a point or 3 , then we have to hope the pressure gets to them more than us ) . Cardiff...

    Echo today

    Freddy doubtful for weekend. Was "nowhere near fit" last Saturday apparently. Contradicts what they said yesterday but just our luck I guess.
  10. Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset

    The Most Miserable Plonker at Roots Hall Today Was ....

    ..the club official who tried to stop the ticker-tape effort from the South Upper (West side) as the teams entered the pitch at the start. He seemed to be concerned about the mess it was going to make, and from pitch side tried to persaude the half dozen or so fans from what they were about to...
  11. The (Very Long) Diary of a Happy Fan

    Tuesday 3rd - Just come back from the pub, nice chat with Ron Mack, told him that I couldn't afford any more trips to watch the Blues this season, especially as out of 5 trips I had managed 2 draws and 3 defeats. Friday 6th - Incredible, just told my son that I hoped we wouldn't give away an...
  12. The Financial Cost Of Relegation

    unlike some of the idiots on here, who think for some reason we are going keep crowds of 7,000 despite the obvious reduction in away fans, the real truth is we will be lucky to get 5,000 a game next season, as again this team may just about finish 12th in the league, thats going to mean a...

    What's the real reason?

    Todays defeat hurt. Not because it was against Col U, although there are no doubt some on here that think that if we only won 2 games all season as long as they were against Col U then that would be ok. It hurt because of the stage of the season we are at and the importance of those three...
  14. Hattrick Youth League

    Well the first ever Shrimperzone Youth League fixture is nearly over and so far my players have been pretty disappointing. Currently losing 2-0 to COshrimp (Colorado Shrimpers youth team). Will be interested to see what the ratings are like. Was wondering if anyone knew the answers to a few...

    Blues Worlds...

    The blues worlds interviews on O/S normally follow with a write up of what the interviews say (I think that makes sense!) but Eastwood's and Macca's interviews haven't. Eg. Tilly's Video Interview and Tilly's Written Interview If someone would be kind enough to write up basically what...

  18. Just Unlucky

    At the end of the Day ,it was a travesty of justice that we didn't get all three points against Palace .The stats on the official site say that we had 19 Shots ,thats the sort of Shots you have when you win a game 5-0 .It was just one of those nights ,at least we created the chances in the...

  20. Thugs Ruined Our Day

    I know there have been threads re; the abuse from Spurs fans on Saturday, but our day was ruined by thugs in our ranks. I should be able to take my son to away matches without exposing him to aggressive and abusive behaviour. If anyone reading this was involved in such behaviour, then shame on...
