    Has Ron Martin died?

    Just a simple question as it seems our less than illustrious leader hasnt had a word to say in quite some time. Before you all jump on and say he gets shot down everytime he says something so perhaps hes just keeping quiet , id just like to point out that the reason he gets slated is that...

    This is England '86

    Anyone else been watching this? As much as i like the original film, this hasnt really hit the spot for me. Its kind of good, but i cant help thinking that whoever has written it has watched a few to many episodes of Skins.

    Croydon Athletic The Fall Guys In Pakistan Spot Fixing Scandal

    I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned on here but it looks like Ryman Premier League side Croydon Athletic will soon become defunct. In the course of HMRC investigations into Mahzar Majeed, the bookmaker at the centre of the Pakistan spot fixing scandal, it was found that since he bought the...
  4. Parking help required...

    If anyone could give me some advise on the following matter I would very much appreciate it... Basically, I moved into a flat a while ago (renting), and we were told we had use of Both parking spaces on the drive out the front (Landlord owns the freehold or something). Now when we moved in a...

  6. Great Yarmouth

    I'm on a Stag do this weekend in Great Yarmouth. I've not been to Yarmouth in years and was speaking to a guy over the weekend who has been there once or twice when he was living in Norwich and he didn't have much in the way of complimentary things to say about the place. I'm hoping that the...
  7. Arteta for England?

    I'd be very interested to see some opinions on this subject, as with the complete lack of creativity from our midfield, Arteta would be a very astute addition to England's midfield, and it's only because of Xavi and Iniesta, two of the finest central midfielders in the world, that he hasn't...
  8. Southend have lost their minds !

    Waking up this morning to find that we have let O'keefe go for FREE has done it for me Ive been a season ticket holder for 4 years now and just this season has has frustrated me the most we could of kept barnard and maybe he would of kept us up but no ron martin has to have money and we could of...

    McCormack / Francis & Revell

    All playing tonight in the Orient v Charlton match. McCormack - Started in a very angry fashion and could easily have a yellow already. Francis - His usual dodgy "I can't be bothered attitude" and caught out of position again. Revell - Hasn't been in the game yet but won a corner getting...
  10. Ref Watch ... Stockport

    The referee on Saturday will have been to Roots Hall more often than most of our players. The man in charge is Iain Williamson from Berkshire who is in his 7th season as a League referee. Played non-league for Walton & Hersham until injury forced him into refereeing. He did absolutely no games...

    Rumours and snippets from the derby game

    Anyone see or hear anything of note? So far we have; 1) sturrock hasn't signed a contract 2) Laurent and JFC were in attendance and saying they done want to leave And my one, I am sure I saw Lenny Pidgeley at half time and he said sturrock called him in that morning for a trial.
  13. Inception

    Have to admit this film has snuck up on me, but man I'm well excited about seeing it tomorrow. 87% on Rotten Tomatoes Trailers: 1 2 3 Chris Nolan (Dark Knight, Memento, The Prestige) is rapidly becoming a must see director, and he hasn't made a film that's even remotely average. All star cast...

    Duran Reynolds

    Did we release him, sorry if we have and this should be in ex shrimpers. Just noticed that he played for Dagenham and Redbridge in their two friendlies against Bromley and Dartford. Also notice Scannell hasn't played for them.

    Embargo. Warning, this thread may contain positive views.

    Been thinking about today's events. My take is, as long as Paul Sturrock remains in charge, I don't think the embargo is a problem - right now. We've seen today, it hasn't stopped players committing theirselves to the club, nor the club issuing 2 year deals. Sturrock seems to be able to...

    Breaking News Fickle Football Fans

    It amazes me just how fickle football fans are, don't get me wrong im probably just as bad. However since Sunday i cannot believe how people are reacting to Ron's latest episode. Ron has used and abused, Staff, Players, Sponsors, Suppliers, Fans and the last straw our Legend of a Manager...

    The Eastwood Years?!

    Is it just me or is the reference to 'The Eastwood Years' in the Tilson club statement another poor showing and complete lack of class from the club. They did the same with the exit of Barrett and McCormack and the rediculous 'similar terms' comment, making a statement that should convey...

    Are we that surprised really?

    My first post for a while, have been lurking and reading with interest. Is this the worst state the club has ever been in? Well, I remember the dark days of the 1980's when we were hours from extinction. It was different. I can't remember if it was worse, but it was different. The only...

    Anybody know why the lottery hasn,t been drawn since the 24th may? Have we ran out of prizes?

    Maradona: The Legend

    I'm quite surprised there hasn't been more about the Argentine manager, his flair and his press conferences on here... This one was a little outrageous.... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/world_cup_2010/8744666.stm But this just made me laugh...
