    Is div V going to be any easier?

    Having relegated from III last season, I've got 4 top 40 teams in my div IV. Is V going to be any easier next season? My bowlers are still dead.

    OD - Season 23

    First game in Level III, and it's against the other side who got promoted, Stoneheads. They are ranked 73 in England. And have 2 players on about 200,000 BTR I have little if no chance. :'(
  5. Question Should racing or even riding horses be banned?

    I am a big racing fan and yet I've been affected by the deaths of three of my favourite horses in the last six weeks. I'm starting to feel that jump racing in particular has an uphill task justifying its continued existence. The grand national has reinforced these feelings. However the...

    Actors in films before their time

    I watched Omen III last night, and saw Eric Richard as an astronomer's technician. Eric went on to greater success as Bob Cryer on the Bill. Two more examples came to mind of people in films who had bit-parts who went onto bigger things (for them anyway) - Larry Lamb (Archie in Eastenders) is...

    Fossetts Farm (your thoughts please)

    (i) Anyone surprised by the announcement that building work is unlikely to begin until next year at the earliest (ii) Anyone surprised that no official statement has materialised from SUFC (iii) Are Sainsburys likely to call a halt and go elsewhere (iv) Have the Pizza parlours been paid off (v)...

  10. Blackout Rugby

    How is everyone doing on Blackout now? It's been a while since we've had any threads. I think I've probably reached my highest ranking ever after my weekend game. Ranked #1 in Essex, #5 in England and #33 in the World. I know my team isn't actually that good, but it's nice to be that highly...
  11. Roman Numerals

    Worried this thread might sound a bit like a Ricey special, but here goes. For our first year anniversary, the Missus and I have been thinking about getting the inside of our wedding rings engraved. I thought that our date, (20/3/2010) would turn nicely into roman numerals (XX-III-MMX). However...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 2

    "This football club has lacked direction for a long time," Ron Martin told the Evening Echo's Bernie Friend in mid-September 2000. On the pitch Southend United were struggling at wrong end of the Third Division table, having notched up just one win from their opening seven games of the season...

    Biggest English Clubs Part II

    100 First Games

    Continuing on the theme of 100, I was thinking about the differences of opinions between older and younger members and started wondering about my first ever game watching Southend United. I know we did this some time ago but the SZ community has continued to grow so I'm hoping we can get 100...
  18. The best albums of 2006 so far

    Of the 20 or so new albums I've checked out so far this year, the clear front runners are... Mogwai Mr Beast Some are saying a return to form but IMO, they've never made a bad album. That said, this album more than the last few efforts sounds like a band on top of their game and...
