  1. Centenary Match

    Did anyone else notice in Friday's Echo that the Portsmouth match on the 26th July is apparently the Centenary match? So a 100 years gets celebrated on a Wednesday night, and although Prem opposition not exactly top notch is it? Thanks to the club who told me it would be 22nd or 29th...

    views from afar

    As I have just made my return to these shores, I thought I would make a few comments on how I have seen the season going from Canada. With my staunch refusal to subscribe to a service that is constantly criticised, I've had to rely on Canadian coverage of League one football. In short...
  3. (Not) An Update On Centenary Celebrations

    Having not had a reply to an email to the club, I called them to try to establish when a centenary celebration match might be played as I am keen to book my usual July holiday. A chap in the comercial department said it would be a Saturday and most likely 22nd or 29th July. I enquired about...
  4. Nice one

    Been glued to BBC Essex all afternoon... Big win for you today, it was a 6 pointer and you spanked them. As for us, once again we went to a tricky away game and got the job done. So... you're top on 50 points, we're 4 behind you but with two games in hand. Not sure which position...

    Yahoo News Story

    Is it any wonder why we wonder sometimes why this country appears to be going down the tubes? Mods, this is not a racist posting, I just felt it's a current news story worth discussing whilst we're devoid of any football chat & is intended to provoke debate at a time of political...

  8. Who would we MISS the most

    Personally i think we would miss Gower's creatibility and Eastwoods brilliance to get a goal from nothing. However Barrett's importance at the back cannot be under-estimated.

    Port Vale

    Taken from the Sporting Life Website... "VALE HOPING FOR TAKE-OFF Cash-strapped Coca-Cola League One club Port Vale may be set for a financial windfall by renaming themselves and their stadium name in honour of Stoke-born Reginald Mitchell, who designed the Spitfire fighter plane...

    The fbm view and ratings

    There is something about a fixture against Swindon that conjures up special memories for me.  Two of the finest games I have ever seen at the Hall have been against the Robins, a 5-3 victory in the early 80’s and a 3-2  victory in our first season in the old division 2, with Ian Benjamin laying...
  12. Tackling my Demons by Stan Collymore

    “There are two occasions in my career that made everything I have gone through worth it”. As I stood there, my mind started to turn. Was he talking about Kirsty Gallagher, I would. Or maybe it was one of the other beauties he had bedded. “The other game I cherish having being part of was...
  13. Signature Images

    Images in sigatures have always raised more than a few murmurs of discontent, especially from those who access ShrimperZone from work where they run the danger of the image in question being pinpointed from some CyberPatrol software and recorded against them. And, of course, large images tend to...
  14. Update Please

    Could anyone please update me on the comings and goings of the past week and anything of importance. Thanks
  15. For all those who work in IT

    1. When you call us to have your computer moved, be sure to leave it buried under half a ton of postcards, baby pictures, stuffed animals, dried flowers, bowling trophies and children's art. We don't have a life, and we find it deeply moving to catch a fleeting glimpse of yours. 2. Don't write...
