  1. Ref Watch .... Chelsea

    As we take on Chelsea competitively for the 3rd time in the club's history, referee Stuart Attwell from Warwickshire referees us for the 3rd time. (The other two were one win, one defeat ... I'd take the draw to complete the set!) A somewhat notorious official, Mr Attwell was promoted to SG...

    England Have Turned Me Grey

    This week, I made the shocking discovery that I'm going grey. Underneath my enormous thatch of long brown hairs, two brigades of white ones have been outflanking me just above the ears in a slow, silvery advance that had gone entirely unnoticed. The sad thing is that I can pinpoint the origin of...

    When Will The Levy Break?

    As Daniel Levy sits and stares at the league table during this interminable international break, I wonder how long it will be before he concludes that, with the benefit of hindsight, finishing fifth every year wasn't actually all that bad. Tottenham Hotspur are in crisis. Even though it's...

    Stupid England Get There Slowly

    The signs of improvement are visible, but Fabio Capello's mission to revitalise the England team is still some way from completion. There were moments, during this frustrating, attritional non-contest, of class and sophistication, but sporadic style couldn't eclipse the fact that this side are...

    Is Football ****ed?

    They say that a week is a long time in politics but, in football, it's a veritable epoch. This time seven days ago, Manchester City were struggling to pay their players, West Ham were enjoying their best start to a season in nine years and, at a surprisingly perky and entertaining Newcastle...

    Arsenal Put Plenty Past Twente

    Crisis? What crisis? Arsenal's early season jitters were massaged away last night with a comfortably comprehensive victory over FC Twente that secured their place in the group stages of the Champions League. In today's hyper-sensitive, overly-neurotic game, it doesn't take much to put that 'c'...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 1

    Cast your mind back almost ten years; could you honestly see us reaching this pivotal moment in the history of Southend United? Back in 1998 the football club was skint; it couldn't pay its players, it couldn't pay its creditors, it couldn't pay the Inland Revenue; the future was so bleak that...

    the fbm view and ratings

    I relied on my trusty Sat Nav system to get me to the ground (despite my C********r adventure) and got there at 2:00 having set off from Leigh at 11:30 (petrol stop en route).  Not bad. Having nabbed the parking space next to the away entrance (and reversed in, making for a quick getaway) we...

    More C2C madness

    I got on the 17:15 from Fenchurch Street last night only for it to be cancelled at 17:16 due to the lack of any guard to run the train. Upon leaving the train I looked on the departure board for details of the next train to Benfleet, which it was claimed departed platform 2 at 17:30, first stop...
