  1. ESB's Champions League Run Down

    It's that time of year again. The time when the Giants of European football clamour together for one big orgy of tactical football and self-congratulation. yes, it's the Champions League group stages, and here is my run down of the groups and who to look out for. Group A On the face of it...
  2. What year - help required

    I am in the process of scanning old photos into my PC (advice to all don't bother - it takes ages) and I 've come across 2 photos taken in the players lounge. In one I'm with 2 friends and ooh Andy Ansah and in the other with Phil Gridelet (sorry all). One of the lads has a crevette shirt on but...

    White Hart Lane

    I always enjoy a trip to White Hart Lane. Sure, it's in the middle of the north-east London badlands, a destination made even more remote by London Transport's fascination with shutting down the tube on match day, but there are consolations. For starters, there's the stadium itself, a hulking...

    Restaurant in Southend

    I have a birthday coming up and was hoping to celebrate it in style with a few friends going for one of these Blues Lounge packages at one of the home games either side of the big day, which would be Leyton Orient or Leeds. But then Essex Police go and spoil everything by moving the games to...

    Club Hospitality - Blues Lounge

    This Saturday I went to the game via one of the Club's hospitality packages. It was a one off as a friend was back in this country getting married (SamuraiBlue) and we thought we would do something a bit different. Have to say I was very impressed. I had some reservations based on a corporate...

    Lounge

    I have the chance to meet the players tommorow and was wondering if anyone had any words of support they'd like to pass on.
  9. Telford Hospitality

    Shameless plug but seeing as the price is good I thought a few fans might be interested in sampling some cheap hospitality for the Telford match next week. Fans can sample the Executive Suites for just £170 plus VAT - £20 per person. Packages can be built to suit requirements with food for ten...

    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...

    I've just heard that Gary Glitter has been arrested for having Class A drugs in his lounge room, Class B drugs in his kitchen and Class 5C in his bedroom.:)
  12. Tramere weekend

    Just wanted to say what a great weekend we had in Liverpool, obviously the result was a huge blow and getting a blow out at 70mph, 15 miles north of Glasgow did not really set the trend of the day off well. But the evening in Liverpool was fantastic. Myself, Mrs AS, Glasgow (Rich) and MK...

    Manchester United v Barcelona part 2

    When he looks back on this game, Cristiano Ronaldo’s only consolation will be that at least John Arne Riise’s mistake was worse. Not many gifts get handed out at the Camp Nou, but Gabriel Milito’s decision to wave his hands in front of a second minute corner like a man trying to shake off the...

    Your promotion stories...

    Turkey striker, Nihat.

    While England’s footballers sulk in their sun-loungers, the rest of the continent will be contesting the 2008 European Championships. Iain Macintosh, who still won’t allow the word ‘McClaren’ to be uttered in his home, runs the rule over some of the potential stars of the summer. This week, it’s...

  20. so who should our last opponents be at the Hall?

    Supposing our last season will be the 2009-2010 season at Roots Hall and we are ready to move into our new Stadium the following season, who would we play in our last ever game at Roots Hall? A lot of teams moving into a new stadium play a Friendly at the end of the season to close the old...
