    Bad news for Essex

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket/6676739.stm Both Mervyn Westfield and Maurice Chambers are suffering stress fractures of their backs and are pretty much out for the season. I was hoping for big things from these two England under-19 bowlers. Westfield in particular had impressed me...

    Letter to the Chancellor...

    Oops, looks like Mervyn has had to write to Gordon to explain why inflation this month is at 3.1%... clicky (pdf) Two thoughts: 1. Interest rates will be up again next month - watch out all those on anything other than fixed rate mortgages. 2. This paragraph leapt out: Why did CPI inflation...

    The 1980-1 championship team

    John Walker A defender, Walker made 51 league appearances in 6Å years at Southend. In 1983 he joined the police; at 47, he is a chief inspector in Rayleigh, Essex. 2 David Cusack Signed from Sheffield Wednesday in 1978, Cusack played more than 200 times in defence for the Shrimpers and was...
  9. Darryl Flahavan

    I believe today's game marked Darryl Flahavan's 200th FULL appearance for the club (202 appearances in all) as he continues to chase fourth-place Mervyn Cawston's 242 in the all-time appearance chart for keepers. Well done Darryl - I certainly didn't think he'd make 200...
