    Will PB be dismissed by Ronald before the seasons end?

    Simple question with this monumental collapse in form will PB fall foul of Ronalds impatience? I think if we lose the next two then he will be dismissed. Sturrock was dismissed for less.

    Grays - Andrew Swallow

    In court today: SWALLOW: GRAYS BOSS 'ORGANISED FOOTBALL VIOLENCE' A football club boss who glorified his links to a notorious hooligan group tried to set up a clash between Millwall and West Ham fans, the Old Bailey heard today (TUES). Andrew Swallow, then chief executive of non-league Grays...

    Some random questions

    Just found some old programmes/fanzines from the 90s and early 2000s, some interesting stuff. A few questions: 1) Who officially opened the Far Post wine bar? 2) Which goalkeeper scored for Southend from open play in an Essex Senior Cup game? 3) Which criminal goaded the Southend players in...

    The TrueBlue Rally Cry - Rochdale

    Well well well, what a last few weeks its been on the pitch for Southend but my friends our work is not complete. Today we see a decent Rochdale side at the hall from the grim outskirts of North Manchester birthplace of the Co-Op movement but all that aside we can't afford to be lax in the...
  5. Ref Watch ..... Wycombe at home

    Today's referee is Stuart Attwell from Warwickshire, refereeing his 4th Southend match. A somewhat notorious official, Mr Attwell was promoted to the Select Group after just two unexceptional seasons as a League referee. It is fair to say that this fast-tracking favoritism caused more than a...
  6. Harshest Musician on Musician insults

    Some of these made me properly LOL! 30. Wayne Coyne on Arcade Fire “I get really tired of their pompousness [sic]… We’ve played some shows with them and they really treat people like ****. People treat Arcade Fire like they’re the greatest thing ever and they get away with it… They have good...
  7. notorious ex-shrimper in action today!

    Just watched Jason Lee amble around for 90 minutes. Some nice touches, some lazy stretches, some commanding headers (including a goal rather harshly disallowed for a foul on the keeper), some awful failures to meet the ball in the air, some mild protests, some very casual shrugs. 39 now...

    Reasons to love Hitchcock

    1. In 'Psycho', where the guy is creeping up the stairs to check out the mother's bedroom, and the camera switches to an overhead view and then - out of nowhere - she rushes out knife in hand. ***** me up just thinking about it. 2. For that amazing shot in 'Frenzy' where you realise that the...

    Hip-Hop Tuesday

    Haven't done this for a while. In light of the new film about Notorious BIG coming out soon, this is a video from him, as a 17 year-old freestyling. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rKnMp9U-Lg Oh and some MF Doom as well http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQakz9-kvfI

    2 True Stories!

    STORY NUMBER ONE Many years ago, Al Capone virtually owned Chicago . Capone wasn't famous for anything heroic. He was notorious for enmeshing the windy city in everything from bootlegged booze and prostitution to murder. Capone had a lawyer nicknamed "Easy Eddie." He was...
  11. 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...

    Interview with a zoner part 5.

    The most recent interview is with MK SHRIMPER, often on the zone as a political thinker, notorious as a bad dancer but more importantly is very close to being chairman of our national railways. Q1 - In your capacity as a potential head honcho for for the railways what message can you send to...

    United ease through

    Manchester United, eliminated from the Champions League by an Italian side last season, have clearly leaned their lesson well, for this was a victory copied straight out of the Serie A handbook. There were no wanton flourishes, no unnecessary garnish, this was just cold, merciless football and...

    Gilbert -

    Why hasn't he been used? I know he's got supposed attitude problems, but this is a right back who tore up the championship at points last year, and still manages to have a contract with Arsenal, who are notorious for releasing young talent. To drop someone after five games or whatever it was...

    How many times must Macca's bad temper cost up points.

    First off I want to say that I love Macca as a player. I cant question his dedication to the cause and I love his fighting spirit. I accept that that fighting spirit can sometimes boil over but..... How many times must the bloke get pointless bookings and in the case of saturday pointless...
  16. Palace 3 - 1 Shrimpers

    This took too long to write. MtS has beaten me to it (and a good report too!), but I may as well post the fruits of my labours. Just got back from Selhurst Park. Here's my two penneth: First Half A great early break really set the tone for the first half, Bradders worked his socks off...
  17. 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die

    Just heard about this book that was published late last year - some strange choices and (IMHO) some glaring ommisions. That said, I own 293 of these and have heard a further 108 giving me a respectable total of 401. To be honest, dying would be a favourable option to hearing most of the others...
  18. 96/97 Season

    What sort of memories do people have of the ill-fated 96/97 season, our last in the upper echelons of the Football League? We're putting together a new feature for SZ about notorious seasons and the 96/97 Ronnie Whelan inspired relegation campaign is up first. Remember when we beat front-runners...

    Who Writes this?

    According to the official web site the Bonanza Days are "notorious events". It also calls them "infamous". Why, what happens at these that makes them so sinister, and gives them such a bad reputation? I think someone has swallowed a thesaurus and not bothered with the...
