  2. Trescothick Suffers Groundhog Day Again

    The news that Marcus Trescothick failed to overcome his demons to compete properly in the Champions League Twenty20 Trophy is desperately sad, but all the more tragic is how predictable this was. Trescothick is essential to any hopes of success Somerset harboured this Summer and went to great...

    The troublesome third and fourth places...

    So, folks, poll time: it's time for the collective wisdom of ShrimperZone to come to the rescue of the England selectors. Who do we pick to fill the troublesome third and fourth spots in the England batting line up? The above six names have been bandied around... so, who do we pick? Or do you...

    Ta-raa Ronaldo!

    Beep beep! Come on Ronaldo, I'll drive you to the airport myself. It's long past time you left. I've had enough of the diving, the whining, the cheating, the feigning, the petulant tantrums and the rolling around on the ground and, you know what? I doubt I'm the only one. On behalf of my fellow...

    Who Would You Be? Bill or Roman?

    Who would you rather be this summer? Multi-billionaire owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich or reasonably wealthy owner of Everton, Bill Kenwright. Think carefully before you choose, there's more to this than meets the eye. Kenwright may have left Wembley empty-handed on Saturday night, but at...

    Ron's Blog 6/5/09

    Haven't seen this anywhere else yet...... Chairman's Blog What a good day Saturday was and with nothing to play for I thought that the team performed well and remained committed to the cause right to the end. It was also a day to celebrate the success of the Club’s youth policy which, I...

    Media Catch On To Redknapp's Failings - At Last

    It's taken about 10 years but finally someone working in the media has articulated the same opinion I have held about professional cockney loudmouth Harry Redknapp. From today's Mirror. I watched an old fella suffer badly the other night. My 71-year-old father-in-law has followed Burnley...

    Is it Right or Wrong to complain to a moderator and request Bans?

    Or should we value their time and input and let them do the job themselves? I know that in the last week I have been "grassed" on twice publicly, possibly more privately. A quick glance in the profile messages of certain other users would suggest that there are some semi private complaints...

    Shambles at St James

    Kevin Keegan has gone, Mike Ashley is going and the Toon Army can no longer be relied upon to fund the senseless destruction of their football team. Newcastle United are in meltdown, slumped near the bottom of the Premier League and now, thanks to this lacklustre defeat at the hands of...

    Luiz Felipe Scolari

    If Luiz Felipe Scolari has learned anything in his first month in English football, it's that Sir Alex Ferguson doesn't waste any time in welcoming new rivals to the Premier League. The Manchester United manager's snipe about Chelsea players and their advanced ages came whizzing in under radar...
  14. The Silence Is Deafening

    2 1/2 Weeks to go until the big kick off and we have 13 squad players... Now, I won't use Braintree as an excuse, mainly because I think the number of friendlies we've played in quick succession didn't help the performance, but whereas I think the team we have is capable of great things in this...

    Why i feel its right to vent your anger at the team

    It seems obvious that the team we have this season has divided many of our fans as to whether or not it is getting better or is it diclining into a team that is unreconisable to the successful ones we have been used to under Sir Steve. No one can deny that the management , the chairman , the...
  16. The end is nigh.....

    for Mr. Tilson. Lets look at the overall picture.. Saves us from oblivion at the botom of L2, gets us to two LDV finals, successive promotions.. then, immediate relegation, a poor league run, only helped with some loan signings, a play off position that flattered to deceive, played off the...

    Dimitar Berbatov

    Tottenham fans won't be able to draw much comfort from the news that Manchester United have made an official bid for Dimitar Berbatov, but there is at least one bonus; it might shut Emil Danchev up for a while. Berbatov's dastardly agent has been agitating for a move away from White Hart Lane...

    Chelsea fans will feel crushed today

    Thanks guys, really glad you liked it! Here's the follow-up: High up near the rafters of the Luzhniki Stadium, as the early morning rain washed away the tears of his expensively assembled superstars, the Super Tsar himself, Roman Abramovich, sat disconsolately wondering what might have been...
