  1. Possible pitch inspection?

    Don't know what it is like at the ground but it seems quite icy down here on the rock. Is there likely to be a pitch inspection today?

  4. Rocky

    Ive been ill for the last couple of days and Ive watched Rocky 1,2 and 3. Ive seen the first one before, but this time I saw it, it was fantastic. I didnt think the second would be as good, but in my eyes it was better. Then the third. Excellent as well. Didnt think it was as good as the second...

    Pre-Match Thread Southend Seek To Add To Scolari's Woes

    Don't panic on the first line, you haven't got the day wrong. This is for tomorrow's paper! Six months ago, who could have believed that Chelsea would see tonight’s trip to Southend as anything other than a formality? For just a brief period at the start of his reign, Luiz Felipe Scolari...
  6. Good time to play them!

    Just watched the Man u game and thought Chelski looked like a team that are feeling rock bottom.Lacked anything going forward even when he stuck Anelka up with the diver Drogba could not manage a shot on target.Once again the only player who is keeping together the team is Lampard besides that...
  7. Orange Unsigned Acts on Channel 4

    Has anyone else been watching this over the past month on Channel 4 on Sunday afternoons. Finding it really interesting viewing and a lot more interesting than X-Factor. Basically for those that haven't seen it 7000 acts (from metal-rap-rock-pop-folk etc) sent in entry disks, this was cut down...

    Gangsters' Paradise at Stamford Bridge

    Coolio appears to be having a decent game for Romanian side Cluj tonight at Chelski. If the Romanians get a result with the help of old skool rap stars, can we see if Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock are available to turn out for us in the FA Cup?

    Question Away attendances

    How do you think our away attendances compare to years gone by? In the following scenario which happened in 1923, how do you think they would have compared. Southend have just played a first round cup tie at home against poor non league opposition and they struggled, only managing to win 1-0 by...
  10. Question Should I email Arsene?!?!

    I am deliberating emailing my Gooner mate & Arsene himself regarding a one week lone of Robin Van Persie for the first week in 2009, of course, he wouldn't be cup tied etc - well not until he returns to Arsenal anyway! Throwing in the usual free lodgings, stick of rock, kiss me quick hat etc -...

    Interview with an Exile: Part 5 - SpanishShrimper

    This week, Nick (SpanishShrimper), from Spain answers the questions. I haven't had the time to check his answers, so hope there is nothing too embarrassing etc. that shouldn't be here.... :unsure: 1) How long have you been an exile? A) Well technically, since I left the Southend area...

    It Could Be Worse, You Could Be Steve

    This is something a little different, it's for a magazine given to professional footballers. I'd be interested to know what you think. Football, as you'll probably know better than me, is a game of stark contrasts, subject to swift changes that are rarely polite enough to warn of their...

  14. 1 million in negative equity

    this morning the bank of england has warned that 1 million homes could fall into negative equity and also predict that values could decrease by a further 15%. my view is simple, the more snatch backs which go to auction will result in property prices falling further than 15%,i reckon it will...

    Gerrard & Co Give Scolari The Blues

    Apologies for the lateness of this, chaps. Should have been up straight after full-time. They may have come back from the dead against Manchester United in September and they might have turned the game around against Arsenal in Easter, but of all the teams to end their 86 game unbeaten home...

    Spurs Are Rubbish. Seriously.

    Martin Jol was sacked for less than this. With just one point from their opening four games, their worst start to a season since 1974, this new-look Tottenham Hotspur are rock bottom of the Premier League. Jol, meanwhile, is top of the German Bundesliga with his new club Hamburg. Ah, the irony...
  17. Why drugs are good

    In response to the Why Drugs Are Bad Thread... Electronica jazz-freak and well renowned acid head Squarepusher has put forward a strong case for why drugs are good! “This album started as a daydream about watching a crazy, beautiful rock band play an ultra-gig. At first, a giant fluorescent...
  18. What f**king annoys me

    Is when idiot psychologists try and pigeon hole people... A study by a psychology professor has found links between personality and music taste. The Heriot-Watt university professor Adrian North said: "We have always suspected a link between music taste and personality. This is the first time...
  19. Thuggish behavour

    In the coach after the game alongside us was a Dad and his two sons. Now when the Dad wasn't looking his son who must have been about 8 at most started making gestures at the coach, everybody just laughed. Suddenly the dad starts making "come on then" gestures at the coach like some wannabe...
  20. Ref Watch ...... Orient in the Paint thing.

    Man in charge for tomorrow's match is Graham Scott from Abingdon. He is a very new referee, this being his third match at this level and his first involving League One sides. He is being eased gently into League football with just the two games at Barnet and Dagenham under his belt so far. Seems...
