  1. Leeds and the FA

    A couple of thoughts occurred to me reading this. Firstly: Leeds they never learn do they? They seem to be trying to recapture their image of the 70s under Revie; no one likes us, we don't care. My main thought though is I remember when Freddie was sent off a couple of seasons back against...

  2. Luis Garcia

    The following is a letter that Garcia wrote to Liverpool FC to put on thier site. A very nice gesture IMHO. Dear Reds, First of all I'd like to apologise for not having been back in touch sooner, but I needed to take some time to take on board all the recent changes and then to put down...

    Pops 18/6

    1 primary pop for me this week (my AR in bowling, which took him long enough), and 2 stamina pops for my seamers. Rather annoyed at the way the form seems to be working out though, as several people who played great games last week suffered form drops in spite of this. For example, one of my...

    Sunderland stats

    Only conceded three in their last 8 and sit top of the league's 8 game form guide (albeit on goal difference from West Brom (anyone know who their only defeat in eight was against) and Derby) In spite of this, they sit 9th in the home league table and they've apparently dropped as many points...

    Friday night vs. Saturday afternoon

    I personally felt that last night underlined once again that evening matches under floodlights generate by far the better atmospheres. The Norwich, Manure and QPR games have all been electric this season - I'm sure that the performances have had more than a little to do with it but there's still...

    January

    I looked at January a while back when Cardiff were top of the pile and thought that we'd do well to get anything out of it. Given how we were playing at the time, I thought we could easily go the month without a point and then have the slimmest chance of staying up. As it is, December was a...

    All over now?

    I don't quite understand why our chances of survival are suddenly all over after losing to the best team in the division. I've just seen the predictions thread and I was amazed that there was only one prediction of a defeat in spite of the fact that Birmingham, only the other week went...

    To those that thought all is was in turmoil

    Back in 2005, following our LDV cup defeat, we had the dubious privelege of a 'derby' match with Orient a few days later. Although we were far from outplayed, I don't think any Shrimper could have argued that there was much if anything betweent he two teams that contested that game...

    The difference yesterday

    First home game of the season I've missed. Don't worry, not going to Luton but I'm hoping we'll have gathered enough momentum in these two games to win in spite of me against Birmingham.

  10. My Hattrick team

    It's occured to me in recent weeks that since being in Canada, I clearly can't devote the time and attention my team needs. Friendlies rarely happen but I'll probably do enough to stay in the league. In spite of that, attendances are up, the supporter club is at an all tiem high and...

    Hattrick this week

    It should have all been so glorious. It was to be the game where I finally break out of mid table mediocrity and go and join the top 4 to compete for promotion. Spent a long time looking at their team and likely formation and worked out which players had to be defensive or offensive, which...

    Money burning a hole

    Might not be much by most people's standards but I have about 100K floating around in spite of signing up two recruits for my PM school. I've had a look at coaches and for pretty much the whole lot I can get a replacement coach in who will have poor leadership but solid training skills...

    the sufcintheprem views and ratingsSmith

    I was very unsure what to expect today against an Oldham side who had made a decent start to the season but I knew little about. By chance, I ended up going to the game with an Oldham fan who was visiting a mate of mine but from his dramtic reactions, it was difficult to get much information out...

    At a turning point

    Having looked through my squad, I've realised that in spite of me attempting to set up a training regime, I've not got any playmakers who look like I will be able to either improve dramatically or sell on. As a result, I'm considering whether or not to change my training regime. I...

    Wayne Gray

    I know I came on here and was fairly critical of Wayne's performance against Port Vale but I thought he was excellent yesterday and in spite of excellent efforts by Maher and Guttridge, was my man of the match. We all know about his workrate, fitness and his determination but yesterday he...

    I wasn't sure how long to leave it.

    ...but this should have been plenty of time (in my world, the last week has seemed like an eternity doing exams). Now that all issues are resolved on the pitch, I feel we need to address the issue off the pitch concerning this stadium that is supposedly going to safeguard the future of the...

    SAFE curse broken!

    Finally, after several months of watching Eastwood play well but never hit the target, I saw an Eastwood goal. Clearly, with my past sorry record, I must have been spotted at games and this resulted in Eastwood being put off (Remember the miss away at Shrews anyone?). As a result I shaved my...

    Natwest

    Just been on the phone to Natwest and I'm pretty much fuming at them. Step one: I pay cheque to the university for £984. £1,090 available in account. Step two: University withhold cheque for a week and a half with no warning. Step three: I got to Bath and Bristol spending thinking somehow I...

    Just got back (and set my laptop up again)

    Absolute sickener last night. My mate invited me to go to Torquay and in spite of my best efforts on the way couldn't stop off at Bristol on the way. Couldn't even hop out of the back of his 3 door Clio. As for that game: -> Fat Fry's team are rubbish and surely must go down...

    Should've just gone to bed...

    Can't believe the yobbish culture today and sadly it seems to be spreading to universities. Was out in a local club in Lufbra and it's one of the post exam nights so the morale should be pretty good. In spite of that, some guy slammed in to my mate who, in regaining balance, bumped in...
