    If there was no more SUFC.

    I would like to make it clear I am not insinuating in anyway that the HMCR will wind us up. It would be a disaster and I would cry forever. Just talking hypoetically - Ifffff......The club was no more and no SUFC team was reformed what would you do with your saturdays. Would you be able to...

    Tevez - The Big Girl

    Heroes can be hard to find in modern football. It's difficult to feel any connection to a teenage millionaire when he signs a contract large enough to fund a hospital wing before he's even scored his 20th Premier League goal. It's impossible to respect a man who passionately expresses his desire...

    Nice joke

    Some random woman stopped me in the streettoday and started telling me a joke. It had all the ingredients of a good joke: child abuse, incestual rape, tears and suffering; but I didn't understand the punchline. Something about £2 a month?

    EPL Has Nothing To Fear From Below

    If you think it's tense at the top of the Premier League, you should see The Championship at this stage of the season. With a collection of runners and riders who all seem incapable of stringing consecutive wins together, it's the division that no-one wants to win. Wolverhampton Wanderers have...

    Titus Astonished Us

    Every now and then, in a pressbox crammed with bitter, cynical old journalists, there is a frisson of excitement. Something wonderful ripples up and down the rows of greying, over-weight hacks, a buzz to make them believe in magic again. Usually its source is a young starlet like Jack Wilshere...

    Colchester United Ball Boys

    Where do they get these muppets from? Once the ball boy picked the ball up when it had STOPPED ON THE PITCH, an active ball over near the corner flag and the keeper had gone up to take a free kick. If our player had seen it could have been two nil with the easiest goal we will score all...

    Does The Big C Make You A Big C?

    I'm just in from my daily walk. Despite the cold my face is burning up. Although the wander was a modest one, to Southchurch Park, the seafront and then back home, my body aches all over and I'm far too tired for a bloke of my age to be. You see, people, I have cancer - and I'm fare more...
  19. Ref Watch Referees and things .....

    The general tirade of abuse directed towards the, on this occasion, hapless Mr Ward seems to have run over a couple of threads so I'll put my response in a seperate one. Whilst most of the criticism is undoubtedly justified, there is included amongst it, a number of inaccuracies and...

    Magical Modric

    Spread the word, Luka Modric has arrived. After six months of being kicked off the ball, stamped into the mud and having his pocket money stolen by the bigger boys, the little Croatian wizard has finally put in a performance worthy of his reputation. He tore Stoke City apart at White Hart Lane...
