  1. The French Re-Vieira

    Roberto Mancini must be feeling in a charitable mood… offering to re-home an aged war-dog like Patrick Vieira certainly caught a few people off guard. The France captain spent the summer being linked with a return to Arsenal, and then August being touted as a shock move for Redknapp’s Spurs in...
  2. 50 games which defined a decade - Part 1 (2000-2004)

    As we've had our last game of the decade, I had planned to do something about the top twenty matches of the ten years just gone but I found it very difficult to leave some matches out, plus in truth it's some of the defeats which have stuck with me the most. And rather than doing a countdown I...

    Martin Curruthers

    I'm not sure if this is still the case, but earlier in the season Curruthers was appointed temporary joint manager of Arnold Town.

    MILLWALL nothing changes.

    A little bit of history repeating itself perhaps? Div 3(S) No. 10 Saturday 6th October 1923 SOUTHEND UNITED 0-0 MILLWALL Millwall came to the Kursaal with very negative hard aggressive tactics, trying to spoil the game and they succeeded in so far as they gained a point, but in the 1920s...

    Their manager's words - not mine. 'We were not good enough' - Lambert Colchester United manager Paul Lambert tells BBC Essex that his side simply weren't good enough after watching them lose 1-0 at home to Crewe. After a temporary blip , normality has resumed. 10Southend 37 -4 55...

    Tilson out?

    I see we've had a bit of a poor run of late which has led to a vocal minority coming out of the woodwork and calling for the gaffer's head. I dug this up from the archives earlier. Just goes to show how far we've come as a club under Tilly and that maybe his biggest 'mistake' was raising...

    Victory For Football? Not Quite...

    Finally someone listened to Kaka. Throughout this entire silly episode, the Brazilian midfielder has begged and pleaded with the AC Milan management not to sell him to Manchester City. He has told them that he wants to stay and captain the side. He said that he wanted to grow old at the San...

    Free-kick spray

    Genius or unneccesary lunacy? BBC I had surreally hoped this was some sort of trained skunk with a 10 yard spray range - maybe I shouldn't have watched Bedknobs and Broomsticks whilst hammered the other night. Given my initial disappointment I can't decide whether this is a really good idea...

    Brighton's New Stadium

    Brighton's New Stadium starts on 17th Dec Dream will become a reality when work starts on Falmer Some dates are imprinted in the minds of Albion fans. May 21, 1983, and April 26, 1997, are two obvious examples. Now December 17, 2008, can be added to the list. A quarter of a century after...

    Limehouse DLR stairs of death.

    It would appear that the temporary steps at Limehouse DLR station have been erected by the same company who erect concert seating at Pink Floyd concerts. I genuinely feared for my life last night. The whole thing looks like it is made from Meccano and each step flexes when you step on it. Every...

    Francis - what's up with him?

    Not wanting to put a downer on last night at all but I cannot even bear to watch Francis anymore. Given that there doesn't seem to be any competition for the place of right back, its no wonder he gets the nod each game even though he has been absolutely dire for 80% of this season so far. Last...

    2012 celebration - was it reflective of modern Britain?

    I thought that the point of 2012, according to the BBC coverage and Seb Coe, was to give the youth of today a memorable Olympic Games. The handover ceremony was handled well I thought, being a bit quirky and an ok mix of old and new, but what the hell was that travesty on tv afterwards? If that...
