    When times were worse

    Ok, things aren't going brilliantly at the moment, but lets remember where we came from. I've been tidying some boxes this week, and stumbled across a copy of the Swansea Evening Post, dated Saturday December 13th 2003 (apologies, but this is obviously written from the perspective of a Swans...

    Yorkshire triple?

    The Olympics thread

    Ok, so what's everyone looking forward to? Hopefully GB will fill their boots in the track cycling, plus I'm really hoping Phillips Idowu does it in the triple jump, although I've got a nasty feeling he won't. One of the stars of the track and field should be the Croatian high jumper Blanka...

    Rafa Benitez

    In an ideal world, Rafa Benitez would have flown back to England with the rest of us on Monday, tingling with excitement after watching one of the finest international tournaments in decades and clutching a notepad full of potential summer signings. In an ideal world, as manager of one of the...

    The MLB thread

    Don't know if anyone else follows American rounders now BAG has been banned. My Reds are having a real up and down season. They fired their highly regarded GM after starting 9-12, saying they wanted to win now, and promptly went and lost more games. They dealt the 5-tool ex-crack addict, Josh...

    Little Mark

    A teacher asks her class, 'If there are 5 birds sitting on a fence and you shoot one of them, how many will be left?' She calls on little MARK. He replies, 'None, they will all fly away with the first gunshot.' The teacher replies, 'The correct answer is 4, but I like your thinking.' Then...

    Port Vale..

    One of the most honest and funny statements I've ever heard from a manager at an after match conference!!. I think it's safe to say he will be leaving shortly.. Port Vale coach Mark Grew slammed the players as the worst he had ever worked with after a 3-1 defeat at Leyton Orient. Luke...
  9. Did Sir Steve have a bad game ?

    I thought so. Leon Clarke is not a target man (although he diidn't shirk giving it a go) so the dreadful semi-hoof ed "out ball" from Richards (cos they don't trust him to knock it 10 yards to the fullback) was going nowhere and Eric was not ready for a gruesomely knowledgeable Tranmere...

    The fbm view and ratings - Tranmere

    TRANMERE GO TOP AS SOUTHEND SLIP TO SEVENTH Southend's unbeaten 5 match run came to an end this afternoon as the visitors from the Wirral deservedly ran out winners at The Hall. Sometimes, Southend play well and sometimes they don't. However, on some occasions, credit must be given to the...

    Five go mad in Sunderland. Or have a few beers anyway...

    Here's a review of Saturday in Sunderland, courtesy of Statski.... I think when the fixtures came out at the start of the season the away day trip to Sunderland ranked high upon peoples away games to do. One hell of a way to go for 90 minutes of football but seeing The Shrimpers playing in a...

    Super Bowl XLI

    Was anyone else silly enough to stay up and watch it last night? I got to bed at 3.30am. I can't help thinking that my current inability to type or concentrate is entirely my own fault. Still, good game. Colts totally ripped them a new triple burger in the third trimester. Bears just couldn't...

    Ryce is twice as nice

    Jamal Campbell-Ryce struck twice as Southend threw the form book out of the window to secure a vital 3-1 victory against in-form West Brom. The winger had failed to score a single goal for the Championship's basement side prior to the visit of promotion-chasing Albion, but he produced two...

    SUFC vs WBA - Official SZ.com report

    steveo1 has produced the first report and ratings of the New Year, barely an hour and half after the final whistle. Enjoy! The Christmas period has been a funny old time for the Blues. An abysmal home display against the League leaders was followed by two good away draws at Norwich and...

    PANTO SEASON IN FULL SWING AT ROOTS HALL Roll up! Roll up! Come and see the Christmas pantomime. No – not Dick Whittington at the Cliffs, or The Wizard of Oz at the Palace, but one that beats the lot – Cinderella at Roots Hall. Why Cinderella? Because no Southend players went to the ball (at...

  18. Hooper

    I reckon Hooper deserves a start very soon, everytime he has come on as sub this season he has looked dangerous. His touch looks superb and we always look more of a threat up front when he comes on. In my opinion he changed the game when he came on last night, and also was part of the triple...

    BRIGHTON ROCK AS LATE SHOW SEALS BLUES PASSAGE Southend made heavy going of their 2nd round Carling Cup tie against Brighton at Roots Hall this evening, but in the end it was a naive managerial decision by Albion caretaker boss Dean Wilkins that showed Blues the way.  Tilly had made 2 changes...
