    The simple joys (that probably only make sense when you're 50)

    It seems that the older I get, the keener I am to preserve what's still good about life in this battered island. An example ... went into a pub in Penzance earlier this evening to check out whether it would be a good place to see some World Cup action in approximately 11 weeks' time. I'd been...

    Week 3 - OD game 3

    I take on the unbeaten EGV and they look unstoppable so far having chased down 260 on OD1 with 5 overs left on a cracked surface on a cloudy and humid day and then on OD2 racked up 310+ on a Green surface, again on a cloudy and humid day and bowled the oppo out for less than 60. Tomorrow sees...

    SZone Darts Tournament - Saturday 10th April

    I have spoken to Riley's in Leigh and the above is provisonal. The date is one of the very few I'm available from now until end of May. SUFC terms its on the day we goto Leeds Utd but assume most wont be going to this anyway. Gives everyone a couple of months to practice and sort out...
  5. Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend United 2-2 Huddersfield Town

    Thought there were a lot of positives today which outweighed the negatives. IMO it was 2 points dropped (which is bitterly dissapointing) but considering we were playing a highly rated team, i think we performed very well and controlled/dominated proceedings for large portions of the game...

    Season Long Loans!

    Now as the start of the season is just over a month away and permanant signings seeming more unlikely who would you like to see us go for on a long term loan or a free. Short term loans are also ok but not to many because we can come unstuck mid season like last year. So which players would you...

    Tyne Is Running Out

    Newcastle United are going down. Whatever you read in the press, whatever club sources say on the website, they are circling the drain ready to be sucked down into the Championship. There is no hope on Tyneside anymore. Their supporters, more than anyone else at the club, realise that this is...

    FAO Mr Peter Clarke

    I know some people on here have good connections at the Club, and that some Club officials read this forum so I was hoping this will get passed onto Peter Clarke if at all possible. Clarke, First of all, I was the bloke in the white adidas jumper in East Reds that had a pop at you, and others...

    He Doesn't Want To Go!

    Have you ever been stood at a bar patiently waiting to be served a drink, only to see everyone else around you get theirs first? Or in a meeting, continually making points that no-one acknowledges? If so, you know what it is to be Kaka this week. The poor boy must be convinced that he's become...

    Question How Long?

    Assuming we do lose tonight and also if, as is quite likely, we come unstuck up at Stockport how long before the usual suspects call for Tilson's head. Notice they have been conspicuous by their absence lately.

    Stand up Comedy

    Ok fellow Zoners, I've been asked to do a stand up comedy routine for a New Years Party. They want me to do a routine for about 20 minutes or so and my reward will be that I will be fed and watered all night (which sounds fine by me). However I have doubts whether to do it or not, although I've...

    Interview with an Exile: Part 1 - Aberdeen Shrimper

    The life of an SUFC exile can be a lonely one at times - and one which is a difficult existence to understand for some. I thought by setting up this weekly thread, we would get the opportunity to get to know some of the exiled posters on SZ a bit better. This week, Aberdeen Shrimper goes under...

    Boo-Boys Blight Effective England

    With three wins out of three and a new-found ability to pass the ball about on the ground, the Fabio Capello revolution is gradually gaining momentum. A surprisingly perky Kazakhstan team were eventually swept aside at Wembley, crushed 5-1 with a late flurry of goals. The dark days of the former...

    Interview with a zoner part 5.

    Canvey shrimper is our latest interviewee known to some also as Harry, but back in the 70's when terrace violence was at its height he was known as Malcolm the Teapot, a name that would strike terror into opposition fans. Q. Share with us your experiences of the terrace violence that was so...
