    Gillingham (F.A. Cup & Friday) BE THERE!

    So, Saturday 7th November we face Gillingham at Priestfield. With our current plight I suggest that we take as many fans as possible to the game. The Away end, as crap as it is (If it's raining!) holds 1,500 on your average league game. But, as it's the cup I'm sure we could take the whole end...

    AGM Notes of Q&A Session

    This is all rather rough, OBL's will probably be better, but i left her to get sloshed with the shareholder bubbly. RM - Ron Martin ST - Steve Tilson BJ - Bill Jennings GK - Geoffrey King RM asked firstly why 1 person had voted against the accounts. RM said he thought this rather bizarre...

    Chairman's Blog 12th May

    Chairman's Blog I believe I have now answered all those questions – either singularly or combined – that have been sent to the Club’s media department. There were one or two “stragglers” but these points were covered in earlier responses. I have yet to come to a...

    Airline applies 'Fat Tax'

    http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/2009/04/16/airline-makes-obese-pay-double-fare-91466-23403882/ Something i agree with. As i believe i have said on here before, why should 2kilo's of luggage be any different from 2 kilo's of Fat? It all costs the same in fuel!

  7. 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...

    Design A Pub

    OK, so, money's no object, and land and space are complete non-issues. What's the best possible pub you could ever come up with? Mine? Fossett's Bar will be located just down the road from Fossett's Farm, Southend on Sea, Essex. The bar will be tended by the guy who bartends at The Spread...

  10. away goals rule

    anyone know as if the away goal rule applies in the playoffs, if so i believe we have a very good chance as it has not been very often that we have not scored in a game, which means unless it is another 0 -0 draw then donny will need to beat us, a score draw would be fine for us to go through to...

    Fergie Should Have Stayed Quiet

    You would think that Sir Alex Ferguson would know better, wouldn’t you? The last time he announced retirement plans, before the start of the 2001/02 season, Manchester United completely lost their focus and slumped like a Tottenham player at closing time. Between October and December of that...

    The boss is out....do you

    So the boss is out, which of the above applies the most to you. Apologies for those who are their own boss as I know you guys like clicking stuff too. Make it hypothetical if you want. Apologies to students too....actually scrap that, you spend all day boozing, shagging and doing drugs.

    Question on Penalties

    Presumably had the shoot out continued their 11th would have been taken by their first choice taker as they only had 10 players on the field at the end. The same applies, I think, if there has been a sending off. This seems to be wrong, surely the team should forfeit a kick. Therefore would it...

  17. Tilson might know what he is doing...

    "Mechanistic" v "Psychological" I have read the threads debating both Tilson's wisdom over signings, and the perceived demise of Shrimperzone with interest. Here is a thought. Tilson, Brush and Martin know exactly what they are doing, and are working to a plan which balances success on...

  20. Take on last night...

    I was really, really confident that Barnsley was a place that we could get a result and turn our season around (it certainly should have been).  How wrong I was.  I feel most sorry for the fans who made the journey.  People like me who skived off of my last lesson at school, got out of work in...
