    Is this Tilson's most important Transfer Window

    I have been thinking, and although play-offs is unrealistic this season, most of us fans would be expecting an improvement in the 2nd half of the season with maybe a top 10 finish. However, I think that one eye should be on building a squad to seriously challenge next season, and I am talking...

    Tonight

    Quite possibly the worst game of football I have had the misfortune to watch in a long time. No commitment, no passion on the pitch, a complete lack of a competent midfielder or defender on the park and even less from the bench. We need an awful lot of players to come in in january although it...

    Tilson!

    As I said in my BBC Essex text which I'm not sure if it was read out, no one can blame Tilson for bad performances/ bad results with the muppets he has to work with. He has very limited budget and has done his best but the players he has managed to attract just aren't good enough.

    Letter To Ashley

    After trawling through Mike Ashley's emotional 1664 word press release, Slipperduke has a few questions for him.... "I paid £134 million out of my own pocket for the club. I then poured another £110 million into the club not to pay off the debt but just to reduce it. The club is still in...

    Bye Bye Thaksin

    Everyone expects a rush of transfer activity on deadline day, but even the most seasoned of observers would have been surprised to see an entire football club change hands yesterday. Only Manchester City could provide such drama, but the joy felt by its supporters today is tinged with sadness...

  7. Breaking News Revelling in it

    Revelling In It It’s strange, scoring goals can be both the easiest and hardest things in football, ask anyone, be it Alan Shearer or my mate Dave from the Dog and Duck FC! In theory, all you are doing is passing the ball in to a 24ft space but sometimes it feels like you are threading it...

    Steve McClaren

    I think it's time that I made my peace with Steve McClaren. On Sunday night, sat in The Balcony off Orchard Road, I was asked what I thought of him and it was a full ten minutes of swearing, gesticulating and a little bit of frothing at the mouth before I realised that everyone around me was...

    Interview with a zoner part 5.

    The most recent interview is with MK SHRIMPER, often on the zone as a political thinker, notorious as a bad dancer but more importantly is very close to being chairman of our national railways. Q1 - In your capacity as a potential head honcho for for the railways what message can you send to...
