    The Shrimpers Curse!

    Just read this story on the BBC website http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-37378935 and got me thinking, we've been trying to get a new stadium for so many years now (20yrs? 30yrs?), and in recent years, everytime we seem to get momentum, something happens to make us start from scratch again -...

    Juncker proposes EU military headquarters

    I've never made any secret of my wish for the UK to remain in the EU, but reading this does make me think we might be better off out of it. What's the point of NATO if something like this happens. A move towards a united European State may be a step nearer...

    The Great British Bake-Off

    Great British Bake Off: BBC loses rights to Channel 4 - So says the web headline. Love it or loath it the program is a fabulous viewing success for the BBC. Will it work as well on CH4? I don't know.

    Joe Hart to have Torino medical before loan move

    So, discarded by Man City and a less than successful Euro 2016 campaign can sometimes be costly it seems. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37216083 I'm sure Torino are a good side, they sit 7th currently in Serie A, but maybe he could have done better? I'm very surprised that another Prem...

  8. Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset

    On BBC Essex this afternoon!

    Continuing to have new experiences with the book, this afternoon I had my first ever radio interview, promoting Roots To The 92. It was on the Tony Fisher show on BBC Essex with Steve Scruton standing in for Tony. The link is below, the interview starts just after 2 hours 9 minutes in and lasts...

    154mph!!

    Some complete ****ing tosser was clocked doing 154mph on the A11 and as a "punishment" he received a 56 day ban! Should be 2 or 3 years IMO. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-suffolk-36963826

    Lloyds cuts a further 3,000 jobs and doubles branch closure plan

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-36911896 Anyone caught up in the fall-out of this or Lloyds earlier closures? There appear to be a variety of reasons for these latest cuts so it would be unfair to lay it at the door of one thing, but I do wonder what those customers that don't use on-line...

    FA Cup 4th Substitute

    The FA Cup are going to allow a fourth substitute from the quarter finals onwards: BBC Apparently that will add "intrigue and interest". Give it a rest. It'll allow teams to change one extra player should they need to, which I don't have a problem with. But add "intrigue and interest"? What...

    Steve Bruce: Hull City manager leaves newly promoted club

    Loan Clauses

    Just seen this on the BBC website... Is it likely that players we get on loan could have the same type of clause? So we'd have to play them regardless of how good they were?

    I've never heard such disrespect for the club. You want either the Sunderland job or to be in the England set up, so disrespectful. 2 years ago Lincoln City didn't want you !
