    Is this another project that ron is involved in????

    Away last weekend, just south of Pau. Went over the border through the Somport Tunnel to see this incredible structure of an International station at Canfranc Estacion. It was lauded as a great trans-Pyrénéean project to link Pau in France and Saragossa in Spain and took 24 years to build. There...

    The A13 from Tarpots to Kiln Road

    Blimey, I'm on a roll with rants atm! Anyone been up or down Bread and Cheese in the last few days? What a joke! There's bits of bus lanes being put in on different sides of the road, so there's a bus lane going west, down the hill but at the lights there's a bus lane on the Southend bound side...

    Will we go up next season?

    Obviously the squad is going to have a clear out in the summer and some new players are going to be brought in. I honestly think if we get rid of the dead wood stick with the basis of the season, we will storm it. Bring on League 1! :happy:

    Just letting you all know - Saturdays kick off brought forward to 1pm
  8. Paul Sturrock : Will he walk ?

    IMHO Sturrocks has pulled off a massive miracle to get us anywhere a play off position. Back in August he had no squad, no money and was having to cancel friendlies. Sure some of the players he has brought in since have proved to be disappointing but others we must be desperate to get sign...

    Interesting Idea From Across the Pond

    Watching the Super Bowl on the Beeb, they brought up a personal conduct policy that the NFL runs for occassions where player conduct may impair the NFL's public image. I wonder if FIFA/the FA/UEFA/Someone could put something similar together for footie? Might stop so many players from making...

    Luke Prosser

    Limped off injured today for Rushden after someone was sent off for a high tackle on him. Will apparently be a couple of days until it's known whether he'll be OK or not. FWIW Rushden are unbeaten in their last 3, with Prosser scoring a late equaliser the other week. The other thing of note...

    Worst ever individual displays

    With far too much positivity on the board following the signing of Lee Sawyer, I thought it about time I lowered the mood with a depressing thread, so inspired by mention of Che Wilson's LDV final appearance I want the definitive XI of worst ever performances. They don't have to be bad players...

    Blame the Manager?

    Just read this article - http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/9346616.stm - and with all the speculation about the jobs of Grant, Hodgson and Ancelotti and the number of managers who have been sacked in the last couple of weeks, it's got me thinking. Why is always the managers who get the...

    Question 2011- the most exciting year in the history of SUFC ?

    Surely the position on the stadium has to become clear in 2011 with the PP running out in the summer. By the end of this current weekend we could be only a few points off the play-offs with a game in hand. Gillingham have shown how quickly it is possible to climb the table having brought in...
