  3. Question Embargoes and registrations

    I haven't a clue what is going on at our club. Does anyone actually know for a fact or fully understand the position we're in with signings? It's stated as fact on here (a fact I'm definitely not disputing, btw) that we're under various embargoes and yet we're signing players and the manager is...

  5. Congratulations Shrimpers from a Rotherham fan

    We're a shambles of a team ATM but take nothing away from Southend, who thrashed us at home for the second season running. Also well done to the 472 Shrimpers fans there today. Great effort for such a long trip, especially with the motorway delays. Cressy got a great reception from us Millers...

    So what exactly is PS's plan here. We have at least 3 players on board who like the ball to their feet during play, Eastwood, Benyon and Harris, Last season we tried the hoof route to the likes of Dicko etc and to some part it worked.Why sign players who prefer it on the deck if you want to play...

    Riots verdict-"People need a stake in society"

    http://gu.com/p/36fea At the risk of stating the obvious, it seems to me that the headline of this article is entirely right. "People do need a stake in society." If not, then riots on the scale we saw last summer, will simply re-occur.Over to you. (Btw,I did look for an article on this...
