  2. ESB's Champions League Run Down

    It's that time of year again. The time when the Giants of European football clamour together for one big orgy of tactical football and self-congratulation. yes, it's the Champions League group stages, and here is my run down of the groups and who to look out for. Group A On the face of it...

    Question Thoughts on Kevin Betsy?

    Whilst the priority is defence at the moment as we are seriously short of bodies I think most people will agree we also need a/a couple of winger(s). The G-Man was never replaced and I whilst Tommy Black was succesfully replaced with a waste of space I still feel were light on wingers...

    Nerves Jangle As Race Intensifies

    And that is why you can't write novels about football. It doesn't matter how expertly you construct your prose, nor how gripping your final chapter, the human mind is simply incapable of making the implausible plausible on as regular a basis as reality. Who would dare to write a story about a...

    Brave Arsenal Squeeze Through

    Roma 1-0 Arsenal (6-7 on pens) (Juan, 9) We've always known that Arsenal's kids are talented. Now we know that they're brave as well. After an energy-sapping 120 minutes in the Stadio Olimpico, 111 of them played without their single goal safety net, they picked themselves up off the floor and...

    Hiddink's Hairdryer

    Juventus 2-2 Chelsea (2-3 agg) (Iaquinta 19) (Essien 45+1) (Del Piero 74) (Drogba 83) Guus Hiddink was hired to bring some tactical sophistication to an underwhelming team, but according to Ray Wilkins, it was an old-fashioned half-time hairdryer that carried Chelsea to the last eight of the...
  8. Breaking News Ron's blog 03/03/09

    I feel there are more issues I would like to share with supporters in relation to football matters, which includes acknowledging the very capable backroom staff who get little credit for maintaining a well oiled operation. That topic will be on another agenda as many fans’ only point of contact...

    The Fall of Roman's Empire?

    The rumours that Roman Abramovich is attempting to sell Chelsea may have been quickly denied by the club, but when you stack up the numbers, it's all too plausible. Stamford Bridge has been a black hole for the Russian oligarch's cash and, in a year when he's lost so much money elsewhere, it...

    If you could fix the result of just one game this season...

    which game would you want to guarantee the Shrimpers a victory in. For me personally Brighton away is the one that I really really want to win. I really dislike them due to a few idiot fans of theres I have met over the years and also the fact the bulk of my mates support them when it suits...

    Question Is is acceptable to bring a Dog into a banking hall.

    I am currently studying for my IFA exams. This basically means being stuck in a office of a high street bank for seven hours at a time. Having not worked in retail banking for about 8 years I am amazed by how standards of customers have slipped. Being in a sleepy sussex town I imagined it...

    There are no flags on cars and no posters in windows.

    There are no flags on cars and no posters in windows. No sweeping advertising campaigns and no collectable badges. Here in the UK, you wouldn't guess that we're just hours away from the start of a major football tournament. Ok, so the nearest that the England team can get to European involvement...

    Embarassing Bodies

    Watched this on Channel 4 last night, and whilst the bulk of it was about dermatological issues (psoriasis, acne etc.) two elements of the programme were particularly disturbing. The people in question in these two parts of the programme are embarassed (as the programme says) about parts of...

    Views on players at Chelmsford

    After reading some mixed views on last nights performance's here is my take on the players on show last night and whether they will make the first eleven this season. Keeper- bit unlucky to conceaded 3 as pulled of 4 very good saves, would like to see him again. Hunt - i get frustrated with...

    Thoughts on players today

    Flahavan - same old really , 3 brill saves but was still rooted to his line to much Hunt- very average Clarke - done ok but Bellamy's pace and movement caused him a lot of trouble and also felt he got caught on his heals for the 1st goal. Barrett- some great touches and brought the ball out...

    One to Start the Weekend (week 9)

    As Dave's on holiday I've been made caretaker manager of his "One to Start the Weekend" slot. First thing I thought when browsing YouTube for some classic tunage was "how on earth does he pick just one song each week?", so as the cat's away I'm going to spoil you with "Three to Start the...

    More potential targets?

    Released players today who could maybe do us a job in L1? Marc Richards has been shown the door by Barnsley as have Jamie Victory & (MtS fave) Mickey Bell by Cheltenham. I'm not saying they would all be 1st team regulars but would help bulk up the squad in key areas!

    Those going to Ipswich - I beg you.

    Last few away games the atmosphre has been superb. I really think we can be the 12th man....Especially as we are away and the bulk of us are probably people that want to get behind the lads. Lets be loud and proud Saturday. At Sheff Wed I beleive even Ldn Fatso sang once and he has the worst...

    Michael Kightly

    I pulled up at Tesco's Pitsea for some fuel and none other than Michael Kightly parked beside me to get some fuel as well. He said hello to me because he must have noticed my SUFC car sticker. I then had a chat with him while we both filled our cars up. I asked him if he had another club...
