    Marcus Trescothick

    Sad to hear of Marcus Trescothick's retirement from Test cricket, especially when without a doubt he still has the ability to play at that level, however his much documented problems with stress have finally made him call time on international cricket. I feel that Trescothick was without a...
  2. A Bit Of Fun ..........*Why?*

    Why is it that people say they "slept like a baby" when babies wake up every two hours? If a deaf person has to go to court, is it still called a hearing? Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat? Why do banks charge a fee on "insufficient funds" when...
  3. Goodbye Senior side hello u21's

    Maybe it is just my age or maybe it is the excitement of seeing a fast paced game played with youthful abandonment but i am finding myself increasingly drawn to showing more interest in watching them than the senior side. There will be pretty much a full house at Wembley to see exactly the...

    Red Bush Tea

    Has anyone tried this yet? Tried some today, thought it smelt wierd but tasted pretty good. It's also supposed to be good for you too: Additional Benefits Japanese scientific research has shown intriguing beneficial effects in constipation, liver function, blood sugar levels, skin diseases...

    It's Metal Monday Pt.9

    As i've not done Metal Monday for a few weeks, i thought I'd come back with a stonkingly heavy track. After their debut album in 1994 and their follow up, Machine Head had a bit of a 'lean' spell where they couldn't get anywhere near the level of heaviness of their first two albums. For me...

    The Forth Plinth....

    I've just seen the prospective sculptures that have been submitted to go on display on the forth plinth in Trafalgar Square and I have never seen such a waste of public money as these. £400,000 of public money to have whichever one is chosen to be made to fit the plinth. 1. A group of six...

    Defeat in pub TV football appeal

    1-0 to the money men IMHO, I notice a lot of pubs round here have started exploring this loophole. They will probably have to get rid their Arab systems as a result of this hearing. Taken from Aunty Beeb: A publican has suffered a setback in her High Court battle to use a foreign broadcaster -...

    I blame Leon

    Everyone's carrying on about Matty Harrold and caning him for not scoring whilst forgetting the real reason behind our present fall down the table. Wasn't it that Sheff Wed loan lad that got himself disgracefully sent off against a team that would and did destroy us if we had to go down to 10...

  11. Cheltenham Raings - My view

    Collis - 6 - Not sure whether or not at fault for the 1st as you could blame almost half the team for falling asleep. Not his usual commanding self and a few more games like this and Darryl might be back. Not just yet though. Hunt - 5 - Player of the month?? Do me a favour Tilly and bring...

  13. DTS

    I personally am delighted with the new signing.

    Sick of reading all this what a load of crap signing posts. I think a crap signing is a bloke who is 27 years old and has 15 career league goals to his name. Eric was 2nd best player in the youth championship last season, scored more goals than he played games and has pace to burn. I am...

    Leon Cort

    Cultured centre half Leon Cort has Joined Hull City on a free transfer. He is hoping to impress Tigers manager Peter Taylor with his impressive range of passing and intelligent use of the ball.

    A New Dawn

    I wake early. The early morning mist of a Summer’s day is readily burnt by the glowing yellow sun rising over south Suffolk’s gently rolling fields. Next doors much despised cockerel, 300 yards away and out of rifle range, announces the event with gusto. I amble downstairs and let out Shrimper...

    Most dislked Blues player ever.

    I think as a rule I have always pretty much liked 99% of the players that we have had in my 20 years watching Southend. However from time to time you just happen to get someone that rubs you up the wrong way. My main gripe is players that just seen to be playing for the money rather than the...

  19. Complaints to City Council

    Complaints to City Council. 1. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it. 2. He's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it anymore. 3. It's the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow. 4. I want some repairs done to...

    Alan Ball tribute

    As has already been suggested in another thread, our final game of the season will be an opportunity for Southampton Football Club to show their respects to Alan Ball. Their plans have been revealed, the following article having appeared in today's Southern Daily Echo: SAINTS FANS TO APPLAUD...
