    14 Months For Stoned Trucker Killer - Who's To Blame?

    The place where I work are running this story on their news page: A lorry driver who killed a young woman on the A13 in Basildon, while under the influence of drugs has been jailed for 14 months. The parents of Louise Cooper say they are outraged at the sentence given to trucker...
  2. Green Street Erupts, And Not a Hobbit In Sight

    Scenes that would make your casual hobbit masquerading as a hooligan squeal were on show tonight, as West Ham entertained Millwall in more ways than one. It was the draw that made half of East London wince and the other half salivate, the draw that made the Metropolitan Police kicked into...

    Anyone had their shirt for this season printed on?

    If so, does the letters on the back look a little bobbled? I think it might be the material on the back that's caused it, but then it could be the printing on the shirt, it's already been back once with an issue, just curious if it is the material or if something has happened while they were...
  4. Women's Boxing

    It's been confirmed today that women's boxing will be included in the 2012 Olympics. This topic has caused mixed responses in the boxing world. Frank Warren has stated he thinks it is wrong because he doesn't like the idea of watching women possibly getting KO'd So how does it make you feel...
  5. Newcastle Suffer the Greatest Loss

    Newcastle United have no manager, an owner that doesn't want them, a vastly inflated wage bill and a squad on the verge of mutiny, yet that was all put into perspective this morning with the news that Sir Bobby Robson passed away. He was 76. A true icon of the game, his playing success was...

    Tevez - The Big Girl

    Heroes can be hard to find in modern football. It's difficult to feel any connection to a teenage millionaire when he signs a contract large enough to fund a hospital wing before he's even scored his 20th Premier League goal. It's impossible to respect a man who passionately expresses his desire...
  7. Bare Bums in Brighton

    Went to an Art Deco Collectors Fair in Hove this morning and went into Brighton later and had a bit of traffic trouble caused by the bare and the not-quite bare. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/sussex/8099693.stm

    It's His Own Fault

    I love Carlos Tevez. If you're anything like me, still immature enough to allow your mind to wander with fantasises of being a professional footballer, you'll know why. Tevez plays in exactly the same way that we would, were we ever given the chance. He is whole-hearted, brave and dedicated. He...

  13. Message for geoffrey king from the east stand!!

    Where it's dissapointing to hear you think a small group of Southend fans caused trouble in the West - can I hold you personally responsible for the potential explosive situation in East (black seats) section. Yes, as this is where the club were happy to sell 2/3 boxes to LECIESTER fans who...

    Slaters/Moaners: Tell them to shut it or let them get on with it?

    This season, the guy sitting behind us has not had a single word of praise for the team, and for 90 minutes every match does not stop shouting about how poor Francis is, how he wants Tilly out etc. So today I decided to pipe up and tell him that he's wrong, which has caused an argument between...

    A Recovery Nightmare

    It all started normally. Flat battery in South Woodham Ferrers, clutch gone on an VW Camper in Westcliff another flat battery at Southend Hospital. All run of the mill stuff. Then I got a call for an Ford Scorpio in Pitsea with a wheel bearing gone and needing recovery to Great Yarmouth. That'll...

    Striker Crisis For Capello

    England 4-0 Slovakia Heskey, 7 Rooney, 70, 90+2 Lampard, 82 Forget about the result. A 4-0 victory over a substandard Slovakia might look nice on the scoreboard, but it has no place in the bigger picture. Fabio Capello will be far more concerned by a dramatic injury crisis in his frontline...

    The Apprentice - week 1

    Whoever the 16th person was who "bottled it" before the tv stage, he enjoyed more air time than the majority of those on the men's team - Howard excepted. Tonight was all about the meltdown in the girls' team. Stepping up to the plate in week 1, Mona (surely the a and n are the wrong way round?)...

    Coldplay in the Bushfire concert

    I find myself in a bit of a quandry here. I've been a bit anti-Coldplay in the past and I'm actually very cynical when it comes to charity concerts by big name acts, always wondering if it's because of the charity or their own careers. However here is a YouTube clip of Coldplay playing Fix You...

    United Crushed By Rampant Reds

    Manchester United 1-4 Liverpool (Ronaldo 23) (Torres 28) (Gerrard 44, pen) (Aurelio 77th) (Dossena, 90+1) Old Trafford has never emptied so quickly. Even before Manchester United were put out of their misery by referee Alan Wiley, there were more empty seats than supporters. Those...
