    Apprentice week 9

    Don't know how many were watching what with some football match going on in Russia, thought this was going to be a pretty naff task this week, but what a shock at the end. Teams were shaken up again, pitching Alex as SAS's choice of PM with Lee and Lucinda in Alpha against PM Raef (again...

    Manchester United

    I don't know if it's the same in Singapore, but here in England there is a strange glint of expectation in the eyes of the Manchester United fans. Every one that I have spoken to is confident, perhaps too confident, of victory in Moscow tonight. It might be that clinching the EPL title has given...

    Portsmouth v Cardiff

    After a wait of 69 years, Portsmouth finally lifted the FA Cup again after a tight, but composed performance against a spirited Cardiff City side. In the year of great FA Cup shocks, there was nothing left for the Final which went very much according to the form-book. Portsmouth, like a prize...

    Hull City

    Hull City, a gritty northern side who were in the bottom division of English football just four years ago, are now 90 minutes away from the bright lights of the Premier League. Manager Phil Brown only took over in January 2007 when the Humberside team were paddling in the relegation zone, but...

  6. Just got back

    To my girlfriend's house in Liverpool. First brief impressions: crap game, unimaginative attempts at playing football with intermittent quick forays forward with no real end result (from both sides). The major news has to be Bailey's headbutt on Macca. Exactly what happened and what blows...

    Thierry Henry

    In what sounds ever so slightly like an SOS call, Thierry Henry has told the BBC that the only club in England he would ever consider returning to would be Arsenal. Henry had been linked with a move to Newcastle, but like any sane human being, he moved as quickly as he does in the penalty area...

    Chelsea v Wigan

    Steve Bruce grinned like a naughty schoolboy as he sat down in front of the assembled press and he clasped a hand to his chest. "My phone's buzzing away, gentlemen. I wouldn't mind, but he's only texted me four times in the last four months. Twice on the day of the Arsenal game, twice today!"...

  9. Ticket Office Phones Down

    Southend United's Ticket Office is currently experiencing problems with their telephone system. The issue is only affecting the Box Office (08444 77 00 77) and not the Main Club numbers. Fans phoning the Box Office will not be able to get through and are advised to visit the Ticket Office in...

    Stewards in the West Stand

    I think i have already seen something like this in a previous thread. So i apologise if it has already been said, but i need to get this off my chest. What on earth were they doing today. I got asked at the beginning of the game for my ticket. I had just got through the turnstiles and was...

    Huddersfield Fans view on the game....

    Basically, it pains me to say it but it's true. Huddersfield Town Football Club are an absolute ****ing joke. From top to bottom, the awards we won the other week are just papering over the cracks. First of all, regarding the match - we weren't very good. Southend deserved to win, they played...

    Poor old Spurs

    Juande Ramos' tilt at a third successive UEFA Cup ended in heartbreak at The Philips Stadium when Pascal Chimbonda dragged his spot-kick wide of the goal and sent PSV Eindhoven through by the narrowest of margins. Despite 210 minutes of football, these weary gladiators had to be separated by a...

    Time for all of us to let off some steam! What is it about other drivers that annoys you? I'll start. The obvious is middle lane drivers, so i'll ignore that. Two things that really annoy me are:- 1. People that don't thank me when I make way for them. How difficult is it to raise your hand...

    McCormack Incident

    Folks, Just to let you know, I've had to delete the McCormack thread. Apologies if there was an interesting discussion going on in that thread; however, to make it clear, it was based on a fundamental untruth. Alan McCormack was not knocked out in training today. Alan has spoken to one of...

  20. Today's game

    The fixture I was looking forward to all season - 45 minutes up the road for a Southend supporting Devonian. This was a game that after we soaked up 10 minutes of pressure we never looked like taking anything other than three points. Yeovil were very poor and we played well - never breaking...
