    Would you support this policy?

    Times are slow in the world of mortgage broking at the moment. We did however have a call today from a potential customer who called up on the off chance.

    1) That thing they do when they storm off in a huff claiming never to want to speak to you again and then get all worked up when you don't follow them to apologise. 2) The fact that whilst they admire your belief that Christmas cards and birthday cards are a waste of money, they get all worked...

    The fbm view and ratings - Birmingham

    BATTLING BLUES PUT BRUM OUT TO SEED Southend pulled off one of the results of the season by deservedly claiming all three points on the sponge that is now the St Andrews pitch.

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 6

    “We’ve always said from the start that we’re not long-term football club owners.” In the middle of December 2004, Colin Wagman of Delancey Estates revealed that he had been approached by Ron Martin with the view to sell the company’s 50% stake in Southend United. Delancey had invested heavily in...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 5

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 3

    "There will be no stadium at Fossetts Farm and the future of the football club remains at Roots Hall." A year after being ousted from position of chairman at Southend United, John Main returned to warn fans that a new stadium was merely a pipe-dream. His words, posted on a Southend United...

    Southend United - How far have we come? Part 1

    Cast your mind back almost ten years; could you honestly see us reaching this pivotal moment in the history of Southend United?

    Jamal Campbell-Ryce struck twice as Southend threw the form book out of the window to secure a vital 3-1 victory against in-form West Brom. The winger had failed to score a single goal for the Championship's basement side prior to the visit of promotion-chasing Albion, but he produced two...

    For a few weeks now I've become more and more aggrieved by the criticism of Eastwood from some of the fans on here, at games and in the Evening Echo. It seems that it's been built up to a crescendo that Freddy doesn't try, nor does he want to play for the club anymore and that...
