    Joey Barton

    There is little in this world as infuriating as the sight of a young man, guilty of vicious assault, walking away from a courtroom with just a suspended sentence. There is anger at the clemency, fury at the perception that justice has failed. In the case of Joey Barton, however, there is just an...

    30+ skills every man should master

    Feature on MSN this morning suggested 30 skills every man should have in their pocket, including things like being able to make a mix tape, keep a ball off the ground, carve meat, protect a computer, tip waiters, play golf, feign confidence, know Shakespeare, blah, blah... Quite frankly, I...

    Workers Compensation

    I so hope this is true!! This is a bricklayer's accident report, which was printed in the newsletter of the Australian equivalent of the Workers' Compensation Board... Dear Sir, I am writing in response to your request for additional information in Block 3 of the accident report form. I...

    Have you ever seen a celeb taking a pony.

    Was out with the lads in Brighton a few weeks ago in a bar called the Biscuit Factory. The Bloke from the Pram shop loved it in there as do my mates but I have always found it a bit poncy. Anyway four of us chewing the fact when my mate (mentioned in past stories) "the Pilot" spotted Colin from...

    Jury Service advice

    Some advice needed from my fellow Zoners... I was out with my old man last night, and he tells me he's been called up for jury service. He's a bit concerned because he works as a contractor, and he's pretty certain the service is going to cost him a lot of money. I know nothing about jury...

    Friday Funny!

    A Welshman was washed up on a beach after a terrible shipwreck. Only a sheep and a sheepdog were washed up with him. Looking around, he realised that they were stranded on a deserted island. After being there a while, he got into the habit of taking his two animal companions to the beach every...

    Transfers/ Loan Signings

    Everyone seems to be going on about possible transfer targets. Would it be just my opinion in thinking that Tilly has made great progress in attracting loan signings, with January being his best ever effort. Will this source of new players be continued in July? Will this provide an area...

    Leeds United

    The dream that they lived under Peter Ridsdale has long since faded into a memory but, for the supporters of Leeds United, it's taking a lot longer to wake up from the nightmare that followed. Defeat at Wembley to a spirited and creative Doncaster Rovers means that it's another season in the...

    Busted & An Apology

    Today saw the demise of Hector of the House. After a fun filled month he finally got caught and had his account banned and deleted. I am sure that most of you had sussed out who he was but I feel I owe an apology to the mods and owners of the board. Hector was set up originally for a wind-up...

    David James

    It is a testament to David James' resilience that he has worked so hard to overcome his injury in time for today's FA Cup Final, but the lure of the big game is only part of his motivation. James, for all of his heroics this season, is more aware than most that when it comes to the FA Cup Final...
  11. The ESB Report (Sorry FBM)

    Had to write an 800 word report on the game last night for an assesment, and here it is: DONCASTER held Southend to a goal-less draw at Roots Hall to take a slight advantage in the League One play-off semi final. Rovers, who finished three places and four points ahead of their Essex...

    The Zone a Year on.... Many things have changed this past season, SBH replaced Spiff on the board for one and is adding to the changes to the board day by day ....WE as the owners would like to think we have taken the Zone forward this past twelve months....We have new plans in store for next...

    Season Card deadline extended

    Dear Blues supporter, I am writing to inform you that due to overwhelming demand on the final day of purchasing, a decision has been made to extend the Season Card deadline by one week. Supporters who are yet to renew their Season Card, or those who wish to purchase a new one, can do so at...
  15. 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...

    Michael Ballack and Andreiy Shevchenko

    After a distinctly underwhelming first season in English football, Michael Ballack and Andreiy Shevchenko were derided as hugely expensive flops, but yesterday, they gave Chelsea a real chance of winning their third title in four years. If they do, it will be the most extraordinary and...

    Your promotion stories...

    Just wondered if anyone had any stories that go with our promotions... What you did before, after etc. After the disapointment of the Grimsby game, which I went to and had the worst constapation (sp). I went to both of the Northampton games and then...the final... For the play-off...

    Celtic v Rangers

    I'm told by my Scottish friends that when it comes to excitement, you'll have to go a long way to beat an Old Firm derby between Glasgow Rangers and Glasgow Celtic. I've always been a little dubious of that claim. After all, I've been to Tottenham against Arsenal. Could it really be anymore...

    Turkey striker, Nihat.

    While England’s footballers sulk in their sun-loungers, the rest of the continent will be contesting the 2008 European Championships. Iain Macintosh, who still won’t allow the word ‘McClaren’ to be uttered in his home, runs the rule over some of the potential stars of the summer. This week, it’s...

    Semi-match report

    I thought I may as well put my thoughts on the game up as I've barely been on since the game. As I mentioned before this match, the form of the home team compared with that of the away team and the relative league standings pointed only one way: Away win. Sure enough, the form book wasn't...
