    Any state pension specialists?

    I don't understand. According to one part of gov't website I only need 30 years fully paid NI to qualify for full basic state pension. Then elsewhere I check my NI contributions and I'm paid up 30 years in full but it also tells me I have made no contributions in the last 4 tax years and need to...

  2. Footballer's names as a question

    I saw this on reddit and nicked the idea before I read any more of the contributions. Very simple. There are some footballers whose name can end a sentence and make a question. For example: Is Wes Brown? Can Peter Crouch? continue!!!!

  4. Old reader but new poster!

    Biggest load of drivel I've ever heard

    Not sure how they got my details, but some loons have sent me an email suggesting I sign a petition to protest about there being no women (other than HM The Queen) on British bank notes. Whoever wrote this needs to get out more. "Mervyn King, the Governor of the Bank of England, has announced...

    Loans

    The premier league have to submit finite 25 player squads to the FA shortly which , as I understand , cannot be altered until the January transfer window opens. Does this mean that there will be a number of players on Prem teams books who will not be allowed to play competitively ? and is this...

    Administration essential and Sainsbury's

    Administration essential even if Blues find money. Southend United should be placed into administration, even if they clear their current tax debt of 238k, the taxman has said. Catherine Addy, representing HM Revenue and Customs, described the club as "demonstrably insolvent", a persistent...

    Big thanks to the Col U lads

  19. Zone Update All At Sea - next edition

    Hi all, Further to Jai's post yesterday re the five year anniversary edition I'm afraid we have decided to put back publication until the Leyton Orient game on Sept 4. This gives you more time to send in any contributions for the fanzine, to the usual e mail add: allatseafanzine@hotmail.com...

  20. Five year anniversary

    All At Sea celebrates five years when it comes out next on August 21 against Millwall. I believe this makes us one of, if not the longest serving fanzine in the club's history - although I could be wrong (I know Roots Hall Roar ran for exactly five years). We're hoping that contributors past...
