Memory Lane Those Away Trip Pub Stops
Right, having dissected the match for about 10 minutes in the pub after the game, conversation turned to those great pub stops back in the day. We talked vividly about the trip back from the 2-0 FA Cup win at Bournemouth in 1982, where we pulled up at what turned out to be The Caxton Arms in...- AndyT

Pre-Match Thread Southend United v Leyton Orient
Yeah, it's a bit early as we are still reeling from today's sucker punch, but as conversation on that thread has turned to possible players who might get a start on Tuesday, I thought it could be a good time to get a thread up and running. FWIW, I'd like to see us try 4-4-2, just to see how...- AndyT

Are we the biggest underachievers in world Football.
With the play-offs now gone (almost) and lots of unrealistic posts on which players or managers we should looking to sign. I was reminded of a conversation I had with a fellow shrimper last week. I'm not a stats man but roughly we have been around for 110 years and spent all but 7 seasons in...- rigsby

Being 65 is cool!
I was sent this today by another oldie mate from the Colonies. I thought it worth sharing. I am over 65 and the Armed Forces thinks I'm too old to track down terrorists. You can't be older than 42 to join the military. They've got the whole thing ***-backwards. Instead of sending 18-year olds...- RHB

Privilege - and what it really means
Have been having a bit of a row on FB with one of hubby's ex colleagues who used to be a good laugh but has become pretty much of a political activist, pre-election for the Greens, but subsequently for Labour, and in particular for Corbyn, plus organising rallies for "#Black lives matter".

Went out for a meal with my beautiful lady yesterday afternoon - on cloud 10,000. As we paid the bill, the young waitress made conversation - for a tip no doubt. The weather? world news? Holidays?

Safe standing at Fossetts a no go?
