  1. Masters Football

    Watched the Northern Masters yesterday with Newcastle, Middlesborough, Sunderland and Hartlepool. Newcastle had a fairly good squad with Peter Beardsley as their star player and beat 'Boro on penalties in the final. Despite Windass, everyone else i thought was much of a muchness... Though...

    Tour de France

    I know I'd said I'd leave the TdF thread until today but blimey it's all going on.  As these articles say recent events probably dwarf the Festina affair of 1998.  Which for a sport I love is a bit sad, Chris Boardman just about sums it all up in his article but read whatr he has to say before...

    Gombeys to fly up for Goater’s big farewell

    Latest news from the Shrimperzone official paper of choice, The Royal Gazette. A Gombey troupe is flying to England early next month to help celebrate the final game of soccer player Shaun Goater’s illustrious career. Mr. Goater, who is hanging up his boots after a 17-year stint as a...

    Over the Years

    Not sure if I can explain this well but over the years what do you think positionally has been the Blues strong point. IE - I think the one thing we have always had is good strikers from the likes of Crown,Angell,Cadette, Collymore so despite how bad the team is I think our strongest position...

    Goater is our new Ian Benjamin.....

    Some of you hate him, a lot of you love him. But everytime I see Goater laying the ball unselfishly off for another, better placed player or getting moaned at off for not running it just takes me back to those heady days of the 90's when we had the mighty Ian Benjamin in our midst. IMO...

    Your Favourite Player

    As everyone else is starting topics through sheer boredom, I thought I would. As the title suggests, name your all time favourite player. BUT I want you guys to be honest - it would be easy to say Sir Stanley but I want the player that made an immediate impact on you, the player who made you...
  7. Nicked at football.

    I know the PC brigade on this board are going to be moaning about this one but i was wondering, with the over zealous police looking to gain brownie points with the chief inspector, has anyone been arrested at football and what for? I was pinched in 99 against Doncaster in the cup outside the...

    And now the end is near

    All, You may have noticed I haven't been round much these last few weeks. The truth is, now I've moved to Kent and virtually settled down (eek), I don't get involved in all the other SUFC stuff now - I've quit the Trust committee (although their aims are the same as mine) and...

    Players with unique First names

    George Reynolds

    Taken from the BBC: The ex-chairman of Darlington Football Club has been warned he is facing jail after admitting cheating the Inland Revenue out of £650,0000. George Reynolds, 68, and his cousin Richard Tennick, 58, admitted carrying out the tax scam between 1998 and 2004. Newcastle Crown...
  11. The Emperor's new clothes

    Slight twist on DtS's excellent thread, as suggested by Firestorm. His nominations were Shane Westley and John Keeley. My nominations would be: Flahavan - I see a midget shotstopper who is dodgy at crosses; everyone else sees the best keeper in the division. (although at the moment...
  12. My view of today

    well, sat in my front room at about 11.15 this morning, I was just writing a post asking ' am I the only person who is not going to todays game' as I am well skint at the mo, (since Brian left Westlife, I havent had any double work) then my good friend 'Sebastion Weetabix' phoned...
  13. Half Life 2

    Just wondered if any zone type people are playing HL2. I got it yesterday and it is one awsome game. CS source also kicks ar$e. I play online as The Fitter also. Move over Call of Duty as CS regains the multiplayer crown.
  14. ShrimperZone Hall of Fame

    And so we move back into defence to find our next three entrants into the ShrimperZone Hall-of-Fame. Plenty of names to mull over. So, out of the ten listed above, who do YOU think should be enrolled into our ShrimperZone Hall-of-Fame this year? PREVIOUS POLLS 1 : Custodians Paul Sansome...

    MTB Day

    I can reveal that the ex-Blues will be managed/selected by Dave Crown, and that Dave Martin will be playing. Expect players of that ilk...
  16. How Do You Explain THIS To Your Other Half?

    Taken from the Aberdeen Evening Express: "Red-faced revellers were left out in the cold after someone pinched their clothes. The boozy man and woman had sneaked into a grassy area after a night out in Aberdeen The pair took off their clothes and left them in a pile. But a thief swiped...

    Bit of perspective

    Dont get me wrong - Sad that Leon went and yes i think without his goals last season we would have struggled but at the end of the day he is a good player but not irreplacable. Same with Maher who I feel will go and will be a bigger loss. However we had Dudfield who for me is a more natural...

    The L.U.F.C Life Plan

    Are you worried about the future? Let's face it, we're not getting any younger and we all have to think about our lavish lifestyles, after our careers are over. * Are you over 25? * Are you well past your best? * Are you looking for an easy life? * Are you looking for a secure future...

    David Crown

    As I said in the other forum, I was at the Thurrock against Canvey game today. Also there, was an onlooking David Crown. Anyone know if he's involved in football at the moment? Could he perhaps be doing some scouting for us? Or possibly someone else?
