    Take Me Out To The Ballgame: MLB 2012 Thread

    It's Opening Day today, so high time for a 2012 thread for the select band of baseball fans on SZ. It's been a pretty eventful close season for my Cubs, the biggest signings all being off the field. Out went manager Mike Quade & GM Jim Hendry and in came Theo Epstein (the man that ended...

    We Are Facing a Drought

    According to those who know these things, we are facing a drought that could rival 1976. Here's an solution, who agrees or disagrees, like I don't already know. We currently have an energy shortage, a water shortage, and a need to reduce our carbon footprint right? So shut the hippies up and...

    A goal drought so far, but will the floodgates open now that Foran has scored for ICT?

    Official Match Thread Southend vs Huddersfield

    Well, after 3 long months of no league football, the drought comes to an end today with the visit of Northerner's Huddersfield Town who are marking their centenary. Lavish spenders their purchases include ex-Shrimpers stalwart Peter Clarke and Watford Striker Theo Robinson. Along with a young...

    Gerrard Is The Write Stuff

    Steven Gerrard is the Football Writer's Player of the Year. That's better. You see, if you want something done properly, ask a journalist. Admittedly, that saying only holds water if what you want is to have someone drink all the beer in your fridge, or spell something incorrectly, but for once...

    Don't Panic, Arsene

    As dawn broke on the morning after the worst night of his career, I wonder what Arsene Wenger was doing. For some reason, I imagine him stood at the back door of his house, watching the sun rise slowly over his dew-drenched garden, sipping coffee and shaking his head pensively, wondering what...

    If we could reduce the world’s population to a village of precisely 100 people, with all existing human ratios remaining the same, the demographics would look something like this: The village would have 60 Asians, 14 Africans, 12 Europeans, 8 Latin Americans, 5 from the USA and Canada...

  11. The Silence Is Deafening

    2 1/2 Weeks to go until the big kick off and we have 13 squad players... Now, I won't use Braintree as an excuse, mainly because I think the number of friendlies we've played in quick succession didn't help the performance, but whereas I think the team we have is capable of great things in this...

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6525967.stm I remember he tore us apart a few years ago, in the infamous Scarborough FA Cup game. We were 1-0 up and cruising when Tes Bramble got injured. On came Donkey Broughton, and suddenly we couldn't hold the ball up front any more. Even worse...

    Serious Question About the Pitch

    With all this work being done (which I for one believe is needed, even if just to lower the pitch so the run up for a corner is easier) I was just wondering what happens if there is a drought order and we can't water it once it has been seeded?

  16. Set pieces

    Why are we so profoundly poor at set pieces? Comments abound with regard to the need for a prolific striker but where are the back up goals when a drought is on. None of us are filled with confidence when we get a penalty let alone a free kick or corner. Not only do we normally fail to create...
