    Moving away

    reading the Rons Blog thread struck a bit of a nerve. Mrs FS is currently in an interim position above her substantive post and looked in line to get the position permanently, however a change in the board has put that in a bit of doubt. She would find it very difficult to return to the...
  2. Ronnie Biggs

    What are the Zones thoughts on this? Jack Straw says Biggs is wholly unrepentant and will not grant parole to a very sick, elderly man who is obviously now no threat to anyone. Is it sour grapes on behalf of the establishment or should he be made to stay inside until his final breath?

Amoxil is also called Amoxicillin and Nurofen is also called Ibuprofen. The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful...

    Adams Better Off Out Of It

    How thin is the line that divides success from failure? Size zero model thin, if you're Tony Adams. With five minutes remaining in Portsmouth's weekend clash with Liverpool, the former Arsenal defender seemed to have turned the corner. His side were leading the title contenders and powering out...

    Older fans in football

    Just got back from Orient, not a great match but a brilliant moment at the end. But it was the celebrations that made me smile the most. Now I will start by saying I generally stereotype older sections of our fanbase to be somewhat more subdued than other, younger, areas. This is of course not...

    Bless The Old

    Toward the end of Sunday service, the Minister asked, 'How many of you have forgiven your enemies?' 80% held up their hands. The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one small elderly lady. 'Mrs. Neely?'; 'Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?' I don't...

    Lee Trundle is overweight

    Lee Trundle is overweight, he has a double chin and if he entered the 100m sprint against a tortoise, an elderly shirehorse and a small brick, no-one could guarantee him a place on the podium. He has also just put Bristol City one game away from a place in the Premier League with a strike that...

    The B.N.P.

    So, they have done extremely well again this year, coming 5th in the london Mayoral Vote. But do we really know the truth about the B.N.P? Have you actually read the manifesto and mission statements? Ok, so they are a bit far right of the middle, but they want the best for this country. In my...

    Avram Grant

    Avram Grant arrived here at White Hart Lane looking for the win that would set up an unexpected assault on the title, but when he left shortly before midnight, the only thing that had been assaulted was his own reputation. The Chelsea heirachy continue to insist that the Israeli coach is the man...

    Missing person: appeal

    Apologies if this is in the wrong place, but if the mods could pin it, I'd appreciate it. John "Cricko" is an elderly Southend fan known to many on this board. He's been a Southend fan for many years, having first watched Southend in his teenage years in Southend's first ever season (1906-07)...

    If anybody is going to get rid on a biggish Tv in the near future that still works ..please let me know ...it is for an elderly Lady with MS who is house bound and has only a portable size tv at the moment. Thanks Chaps. John.
  19. Thugs Ruined Our Day

    I know there have been threads re; the abuse from Spurs fans on Saturday, but our day was ruined by thugs in our ranks. I should be able to take my son to away matches without exposing him to aggressive and abusive behaviour. If anyone reading this was involved in such behaviour, then shame on...

    Reserves Match Report - SUFC 3 LTFC 1

    Was it the unseasonally warm weather or was it the fact that I'd only recently found out that STHs get into reserves games for nothing ? It matters not. The important thing is that after 33 years of patiently and quietly watching the best team in the world I finally broke my duck to watch my...
