    Adebayor - No Loss

    Generally, when a club agrees to sell their top goalscorer, you can expect a certain reaction from the supporters. It tends to range from anywhere between frenzied phonecalls to the local radio station and furious protests against the chairman in the carpark. Occasionally, in really serious...

    Five From Five

    England 2-1 Ukraine Crouch, 29 Shevchenko, 74 Terry, 85 It was his strongest display of emotion so far. As the final whistle blew, Fabio Capello marched out of his technical area, raised his clenched fists to the sky and roared triumphantly. This was a far more impressive scoreline than it...
  3. Playoffs

    Now take emotion out of it, do you HONESTLY think that we're going to squeak into the playoffs this season? Maybe I'm a cynic, but I think it's too far of a stretch to make up those points and hope MK Donuts, Leeds, Scunny et al will lose at least three of their remaining fixtures, not to...

    Clever stuff ...

    This is clever A LIVING SPIDER... Poke and prod the spider with your mouse. Also, grab one of its legs with your mouse and drag it around the screen. Tell me it's not alive! Also, anywhere on the map hit the space bar and it leaves little bugs _watch the spider go after them. This is...
  5. Why drugs are good

    In response to the Why Drugs Are Bad Thread... Electronica jazz-freak and well renowned acid head Squarepusher has put forward a strong case for why drugs are good! “This album started as a daydream about watching a crazy, beautiful rock band play an ultra-gig. At first, a giant fluorescent...

    Ron Martin - the statement

    Right, let's clear a few things up straight away - Contrary to popular belief, I haven't been avoiding the subject all day - quite the opposite, I’ve been itching to get on here and finally say my piece. Truth is, I too lost out on a lot of work this morning, and the meeting was over 2 1/2...
  7. The Shrimp Toothbrush

    Today we have a request from a certain lucky BBQ raffle winner Big Shrimp Richard with a band that were formed out of the ashes of the punktastic Undertones. They split in 1994 but according to Wiki they are on the verge of reforming, no doubt to play Wembley Arena and cash in on all their hits...

    It's good to talk

    I noticed tonight on Irish tv, there were at least 3 instances of adverts encouraging people to talk more if they have problems that are affecting their daily lives. Always hearing people harping on about their physical health, and how they need to do more running or gym work is all well and...

    Men and Women behaviours

    After having a brief debate with ESB on the Sex in the City Film thread, it is clear that men and women both act very differently. What I have always wondered is, is this due to the genetic make up of a man and woman's bodys' or is it down to peer pressure, media, social groups etc? For...

    Manchester United v Chelsea Euro final

    They went into the last day of the league separated only by goal difference and when it came to the final of the biggest cup competition in the world, the margin between Manchester United and Chelsea was somehow even thinner. After 120 minutes of gruelling football that ebbed and flowed between...

    'You'll Never Walk Alone'

    The parties went on long into the night. For the third time in four seasons, Liverpool were through to the final four of Europe's most prestigious competition. Rafa Benitez had asked and the Anfield faithful had provided. The old stadium was rocked on its foundations by the noisy supporters and...

    Avram Grant Part 2

    The lone figure on the touchline hunched his shoulders and pulled his long coat closer in the bitterly cold wind. Around him, 40,000 angry supporters howled at him in derision. "You don't know what you're doing!" they roared. "You don't know what you're doing!" The figure remained still, unmoved...

    Ribery Set To Shine

    With Euro 2008 now less than 100 days away and UEFA showing no signs of inexplicably kicking anyone out of the tournament to make room for England, it’s time for acceptance. Naturally, this acceptance will come easier to you than it will to me, which is why I decided to get the heads-up on a few...

    Boring, boring Chelsea

    Thanks to Chelsea, I’m in a lot of trouble right now. You see, when I cover an away game from the television, I usually take the opportunity to invite a few people over, let them raid my beer fridge and then sit nearest the television with a notepad while they chatter around me. It was only...
  15. Steve McClaren In Disguise

    This is not a knee-jerk reaction but something that has been building for many many months. I believe that its time Tilly and his staff moved on and passed the reigns to a fresh face. Having taken the plaudits and praise for a few good seasons (and being rewarded with a new contract) it has...

    Tilly out?

    After the brighton game a fair few people went nuts on here calling for the head of our most successful manager in our clubs history, TTK started that lovely thread calling for his head and a couple of others agreed, now I not saying Tilly should be unsackable if we at bottom of table and...

    Vintage Shrimperzone: Retro Poll No.1

    Retro is in kids and to boost flagging morale I thought it might be an idea to revisit some 'classic' debates that have been ground out on Shrimperzone's pages over the last five or so years. First up is a question that for a few seconds intrigued the Shrimper world back in November 2002-...

    Boys don't cry

    Following on from the Rocky thread, let's all join hands and open up, eh? When is it ok for a chap to blub? As I divulged, I had to choke back the tears during Cool Runnings recently. Any kind of sentimental sporting moment usually does it as well. Who was that runner who collapsed on...

    Boring i know, but Tilson IS to blame,

    If he can't see it then i wonder just how good the boss is. I have been harping on for about 8 weeks how it is like playing with 10 men when blue eyed boy Gutts is selected every week. He has no passion, no energy and very rarely plays a ball to his own man, why can't Tilson and Brush...
  20. Thank You Brentwood!

    I didnt realise Brentwood helped us out today! This Essex 'One Love' makes me overwhelmed with emotion! : http://www.southendunited.premiumtv.co.uk/page....00.html
