    First post....for a year!

    Just checked out my stats and realised that I haven't made a post for a whole year! I guess this partly comes from the fact that I live in Japan and haven't seen Southend play for what seems like forever. Think I last watched a game over Christmas/New Year 2006/7. Can't have been very good as I...

    So Proud

    Bear with me on this, it is SUFC related.... Last night I went to see my local team play. They are in the Brisbane Premier League and the ground is much like going to Great Wakering Rovers, I'd say the standard of football is pretty similar too. There's a nice little clubhouse, cheap beer and...

    Question Work Experience.

    Where did you go and what did you do? I went to Barclays Bank aged 14 for three weeks I think - maybe two. Basically really enjoyed it. On my first day there my first job was to go round the perimiterer of the branch and pull out all the weeds from the foundations of the branch which really...

    Who Would You Be? Bill or Roman?

    Who would you rather be this summer? Multi-billionaire owner of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich or reasonably wealthy owner of Everton, Bill Kenwright. Think carefully before you choose, there's more to this than meets the eye. Kenwright may have left Wembley empty-handed on Saturday night, but at...

    Question Where were you when......

    With so many great moments in our recent history I have been lucky to have been at many of them, Championship 1981, Stockport in 1987, Peterborough in 1990, Bury in 1991, Col U semi final at Roots Hall in the LDV in 2004, Bristol City and Man U in 2006 and Chelsea away this year. However, I did...

    A Woman's Week At The Gym

    Dear Diary, For my birthday this year, my daughter (the dear) purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me. Although I am still in great shape since being a high school cheerleader 43 years ago, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try. I...

    BNP and UKIP - EPIC FAIL

    I thought my fellow anti-BNP friends would enjoy my friends take on BNP and UKIP leaflets for the Euro-Elections: "This evening as I settle down to more work, I choose to not not respond to the provocation of European election flyers from the UK Independence Party and the British National...

    Leaving It Late

    Newcastle 3-1 Middlesbrough Taylor, 9 Beye (og), 3 Martins 71 Lovenkrands, 86 They don't make it easy on themselves up on Tyneside. Watching this spirited and determined victory over Middlesbrough, the objective observer could be forgiven for wondering why they hadn't tried such an approach...

    Goal celebration at Oldham

    Apologies if anyone else has covered this anywhere, but I haven't seen it if so. In Barrett's Banter in yesterday's Echo he explains what the goal celebration was all about, and has a good word for the fans as well: "I've been asked quite a few times about our goal celebration at Oldham...

    Another Rebel Twenty20 League?

    It seems as if there may be another unsanctioned Twenty20 competition being put together, this time in New York. The ICC have released a statement warning Cricketers not to take part, or risk sanctions such as those who appeared in the original rebel league, the Indian Cricket League. This...

    Question Your experiences of taking the other half to the football...

    I was talking to my boss today who failed to convince his wife to come with him and watch the Chelsea vs Liverpool CL match last night, as she thought it'd be a 'dull game'. But it reminded me of my own experiences when trying to convince the better half of what makes going to the football so...

    The Apprentice - week 1

    Whoever the 16th person was who "bottled it" before the tv stage, he enjoyed more air time than the majority of those on the men's team - Howard excepted. Tonight was all about the meltdown in the girls' team. Stepping up to the plate in week 1, Mona (surely the a and n are the wrong way round?)...

    Flight of the Conchords - Season Two

    I watched the first four episodes of the new season of FOTC over the weekend, and I'm happy to report that I enjoyed them as much as the classic episodes from Season One. A particular highlight is when Bret and Jemaine are forced into prostitution after their utilities are disconnected due to...
