  1. Ref Watch ...... Bristol away

    Saturday's match at Bristol Rovers will be officiated by Karl Evans from Manchester. He is in his second season and has refereed neither team before. He is an official I have never seen and know little about so I can only give you statistics rather than opinion. He has refereed 28 League...

    ShrimperZone's Premier Competition is back... Yes, ladies and gentlemen... especially you curious ladies... It's been just over 11 months since ShrimperZone's leading competition kicked off with its inaugural qualification round, and we're now just under 4 weeks away from, yes, that's right...

    Blues Questions and answers - Foran?

    I'm sure most of us get the ezine from the club called the Blues Insider. I was reading todays and saw the Q&A session with Scannell called "One on One". It's a regular feature where fans can ask players questions and they are answered in this column. Over lunch I just got to thinking what...

    The Stiffs at Ipswich

    Well, not a patch on the 5-4 game last year and in many ways it was all a bit tame. They scored either side of the half time break, the second being from the spot after Lokando was sent off (deservedly really, though as it was only the stiffs the ref could maybe have bben lenient as it then...

    TV: Stephen Fry In America

    Anybody else going to be watching this? Sounds like it's going to be cracking, there's an interesting preview/interview here... http://www.radiotimes.com/blogs/430-news-stephen-fry/ I especially like this bit... Certainly what I've found on my two trips to America. Great cover to the...

    Similies/Metaphors

    Seen this before but still makes me chuckle. May have to try to use a few of these in every day life, especially No. 30. 1. She walked into my office like a centipede with 98 missing legs. 2. His thoughts tumbled in his head, making and breaking alliances like underpants in a tumble dryer 3...

    That Sodding Dancing Robot

    I wouldn't want anyone to think that I didn't like Transformers. I am of that age. An age where pocket-money was stockpiled and then squandered on curious plastic trinkets with names like Bumblebee, Starscream and Optimus Prime. Look, it's a plane! Look, it's...erm...a robot that...erm...sort of...

  8. Ref Watch v Orient on Friday .....

    This is the "official" one. Beware pale imitations, especially when they come from bitter eastenders and contain large doses of sour grapes. Friday’s match against Orient will be refereed by Grant Hegley. An experienced official, this will be his 11th competitive match at Roots Hall (won 7...

    Question At what time in your life were you truly terrified?

    I've been scared many times - first time you find out you're going to be a parent (especially when you're still at school) is a frightening moment, but there's plenty of joy mixed in. I would have to say my first live engagement in the Gulf. You think you're ready after months of training but...

  10. Good little film

    Watched this yesterday on my Sky+ box and didn't realise it'd be available on BBC Iplayer... A guide to Recognising Your Saints - a "coming of age" true story starring Robert Downey Jnr. Recommend it, especially for those of a certain age! http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00djkr7/

Also can't believe they...

    Question What is the most annoying advert ever?

    I was quite happily sitting on my bed watching Soccer Aid then the adverts came on I normally stick my head down to my laptop when the adverts come on. But this time this Renault advert gets on my nerves the more and more I watch it. The Dubbing is shocking its like a japenese film but worse...

  13. Thuggish behavour

    In the coach after the game alongside us was a Dad and his two sons. Now when the Dad wasn't looking his son who must have been about 8 at most started making gestures at the coach, everybody just laughed. Suddenly the dad starts making "come on then" gestures at the coach like some wannabe...

    Is Football ****ed?

    They say that a week is a long time in politics but, in football, it's a veritable epoch. This time seven days ago, Manchester City were struggling to pay their players, West Ham were enjoying their best start to a season in nine years and, at a surprisingly perky and entertaining Newcastle...

    Fear The Andorrans!

    The time for talking is over. Platitudes have no place on the pitch, especially when the going gets as tough as it will on Saturday night. Fabio Capello's England will be right up against it when they travel to Spain to face the butchers, bakers and candlestick-makers of Andorra's national...

    The truth...and nothing about the meeting.

    Moussa admitted it was a bad tackle. So i'm glad his learnt his lesson, especially with no firm midfield at the moment.

    Steve Mildenhall....

    Come on Steve,get yer chin up! You looked affected by the goings-on last night and i'm praying that you can put the abuse behind you and show just why Tilly brought you in. Danny Graham must be stopped on Sat so we need all of the team bang on their game,especially our 'keeper! Keep on...

    Don't think we were that bad last night!

    Indivdually thought they showed a bit of promise. HRK looks good on the ball and has a good shot on him, Sawyer was lively and looked decent, Betsy as good as JCR, Barney we know can do it along with Francis, Barratt, Clarke, Scannell. Walker looked a very good player on the ball at times...

  19. League Two here we come

    I for one, have actually accepted that we will be in league two next season. I know its early, but going on by the recent performances and the lack of signing i think we are down for the drop. Especially if we pick up a few injuries which is bound to happen.

    Disgraceful -

    Tonight, i had the unfortunate pleasure of picking someone up from Rochford station and just gone 10. On the London bound platform, were 5 Southend Youth players, swearing, kicking things on the track (glass bottles etc) Abusing people. I understand this is what people do at stations, especially...
