  1. Chelmsford Chieftains

    Do any 'Zoners go and watch the Chieftains? Started going seriously last season and absolutely loved it. It's nice to watch a sport as yet untouched by the evils of the big time, the players are only paid expenses.

    Breaking News Today's Echo - Who owns the Blues? (2010 thread)

    Who own's the Blues.... It seems that Sainsbury's are not far off from owning the lot with the loans they have shelled out and the controlling interest they will have if debts are not repaid. The article is far to long (4 pages) to post it all here but the main points as I see it are. Rm's...

    Southchurch Independent Puts The Boot Into Council Road Projects

    A bit closer to home, in the council elections, amongst the usual guff in the letterbox from all candidates, was an outright allegation of one councillor deciding on a road project scheme to help herself. Southchurch Independent candidate Mike Wilson stated "At Cuckoo Corner a survey showed...

    Southend West

    As mentioned on here, I'm not a great fan of Amess (see 1 and 2 for starters!). Additionally a friend of mine is running as the Labour candidate.... Tom Flynn His Blog It's his first time as candidate and has been given a relatively tough seat to contest. Only downside is he is a West Ham...

    If You Think Ron Martin's A Wrong 'Un .....

    .... compare this to current Chester City director of football Morell Maison. Since being appointed by previous owner Steven Vaughan in November he has refused to pay any playing or managerial staff their wages. In fact he hasn't even bothered to meet them. He has, however, sent a letter this...

    Admin Fees Revealed

    Let's just say i stumbled upon these earlier and quite frankly, it's no wonder why we're in trouble. This list is taken from SOL website. Unfortunately i can't post a link or copy and paste the origional article. Make of it what you will.... DETAILED PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT...
  9. Aren't we forgetting something here?

    If Ron Martin can organise the debts to be paid off, that will be terrific news but only a start. What is the position on that, by the way? Is there any more news to confirm whether HMRC are going to be paid and if so then how? What are the terms of the finance underpinning the payments? But...
  10. You've got to hand it to him

    I've never met the man, so haven't seen his skills first hand, but you've got to hand it to him. Ron Martin must have incredibly slick PR skills. He seems to be like teflon. Whenever there is something bad to face, either someone else is put forward to take the flak or he somehow wins people...

  12. United Cleared, Can Continue European Pillage

    Well, anybody could have seen that one coming. No sooner than Le Havre made idol threats to sue Manchester United for all they're worth, A Fifa judge has cleared them of any wrongdoing and allowed them to sign French starlet Paul Pogba immediately. United are usually as immaculate off the pitch...
  13. Recession? Immigration? No, Women's Football!!

    The country is in a deep recession, masses remain unemployed, the National Health Service is understaffed and immigration is spiralling out of control. Forget all of that, The FA are not doing what they're told! Sports Minister Gerry Sutcliffe took precious time out of his schedule of claiming...

    Hole in one cover

    Currently digging around on the net for travel insurance and came across 'Hole in one Cover', reluctant to believe my initial instincts I had a quick dig around and found that in fact my first instincts were right. Most 'Business/Golf trip' insurance policies cover for a 'Hole in One' covering...
