    Another train annoyance....

    This week has seen a succession of quiet journeys until one arrives at Benfleet and a mass of idiots board, pull the strings on their backs and don't stop jabbering until they get off. Anyway, I've noticed an alarming trend developing. After projecting their voice as loudly as possible around...

    If the plans for FF got turned down.....??? (The Only Thread)

    I'd think to think it won't ever be an option now but say the plans for FF got rejected as well as any appeal and the only other site was out of the Borough but Uncle Ron managed the move with a lot more consideration than Jobson's Basildon United plan, what would be the general consensus from...

    Internet keeps cutting out.

    After the mammoth saga with my dodgy computer I have been feeling a bit bored as since November my computer has been working perfectly. Which means I've had nothing to moan about. However since Orange took over Wannadoo around Dec' (my ISP) they increased my speed from 1Mb/s to 4Mb/s I have...

    David Sullivan

    I was trawling through the Times yesterday and there was a small article about David Sullivan. Apparently he's fed up with the commute to Birmingham, doesn't like the Brum fans anymore and is interested in investing in a club around the London area. He would've liked to buy West Ham but they...

    XFM Wonderland Gig~

    Chaps, Have bought some standing tickets for tomorrows gig at Brixton ~ Kasabian. Kooks, Automatic, Feeling, Boy kill Boy. This means I have a spare pair for sale, these are for unreserved seating, because I am a decent fellow before I sell them tomorrow, I offer them to a SZ'er for the same...
  7. Stop Living in the Past!

    I do not understand why so many fans seem willing to write this season off and are therefore not bothered by our current form. Many fans are almost willing us to get relegated just so the club can return to the days of playing Macclesfield / Barnet and attracting 3500 people a game. We are a...
  8. 11:15 from southend central

    Took over an hour to get to Basildon, loads of police looking for someone at Southend central then it all kicked off before Benfleet when one of the carriages got it's windows smashed in. Anyone got any more details? I hear West Ham may have been involved!

    Hmmmm Could it be?

    Now as some of you know Teddy Sherringham has moved down to Benfleet road (apparently next to Ron Martin) Now today Carlton Cole is expected to sign for West Ham. This leaves me thinking..... Could it be?

    Limehouse Station

    Ahoy, Since my company relocated to Canary Wharf I occasionally find myself with a 20 minute wait at Limehouse station for the next train to Benfleet. In this situation I would usually nip to the nearest pub and have a quick pint. Unfortunately the nearest pub (The Railway) is an absolute...
  12. mini bus

    Anyone got or know anyone that has two spare seats on a mini bus going Swansea?? Need to get there from Benfleet.

Tony Scully scored the first in Exeter’s...
  20. Limehouse/DLR commuters

    I have an annual season ticket from Benfleet to Fenchurch St. I have just moved office to Canary wharf so it is costing me a further £2.60 a day on the DLR. Can anyone who uses C2C and the DLR advise me on the cheapest way to get there?
