  1. Is straightening your hair too gay for a straight man?

    People of the Zone, solve this debate... When my hair gets slightly too long it gets unmanageable, I've got ridiculously thick hair that no matter how short it gets cut, it fully regrows into "unkept mop" in a matter of weeks, So I took to straightening it before I styled it. This morning...

  2. Don't p*ss off Tony Yeboah

    Just got this in an email from a mate: "This month our regular columnist Peter Ndlovu recalls an unsavoury incident from the African Cup of Nations. Things have been quiet this month so when I sat down to write this article my mind went blank. Although the following tale has very little to...

    The battle for succession at Stamford Bridge

    With Avram Grant deposed, the battle for succession at Stamford Bridge is on and there's only man that I want to see given a chance in the hotseat. The enduring bone of contention with Chelsea is that, with limitless funds, they've spent five years building up a very good, but very workman-like...

    Wembley

    Well the alarm on my mobile phone has just gone off, after setting it some days ago, to make sure I get up really early for our big day at Wembley. Shower, brush my teeth, shave, and put on my jeans and my Southend shirt that has been hanging up all nice and pressed since our return from our...

  5. The Source of Our Defensive Difficulties

    We all know that we concede too many goals from set plays, and this has been attributed to a lack of height on the part of our custodian and centre backs. Two of the goals in last night's rout have also been summarised thus: 'I blame the dwarf in nets'. But that's not it. What we lack is hair...

  7. Ref Watch .... Good Friday .. Good Ref ?

    Our referee for the Good Friday lunchtime international match is Kevin Wright. Once again we have a referee who missed the first three quarters of the season through injury and this will be his 5th match of what is his 5th season as a League referee. It will also be his 5th Southend League...

    Big crowds...

    How long are people going to keep coming with performances like yesterday. If you were a neutral you would have said both teams were relegation candidates. Ball was hardly on the floor at all. I will keep coming regardless, but i know people who have been to a few games and would not suffer...

    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...

  12. Is Tilly losing his marbles ?

    Tilly said after the Hartlepool game on the O.S. ''I actually thought we played better in the first half than in the second'' . Now I know I'm getting on a bit and my memory and perception may not be what it was ,and I am a big Tilly fan and was sticking up for him when things have gone bad...

  13. Have we become a Long Ball Team ?

    Bearing in mind at the start of the season most of us thought our midfield 5 were a match for anyone at this level and the fact that we dont have the forwards to play this type of stuff why are we constantly lumping the ball from 10 yards outside our box to 10 yards outside the opposition...

  19. Just got back

    Living in Tiverton it was the game I've been looking forward to, only an hour away. Got off to the worst start - Clarkey very guilty of not clearing his lines and we gifted them a goal. For the next half an hour we were more than competitive and thoroughly deserved the equaliser and glad that...

    What's the real reason?

    Todays defeat hurt. Not because it was against Col U, although there are no doubt some on here that think that if we only won 2 games all season as long as they were against Col U then that would be ok. It hurt because of the stage of the season we are at and the importance of those three...
