    Claude Makelele

    When Roman Abramovich first pumped Chelsea full of roubles in 2003, it sparked a frenzied shopping spree that would have put Coleen Rooney to shame. Hundreds of millions of pounds were splashed out on an array of talent, but I very much doubt if any of it was put to better use than the £16.8m...

    Is it easier to pull a women if you have a beard?

    One of the SZFC lads recently has grown a beard and at the same time has seen his fortune with women take a turn for the better. Friday nights achievement of 2 pulls in 5 mins was more proof that the beard has magical powers. Perhaps women prefer the more rugged look. Anyone else had similar...

    Car Accidents/Near Misses

    After reading Winkles itchy bum thread and his close encounter with unsuspecting users of the footpath, it reminded me of an encounter i had 2 weeks ago whilst driving, where a bumble bee decided to fly in through my window and investigate my right ear whilst i was doing about 60 on a country...

    The Widow Jobson

    Don't know if anyone remembers Vic's Mrs & daughter 'helping' out in the club shop in the late 80's & early 90's? (Think I got £48 change once after I tendered a fiver to buy a scarf!) Was in Shoebury Asda last Sunday & happened to see what looked like a thoroughly cheesed off looking Mrs J...
  5. McCormack To Chelsea ?

    As we are all footie fans ,then I think it is O.K. to talk on here about that magnificent Champions League Final last night .Macca at his argumentetive and aggressive worst would not have looked out of place in the Chelsea team in respect of the way they argued and complained about every...

    Chelsea v Everton

    Chelsea hauled themselves to within two points of Manchester United with a 1-0 victory over Everton that I would be tempted to call dour, if it hadn't have preceded the least informative press conference since Rafa Benitez told us nineteen times that he was concentrating on coaching the team...

    Arsene Wenger will have just one question on his mind

    As he surveys the wreckage of a promising season that has gone horribly, horribly wrong, Arsene Wenger will have just one question on his mind. What changes need to be made this summer to avoid ever having to go through that again? The first thing everyone connected with the club needs to do is...

    The Gunners

    Just occasionally, maybe once a year at most, there comes a football match so beautiful, so intense, so frantic and so scoop-your-jaw-up-off-the-floor exciting, that it's all you can do not to fall to the ground and openly weep in thanks that you were able to watch it. This was an epic struggle...

    Chelsea scramble through

    Chelsea scrambled into the semi-finals of the Champions League with a 2-0 victory over Zico's Fenerbahce that was anything but comfortable, either for the club or for those unfortunate enough to be watching. The continual criticism of their minimalist style of football can be tedious, but you...

    What is this Southend chant/song?

    Just found this in my Potters Bar Town programme. What is it? the love of a woman was my only crime what a fool I must have been I met her on Southend pier when she took a ride with me the road was long to a place she knew where the good times never end and love began on a bumpey ride with a...

    Trouble In Merseyside

    They say that lightning doesn’t strike twice, but with momentum growing at both ends of Stanley Park, it looks like now might be a good time to run for cover. Everton are more than capable of finishing fourth and, at the same time, no-one would be surprised if Liverpool snaffled a sixth European...

    Serious Question

    Should I give up football? (or at least calm down) reason I say this is that its costing me a fortune, getting me close to being in trouble with the law and to be honest I am sick of bloody football! but yet why can I not stop? thoughts people?

    Liptak, Walker, Barnard and Hooper

    Had the good fortune to run into Tilly and Brush at last night's Daggers game. Great blokes the pair of them, and they were more than happy to have a chat. I don't think anything they said was told to me in confidence, so I'm happy to share... On Gary Hooper... T&B were at Dagenham to see him...

    Google Your Fortune!

    Be warned. This is sad and I have way too much time on my hands. Partially inspired by today's threads and one mentioning google the other day. What you do is go to google and search for phrases including your name or someone elses. For example "Darryl will". Make sure you put it in the speech...

    Car

    Sadly, and after 204,000 miles, my car is in such a state there is no point in renewing it's MOT - it'll fail on many points and cost a fortune to repair. I need a cheap vehicle while I save for a properly decent wagon - any (sensible!) suggestions on what I should go for, bearing in mind I...
