    Snide condiments - A false economy?

    I just paid three quid for a sausage sandwich with ketchup and when I got to my desk and unwrapped it I was horrified to find twi sachets of Harrison's tomato ketchup. Needless to say the establishment will not be getting any further business from me. I have also just finished working for a US...
  8. Question Is Phil Brown right or wrong ???

    Having glanced through todays Echo Phil Brown has now labelled the players " A bunch of children". Following on from his rant last week where some on here thought stating the players lacked character in public wasn't right, has he gone to far still further with this latest public outburst?? (...

    Haye vs Fury

    No surprise that David Haye has got an injury. The fight has no been postponed. I honestly thing that Tyson Fury was going to destroy David Haye. Think Haye actually thinks he's a lot better than he is. He got found out when he fought Klitschko and I think the same will happen if and when...

    Who do you hate most and why?

    Further to OBL's thread re warm feelings and animosity , who do you hate most? Why?
  12. How far would you go to watch Southend??

    Great story about Exeter going to Brazil next year to play a friendly in the Maracana against Fluminese as part of a 100th year celebration of a historic match in 1914. Can you imagine the Blues playing there? More importantly, would you go? What is the furthest afield you have travelled to...

    MONEY! MONEY! MONEY!.........but at what price?

    An interesting polemic. In the first instance you have the impression that religious dogma is clouding a players professional duties..........then, when you read further, it's not quite as clear as that. As an ex-pat 'Wonga' doesn't mean that much to me but when you read about the company...
  14. Kevin Davies - just saying

    From Sky Sports interview. You have to reckon on us being one of the clubs he is talking to. So who knows. Might not be as unrealistic as it might seem: What's your mindset heading into the summer? How are you approaching being a free agent? I've just been working on part one of my A license...

    Biggest load of drivel I've ever heard

    Not sure how they got my details, but some loons have sent me an email suggesting I sign a petition to protest about there being no women (other than HM The Queen) on British bank notes. Whoever wrote this needs to get out more. "Mervyn King, the Governor of the Bank of England, has announced...

    POLL to decide changes

    Further to previous thread, I have added a poll and we will go with the majority decision. The questions were: 1) As fascinating as games such as Accrington v Burton are to predict, how about have one fixture from league 1 (Borient or Col Ewe) included in the 6 games? 2) I probably...

    Health and Safety Gone Mad

    To use that good old Daily Mail expression this is Health and Safety Gone Mad. I am halfway through cooking a microwave curry. I put it on full power for four minutes, and the instructions say peel back film lid, stir and recover. I didn't think it was that much of an exertion to be honest, but...

    I had a chat with Ron last night

    I don't normally post, but I thought you chaps might be interested. I attended a charity bash in London last night at which RM happened to be sitting on the table next to mine, so I took the opportunity to have a quick chat with him and this, in brief, is what he said... He is confident that...

    Phil Brown - Moonlighting

    Phil Brown at Upton Park, BBC 5 live pundit"It ended up a great finish from Robin van Persie, it was a very tight angle. It was getting a little congested in the West Ham penalty area and United are going for the win now."
  20. Poker Player Ron still will not show his hand!

    Well card playing Ron even after Southend Council's Developement meeting on 10th April will still not show his hand. And we still do not know his opinion or if he will start building soon! :finger: No club statement, all is quiet. As we know the local authority need £1 million up front...
