    Final position in the table???

    After an amazing first half of the season, it seems that we are experiencing a bit of a wobble. There have been much worse poor runs of form in the past, but at the moment we are struggling to cement a place in the top 3. I would love to think that we will throw a few wins together and cling to...

    Smash & Grab!

    Over the years of supporting the blues, which games spring to mind where we have snatched an unlikely/undeserved victory? A couple of games that spring to mind for myself - Northampton away during our league two promotion campaign where we scored two goals from corners (Barrett's length of the...

    Chelsea v Southend 2009

    I know the first game at Stamford Bridge wasnt shown live, but I was wondering if anyone has extended highlights of the game? All I ever managed to get hold of was about a minutes worth..... If anybody does Id be eternally in their debt if I could grab a DVD of the highlights....

    Kulula Airline

    Kulula is an Airline with it's head office situated in Johannesburg . Kulula airline attendants make an effort to make the in-flight "safety lecture" and announcements a bit more entertaining. Here are some real examples that have been heard or reported: Kulula's new paint scheme "Flying...

    SUnday Mirror article

    Nice bit article in today's Sunday Mirror, an extedended version of this: http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Southend-boss-Paul-Sturrock-has-admitted-he-could-have-quit-football-but-he-just-couldn-t-keep-away-article542965.html Nothing too new in it... Wouldn't we all like to do that ;)

    European Athletics Championships

    Gold & Silver for Mo Farah & Chris Thompson in the 10000 metres. Farah totally dominant and a great finish by Thompson from a long way back to grab the silver.

    PL Weekly Points Round 11

    Congrats to the 4 who thought Spain would grab the only goal tonight and thus grab the full 3 points on offer, i must say it was disappointing that after a pretty well supported competition that only 22 played the final round, at least those that stuck it to the end may of crept up a place or...

    Saints Release 13 players.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/8684649.stm We could grab ourselves a totally new squad ;) Anyone fancy any of that lot :P

    Could this be a blessing in disguise?

    Thinking albeit optimistically, I wonder if in a years time we will look back at this relegation as a blessing in disguise? Lets think about it rationally. We clear out a few players that are the higher earners and bring in some players that are hungry to prove themselves on lesser wages. Maybe...

    FM2010 (iPhone) Review

    When I was young I used to dream, not of a career in professional football, or of great riches or even of a date with Kim Wilde. Nay, those were the dreams of weaker folk. I dreamed of a portable 'Tracksuit Manager', that mid 1980s Spectrum classic. I dreamed of whiling away long car journeys to...

    Which players would you want to back you up in a fight?

    Picture the scene: with our squad depleted to a size not seen since our title winning season, you bring your boots along to Saturday's game. Things go well, you come on as sub (in the 85th minute, naturally as Tilly doesn't use his subs until late) and you fire in a late hat-trick to grab a...

    Perma-Tanned Wally

    The sacking of a manager is usually a euphoric release for a struggling club’s fan base, but the only people who seem to be pleased about yesterday’s cruel dismissal of Phil Brown are Arsenal supporters. Still miffed about Brown’s involvement in ‘SpitGate’, they’re delighted to see the back of...

    I have tried everything, Lucky scarf, one glove off, one glove on,swapped from snickers bar at halftime back to minstrels(AKA OUR TITLE WINNING SEASON) I would even contemplate being teatotal for a month if we could stop conceeding stupid goals but if I am truthfully honest I dont think it...

  17. Maher type player

    I think it showed in today's game that we miss this type of player. Not technically brilliant but when the chips are down they can grab the game by the balls and sort things out on the pitch. Only Barratt Macca and Barney seem remotley bothered.

    Barcelona 2-1 Estudiantes de La Plata AET

    Not a vintage performance against a spirited Estudiantes side, but Barca confirm their status as the best in the world right now, and what could be more fitting than for the best player to grab the winner? That's six titles in 2009 for Barca: La Liga Copa del Rey Supercopa Champions League...

    Right you 'Orrible lot!

    Being as I'm now apparently Sergeant OBL, I thought I'd grab your attention...... We have just 12 volunteers for bucket duty tonight and I'm pretty disgusted by that. Come on people, I reckon that is less than HALF of what we need. I do appreciate some people get down there later than...
