    Millwall fans being very gracious on their forum

    http://www.millwall.vitalfootball.co.uk/forum/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=109100&posts=4 We really gave them a complete football lesson yesterday. It was one of the best performances I have seen for years. Very difficult to select a MOM as everyone played brilliantly.

    French phrase!

    OK peeps - I need one crossword clue answered. It's this; "French phrase meaning a noble or gracious act" (5,4) *E*U G*S*E Cheers!
  3. First Class Footballer, Second Rate Sportsman

    Alone in the 18 yard box, dejected with a painful expression on his face. He's missed the penalty, yet the Santiago Bernabeu is rocking. Yes, Cristiano Ronaldo is back to his usual, petulant self and even the Madrid faithful are growing ever-so-slightly tired of it all. If ever a moment defined...
  4. The Mark of a ChampiYong

    Ok, Ok, I know this is late... But I was on my travels while this happened. While your reading this, there's no doubt in my mind that Tiger Woods is on a golf course somewhere, meticulously tinkering away with his swing and clubs, trying to identify just what went wrong at Hazeltine. After...

    Red Dwarf - Back to Earth

    I'm an self confessed Dwarfer and loved all the Red Dwarf series but have got to say the new offering on Dave was a serious let down. Dave Lister was almost sensible, Rimmer might have not been there, The Cat didn't have one decent line and as for Kyrton, well he shouldn't have even bothered...

    Trapped in my own trousers!

    I had the most unusual experience on my life last night. Went up to Forest with my boss (Larger stakeholder for you Naps) who is a really top bloke. He is a mad Forest fan but was really gracious in defeat. I was thinking of going up my coach and staying at my mate Dom's house in Southend but...

    Witham striker

    "Kevin Budge (striker) - Joined Witham from Halstead Town this summer. A gracious player who has an eye for a goal with sublime touches." He sounds more like Wayne Sleep than Wayne Rooney!

    Hilarious Holloway Interview

    Don't know if anyone else heard this, but... After the last-minute, gutting defeat at Plymouth a few weeks ago, and being wound up by little five year old sh**ts trying to give it large, we got to the car in the carpark at Home Park to stick on BBC Radio Devon. I then proceeded to laugh my nuts...

    Colchester

    Should probably give a mention of what I thought of them on the day. Clearly the standout performer was Cureton. His footballing brain is outstanding to the extent that you feel sorry for those around him trying to keep up. Sodje made a mstake but he was on to the ball so quickly and scored...

    The fbm view and ratings - Col U

    HATS OFF TO CURETON AS EWES THRASH SORRY SOUTHEND At 3pm today, the Southend team were completely fired up and ready to do battle with their Essex counterparts in an absolute must win game at Roots Hall. The only problem was that the match kicked off at 12:30. Unfortunately Southend had...

    Experiences of scummy Cardiff

    Fantastic result today, we could go off the bottom if Leeds lose to Birmingham! However....I'm glad to be away from Cardiff. Horrible, horrible place. After the match, some chavs came up to me and said 'If you don't take that top off I'll break your mouth'...charming...
  12. Unreasonable?

    I'm inclined to agree, responding to some Southend fans comments, shame n' all because some of you are quite reasonable!

    Loud and Proud

    Congratulations to all you lucky Shrimpers whohelp made such a tremendous atmosphere at the Hall last night. The noise coming across the airwaves was amazing and completely drowned out anthing from Man U. Were there any reds actually singing? Were there any Essex reds in the home ends making a...

    FAQ 1 : The North Bank

    Why can’t we go back to the North Bank? The simple answer is: no-one really wants to. The longer answer needs a cup of coffee and a comfy armchair ... The North Bank debate has raged for many years, almost as soon as Vic Jobson kicked us all out in 1994 and “forced” us to use the new...

    Well it made me laugh

    No doubt some of you won't find this funny but heregoes: Two Muslim mothers are sitting in a cafe in Ramalah chatting over a pint of milk. The older of the two pulls her bag out and starts flipping through pictures and they start reminiscing. "This is my oldest son. He's 24...

    BBC Essex - Brian Wheeler

    Suggested that the Southend fans may wish to start their own unaccompanied version of the National Anthem on Sunday week. Also confirmed that Southend were informed rather than consulted about the decision not to play it when the teams line up. Personally the "National Anthem" does...
