    The Annual May Day Farce 2015

    Are all you London workers looking forward to the annual disruption so the great unwashed can 'protest' against everything they take for granted any other day of the week? I'm expecting the 'Critical Mass' cyclists/******s to give as many tippers drivers as possible grief by blocking the roads...

  2. New FA Plans

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32024808 The proposal includes: A player will have to have been registered with his club from the age of 15 - down from 18 - to qualify as 'home-grown'. The minimum number of home-grown players in a club's first-team squad of 25 will increase from eight...

  3. Grant Shapps

    So nothing about this despicable ****? Not surprising I guess, the tories of SZ wouldn't want this story to gather momentum. Several major media outlets aren't running the story either. Strange eh! So he lied about having a second job while a fully paid MP. But in defence of that lie...

    Doorstepping

    My constituency is a close run thing now - we've always been a strong Tory hold - Ann Widdecombe was MP, but the new MP, Helen Grant, keeps putting her foot in it, with expenses, comments about passports, women's sport, a lot of people have lost faith in her. Anyway, I've now had 2 doorsteps...

    Housing "crisis" idea

    Apparently some 25% of adults live alone. I imagine a significant proportion live in a house (as opposed to a flat). So how about this... a grant from central funds to convert your house into two flats (e.g. a downstairs shower room/toilet/basin. an upstairs kitchen/ette) and planning permission...

    My missus has a old family friend who does house clearance and is a sometime antique dealer. He is also seriously mad as a brush and can bore for Britain but his heart is in the right place.

    Question Are Play-offs a certainty??

    On BBC Essex last night, they were wanging on as if a PO place was a dead cert. They kept saying top 3 might be hard to grab, so Blues will have to settle for play-offs, but my question is, when did our PO spot become a guarantee? I'd say we'll be there or thereabouts, but I wouldn't take our...

    Sturrocks squad vs Browns..

    Looking at Browns squad this year compared to the squad PS had when we lost out in the play offs, which would you prefer? The likes of Hall, Grant, Mohsni, Dickinson, Clohessy etc.. Or are what we have now? Which is stronger?

    Who would you have back? Ex Blues players

    So Grantie is available for loan and Hall is unattached. Both are thus "available". For me Grantie is good BUT we don't have a spot at his position AND Hall brings too much baggage. Ex players I would have back (still playing) are Hammill, Francis, Devitte and Hooper. I am sure I have missed a...

    Grant on loan. Do we show an interest?

    Anthony Grant has been made available for loan by Crewe - apparently for having a bad attitude. Would we have him back...is there a place available or is our midfield strong and dominating enough? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/25089401

  14. Ref Watch ...... Exeter A

    The referee currently appointed to the match on Saturday is Steve Bratt from Walsall. I say currently as he hasn't done a game for a couple of months and only 5 all season. He started young as part of the "talent group" of referees who were being groomed for future "stardom" and it all went...
