    Mugabe

    Other than Oil - can someone please explain the difference between Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden and Robert Mugabe and why we only seem to be pursuing military options in two of the three cases (Iraq rather than the original obviously) Incidentally I was at an event last night and got...

    Morals

    Just received this email, hope this thread doesn't get locked quick smart. A teacher gave her class of 11 year olds an assignment to get their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end. The next day the kids came back and one by one told their stories. Karl said, 'My father's a...

    Newcastle v Chelsea

    Chelsea may have made hard work of it, but two well-taken second half goals gave them a vital victory over Newcastle here at St James Park, and set up a nail-biting finale to the season. Level on points, but separated by a yawning gulf of goals, Avram Grant will have to pray that Manchester...

    Derby v Arsenal

    There was a point in the proceedings at Pride Park when this odd football match crossed an invisible line between disaster and farce. An Arsenal cross looped into the home penalty area, but drifted a little too far and looked to be heading out of play. Derby's wardrobe-shaped Darren Moore...
  6. B.A.G.’s Partly Political Broadcast

    ‘It’s all About the Oil’ Since I began posting on this board, you, my fellow Zoners may have noticed that I am a contrary fellow who relishes a good argument. I’m not sure if I was made this way, but I do know that there were three years of my life that were pivotal in my development as an...

    The fbm view and ratings

    PANTO SEASON IN FULL SWING AT ROOTS HALL Roll up! Roll up! Come and see the Christmas pantomime. No – not Dick Whittington at the Cliffs, or The Wizard of Oz at the Palace, but one that beats the lot – Cinderella at Roots Hall. Why Cinderella? Because no Southend players went to the ball (at...
  10. Rebuilding required ?

    Forget this season, i'm afraid that despite there being in excess of 20 matches left, we will not avoid relegation - cue the rose-tinted glasses brigade to fire all kinds of unpleasantries in my direction Quite simply, we can no longer blame bad luck, for while the side does have the...
