    Sachin Tendulkar

    Tendulkar has at last scored his 100th International century, against Bangladesh. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cricket/15647684 It's a tribute to his longevity in the game, but in the wake of Dravid retiring, I think that Tendulkar will now walk away from the game, and probably like DRavid...
  2. Earls Hall Blue

    1. Swindon, 2.Shrews, 3. ???

    After looking at our rivals run-ins Im convinced us, creepy, chelts & torquay are fighting it out for the last auto spot. I say this because Swindon are certs for the title imo & has anyone else seen Shrewsbury's run in? The team with the best home record in the league have 8 out of their...
  3. Question Lee Sawyer - Get Him back ASAP

    I know he has been injured for part of the season but IMO it is time for him to get his chance - played in Braintree game and scored so hopefully fitness levels getting there.IMO he is a class act who can put his foot on the ball,create and go past players which I think has been sadly lacking...
  4. Pre-Match Thread Morecambe v Southend United

    After the defeat at Aldershot P.S. has STATED he is making changes ! This is how I see it. Goal: Bentley: Instruction. Mix kicking with quick thro. Looking for your right back and central midfielder that will be looking for the ball from you. while being aware of our 2 wingers who will...
  5. Dick Bate's Protege

    Ricky Ponting

    I see the convicts have dropped him from the one day squad only two games after appointing him stand in Captain; complete shambles with shades of 90's England. Feel sorry for him, should be allowed to go out on his own terms IMO. Never liked him overly, but a true great nonetheless on a level...

    Harry Redknapp & Milan Mandaric

    Anyone following this? The evidence I've seen so far appears pretty damning, a Monaco bank account in the name of his dog that he's apparently forgotten about. WTF? I really dislike Redknapp, I've never bought into the 'Appy 'Arry cheerful Cockerney Charmer image that he portrays. I think he's...

    The Alvin Martin reign

    Funnily enough, Dublin was player of the season before Martin. Before Martin took over, Whelan released Tilly who was due a testimonial Sansome left, as did Sussex, Hanlon and Lapper. Two of his Martin's signings left soon after they signed - Parris and Beeston. Beeston played 8 games...

    Kevin Maher testimonial ?

    Hi After reading the echo i was thinking as King Kev was with us 10years could we get him his testimonial? i hear he Fell out with Tilly so whilst he was in charge he had no chance but surely this True Blue and in my view Legend (still see the FK against QPR) deserves this? just a thought...
  9. Essex cup game at The Hall Tonight 7.30pm Kick Off

    White Poppies

    Wonderful piece from the Telegraph on White Poppies: At the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, I am sure the thoughts of all Telegraph readers will be with those British and Commonwealth Service men and women who fell in the defence of our liberty. But spare a thought, too, for the...

    Ricky Gervais

    According to various newspapers he's in trouble for using the word **** in various jibes on Twitter. IMO it's a nasty word and is definitely a shortened version of mongol, which is now better describe as Downs Syndrome. IMO Gervais is a smug self satisfied tosser, and I hope this is the...

    British Justice.

    In May 2010 Tohseef Shah spray painted a British War Memorial with "islam will dominate osama is coming" he was fined £50 & walked free from court. In November 2010, Emdadur Choudhury burned a Poppy during the 2mins silence. He too was given a £50 fine and walked free from court. Today, 2 men...

    selection headache for crewe ?

    With halls fantastic display last night, mohsni showing composure along with solid defending, great for sturrock to have such depth in his squad, do you think he will tweak things for crewe, I just can not see hall on the bench again tbh, but at whos expense. Grant can stay on the bench for now...

    The new players

    Ok let us discuss the new players that have joined the squad this year to hopefully help the mid table team from last year..How do you see there progress so far and give them a rating. This is my opinion. Neil Harris: failed to impress at all so far , maybe the hoof ball has not helped his...

    9/11

    With the remembrance of that awful day 10 years ago looming close, what are peoples thoughts looking back. We have had numerous conspiracy theories and film archive revealed since that day and IMO this one takes a lot of beating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28QukKjwLtI Over to you people.

    I know its early in the season , but think Burton is a big game for us already

    I know its early doors but statisticly teams that are up there after first 5 / 6 games seem to do well throughout the rest of the season . Ok I don't buy that Crawley are the best team in the division and if I was PS i would get the players to delete last nights performance out of their heads...
  18. (18+) The c-bomb in films/TV shows?

    So settling down to another HBO series (Game of Thrones) and it's clearly obvious that more and more US films and TV shows are dropping the c-bomb. We watched Bridesmaids (a 15) and it was dropped, and I commented that it seems to me to be more used and maybe more acceptable in the US, which is...

    Left and Right Wing Terrorists

    Not wanting to hijack the debate on what happened in Norway, I thought i'd start a new thread about left and right wing terrorists. From my observations (and these are just my opinions) it seems to me that there is a real difference between the two. It seems to me that right wingers actually go...
