    Which part of Roots Hall did you first sit /stand in...

    ...when you first began watching the Blues ?? One of my neighbours is bringing his six year old boy to his first ever live football match on Saturday, and it made me think back to my first ever visit to the Hall ( in 1966 ) v Lincoln City if I remember rightly . I stood with a friend on the...
  2. Points lost through conceding last minute goals

    Thats 5 so far this season, 1 at Brighton, 2 at Gillingham, and 2 on saturday. They say what goes around comes around so hopefully before the season ends this will even itself out. Admittingly in the last 2 seasons we have scored a handful of times at the death to salvage apoint or three but...
  3. My team for saturday .....

    Darryl Flahaven Hunt Clarke Barratt Hammell Macca Bailey Maher Gower Hooper Walker Black Scannell Francis Richards Moussa gone for a recall for Mr Maher as I m unconvinced by Black on Francis on the right - and I think the only real problem with the other 3 playing together is a...

    The A-League

    Here is an article from a Queensland Roar fans website I go on now and again. They go into the last game of the regular season (they have playoffs, or 'finals' over there) with 4 teams (out of 8 in the league) level on points at the top of the table. Quite an amazing finish, half of the league...

    ....Metal Monday Pt.6 This week one of my own choices and one of my favourite metal songs. I won't include a write-up as the song speaks for itself. Enjoy. :) One of the best metal tracks ever

    Your five-a-side team from our current squad

    Kind of picks itself doesn't it? Darryl McCormack Bailey Maher Leon Darryl beats Collis at shot stopping, and his Draculaic aversion to crosses won't be an obstacle here. With Macca, Bailey and Maher we have a creative midfield that also knows how to tackle. Leon then provides...

    PS3 v Xbox 360

    I'm sure this isn't a new topic, but I'd like to get people's latest opinions now that the buzz and euphoria of the PS3 release has died down and more balanced opinions may be forthcoming. Now that the massive project of renovating our farmhouse is nearing its end, it's time to start getting...
  10. Chelsea Reserves v SUFC Reserves

    Does anyone know any details about the game that was played today behind closed doors??? According to Sky Sports news Michael Ballack played 80mins of the game in his comeback from injury......but nothing else on the game itself. Nothing on the OS either!

    McClaren's pre-Croatia match notes leaked

    Shamelessly stolen from another forum, but I don't care :D Mc – Right, Tel, thanks to Israel I can still get us through to the Euros and can’t afford any mistakes. Goalkeeper – who’s the best in the country? TV – Rob Green Mc – Don’t know him. Is he in the squad? TV – No. Mc – Who have we got...

    Reading - Arsenal

    I covered this game last night, and if you didn't see it then congratulations. It was truly awful and a shocking example of the way the game has gone in the top flight. Here's the report, have a read and be thankful that Southend aren't in the Premier League! "What do you do with a problem...

    Another one to start some controversy......maybe.

    Has just been reported on BBC South East that a Muslim woman/young lady is suing a hairdressing salon she had a job interview with because she was denied that job because she would refuse to take off her head scarf if she was to be successful in gaining that job. She states that she is perfectly...
  14. Rookie Ref watch x 2

    Our men in the middle for the two tough away games are rather on the inexperienced side (not in itself a problem). R. East at Northampton in his 7th ever League match and first ever League One match ..... so the biggest match of his career to date. No hair and a bit picky when I saw him in the...

    Implausable film endings.

    I was walking to work today when I noticed that every other bus seems to adverts for Saw 4 on them in London. I am not sure how familiar you are with Saw as a series of films but the basic plot is some twisted old boy kidnaps people who are knobs in real life and makes them do a task to spare...

    Could you give up sex.....

    For untold Riches... When I say sex I am only taling about the actual deed itself. Anything else that floats your boat would be fine. In return you would recieve untold riches to the point where money problems would never be an issue again. I am talking Abramovic rich. A yeah or neah please.
