    Marcus Trescothick

    Sad to hear of Marcus Trescothick's retirement from Test cricket, especially when without a doubt he still has the ability to play at that level, however his much documented problems with stress have finally made him call time on international cricket. I feel that Trescothick was without a...

    The fbm view and ratings - Canvey

    CANVEY HIT FOR SIX IN PARK LANE TURKEY SHOOT Southend continued their impressive scoring run in one of the most one sided games I have ever seen... and to be honest the disappointment is that Southend could have easily been well into double figures. Tilson played moreorless two different...
  4. Leeds United - at Roots hall - lets get serious...

    Looking forward to a great game and enjoying seeing the famous Leeds United and their famously noisy and committed supporters. Looking forward to some wicked banter and an electric atmoshere - Hopefully the beautiful game has progressed beyond having threats of meaningless violence associated...

    Time for another Fergie whinge?

    Surely a whinge from Fergie about the number of meaningless international games is long overdue? I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate 50 years of the European Union and Manchester United in Europe than for their most successful manager in their history (football didn't begin until...
  6. Stats

    I like this run-in stat that F365 does. Our projected points total on recent form is 50.5. And it gives a bottom 3 of Leeds, Burnley & Luton! And the Shrimpers comfortably safe! http://stats.football365.com/dom/ENG/D1/runin.html It might be a meaningless statistic - but it gives me hope! :D

    The fbm view

    BLUES SILENCE POMPEY CHIMES Unfortunately yet again I managed to miss the opening part of the match (this time 15 minutes) due to circumstances beyong my control, so cannot comment on anything that happened in that time, including Freddys early opener. Steve Tilson had started with what he...

    The fbm view

    Pre-season friendly results don't mean much.  Everyone says so, and even Tillys pre match notes stressed this point. Of course, it's very easy to say this if you win.  But whilst the result may be relatively meaningless, I defy anyone to claim that they are not inwardly just a little concerned...
  9. Battrick

    Another meaningless step on my 14 game romp to the title, only question is going to be how much I improve my NRR by..... (obviously this all said with tongue firmly in cheek, just in case we come a cropper ) Lost the toss, but thankfully they decided to field first Tenterden CC won the toss...

    C&G Trophy

    Taken from BBC Sport website The England and Wales Cricket Board has bowed to pressure from senior figures in the game to add an extra knockout round to the 50-over competition. Many complained to BBC Sport that the format led to meaningless matches for teams that had no hope of reaching the...
  11. (Not) An Update On Centenary Celebrations

    Having not had a reply to an email to the club, I called them to try to establish when a centenary celebration match might be played as I am keen to book my usual July holiday. A chap in the comercial department said it would be a Saturday and most likely 22nd or 29th July. I enquired about...

    Apologies to any stewards on here...

    8-36 am My alarm clock goes off, it’s a match day today and the culmination of a heavy weeks safety training, I've spent the whole week at the Stadium learning to walk up and down stairs, I'm yet to have as many gold stars as my friend Dave but I do think I chose the right career path instead of...

    COCA-COLA LEAGUE TWO UPS AND DOWN By Ross Heppenstall, PA Sport A quartet of clubs harbour hopes of being promoted from League Two as champions this weekend - but not one of them is even guaranteed to go up automatically. Here, the Press Association looks at the games left, the key men and the...

    Never beaten Wycombe

    In all the three times we've played them competetivly we lost every single one 97/98 season. Meaningless, but slightly erotic. We better win or they'll be beatings.
  15. * ORM *

    I have a good idea

    We've just won two on the bounce, with the best away victory for eleven years and forwards actually scoring goals. Let's see if we can stir up some meaningless sh*t instead of basking in current glories and looking forward, hopefully, to the hat-trick of wins this Saturday even without...

    Lack of previews

    Expected everyone to be going totally over the top doing previews on the game. The back page of the Echo is OK and the littlegazette are as thorough as ever, but thus far nothing on Shrimperzone or the official site. Guess Dave must be busy with the programme and blues tv. I'm so excited I...
