    Just a thought...

    Just a thought, with Charlton doomed and Southampton and Norwich looking iffy what's to say that they're not going to come down and swoop on some of our players? Would never want to be a prophet of doom for next season but with these down there in the mix 09/10 season could be an almighty...

    BT - A couple of queries

    1. Players Fitness levels How important are they, and what should minimum levels be etc.. How can they be improved/maintained? 2. Ground Capacity I currently have the base level stadium with 6,500 capacity Standing Room: 3000 Uncovered Seats: 2500 Covered Seats: 750 Members Seats: 250...

    BT20 Leagues

    Kick off tomorrow. Just a general warning that as this is an international competition, check your match start time! I play at 12:30 tomorrow at home then half past midnight on the 4th, had I not spotted that I'd have ended up with my firsts playing against a bunch of muppets on Wednesday...
  4. Scunthorpe on Tuesday

    This is from an Iron fan on another board. Hopefully we can exploit this shortfall in Centre backs. Please drop a few free kicks on the penalty spot on Tuesday night boys! Mighty Iron writes: Have just read on our OS that Byrne and Mirfin will miss Southend then be available for Leeds, and...

    Long Way To Go

    There's a long way to go yet. After an almost flawless first year in charge, Fabio Capello was brought crashing down to earth in Seville by a breath-taking Spanish side who taught him a hard lesson in what it takes to win international honours. England kept pace with the European Champions for...

    Adams Better Off Out Of It

    How thin is the line that divides success from failure? Size zero model thin, if you're Tony Adams. With five minutes remaining in Portsmouth's weekend clash with Liverpool, the former Arsenal defender seemed to have turned the corner. His side were leading the title contenders and powering out...

    Rafa's Not Keane On Robbie

    As a GBP20m striker, failing to make the starting line-up is disappointing. Being repeatedly substituted on the odd occasion that you do is even worse. But the nadir of Robbie Keane's short and unhappy time on Merseyside must surely be the indignity of being kicked off the bench in favour of...

    Free-kick spray

    Genius or unneccesary lunacy? BBC I had surreally hoped this was some sort of trained skunk with a 10 yard spray range - maybe I shouldn't have watched Bedknobs and Broomsticks whilst hammered the other night. Given my initial disappointment I can't decide whether this is a really good idea...

    British Comedy awards tonight

    The usal back slapping crap. Angus Deayton as host surprisingly jumped on the "Woss is ok" band wagon Kevin Bishop acted like a complete c**t, shouting F**k off to every nominee and throwing full bottles of drink at the stage....hmmmmm, maybe if he had won something or not mixted a glass of...

    Terry's Touch Of Class

    If there were any question marks still lingering over John Terry's suitability to captain England, they were blown away in Berlin with a moment of grace and humility that is all too rare in a game poisoned by money and egos. Terry could have explained away Germany's comical equaliser by blaming...

    Recommendations needed - Chinese takeaway near a127

    can anyone recommend a decent takeaway which: 1) serves in plastic pots, not foil (to be eaten in car) 2) decent food 3) can possibly mix rice / chow mein and a main in one container Al and Justin at Hong Kong House only do foil pots, as do jade garden nr the bell, the one near bonnikels is...

    Next half a dozen games

    Looking ahead at the fixture list I think the next half a dozen games will really shape our season and they are a real tough collection, Scunthorpe (A), Bristol Rovers (A), Leeds (H), Colchester (H), Tranmere (A), Oldam (H). Thats 3 of the current top 5 and a derby thrown into the mix. I would...
  13. Request from Ron

    Just received this... I think in his quiet way he is asking for Mildew to get some support for a change.
  14. Breaking News Rev's Daily Diary

    From the Blues Insider e-mail REVELLING IN IT Welcome to this weeks column of ‘Revelling In It’. Whilst I could talk about Saturday’s performance in detail again, sometimes words aren’t enough and it becomes time to let our feet do the talking, of which we are confident of doing so against...

    2012 celebration - was it reflective of modern Britain?

    I thought that the point of 2012, according to the BBC coverage and Seb Coe, was to give the youth of today a memorable Olympic Games. The handover ceremony was handled well I thought, being a bit quirky and an ok mix of old and new, but what the hell was that travesty on tv afterwards? If that...

    The Olympics

    I would have put this on The Slippery Column, but I thought that maybe it would have a wider interest. I think I'm going to get a lot of hate mail for this one.... It has swallowed up half of Rafa Benitez's midfield, savaged Mark Hughes' plans for a successful start, forced AC Milan fans to...

    30+ skills every man should master

    Feature on MSN this morning suggested 30 skills every man should have in their pocket, including things like being able to make a mix tape, keep a ball off the ground, carve meat, protect a computer, tip waiters, play golf, feign confidence, know Shakespeare, blah, blah... Quite frankly, I...

    Chelmsford Friendly Date mix-up

    Just checking my diary regarding setting up a meeting and found that I had the Chelmsford friendly in twice (16th & 28th July). Went to check which one was correct and found this on the Chelmsford site: http://www.chelmsfordcityfc.com/news-update.asp?val=164 And this on our site...

    Women's Way

    The Good Housekeeping Way #1 Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips. The Real Women's Way Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God's sake. You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway. The Good...
