  1. Keegan classics

    if only so we can hear more pearlers like these: 'It's like a toaster, the ref's shirt pocket. Every time there's a tackle, up pops a yellow card.' 'The ref was vertically 15 yards away.' 'There are two schools of thought on the way the rest of this half is going to develop; everybody's got...
  2. Air horn

    A SUFC steward today came to me and wanted to take away my 10 year old son`s air horn (apparently because it was too noisy). This steward's attitude reflected all that could be said in favour of being nothing but a jobs worth, he served no purpose than to frighten my son, really **** me off, and...

    Last nights homework

    I'm starting to wonder what is going on with our education system, last week my youngest daughter brought home a certificate saying she was proficient in ten different types of massage technique....handy for a six year old. My Thirteen year old won a prize in a painting competition despite the...

    Duran Reynolds?

    Having a few days at home (inc today when your all at work:p ) has given me chance to read the programme which I must confess I normally skim read. I always enjoy the youth section and there was one really interesting story in last weeks programme. We have signed a young left back called...

    41 year olds and Jeans

    My wife has decided to 'treat' me to a pair of Jeans for my Birthday. I haven't worn jeans for at least 10 years possibly more, so the question is what do I do ?

    Have you still got it?

    As you all know I am trying at the age of 41 to keep the bains of middle age at the back door, by thinking that maybe I can stop father time by some mastersroke from catching up on me. Sadly I have become aware that maybe running a mile in under 6 minutes is never going to happen, Playing five a...

    The Cheltenham thread......

    Ah the perfect opportunity to lose all your well-earned. I'll kick off the proceedings by tipping the Irish trained Sublimity to win today's feature race, the Champion Hurdle. This is more by process of elimination than anything, but I just can't contemplate the favourite Detroit City winning...

    Anna Nicole Smith drops dead

    Spent all that time fighting for that 86 year olds inheritance and dies before she can enjoy it. Ah the beauty of Karma..
  10. Well Done!

    Saints fan here, just thought I would pop in and congratulate you guys for the win yesterday. You seemed to have a game plan and stuck to it, and fully deserved the win (although I'd love to know which game the ref was watching, cause it definately wasn't ours! ) Anyway, a few more...
  11. The club selling Junior Blues seats to adults

    On Tuesday, we got to our seats and found they were Junior Blues seats, i.e. we couldn't actually fit in them being adults and having longer legs than 10 year olds. I thought this was a poor show, as the club had not said anything when the tickets were bought (like they do with a restricted...

    Tattoos on women

    Seeing the pictures of Fearne Cotton that Hexagon Sun posted on another thread got me thinking... do you consider tattoos as something that is really attractive on a girl, or can it put you right off someone who, otherwise, might have been rather appealing? Importantly, the age-range I've...

    Didnt think I needed to panic!

    Went down the ticket office today to renew my sons season ticket and apply for mine and my daughters........ oh dear! All but 2,or 3 seats left, nothing together in the R.B.S and as it is nearly a sell out, no tickets available on match days! Im Donald Ducked for the family enclosure, so...
  14. Any Serenity and Firefly fans here?

    I love Firefly...can't belive it got cancelled:( My fave quote:- Capt. Malcolm Reynolds: [Over the ship's intercom] This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight... turbulence and then explode.

    Local Radio & SUFC

    You may remember some time back I mentioned a new local station coming to Southend borough soon, and how we should lobby Ofcom (through their public enquiry) that we need a station with good coverage of the Blues... Well, the four bidders for the licence have been announced, as follows...
  16. The Younger Support

    I am going to sound like a bit of a misery but I am slightly embarrassed by a small section of our support.  I was sitting behind the goal and there was a section of 12-18 year olds sitting not far away. I understand that there is a fair amount of banter between two sets of fans during a match...

    George Reynolds

    Taken from the BBC: The ex-chairman of Darlington Football Club has been warned he is facing jail after admitting cheating the Inland Revenue out of £650,0000. George Reynolds, 68, and his cousin Richard Tennick, 58, admitted carrying out the tax scam between 1998 and 2004. Newcastle Crown...
  18. My Views on everything since Oxford

    Well having read everyones posts (all 29 pages of them) and having had time to diggest a few things I thought, well I felt I needed to write as I have so many opinions on posts from posters on hear, I think what it does show is so many personalities in people on these boards, and I don't...

    Friendlies - Tactics

    How many second stringers do people normally select for a friendly ? I've thrown in quite a few 17/18 year olds in and I'm using 5-4-1 for only the second time. I've already got 4-5-1 up to excellent and I'll use this with pressing in most away games and 4-4-2 at home. A lot of...
  20. Blue Belles

    Hi All, Well, I dont usually complain but I am getting a bit bored of the half time entertainment each week. You see little kids dribbling as soon as they come out for their half time dance. Now im all for half time entertainment but they also seem to be getting younger, what next 5 year olds...
