  3. Nasty.....

    Looking at the NR log today as the train before me was delayed - apparently caused by a member of the public attempting suicide by trying to touch the Overhead Line with a metal pole. Of all the ways to go......:stunned:

  6. Ron and Phil.

    Hats off to PS,Good job under difficult circumstances. In fairness to Ron he has only sacked 2 managers in 10 years so RM deserves plaudits for not pressing the manager panic button! PB will he appease the fans by making Freddy the skipper,corner taker,and the only blue allowed to score?.Will...

    Question Overhead Kicks

    I was listening to Radio 5 last night after the England game, and they were talking about Sweden's fourth goal. Someone said that it wasn't the best overhead kick they had seen, and people should look on YouTube for Trevor Sinclair's for QPR. I did, and whilst doing so I came across this...

    England V India

    So the main series of the summer starts today at Lords. Looks to be a pretty well balanced contest and I think we can win but will need a bit of luck with the tosses and overhead conditions. Not going to be the nicest weather for the first test and India are slow starters so we need to...

    Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend 1-1 Burton

    Can't see one of these started so here goes. According to Sky, that was the first goal we've conceded at home in 460 minutes of football so it was a real shame Scott Malone made it look like a walk in the park, going through our defence! Inconsistent refereeing, Corr and Blair were...

    Best Hat Trick ever?

    3rd, 4th and 6th goals in the sequence. A long range free kick, a self teed up overhead kick and a halfway line chip! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FY3OshDG_uo

    Reasons to love Hitchcock

    1. In 'Psycho', where the guy is creeping up the stairs to check out the mother's bedroom, and the camera switches to an overhead view and then - out of nowhere - she rushes out knife in hand. ***** me up just thinking about it. 2. For that amazing shot in 'Frenzy' where you realise that the...
  17. 50 games which defined a decade - Part 1 (2000-2004)

    As we've had our last game of the decade, I had planned to do something about the top twenty matches of the ten years just gone but I found it very difficult to leave some matches out, plus in truth it's some of the defeats which have stuck with me the most. And rather than doing a countdown I...

    Andy Ansah

    Picked this up off the net.....quite a good read for those who remember the legends of the early 90's... Andy Ansah’s wing wizardry for Southend United between 1990 and 1996 helped propel the club into the upper echelons of English football, as the Shrimpers bagged back-to-back promotions from...

    My end of season review.

    I was asked to write a review for college about a subject that inspired me, I didn't necessarily have to talk about how it inspired me but I just had to compile a 2000 word essay. So I chose to do a season review. Well here we are at the end of another season, although in the end we can feel...

    Super-Outsiders? Not A Chance.

    Villarreal 1-1 Arsenal Senna, 10 Adebayor, 66 If it is true that whatever fails to kill you makes you stronger, then soon Arsenal will be invincible. After the painful grind of a season ruined by injuries and internal dispute, the Gunners are growing as a team, and as men. To come back from...
