    Euro 2008 bets

    Anyone got any fancies for upcoming feast of football ? For what its worth heres my fancies. For the outright ive got to go for germany, hardly ever impressive but somehow allways seem to be thereabouts. Playing in Austria is virtually a home match for the men from the bundesliga. Group B...

    Chelsea fans will feel crushed today

    Thanks guys, really glad you liked it! Here's the follow-up: High up near the rafters of the Luzhniki Stadium, as the early morning rain washed away the tears of his expensively assembled superstars, the Super Tsar himself, Roman Abramovich, sat disconsolately wondering what might have been...
  5. Sports massage

    Anyone recommend a decent one in the SE Essex area? I'm running the Great Baddow 10mile road race on Sunday and after ten weeks of training my calves are a little sore after running, I could do with all the help I can get ahead of the race as I want to beat my four colleagues that are also...
  6. Derby's Joke Season

    The natural English love for the woeful underdog should extend to Derby's comedy campaign in the Premiership this season, but am I alone in enjoying every moment of their misery? I refer you to May 1, 1994, when young SUFC fans invaded the pitch expecting the same camaraderie with the away...

    Owners doners Zoners

    With the problems the owners have had to suffer this week, I ask how many Zoners contribute in the form of a donation? Probably not any so we have the National tomorrow with probably 40 runners. How about 40 zoners doing a fiver on a horse to win, or 2.50 each way with the proceeds going to the...

    Liverpool Not Out Yet

    Liverpool fans must be feeling numb by now. There's only so much bad news you can take before you end up rocking backwards and forwards in the corner of the room, dribbling on your shoes and the weekend defeat to Barnsley was the final straw for most long-suffering Reds. Never has there been...

    Shame

    "Shame. Shame and eternal shame. Nothing but shame." The words of the French knight, Bourbon, in Shakespeare's Henry V after his French forces were obliterated by the English at the battle of Agincourt. How England could have done with Henry V on Wednesday night. Even Henry VIII would have...

    Song to TRY tomorrow at cup game?

    There's a thread running called "loving feeling" where some of us have been playing with new songs to sing. These are the front 4 runners. We're not pushing for one of these to be the new club song - unless one of them really catches on. We just want a bit of originality to pick up the crowd and...
  11. Poker - Home Game

    Hi All, I know there are a few people on here, who play poker, Im going to be having a home game on the evening of the 30th... Starting around 8pm... in Southend... (Maybe a bit far for most) Have enough room for 20 runners, About 8 people confirmed so far, Plan on doing a £20 FreezeOut, Deep...
  12. Did Sir Steve have a bad game ?

    I thought so. Leon Clarke is not a target man (although he diidn't shirk giving it a go) so the dreadful semi-hoof ed "out ball" from Richards (cos they don't trust him to knock it 10 yards to the fullback) was going nowhere and Eric was not ready for a gruesomely knowledgeable Tranmere...

    Ricey, this could be for you...

    ..you work in the fire department, don't you? Anyway, I was at a 'road runners' event today which is about road safety, drinking and drugs etc (and even driving a car for the first ever time! woo!). Anyway, the fire crew did a display cutting out somebody from a car. My question was, where...
  14. The jontosh2001 DEFENCE analysis!

    DEFENCE The good (or bad) thing about football and being a football fan is that statistics tend not to lie. Often you hear people saying that the stats "don't tell the full story", or "we are better than our position in the league shows", but this is often only justified in the very short...

    April 29th 06 vs April 29th 07

    ...I really can't believe how fast a year has been and gone! This time last year we was all on a high, revelling in the sweet smell of promotion to the Championship after securing a 2-2 draw at Swansea! What a day that was, absolutely quality, best day of my life (i have to say)! And now, a...

    Lets try to look forward - even if we do go down :)

    Well, I was expecting more today. It had been a great day - met Matt the Shrimp at 8:30am in Lewisham for a fry up breakfast at Maggie's in Lewisham (can heartily recommend it, if anyone is in the area). We pored over the Grand National runners and riders - my early tip of Kelami (based on a...

    The Lead Boot...

    We've all heard of the Golden Boot - that trophy awarded to the most prolific striker at the end of the season.  The heroically talented Mr. Eastwood has already bagged one for his personal trophy cabinet. However, here at Shrimperzone, we're not happy unless we're moaning... and so I give you...
