    Over on 606

    There's quite a good debate going on as to who will fall off of the pace first, Us, Swans, and Huddersfield. Linky poo I quite liked this post from Shire counties shrimp, is that anyone from here? Yeah, it could easily be us. Who knows? I wasn't at all impressed by Huddersfield when...
  2. Back From Swindon

    Got back from the wilds of Wiltshire at about 7.30. Fantastic effort from Southend, we started excellently and within a couple of minutes Barrett put us in the lead. They missed a free header to level before we took control - the keeper saved low to his left in a similar incident to the opener...

    League 1 scores...

    If the Wiltshire Robins thought they'd had a bad day in the office when they lost 2-1 at home to the mighty Shrimpers, then I guess they can console themselves with the thought that they're not as bad as their neighbours down the M4. Did you see that Swansea result... Swansea 7 Bristol...

    A bizarre weekend...

    Living in Lincolnshire was always going to make Saturday an awkward journey to MilStad. Coupled with the fact I woke up Saturday feeling rough as toast (nerves, or the 'Good Luck' meal my girlfriend treated me too on Friday??) and just could not face another 4 hour drive after dashing up...

    Essex v. Worcestershire

    Well, here's hoping we do better than we did against Northamptonshire, in which we were extremely fortunate to snatch a draw... The start of play was delayed by rain, but they got underway at 1.40 pm. Worcestershire won the toss and elected to field; Essex are making stately progress...

    The fbm view and ratings

    There is something about a fixture against Swindon that conjures up special memories for me.  Two of the finest games I have ever seen at the Hall have been against the Robins, a 5-3 victory in the early 80’s and a 3-2  victory in our first season in the old division 2, with Ian Benjamin laying...
  13. Fed up with my name!

    Bored & depressed as we were on the way back from Bostonshire and driving past places with wonderful old footballers names like Deeping St Nicholas, Guthram Gowt, Surfleet Seas End, Gosberton Clough etc, I regaled the assembled Hooly Tours masses (i.e. mcnasty!) with my most boring story.   At...

    The fbm view and ratings

    The home match against Boston last season was the match when I made my “debut” as an official SZ reporter.  We lost that game 2-0 and the atmosphere afterwards resembled that of a funeral. Stark contrast tonight – the game had everything and for once the Blues did NOT let a large crowd – 5688 –...

    Chairman leading by example
