    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...

    I see that the Poppy-embroidered player worn shirts that were on a minor no-mark auction website whose name cannot be mentioned have now all sold, raising a grand total of: £4753.01 Superb effort from everyone who bid, and especially well done to the winners. Top price went to Sir Adam's...

    Rafa's Poisonous Glow

    There is a frog in Central America, the strawberry poison dart frog, that is born bright red as a warning to predators of the poison that lurks in its blood stream. It is not the only creature whose colour signifies danger. Certain snakes, insects and the oft-spotted Rafa Benitez all share the...

  9. Christophe

    For me he was MOM last night, he makes his job look so simple but he was everywhere! several times one of our defenders would go forward and lose the ball, my heart would sink and i'd think, oh god we're short at the back, then i'd glance at our defence and there would be Christophe, filling in...

    Post-Match Thread and Ratings Southend United 1 Leeds United 0

    Well done Steve Tilson and the boys... No boring 1-0 this one. A truly enthralling match at the Hall in which Southend emerged as worthy winners through an excellent long-range free kick from Dan Harding on 18 minutes. Southend started well in the first half with a virtuoso performance from...

    David Tennant and Patrick Stewart

    Went to see the aforementioned in Hamlet up in Stratford-upon-Avon yesterday. It was a superb production, and the performances not by just the main two where fantastic. I was sat spellbound for over 3 hours. I was also able to see Tennant in Love's Labours Lost on the same day, once again...

    Shepherd's Bush Shrimper's Scunny Report

    Apologies for the delay with this one. Makes less depressing reading than reports of our humping in Bristol though.... It’s fair to say that the North Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire region is not a happy hunting ground for us Shrimpers. We very rarely seem to pick up points at the lovely...

    Kinnear Kickstarts Shola Show

    Could it be that Mike Ashley has actually made a sensible decision? The man whose baffling policies have crippled Newcastle United in little over a year doesn't get much right, but in the recruitment of Joe Kinnear, of all people, he might allow himself a smile. The forgotten man of English...
