I go with the flow mate. I should make a bigger effort to contribute and I will. Nice to catch up! And Rafa is still very much a cunt

In my opinion, this rot set in when Bradford turned us over. As far as I am aware, Jose hasn't been giant killed while being in charge of Chelsea or any of his previous positions. To be 2-0 up then collapse in the way they did was frankly just fucking ridiculous. While the aura of invincibility started to wane, the tactics the team were sent out to play at The Bridge against PSG was simply regressive and unacceptable. PSG are a team full of talent, no doubt whatsoever about that, but were we, at that time, not as good, if not better?? Go out, attack, dominate, put them on the back foot should have been the way forward. The criticism the team faced after those two performances, I think, had the players starting to look at one another. Beating the Y*ds in the League Cup Final was, for me, an unexpected bonus as I genuinely feared that we would lose. Credit to the players for stepping up in such a fashion but the handbrakes were well below par. That, for me, was the last hurrah for Jose and this group. I appreciate the fact that we went onto win the league but with each passing game, it was a struggle, a real, real struggle. Of the run in, only Leicester away was anything like back to our determined best. We won the league by a few points, but we really did drag ourselves over the line. Swansea away was our last class, dominating performance. This season has been the worst I can recall since Porterfield. There is zero heart, soul, passion or determination on show. Jose has been at fault on many occasions, his strop about Eva was absolutely risible, the late start to pre-season, and the transfer activity over the last 18 months has proved to be largely inadequate. Costa hasn't performed since January, Fabregas and Matic dipped around the same time, Letting Schurrle go and replacing him with Guardado was just plain stupid. Allowing Mata and De Bruyne to leave was an error of judgement and Djilobodji???? really??? back up player maybe, but this is our worst defensive record since Hollins and he still can't get a look in, so why bother? Is he any better than Kalas? Ake? Christensen? For all the chaos Jose has caused, the players should be ashamed of themselves. Hazard's performance against Victimpool was a crime, an absolute insult. Anyway, on a lighter note: I was in Liverpool yesterday when I thought i had seen a superhero as a man ran down the street with a cape. Turned out that it was just another scouser who had not paid for his haircut.

Easter Monday, 1986. Still leaves me in a weakened state when I recall the events around the easter weekend. Flying high in the league (4th), although no dreams of Europe due to those scouse c**ts the year before. West Spam at home on the Saturday, arrived very positive, we were playing well, consistent and with purpose. Granted the Pikeys had Cottee and McAvennie at their prime, but, as I said, I was confident. Short lived however as the marsh men horsed us 0-4. Onto QPR two days later, now filled with trepidation and confidence fragile to say the least. Gary fucking Bannister, who would get off his death bed to score against us given the chance, scored a hat trick in a 6-0 rout. In the space of two days, both the Pikeys and QPR had ripped the almighty piss right out of us. Desolate days and work the following day was not a pleasant experience. Only got thinking about this after our shameful performance yesterday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDNRgq1r9X4

disastrous result, ashamed of them all. Complete humiliation and we got exactly what we deserved. Very, very big week for us on the back of that. Victimpool on Tuesday, who will be bang up for it, and Citeh on Saturday. Two games I feel that we have 100% have to win.

Absolutely fuck all wrong in trouncing the Pikeys away. Blinding result

A return to terracing is required if the integrity of what is essentially a working class sport is maintained, before its too late

Saints couple of Shaw and Ward-Prowse

2-0 Chels

We simply cannot afford to lose to the Pikeys, the embarrassment would be too much. We had en excuse last year because of the uproar over the fat controller, no excuse this year. If we turn them over then not only does it get us back on track, it leaves those cunts firmly in the relegation positions, which is no bad thing. A trip to the New Den for the Pikey boys next season hopefully, to cheer the marsh men up. Must win, must win

Only an average of four pints? Lightweights

He was pony midweek, at best.

Mikel in again, ffs. Love to know what he brings to the table. Slow and Laborious. No Mata and Luiz? I hope Jose is right. If we lose this one he is going to get dogs

We were fucking awful and there is much work ahead. I hate to revert back to old days, but when we were as lethargic as that, Johnny Bumstead and David Speedie would have noised up the team. Just now, we ain't got that. Fulham on Saturday..............we don't want to lose that

Not to mention the £1 transfer from the Shed to the West Stand Benches

Some of this mate...... was in the shed (white wall), blinding day and all on the pitch afterwards.

Gate 13 on the night in question. Speedo, Clive Walker, fat bloke trying to climb the fence. Great days

Traditionally always been a difficult place for us and I don't think Saturday will be any different. Granted they have lost the Hair Bear Bunch but James McCarthy is some player and I think he will shine in a bigger team. I seen him when he was a kid at Hamilton and nothing fazed him. A one goal win would do nicely thankyouverymuchladiesandgentlemen

Great write up and a real quality clip of probably the first full scale pitch invasion in English Football. 43,000 in the 2nd Divison. Top times. Have a look at some of the fans during the pitch invasions, never seen so many Lionel's and bomber jackets in my life!

Another false dawn from Beasley. Just when are we going to start ignoring his crap on here?? Simple rule in life, Once a cunt, always a cunt.

ffs, sick of saying this. Beesley claims to be Chelsea but he has fucked the club over on numerous occasions in times gone by. I wouldn't trust a word that the cunt says.

Villas Boas rumored to be replacing Tito Vilanova at Barca? Sadly it looks like Vilanova's cancer has returned and it looks like he is going to step down. AVN in the frame apparently.

Top bloke, but he must have been fucking spasticated. Own fault for getting behind the wheel, no excuse sadly.

Why would we want that cunt? or at there simply no moral fibre left in football anymore. I would rather eat my own shit.

We paid 50M for Torres, How does compare to 22M for Rooney?, similar age when transferred. The fee suggests that Chelsea rated Torres as twice the player Rooney is? The club didnt seem to have any issues with lumping fifty big one's to Snivelpool but just 22 for Rooney? Rooney did dip last season, and was very out of sorts, but no less than the form Torres was in prior to his transfer to us. I also have reservations with the Mata issue, want him to stay badly but his name has been banded around too much for these to be nothing in it. Wouldn't mind Rooney as I think Jose could, and would, work on him, but at the expense of Mata? no thanks. Wouldn't mind seeing if Jose can get more out of Torres, if anyone can, Jose can. Having said all that, TFSW has a few euro's at his disposal at Napoli and I wouldn't put it past him putting an offer in for Torres.

White socks is what we are. End of. Bates tried hard to change it in the 90's but failed. It's a look, it's stylish and its Chelsea.
