  1. I was dying to get on the pitch but i was with my old mans mate who said ''Your old fella will kill me if i let you go'' which was understandable but i was gutted.
  2. John Dempsey's hair is a real work of art far superior to Bobby Charlton's piss poor scrape over. I wonder if John Dempsey ever done that Fonz thing from Happy Days looked in the mirror and thought '' Yes John you the man''. He must of used a ton of hairspray to keep that thing down he must have had the worse bed hair known to man.
  3. Rumours are that there keeper wore glasses and there left back only had one arm.
  4. Yeah remember my first silk scarf that i had Eddie McCreadies blue and white army tied round the wrist. It's hard to equate the Shed and Stamford Bridge of then and now, different times but definitely different fans now.
  5. I was at Borota's debut against the scousers very hairy in the Shed that day it was absolutely packed. Me and my mate got crushed to fuck only 13 at the time.
  6. Remember him scoring that 30 yard chip in the cup winners cup game. That was if memory serves the night that about 6 blokes becoming fathers for the first time. All through the game congratulations to John etc over the tannoy.. That's what i love about Chelsea fans we always get our priorities right.

  9. Mind you the worse pundit is Steve Claridge. Apart from sounding a bit like Bernard Bresslaw he's a thick bloke who thinks he's clever. Fair play to Joey Barton (uber cunt) who said to him the other day on 5live '' That's why your an ex manager of Woking and he's a premier league manager''. Don't forget Claridge was hired and sacked by Millwall in pre season because they realised pretty quickly what a colossal twat he was.
  10. Circle of cunts ha ha it's very apt it's like the shit version of the knights of the round table. Anyone else for this non illustrious gathering how about Robbie Savage though he's more of a twat then a cunt.
  11. None of them come out of it well but what a fucking prick Karl Henry is. Millionaire's asked to pay a possible mansion tax yet they think it's fine for someone who's got a spare bedroom to pay tax. Sol Campbell is another one who laughable as it is has said he wants to run to be the London Mayor for the Conservatives i would love to see that cos he's such an idiot and so profoundly thick he can scarcely form sounds, let alone words
  12. F.A. BRINGS IN NEW REFEREE TO REPLACE MARK CLATTENBERG
  13. For his first season Costa has been exceptional the only gripe is his temperament which at times can be petulant and you know you'll never get a full season out of him because of suspensions. Remy should get far more game time then he does he's scored some important goals for us Sunday's goal could be pivotal. Then you come to dear old Didier who's such a legend but this is a season to far for him. Playing in Turkey and China has knocked the edge off him he's a shadow of his former self. His first touch has completely gone and at the moment he looks like he couldn't trap a dead mouse never mind a football.
  14. Outstanding keeper. Champions League Final 2012 he faced six penalties went the right way for all of them saving three.
  15. The problem is a lot of our support are blokes in there late forties early fifties (myself included).So lets say before the game you have a big feed and a couple of pints and you sit down to watch the likes of Burnley and Hull well it those exactly get the pulses racing. There will always be a good atmosphere when we play the likes of Liverpool, Man Utd, Spurs etc. Another problem is when your playing the likes of Palace there fans are treating it as a day out and are not expecting to win so will sing for 90 minutes. While to a certain extent we sit there expecting Chelsea to win and we treat it as another humdrum match. Mind you i hate the idea of singing sections atmosphere at football is organic and not like joining a choir. I do have my suspicions about the atmosphere at Selhurst Park now that looks totally preordained and phony.
  16. FROM NEWSTHUMP. Prince Harry to take over as Sunderland manager Speculation is rife that Prince Harry is leaving the Army in order to take over at Sunderland AFC. “It seems the obvious narrative,” says journalist and fan Simon Williams. “Gus Poyet has been sacked, Dick Advocaat is appointed an interim manager, and Prince Harry leaves the army in June.” “The only way you can read this is that Prince Harry will be installed in time for the transfer window.” The young Prince, famous for being photographed with his plums out in a Las Vegas hotel, will face a tough time at Sunderland with many people believing he’ll start his tenure in the Championship. “Oh yes,” said Williams, “Sunderland are a total sack of wank.” Prince Harry at SunderlandThe Royals have, for a long time, wanted to get into football management. Prince Andrew was expected to take over at Wimbledon FC in the early nineties but unfortunately was far too busy shagging to do so. Prince Harry has been linked with numerous jobs since announcing his intention to break from the Army; presenter of Top Gear, UKIP councillor, and manager of the Brentwood station branch of WH Smith. “Look, I can’t say anything,” said Sunderland board member Ellis Short. “Would we like to have Prince Harry at the club? Course we would. He’s a big name and he’s got lovely hair. But we’ll have to wait and see.” The expected move for Prince Harry has fuelled speculation that the Royal Family will offer Gus Poyet a job as a minor royal
  17. Van Gaal surely the biggest head in football. You can't get the whole of it in the photo ! http://static.dnaindia.com/sites/default/files/2014/12/06/290222-louis-van-gaal.jpg
  18. A mate of mine was saying look at those Man City players crowding round the ref (Nasri should have been sent off) i bet the media won't say anything. But in truth with regards to the P.S.G. game you get the feeling that the crowding round the ref was preordained by Mourinho in the dressing room. I'm new to this forum and have to say i'm not a Mourinho fan his histrionics are tiresome and i wish he could make us more of an attacking force. There is no excuse for having all that talent at your disposal and yet making us an awful team to watch.
  19. It can look pretty churlish to complain when we are 6 points clear with a game in hand and the capital one cup in the bag but: This is the weakest premership in memory not one team has been consistent. We are devoid of any confidence and look totally knackered. When you look at the way the team was set up for the Capital One cup final, a centre back at right back, a right back at left back, and a centre back in midfield yet we won the game comfortably. The one player who has lost all his confidence is Oscar basically because Mourinho is trying to turn him into James Milner.
  20. Apart from possibly Man United no one has a better record then us at The Emirates.(lost only once i think). But i really can't see us getting a result there. I don't want it to be another what if game. If we did happen to take the lead i think we would beat them comfortably because of the gaps they'll leave. But it's got 0-0 written all over it. Surely to God we won't be negative against Q.P.R. now that's a team who are there for the taking.
  21. This is from the comments section from the Guardian. The bloke who wrote it doesn't say who he supports (it's a piece on Fabregas) but he's in my opinion pretty much nailed it. thebigfeller 22h ago3132On they stutter, doing entirely un-Mourinho-like things (or at least, compared with what we came to expect from him and them in his first spell in England). They'll win the league comfortably: by default as much as anything given the total lack of consistency beneath them. But... ... There's something wrong with Chelsea, and there's something more wrong with Mourinho. Their results and form have been going south ever since his nonsense claims of conspiracies (which he claimed when at Inter, and again at Real Madrid, and again now) began: at a time they were miles clear and walking the league. Since then, we've had: - A 5-3 thrashing at Spurs who, as a few observers woke up to today, are VERY overrated. They have almost nothing in their side likely to scare anyone of any repute. But this was only the second time a Mourinho team's ever conceded 5 - An unthinkable humiliation at home, against League 1 opposition: and another 4 goals leaked into the bargain - 3 draws in 4 home games, including against bottom 3 side Burnley. Mourinho teams just never used to do that - And another draw: which this time eliminated them. Wednesday night's debacle against 10 men. Again, previously unthinkable Chelsea fans probably won't be bothered by much of this. They're comfortably ahead; it'd take the collapse of all collapses for them not to win the title from here. But while I used to regard the argument that Mourinho didn't know how to coach genuine attacking football as unfair and a caricature, he has simply become a far more fearful, negative coach since being blown asunder 5-0 by Barcelona. He's almost completely reactive: so obsessed with the opponent and the referee that his teams rarely impose themselves from the outset on anyone. His roboticised approach (good grief, he even SPEAKS like a robot: listen to him, he does) is, I think, at odds with players like Fabregas, as it was with the ludicrously mishandled Mesut Oezil in Madrid. Not losing big away games is much, much more important to him than winning them: his caution let Man City and Man Utd back in meetings this season, and Chelsea have blown a whole bunch of leads in matches. Why? I think it's stemming from him. I think he makes far more in-game tactical errors than anyone seems to spot; I also think his intensity and obsession with starting fights with everyone exhausts his players. First time round, Mourinho was as effective at shielding his players from pressure as any manager I've ever seen. I don't think that now. He drains the life out of football matches, but maybe out of his teams too. And his chronic over-use of six core players, despite strengthening the squad hugely last summer, speaks of someone obsessed with loyal lieutenants in whom he entrusts everything - but not trusting many other players (especially young ones). Why? Two trophies this season will paper over the cracks - and Chelsea fans will laugh at this comment, I'm sure. But something is amiss; the whirlwind's going to blow itself out again. I think it's already doing so.
