But there's never any consideration given to the fans and how it might inconvenience us. Kick offs are getting later 4.30 on Sunday and the 7.45 on a Saturday night that's just wrong. Travelling south to north and vice versa on a Saturday night and getting home in the small hours on Sunday is frankly taking the piss. The worse I saw was a play off game a few years ago where Gillingham played at home to Morecambe or someone it was definitely a northern team in a play off game that kicked off at six on a Sunday evening.

Some fuckwitt who posts stuff on Twitter is not a true reflection off Chelsea fans. It could have been anyone posting those tweets knowing full well they're going to be highlighted by the media. Forums like this are more of a barometer of true Chelsea fans not racists masquerading as Chelsea fans on social media.

It's not ignorance I just don't watch shit sports like tennis or basketball.

I have the stats ?. The champions league final is watched by between 200-300 million. Have you ever seen a pub or a bar outside the States be ram packed for a fucking basketball game ?. Your point about footballers having to play three games in seven days what about travelling to Azerbaijan play on a Thursday on a shit pitch and then travel back to play Newcastle away on a Sunday. Surely you would have preferred us to play last Friday at home to bloody Norwich than have to go to Old Trafford on Sunday and kick off at 4.30.

Well they do don't they every two games in tennis. If Federer is playing a geezer ranked 200 he hardly has to break sweat. You talk about footballers jogging or walking a tennis player can serve four times hit four aces game over it's not exactly taxing. Those viewing figures are for the States and for the finals our match on Sunday will dwarf those figures worldwide . Doubt you could say the same for a domestic league basketball game.

Terrible comparison how long's a basketball game 40 minutes or something it's played indoors and has unlimited subs. Chelsea - Liverpool last night was watched by a worldwide audience and has massive media exposure and then we're on Sky on Sunday watched by another worldwide audience. Basketball is a shit sport played by seven foot geezers if jockeys played it then it might be interesting if there was a basketball game being played by the worlds best teams in my back garden I'd draw the curtains.

Yes but that's the frustrating part you score you start jumping up and down like a tit and then the goal's disallowed for something that happened a good few seconds previous. I'm not a fan of VAR at all human error is part of sport and you'll have things go for and against you.

Those were the days FB women with apple catcher knickers and minges that were so hairy they looked like a barbers floor

Fuck Liverpool and VAR. VAR is such bollocks if like me tonight you're in the pub you're cheering a goal and next second your deflated if it's offside raise the fucking flag straight away don't let the game carry on. VAR was brought in simply to appease some fucking Malaysian business men who are pissed off that their gambling syndicate is losing money while some poor fucker who's paid thousands of pounds to watch his team play has no idea what's going on. VAR will ruin football mark my words you saw it on Saturday in the City- Pikies game and things will only get worse.

Do you know West Brom claim they were the first to play it at they're ground despite on the sleevenotes it says ''Thank you to the players and fans of Chelsea FC for making this a hit'' or words to that effect. Thick Brummie twats.

Poor choice for favourite player son
-
Football cliche alert : Score first tonight we're in with a chance they score first I can only see us getting pummelled I'm afraid. Definitely not going to watch the pre match bollocks the amount of times Istanbul and 2005 will be mentioned will be off the scale.

Wrong section.

He wasn't a risk at all it was actually seen as a quite astute appointment. When you think of who came before him David Webb was a stop gap and had only managed Southend previously. Ian Porterfield's previous managerial role was at Reading where he was sacked. Bobby Campbell was out of work before he became manager (he did a decent job under the circs) and before him that absolute prick John Hollins who was a player coach who then contrived to get us relegated despite having internationals like Dixon, Durie, Nevin, Dorigo etc.

Just going to show how bent and inept UEFA are will be a far better atmosphere and a full house for a friendly with two English clubs than a half empty one for a major final.

And his last touch was a god awful penalty.

Ha ha jellied eels I personally don't know anyone who's eaten them loved by East Londoners which explains a lot. I think they were cheap food for dockers back in the day when the Thames wasn't so polluted. Probably why West Ham fans are such numbnuts being reared on that shit. I always think of Malcolm Tucker quote from the Thick of It when it comes to West Ham fans so dense that light bends around them

I see your sweets and van and raise you with come to London we have jellied eels and a tandem.

Ladies and gentlemen I give you the most sinister post ever on this forum.

Is the game so boring you've decided to sing a Spandau Ballet song

I'm not trying to censor anyone but let's try and keep the over the top rhetoric if and I emphasise if we have a bad performance today. This is Man United away not Brighton at home so for a new manager it doesn't get much harder than this. Let's give Frank a few games to bed in he's one of our own and doesn't deserve shit slung at him from the get go. It's going to be a difficult season no doubt about it the days of just turning up and rolling over opponents are long gone, carefree wherever you may be.

I've told you before JT you can't play while Rudi's out and don't come to my training session without proper boots.

How this Munich hero has burnt his own cape
Iggy Doonican replied to James's topic in Chelsea Articles
You'll be seeing him with that expression every week when it hits home he's playing in Arsenals back four. Seems to be very similar in character to Mourinho just another manchild. -
Best bit of positional sense you'll see from him this season the cannon aimed at his right ear.
