Blimey I thought you lot were far too young to play Pac- Man that's more my era along with Space Invaders and Asteroids you used to have to queue up to play in the late 70's early 80's. They used to have Space Invaders in pubs it used to be hilarious seeing old geezers playing and having money on it rather then playing and having money on darts and cards.

I'm firmly in the not confident camp I'm afraid. Must win game for them, Emry's record in this competition, the 2-0 win for them in January where we never laid a glove on them plus our injuries and the uncertainty of Sarri's future. Would like to be more positive but I can't be. -

I've just got an email from the Chelsea Megastore saying all roads lead to Baku not if your a fucking fan they don't. It should be all roads lead to the local bar or pub.To think of the numbers we've had at our European finals 25-30,000 for Moscow, Amsterdam, Munich and we brought 20,000 plus to Sweden in 98 to only have 2,000 is a disgrace. The club should have at least tried to help but no so instead they want you to fork out money on the new kit it really hits home how football fans are taken for granted and clubs prey on that. -

Don't know if you ever used to go to the Blues Bar at SB it's what Frankie's is now. It used to be really good in there much better atmosphere than the ground if we couldn't get tickets we used to watch games in there. Think that's where everyone poured out after Moscow it was a terrible night for me not only the result but when Lamps scored I jumped in the air and got kneed in the back of the leg had a dead leg for about a week. Drowning your sorrows for the next couple of days is not a good idea with a dead leg when your in the pub and you need a piss . -
It's been a bank holiday Monday since it started as far as I know. Last year's I can't comment on but it might have clashed with another event in London. When they were played in Wales QPR had just lost to Cardiff a late goal as I recall and the camera panned into the crowd on to one of my best mates who was nearly in tears it took a long time for him to live it down !

Moscow all the bars in SB were packed you couldn't get near the ground we watched it in the Seven Stars most of Chelsea old and notorious boys in there. It was a Wednesday and I don't think there was a beamback as such as the game was on ITV. Pretty sure there wasn't one for Munich besides I couldn't watch Chelsea on a beamback without a pint in my hand FB !. I've lost count the amount of times I've watched this. -

It's really going to hit home when if we win instead of thousands of Chelsea fans as in Munich and Amsterdam celebrating (basically half the stadium) we'll have about as many fans if we were playing Southampton at St Mary's in a stadium twice it's size absolute fucking liberty. -

It's the locals and the local councils I'm afraid these parades have to be agreed between Hammersmith and Fulham and Kensington and Chelsea. No other club has to negotiate between two councils which is another factor in the rebuilding and why it's proving so difficult. I've been to nearly all the parades the best was the first in 97 (pic below) but we never had one in 2007 when we won the two cups. I think it will only be if we win the premier league or champions league from now on. Plus if Spurs win we can't have one not on the Sunday anyway. -

Just noticed between Armenia and Azerbaijan the Uefa delegates most of stayed here when they decided to pick Baku for the final -
Sarri I've got some bad news and really bad news Gonzalo. Your not playing in Baku but even worse the pre match meal will be totally vegetarian.

I think a bit of perspective is needed when it comes to Lampard. Derby finished 15 points behind the second placed team and they only just scraped into the play offs. I would imagine that Derby would have been fancied more than Sheffield United and Norwich to get automatic promotion. The Villa manager took over from Steve Bruce with them struggling and he could get Villa promoted at Derby's expense I don't see anyone putting his name forward for the Chelsea job yet Lampard has simply because he's a CFC legend. As other posters have said this is our weakest squad for years and with a possible transfer ban it's not exactly ideal for any manager regardless of their experience. It would be hard for Frank to turn the job down if and it's a big if it was offered to him but I just don't think the circumstances are in his favour. We are going to have to bite the bullet and stick with Sarri I'm afraid and hope for some improvement for next season

You said you didn't understand my argument no offence son but I don't understand any of this. Anyway in a nutshell I don't give a fuck about Liverpool and have no interest in them or their players so I'll leave it there.
-
Comparing Hull to Liverpool is laughable mate he was more or less plucked out of obscurity Robertson to become a world class full back. Doesn't matter if players made sense at the time it's what they go on to achieve I proposed to my missus that made sense at the time !
-
Schmeichel was an outstanding keeper. But at 23 Cech was definitely the best ever young keeper. At Zola's testimonial game I bet my mate a fiver that Cudicini would still be number one for the season he had been brilliant for us but I was proved wrong the fiver was no problem my mate's gloating was though !
-
Robertson cost 8m from Hull when he was 23 that's young and cheap to me. 140 million quid for two quality players we've pissed money up the wall on Morata, Drinkwater, Bakayoko, I'm still not convinced with Kepa and Jorginho is woeful that's 250 million quid on shit and average players.

Ha ha that's rich coming from you mate all you ever do is moan. So Derby are 90 minutes away from the Premier League if they lose what then he's failed in his objective. Lamps is a legend but giving jobs because they were great players rarely works Shearer and Giggs although only part time were terrible Trevor Brooking couldn't save West Ham under similar circs. Hoddle at Spurs didn't work Daglish second time round was terrible for Liverpool. Anyway consider this matter closed I'd rather stick knitting needles in my eyes then have a conversation about anything with you.

Don't think you can compare Sarri to Ashley Cole a 60 a day habit compared to a social smoker are two different things entirely. I gave up smoking 10 years ago I got fed up off going outside to smoke in the pissing down rain and I'm glad I did. Smoking is not a character flaw but Sarri does look like a dishevelled wino trying to suck the life out of a butt he's found on the pavement.
