Joey was nails fair play.mentally and physically,our JT of the time. we owe a lot of thanks to him.

i remember being at a wedding reception and during the dancing,the grooms brother ( person with Downs)was bouncing around .after getting drinks you had to walk through the dancefloor with them..i had a tray with a round of about 8 drinks on it. the man with Downs was bouncin` in my direction.i couldnt get out of the way..not easy to dive out of the way when you carrying 8 drinks on a tray. so i braced myself for contact just incase he bounced into me..he did.he went careening across the wet dance floor and then got up screaming i had hit him. i had a fookin` lynch mob after me then and not one of them actually saw the incident.the few that did saw nothing wrong with what i did. the grooms reception ruined by the "cry wolf" behaviour of his brother. kinda reminds me about this whole fiasco...Rio missed out on the Euros because of his cry wolf lil shit of a brother.

in the heat of moment people say stuff they don`t mean. JT even if he`s "proven" guilty i`ll never regard him as a rascist based upon a spikey match where he was being abused himself. it`s totally against what he has shown throughout his time as a pro footballer. outside of Lampard pretty much all his closest team mates have been black.

you might be onto something there Henrique. they wanna soften the blow by replacing him with ganso then can spin it to say they have improved at the position. by signing Ganso first they could also spin it to say that Oscar isn`t needed anymore.

oh feck mun. still plenty of time but seemed wrapped up...here we go again. R & R are attacking targets left right and center tho. that`s atleast something pleasing...no lack of urgency from them.

i`d rather us spend big on the real elite prospects than all those 5m deals for players who are loaned out for several seasons because they are deemed years away from being ready, then perhaps not even being able to play for us after that due to fecking work permits. i feel we may have signed our "ronaldo" someone who will be gradually brought in to gaining experience before becoming a huge star in the next 2 or 3 years. he`s not going on loan anywhere. aint it nice to be doing that for a change..Hazard,Marin,Oscar. all gonna be in our first 25 for the season.rather than maybe in 3-4 years of loans and then we`ll have a look at them.

anyone know if Oscar will play in the olympics? i`m very much presuming so but anyone know for sure?. i think the whole modric saga made Roman push ahead here and speeded up when we were going to pouce,with a bit of the Neymar saga,the Robinho saga..Roman wants to get them over here before they get settled and their prices keep rising.

it wasn`t quite as prolonged as with Fabrice Muamba..it was caused by them giving me the wrong med.and it wasnt supposed to be given to children,my mother said when micheal jackson died that one of the meds he was on was what i had been given.but i can`t remember which one i forgot to say that band sounded good at the bridge.funny when the guy mentioned about U2 playing Wembley and he played the Bridge. ..i was into Style Council,U2, UB40, Cutting crew etc....nine below zero..just came to mind too..i loved the song "11 plus 11" was full of scots and welsh werent we back then. my mother began to swing a bit towards chelsea around those days with her boys Mickey Thomas,Eddie Ned (i loved the guy but can`t attempt to spell his name right now. lol) Joey Jones. i loved those kits too back then. i bought a replica of the old away shirt.the yellow one with thin red hoops a few years back. it wasn`t as nice as i remembered it when i tried it on..although i should have predicted that i`m not built like a greyhound now.. haha..d that. McAndrew,Speedie etc.. then King Kerry for the 3 lions. i was so proud when he was in the 86 squad. John Neal was a shrewd manager in the market fair play. as a coach he was my first love for Chelsea... with the weed i wanted to make something of my self i had moved to the netherlands but there`s so much military history in my family and my dad is the only one who wasn`t. i went through a phase of wanting to be better than him,relationship with my dad is good now but back then Chelsea was the only thing we had holding us together. became a combat chef in the RLC but was seconded to the Royal Engineers. i loved being in the army but had to get out on health reasons. i`m very limited on what i can do for work as am classed as disabled now so i just went back on the weed. i don`t smoke it every day tho..just use it like folks do with beer..have a couple of cans now and again. instead i have a couple of bucket bongs haha..i can`t drink alcohol atall because of my meds so it`s my only vice really.

thanks for sharing that FB. can you help me with the year. my brain is a bit scattered today as have been awake since friday morning..(usual insomnia but i`m in a big one at the moment.ha) that is from the `84 promotion yeah? if so i missed the end bit of that season,after a heart attack..or cardiac arrest i suppose is more accurate (i was only 8 lol) it was from a major medical fuck up after only going in to originally have my tonsils out.haha. nice to see a lil of what i missed. i was back for the highbury invasion at the start of the season tho,my dad would only take me to local away games and he wouldn`t take me on certain tube routes.my old man was quite savvy,he wasn`t a casual but had been involved in 60`s and 70`s . his father used to take him but he died in Febuary of `55...never saw Chelsea win the title after 20odd years of going (well apart from the war years as he was an enlisted soldier in the army. before it started so went everywhere the B.E.F went really. he was a sgt. mainly (he yo-yo`d up the ranks according to the copies of military records,get promoted,then court marshalled down a rank and back and for really..i suppose during the war there was lots of promotion oppurtunities. would have loved him to have been around today,i could have got really deep into quite early Chelsea .. it`s a long line of violent men in my family but i managed to break the cycle when i got into being more of being a stoner..then i gave that up for a couple of years and went into the army myself.

for street/prison yard football: Ron Harris,Steve Wicks,Mick Droy,Doug Rougvie. . for the pro`s. Dan,Riccy,JT,Cole. i really liked Frank the beef. thought he really played solid as a CB but his passing of especially long balls was superb so many times . anyone remember the Chelsea 4- Derby 0 game when Zola scored his only hat trick of his career?..in that game Frank hit a 40 yard diagonal to Zola,it floated with perfect weight on the ball over his right shoulder ,as it did Zola hadn`t seemed to be watching it but as it fell he trapped it perfectly between his studs and the ground then in one fluid movement rolled it off to a team mate.it was an insane piece of skill to the point that i can`t remember any of the goals in Zola`s hat trick but the millimetre perfect pass from Frank was sublime too.just incredible skill from both players. even my manc mate who was in town and went to the game with me stood up and applauded. i`m not gonna argue about that being our best era of Chelsea during my thirty odd years watching the Chels but for things like that,the get a goal out of nothing.attacking flair and football genius.it is IMHO. it don`t matter how many titles we win over what we won back then.i will never forget those years with those players. don`t want to derail thread tho so best get back to those defenders. Marcel was superb of course and like Frank unlucky not to get my vote but when you consider how good Gallas was too before the stereotypical frenchness came out in him. imho we definately have had the best batch CB`s overall when you look back over 20 years of the Prem. in the top 10 CB list we should have atleast 4 possibly 5 players on that list.

haven`t seen a wide body of his work but what i saw the kid looked like "he got it" to me. unfortunately he`s at Dortmund now... ON MY FIFA 12!

think i`ll sleep on it. wanna have a name to keep for good next time.don`t like my current one as it`s outdated from what i used 10 years ago.

but with Shurrle we can buy another player too if we are willing to fork out whatever exactly Porto want for Hulk. presumably around 38m ....20m Shurrle,plus say look at another Leverkusen..they have two pretty good and young RB`s Schwaab(sic?) and Castro. we could dress up as Fidel to honour him if he turned out a crowd pleaser...Marxists just want to have FUN! that Borussia M RB looks good too..jantscke Reinartz could be a good squad option,young and can play in two different positions,possibly 3..(CB/DM or possibly FB) or we can put all our eggs in the Hulk golden plated basket and hope the potential is strong enough already.

clearly left for more more silverwear ,could have fucked off to Real and earned more later on for the coach who brought him here in the first place. best LB in the world deserved to be at a more ambitious club than Arsenal have been the last 7 years and on the best wages. he`s remained the best LB in the world but at the time he was signed there was no one even close to him. if the tag that other jealous lil gobshite fans of other teams want to spew and seemingly you were true he could have easily left for more.

what`s the price we looking at? what`s the problem this time with his current club? why can't he seem to just settle anywhere?..the guy has had more clubs than captain caveman! he`s like the continental Tommy Tynan ffs.

good player,could soon develop into an even better one. i would presume Lukaku would be loaned out if he comes. i`m wondering if he might choose Tottenham ahead of Chelsea tho,just as it will be at a smaller club with smaller expectations. there is the question wether he is jewish or not also,maybe living and playing within the jewish community is something that could draw him more towards them if that is the case.and of course if the starting striker is playing shit he will get his chance at Tottenham. that`s not always the case with us because of Torres. i obviously would prefer him to join us or alternatively stay at Dortmund because they are and always have been a very special club with such a fascinating and heroic history both on and off the field. a superb support,great style of play,great stadium,managers etc..produce lots of their own talent and they are absolutely radio rental over Football in Dortmund. lots to envy about them really even as current European Champions.

the history of ex-chelsea players becoming good managers is quite long. Sir Matt Busby,George Graham,Terry Venables are the ones that jump out at this ungodly hour.

welcome aboard. i was out in Austria during the summer when Roman first took over..stayed mostly in Mayrhofen. managed to get newspapers but they would be from the previous day..my wife of the time couldn't understand for a while why i insisted on getting up so early to get an out of date newspaper when we were supposed to be on a "romantic holiday" . winning a tournament she could relate to but doing a stoners version of micheal flatleys riverdance at the crack of dawn in the austrian mountains because we`ve just spent 17million on a player she`s never heard of.started to wear a bit thin on about the 12th day of it. will always remember that holiday..i had heatstroke..it was hotter than calcutta in austria of all places,staying in one of those little winter warmer style of houses,it was like trying to sleep in an oven. but it oddly enough remains the best holiday i`ve had outside of Chelsea and England away trips/tours. went to bavaria for a few days to visit all the sites in berchesgarten .eagles nest,SS HQ etc...kinda glad i saw the places but is grim underneathe the SS HQ in the underground cells where you`d see bullet holes sprayed across the walls etc...

i`m more likely to give birth to a dodo but fuck it ,give me some crack and i`ll run with this rumour.

i doubt if many aussies would mind clubs from mexico or new zealand being dissed.

he`s a quality young prospect. but we just simply have higher quality ones or atleast in the eyes of the decision makers at CFC we do..the writing has been on the wall for some time really..you don`t fork out something like £12m on two teenage goalkeepers if you believe in what you already have in the academy. for me it`s just a question of when rather than if he leaves on a permanent basis. like Jack Cork tho i do believe that he could one day play for England,just not whilst with us.

aslong as he takes an extensive medical and passes it...Jovetic.

that Gary Cahill from Bolton,hope we never buy him,only done it at a small club,villa reject.is not our standard..oh wait......

biggest issue i`ve had in my two years here is the sudden appearance recently of the sexual abuse of children as a prop for humour. it`s not been extreme yet really but maybe a moment of thought to the fact that there is in all probability with the number of members we have. atleast a few people who were abused as children or youngsters currently enduring sexual abuse who could very well be reading such posts and it could have a serious negative effect. i realise that the persons who typed those remarks may have been themselves survivors of sexual abuse and to make some light of it may be your own way of coping with it. but please just think about it for a moment and it`s possible effects. i am a survivor myself and whilst i was not really offended by it,..my skin is tougher than a rhino`s ass these days. i can see how it could affect those who haven`t got to that stage in their lives yet. is just meant as a gentle request to all members,nothing more...i have no intention of holding anything against those who have already made those kind of comments.
