We Hate Scouse

We offered him a contract, but he wanted more money because he is living in a disillusioned world thinking he is the bollocks. Probably brought on by Chelsea fans giving him to much credit. We didn't give him more so he thought he'd try else were. Only rated him in the Mourinho era, not bothered he's gone. Judas Cole

I've had some information back. Apparently the club are losing a lot of money due to staff wages at the training ground and unnecessary expenditure. They are making staff cuts and cutting hours. This is Ron Gourlay doing this, I don't know whether it was under instruction from Abramovich. What worries me is if we are making these cuts, they may also lead to academy cuts and possibly damage our future. I'll post anything else as soon as I hear it.

Same, but I wouldn't complain if we did get Torres.

Haha Poland would be an immense away day!!!! Cheap beer and Polish women! Although I've heard/seen hooliganism over there is very extreme!!

Indeed it was. Really hoping this is better and we don't get the first timers again. We haven't sold out so it doesn't look that way, which may be good atmosphere wise!

WONGAAAAAAAAA! Haha!!! Blackpools sponsor is immense!!

Ribery!

I'm pretty sure it was Ballack!

Now that he has got the burden of England off his shoulders, he can concentrate on club level football. He will win the golden boot next season. Mark my words.

Plus the obvious fact it effects the game immensely!

If they do charge they will not get a very big turnout at all!

Yeah I can't see him leaving and even if he did the only people that would be able to afford the club would be billionaires anyway.

I have heard that the top managers at Chelsea have been having daily meetings that could ''affect the jobs of every single person there.'' My mate who works at Chelsea has been told by his manager (The head groundsman) that Abramovich is leaving. He told him this a few days before the meetings were even scheduled. My mate thinks that there is the possibility of Abramovich leaving Chelsea and liquidating the company. Obviously I told him that is madness as he could just sell up to some rich bastard. What I think is happening is that they are cutting jobs to cut the spending. This is obviously worrying news as it may affect the transfers. I don't know what to make of it all. It will either be pretty much nothing or will be massive news. Only time will tell I guess.

Rafa's techniques are shocking! I am certain he will fail within his first season at Inter.

Emerson Thome, Lenny Pidgeley, Christian Panucci (Another Championship Manager legend!), Robert Huth, Del Horno!!

Sam Dalla Bona was my favourite Championship Manager player back in the day! haha And how can anyone forget Stanic with that blinding goal he scored on his debut!

Quaresma, when he first came I was so excited about him. The hype he had around him a few years earlier was big. God knows why!

Calm down, there's still 6 weeks left to sign players. Plenty of time.

Nope, it isn't just you. When I heard it was going to be orange and black with pinstripes I was expecting great things. Thin bold pinstripes would have looked lovely!

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport/football/3053057/Ashley-Cole-set-for-30million-Real-deal.html Very sad news!! I hope we sign that Coentrao to replace him.

No we wouldn't owe them anything because his contract came to an end. If they offered him a contract and he rejected it we would, but because he just left we wouldn't.

Not what I expected at all. If that is it they could have done a much better job, especially with the pinstripes!

Maniche! Such a pointless signing.

LOL at that United top! That is vile!
