Fulham Broadway

Theres a problem with Refs. It has to be one of the worst jobs in the World, as whatever you do you're generally hated. To be a Prem ref you have to work your way up from Sunday league, Semi Professional etc (gobbed on, abused and threatened on the way) and then your in charge of these spoilt wankers on £150 000 a week. They must be some kind of masochist. The FA needs to give them decent money, so a better calibre of people would do the job.

He seems to be shitting himself a bit recently, and what happened to ''I dont talk about the opposition'' ?? Father Alex McGuire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH9LAGP1BjA

I think he has a valid point...no I dont, what the fuck am I talking about? What the fuck has it got to do with him ? Who rattled the Northerners cage ?? What a cunt.

Reckons the League is tops; (Mail on Sunday) Wilkins' first task is to prepare his new players for a clash against United on Sunday and, having earned a reputation for one-on-one psychology during his previous spell at Stamford Bridge, he will looking to have a quiet word with some of the key contenders. 'If it's just a few words in the right direction and it helps, then that's what we're hoping to achieve,' he said. Wilkins' first piece of advice to his new troops, however, was to insist the Premier League should be their priority this season. 'It's vitally important you win your own league,' he said. 'It's a good time to play United. They have played six games and only won only one of those, while we've been outstanding.'

(..and WAFA Cup Thread) Robinho last night for Citeh.....Bag 'O Shite.

Really ? Thought he said he was going to unleash the transexual. The Manc fans will be giving it the big ''Whooooops!'' when Terrys on the ball, and will get all manner of abuse.

That looks a safe bet . He may play Malouda after his Bordeuax performance and one of Drogba or Anelka. Kalou may get another chance as well. Joe Cole always plays well against the Mancs ...Doesnt Scolari let them know a couple of hours before kick off ? Will Ferdinand be brave again and kick another woman ?

Lol Talking of which there was some Israeli rag after the Bordeaux win that had the headline ''Chelsea win Despite not Having Grant'' I kid you not. Yup Clarke can fuck off to the pikeys now. ..

Should be a 9 point gap come 4:00. I expect the Manc fans will be booooing JT, which will fire us up. 3-1 to the whitesocks.

Gathering momentum now; Ray Wilkins is set to make a dramatic and emotional return to Chelsea as a replacement for Steve Clarke – just in time to face his old club Manchester United. The Chelsea great is in talks with the club over a role as assistant manager to Luiz Felipe Scolari and an announcement could be made as early as today. Wilkins, who joined the club as a schoolboy and became their youngest ever captain when given the armband aged 18 in 1975, is seen as the perfect man to replace Clarke given his popularity with fans and his long-time links with the club. Not only did he make 198 appearances for Chelsea, scoring 34 goals, but he was also coach under Gianluca Vialli before departing along with the Italian in 2000. Since then he has been an assistant to Dennis Wise at Millwall and worked alongside Peter Taylor with England Under 21s. But he has also maintained his links with the Blues even playing regularly in the Chelsea Old Boys team. Now the former England midfielder, who was 52 last week, is set to return to his spiritual home and will be seen a crucial part of Scolari's backroom team. Mail on Sunday

Lol this thread was bound to create controversy with a question like that. Havent you asked this before Hingis ? I would consider it every fans duty to make it a priority to make the pilgimage and see the team play at least once, where ever they are, like Yougs did from South Africa. Fucking hell if Muslims can make it to Mecca....

Fulham Road was like a bygone era after the game seeing all the scarves....they should give out rolled up Levis, Ben Shermans and Doc Martens next game.

The way the team are playing, there should be a 9 point gap come 4.00pm Sunday. Belletti is becoming a top utility player, no gripes, just comes on does what hes told, and the boy has a hell of a shot on him.....

Was a right smash and grab partnership, Gudjohnsen and the startled eyed Dutchman. One of the hardest shots in the game, shame the cunt couldnt head the ball ...

This is a good move by the club, if The Scum can be believed. He has an excellent football brain, is Chelsea, (only went to Salford because the club were borassic), and can eventually see him as No 1 if it all works out. Thursday trivia:Met the ''crab'', and sorted him and his brother Grahams tax affairs out.

Breaking news -bit of a result there -fair play to Halsey as well - didnt really mean you were a fat cunt Mike.

What a bargain ! Going to grab a few to go with my 3 flags http://www.chelseafc.com/page/LatestNews/0...1393663,00.html

What is unbelievable is that tackle by that Newcastle youngster Guthrie on the Hull attacker has also got a 3 match ban, .......and it now transpires that he's broken his fucking leg !

I bet Halsey sent him off at first because he thought he was the last man, now he knows he wasnt hes changed it to ''serious foul play''. Quelle cunt. How can referees demand RESPECT, when they're bellends a lot of the time ?

Gets long overdue recognition. To do stadium tours now; http://www.chelseafc.com/page/LatestNews/0...1393265,00.html

Halsey' s red was on the basis of ''serious foul play'' FIFA's definition of of ''serious foul play'' is; "Any player who lunges at an opponent in challenging for the ball from the front, from the side or from behind using one or both legs, with excessive force and endangering the safety of an opponent is guilty of serious foul play." As far as I can see it was an arm across his waist, then Jo thinks ''I'll dive''. Come on Halsey, be a man, admit you're wrong. Decision tomorrow.

....Hence the root of the problem. In several biographies time, guaranteed it will be shown that Grant as ''Technical Director'' , an Abramovich appointment, was the reason of Mourinhos departure. Ashley was nothing more than a '' Baddiel and Skinner, Loaded, lets make 'footy' trendy victim'' , who thought it'd be fun to play ''swapsies'' like he did with football cards in the play ground.

OK lets look at ''alcohol-free'' lager swilling from the stands, Buckinghamshire pile-em-high-sell-em-cheap wideboy masquerading as a real, proper Geordie Mike Ashley. Ashley - ''whay ay maaan '' wears a Newcastle shirt with 17 on the back out of respect for someone he considers to be a colossus of modern footballing excellence - er, Alan Smith. That sort of says it all. Keegan has his faults - there's no messiah in here, just a fucking mess, etc - but at least he has principles in a game that seems increasingly devoid of them. What did Ashley think would happen when, when he imposed Wise upon him? Did he think Keegan would say, ''Well, hell, Mike, that's a terrific idea, I wish I'd thought of that''? As Shearer pointed out, managers should be principally responsible for identifying the players to be bought and sold, and not foisted upon by ''Directors of Football'' or the parasites ''upstairs''. Mourinho anyone ?

Its taken one almighty fuck up after another by the man for him to come out with all that. Now he's scared and comes out with all the ''it takes time'' flannel. Nah fuck him. Too late for weasly words. Good thing about this is it shows fan power is alive and well.

Absolute dynamite -and I hold my hands up when at the start of the season I thought he was a liability, and a bit of a 'luxury' player. If you watch him and Lampard together it's a phenomenal combination, and compliment each others style of play.
