For the funeral, Mrs Beadle doesnt know what to arrange. She would like a lavish do but on the other hand she thinks a small finger buffet is more appropriate. -------------------------------- It’s a little known fact that after his TV career went down the tubes, he opened a business teaching secretarial skills. Apparently he was brilliant at shorthand.

You watched Utd and Liverpool play lately? World's apart.

Well, with Hargreaves apparently coming from the Robben school of injuries, Saha and Neville still out and Scholes only just back, I still wouldn't say they've hardly had any problems, but anyway.....don't feel any real pressure tonight, mainly because I can't see the title going anywhere but back to the holders this year.

How about some 'community service' type payment? he could come and clean the changing rooms once a week. He's not averse to hoovering up a bit of dust.

Well Utd clearly did cope or it'd be us 4 points clear of them. And to be fair they have had some injuries to deal with, maybe not as many as us but they've had some key players out for long periods as well - Rooney, Scholes, Hargreaves, Saha, Neville - but unlike Arsenal, they've got depth in their squad to cope with it. Which is the same reason we've coped with it so well this season, not because of anything Grant's done but because he was lucky enough to be given a bloody good squad to start with.

He's waiting for Roman to finish flicking through the 'Footballer's Are Us' catalogue.

Terrific news. Maybe we should start a book on how long Mikel will last?

Because it's been identified as a feature of our game, we seem to do it more than anyone else in the prem so we've brought it on ourselves.

Hmmm nice dig at Cole there. and is it just me or is this yet another little dig at Mourinho signing Cole?..........

If we weren't doing it they wouldn't be able to highlight it, simple really. I don't know why no-one seems prepared to admit this is an ugly feature of our game and although we're not the only one's to do it, we probably are the biggest culprits.

Seeing as Jim won't go along with my suggestion, I'll have to agree with Ollie really. It must be pretty much what all the members are looking for, a mix of decent posts without it going into Krypton Factor territory, and the odd bit of humour thrown in. Tri-Blue could be right as well (always a first time), there's plenty of posters here that seem more than capable of writing stuff well worth reading. Other than that though, its all good stuff. Nice work.

Ok, not a favourite in our house by a long shot. But the scouts watched my youngest's side playing today and have asked if he can start training with them. I guess we'll have to start getting used to them.

He looks like a proper tall lad but could do with a bit of meat on his bones if he's gonna cope with the prem I think.

She wants her head testing.

Rapturous applause. Well said that man.

She's a mug. Not sure which bit makes him look worse, the fact his wife's telling the world he can't get it up after a few drinks or that she didn't deny the claims he's got a little dick. Either way he aint exactly come out of this one covered in glory.

I'm impressed with the change in him since JT and Lamps have been out of the side. In terms of presence and setting an example to the rest of the team, he seems to have grown overnight. Is it me or has he not been throwing himself on the floor so much either?

No he only extended til summer but thank god he did. What a great servant for the club, loyal and a true professional. Just steps in whenever he's needed and does whatever is asked of him.

Still dont think Sidwell's anywhere near good enough to wear the shirt but he looked better than usual today. Another frustrating performance from Malouda, lost the ball way to easy and way too often, needs to stop being such a pussy and toughen up. Great performance from Maka again, the bloke's an absolute star. I am loving Anelka already, class goal and nice assist, Shauny wouldnt have been quite as unselfish I think. Anyone else notice the change in Joe Cole lately in the absence of JT and Lamps? He seems to have taken over the reins, great presence and contribution. What a goal from Sibierski though!

Probably not the best decision morale-wise but Capello strikes me as a very clinical decision maker. He doesnt have an emotional connection so his decisions will be ruled by his head rather than his heart.

Tbh, I couldnt care less what Cole gets up to in the bedroom but when its splashed over the front pages and looks like its gonna keep him off the pitch this weekend, then its time he started thinking about keeping his dick in his trousers.

Ok great, from a tarty northern barmaid to a dead woman........keep digging that hole. Older one's? I take it you're referring to yourself, JBD and FB there? Ok back on topic yeah I think the divide comes from some people being happy as long as the results keep coming, after all, it wasnt that long ago when we were struggling a bit and looking pretty unconvincing that the 'Grant's ok' bandwagon lost a bit of momentum - we get into a final and hey ho, he's doing a good job again. Our opinion might not be fully understood but at least its been consistent.

Maybe we dont all want university challenge, there's nothing wrong with down to earth talking y'know. Just because they all compare degree's in the stands these days doesnt mean its a pre-requisite to every conversation about football. Oi, cheeky fucker.

Seriously LMFAO here.

Absolutely agree with that, cant actually see him winning it, but irrespective of whether he wins us anything or not I won't be drawn into believing that a man who can't string a coherent sentence together has actually 'managed' anything more than his bank account during his time at Chelsea.
