Fulham Broadway 17,365 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Just perusing the February issue, and I'm tempted to splash out on the chalets in Villars-sur-Ollon, Switzerland -a snip at 2.2 million, and I did fancy the 'rarri Scagletti F1 only £142 995. Oh and that bottle of water a reader found whilst holidaying in the French West Indies called 'Didier'. Laugh ? I nearly shat. Cynicism aside, there are a few good bits, article on SWP -oh and a pic of Ashley with Cheryl titled Stand by Your Man ! Uncanny, unless they knew he'd been knobbing around. Anyone else think the mag is a glossy piece of tat right up its own arse ? or is it ok ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I have always liked the magazine, but it seems too tabloid since they introduced the new staff team. Could do with some more articles on actual team affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott 7 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I used to like reading every bit as soon as a year ago, but it's got superficial and boring now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 It can be quite hard to get your hands on over here unless you know where to go...... The few times I have purchased it I wasnt that excited about it. Just another magazine on the shelf....minus the baps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its nostalgic but the Chelsea Independent, and Red Card had club talk pitched at the right level not targetting Tarquins and Jemimahs, and they had humour as well, and definitely not fucken ' Tambling Packages for Reading game at £295 +VAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
changingman2000 35 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 I used to like reading every bit as soon as a year ago, but it's got superficial and boring now. Yet again I agree with my man elliott its just tarted up bollocks. You get exactly the same up here with the Old Firm's, except there's is weekly I think.

middleoftheshed 388 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Match programmes are just the same.There are more adverts for posh villas and that new restuarant which has replaced Harry Ramesdens that there is about the football.You're better off with cfcuk or another fanzine, plus they are cheaper.

James 5,344 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Its all aimed at Corp snobs now instead of the fan. They should hire fans to write in the Official Magazine because the end of the day we are the ones that read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The official mag is now aimed at our more "well heeled" fans. I havent bought it since Grant moved in but every now and again when I'm in WH Smith's In Glasgow I have a quick scan, and its as I expected, pony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misschief 24 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Expensive, superficial, full of ads, up its own arse - and my boys still make me buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 you mean the mag members and season ticket holders get in the post monthly? If so, i find it boring, same stuff, i only read it when bored or trying to find something out. Its free anyway. I sometimes read it but again.....itsa like a matchday programme but more pages and A4 Paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misschief 24 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Oh that one, never even look at it when it comes tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 The interviews with the players are usually worth a read, the past players and youth players articels are usually pretty good. But that is about as much as i read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippin 0 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 quite like the articles on Chelsea history , dont like the Chelsea girl thing , though thats mainly because i not thin enough to get a look in! but i agree its not worth the cash really dont read it cover to cover like i used to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 The Chelsea girl bit just proves how desperate they must be to sell the magazine - they have to put hot birds in it pippin, I think we can all safely assume you're just too damned sexy to get into the mag anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James 5,344 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Just got March's mag through the door, love the ad where the advertising house's for 2million. :thumbsdown: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
