End Of The Road

[Fulham Broadway 17,306]

Well, all we can hope for now is the 'DOUBLE'. Grant and Thatcher to both die on the same day. April Fools day would be good.

I don't think the players can take much blame tbh. Yes the passing has been attrocious, but there hasn't been any inspiration, and fuck knows whats been going on in training. Clarke and Ten Cats might know their football, but they cant inspire like the previous manager.

And it's no good looking to Grant on the sidelines for anything, stood there staring, arms folded, like a paedophile at a kids sports day.

The Jewish Jobs for the Boys Club that is intent on taking the money needs to realise that fans loyalty only stretches so far.

2008, the year we, Chelsea FC, had a hand on two cups just to fling them away because of some greedy no nothing charlatan, grasping his £4.5 million a year of our admission, pretending to be a manager.

Chink of light? I notice William Hill have him as 2-5 on to be gone by the end of the season

[Drogba11CFC 108]

Really? I'd do it myself. Buy up several adult magazines from a newsagent and send them to Mr. A. Grant.

[bigbluewillie 1,930]

Lets face it, After this latest debacle, If Roman doesnt sack the cunt then he is clearly treating us, the fans, as the peasants that he obviously thinks we are.

He himself has made a major, major fuck up with this appointment. No one forced Grant on him, He was a worthless nobody before he was engineered into a position at Pompey, For whatever reason, Abramovich had clearly lost the plot when he thought that this wanker would be the natural successor to Jose. Kenyon and Buck should also fall on their sword, They should have badgered Abramovich to change his mind for the good of the club but they never, They bit their lip and carried on taking the wedge as all natural parasites go. Kenyon has an excuse anyway, He's only in it for the money anyway. Buck constantly states that he is a long time blue, If thats the case why did he keep his mouth shut??

I'm not going to go down the "I told you so route" But on the last website I posted after our first five games, plus the pre-season, that things werent right, didnt seem right, No atitude from the team, every game was a chore and from certain circles I pretty much got shouted down for my comments. Looking back, I reckon Grant influence in the background clearly must have had an unstable effect on the squad in general, and who can blame them?

Months ago, "Fulham Broadway" labelled Grant a Charlatan, And I think that sums him up perfectly. His face doesnt fit down the Bridge, simple as that, And if the fans dont let him have it with both barrels against Derby then they aint worth a fuck in my eyes.

All in all, I'm taking it quite well really :censored:

I think you'll find that the gloryhunters and 'nouveaux riche' of Chelsea fans started in 1990 when Thatcher(hope she dies soon) made football fashionable after Hillsborough by introducing all seater stadiums and CCTV inside grounds to combat the hooligans.Football then became a buisness,rather than a sport as it should be with the introduction of The Premiership funded by another money grabbing ponce,Rupert Murdoch

Before the 1990's,a middleclass hooray would'nt touch Chelsea football club with a barge pole as Chelsea has always been a 'working man's club'.Now we have the middleclass Chelsea fan everywhere.Cunts that don't know the first thing about football,they too are the cunts that are ruining the club.Also the tourists that One Bar mentioned,who stuff their faces in poncy restaraunts,rather than mingling with the real working class Chelsea fan in the Pubs on the Fulham and King's roads.

They simply don't give a fuck about us and will leave us to rot if/when the sad spectre of relagation ever dawns upon us.

I just want my Chelsea back.Is that asking too much?

Agree with most of that, but to be fair it isnt just about what happened to Chelsea is it? that was football all over really. Thatcher did everything possible to take the passion out of the game and without the passion, you lose the hardcore fans. Yeah ok, the crowd trouble wasnt to her taste, but thats because supporters used to give a shit - take that out of the equation and what does it leave us with? Bland, sanitised grounds full of bland, unemotional fuckwits.

[misschief 24]

Whilst I agree Grant doesn't seem to be cutting it at the moment I feel Roman is to blame for his sanctioning of transfers this season.

We were damn close to signing the best right back in the world Dani Alves...we got Belletti who has been good but goes missing in the big games.

Ben Haim, Sidwell, Pizarro all not up to it - almost journeymen.

Malouda - don't get me started.

Anelka - great but the system doesn't suit him.

Ivanovic and di Santo not played yet and probably won't this season.

I wonder what the signings will be like in the summer?

Cant have it both ways. Roman was slated for not handing over money in January so he cant be slated when he sanctions transfers as well. Fact is, Jose was not a master in the transfer market, bought us some talent, no question there, but my god he bought us a lot of shit in his time as well. Was it just Roman who put his foot down over Alves or was that agreed? they were trying to take the right royal piss out of us over him and we had to have a cut off point. Belletti was by no means Jose's worst decision.

Someone said to me the other day that Jose inherited a much better squad than Grant and I think Id have to agree with that overall, but the fact is, it doesnt really matter - Grant is not good enough. FACT. As for Roman, it would seem he wouldnt know a good manager if he was bitten on the arse by one.

Agree with most points misschief.But the football violence had nothing to do with football in general.The football ground was used as a platform for the working class football fan to vent their anger on the way Thatcher undermined them and their families.The last straw is when she drove the real,passionate football fan out by making football fashionable,thus the ultimate knife in the back to price out the real football fan that cares about their club.It was Thatcherite cunts like Bates that were her allies in pricing out the football fan.

We simply did'nt stand a chance.

[Fulham Broadway 17,306]

Mind you Bates with his electric fence -...maybe if we had electric seats now it'd get some of the comatose fuckers on their feet....

Agree with pretty much all of that. Jose made some very poor signings, and he did inherit a better squad than what Grant has, but Grant plainly isn't going to be good enough.

We will get a real sense of Roman by watching how he deals with the current situation! He got rid of Ranieri to bring in a better manager. We had great success. For whatever reason that relationship broke up! Roman has made a massive balls up by giving Grant the job. Now we see what sort of person Roman is, will he get rid of Grant? And if so who does he bring in?

and now abramovich is reported as being "incensed" at the barnsley result, well let's see how much!

Knowing Roman and his supposedly 'ruthless streak',he'll be threatning the whole team with their P45's,or a visit to one of his Siberian saltmines,when there's only one person he should be unleashing his ruthless streak on.That's if he really has one.

dont forget jose was only given a very limited transfer fee....

imagine if abramovich were to give jose what he wants........

Are you kidding me? limited transfer fee? How much money did he spend before Roman tightened the purse strings?

Lol, Jose spent a fortune on players in his time thats for sure, especially that first season where big big money was payed for people like Carvalho, Ferreira, Drogba ect...

Jose did something special with our club. And now i want to see a proper manager come in and take over where Jose left off, we need to have someone who knows how to manage a big club with big players and develop talents into big players.

Absolutely, Jose did something very special - faults and all he remains the best manager we've ever had - sadly Grant's slowly dismantled all the hard work Jose put in and thats reflected not only in recent poor form and embarrassing results but also in the players faces and body language. The 'team' who never knew when they were beaten, now look a shadow of their former selves. Whether that 'team' still exists and can be resurrected will be down to Roman. Either he appoints someone who knows how to really manage a squad in our position or we'll be losing a lot more than just the odd FA cup tie.
