Makelele's Ukelele

I hate this competition. Weve been the better team in that half, controlled the majority of the play, and then as usual get denied our just reward. Definite penalty, definite f**king usual cheating uefa sh*ts.

Totally agree, Bridge gave us good service while he was a blue, and did score the goal that made me lose my voice for a week lol .While he's been naieve in his choice of girlfriend, i dont think he's conducted himself in any way which deserves a bad reception on saturday. I personally think it would reflect better on Chelsea if we could applaud him and JT at the start of saturdays match - and just save the hate for Mr rope burn neck, Had-A-Guy-Whore, and any other Team Bridge stirrers.

1. Man City (h) W 3-1 2. West Ham (h) W 2-0 3. Blackburn (a) W 2-1 4. Portsmouth (a) W 3-1 5. Aston Villa (h) W 2-1 6. Man Utd (a) D 1-1 7. Bolton (h) W 3-1 8. Tottenham (a) W 2-1 9. Stoke (h) W 2-0 10. Liverpool (a) W 2-1 11. Wigan (h)W 3-0

I remember the trip back from Wembley in 94 being very miserable indeed. Def shed a few tears when we clinched the league at Bolton - just couldnt believe we`d finally done it after all the years of heartache. The worst feeling ever as a Chelsea fan tho has to be losing the CL final when we`d totally bossed the second half and extra time. Robbed robbed robbed.

Yeah i`ve got unhappy memories of that game, it was a Coca Cola Cup Quarter Final and the end score was 3-1 to palace. Chris Coleman scored the first i believe which trickled over the line. Andy Townsend made it 1-1 with a cracking drive, and i subsequently made myself very unpopular by jumping about 3ft and punching the air in the home end (i went with 3 mates who were all Palace). Then i think it was a couple of palaces kids who got the second and third goals. I was gutted because we had a good team at the time with Le Saux on one wing and Graham Stuart on the other. We were definitely favourites to win that game. Dont think it was long after that game that Porterfield got the sack but my memory may be playing tricks

Just hope we dont take any style tips from the Everton camp, that black and pink away effort of theirs would look more at home in the Blue Oyster Bar

Thats the most animated i`ve ever been watching a Wigan v y*ds match. Shame Wigan couldnt make it 10/10

Think most of my faves have been covered already but i`d like to add Robot Chicken and Invader Zim to the mix. Both very very funny and underrated.

Glad it was a good night - although really and truly - could it have been anything other lol ? Looks like the O2 was packed to the rafters, i imagine the atmosphere must have been electric. Guess i`ll just have to wait until the next round of tours (and hope that they let Nitzer on board again too ) Would love Alan to join up with the band again - those were the halcyon days without doubt !

I think i speak for the whole of humanity when i say i couldnt give a flying sh*t what Gallagher thinks. He and his monobrowed inbred brother are two of the biggest f**ksticks ever pissed into the genepool.

I think a good case in point is Jimmy Floyd. I can remember hating his guts as a Leeds player, especially when he came to the Bridge for that dire 0-0 when Leeds had two sent off before half time. Yet throw in a blue shirt , and a few goals and i cant help but like the guy. Even if he is just a fat Eddie Murphy lol

I`d like to officially change my vote to `The Invention of Lying`. Just watched 3/4 of it but couldnt face anymore. Totally , utterly, unequivocally sh*t.

def a great result for us, and i hope the boys kick on and make the gap 4 points by the close of play. Thought it was a bit of a joke making Rodwell man of the match for the 5 minutes he played tho. Great goal, but thought that decison was a bit insulting to the likes of Pienaar who really put in the miles today.

Nice to see two fellow Depeche fans on the board. Hope you have a great time at the gig bjd, cant believe Nitzer Ebb are supporting too - thats amazing. I had the pleasure of seeing Doug McCarthy and co at a gig in Folkestone many years ago. Fantastic group - and their new album is almost back to the level of Belief and Ebbhead. Enjoy

Nothing comes close

Just watched the Bayern - Fiorentina Debacle on Sky +. Oh my god ! how is Ovrebo allowed to continue to officiate - he clearly has two glass eyes. What annoys me more than anything else though is the fact that the football world are only now starting to seriously question this guys ability to referee. I feel very sorry for Fiorentina, and UEFA have to be culpable for letting this goon continue to wreak havoc. How long before a team refuse to take part in a match that he`s scheduled to ref ?

I was at the library to watch that one and remember a huge amount of smug gooners thinking Henry`s quick free kick was clever and funny. One word : Karma. Three additional words : suck it up :D Good work ref

I'd have to agree with your top two. Both those goals were absolutely immense

Lol, cheers my good man. Nice to know my stupidity is appreciated

Might be worth double checking the list, he may be refereeing under his Mr Magoo pseudonym.

On a serious note it has to be Zhirkov, he is a classy player and will improve with more game time. On a tongue in cheek note - does this thread need to be changed in light of the latest tabloid story. I suggest calling it `Who will Ash fill in for the rest of the season ?` :P

Wenger or Ferguson would make good Sun reporters cos they constantly `make their excuses and leave` :D

Totally agree, there seems to be a distinct anti Chelsea campaign in the gutter press at the moment. I`d be interested to know which football games the editor of the Sun/NOTW attends...

I think the Co-op modes add a lot to the experience, probably not quite as much fun as a 1 player. I've got Army of One gathering dust at the moment cos i cant stop playing L4D2
