I just love the footage of Winterburn utterley sh*tting himself when Di Canio lunges at him. Id also forgotten just how awful Keanes 'tackle' on Haarland was.

I will be very happy with it as long as she wears seductive clothing and gives the camera Nigella style suggestive looks. Im also off to hide.

I hate Liverpool fans more than any other set of fans in the world. They are utterley obnoxious and i want revenge. Plain and simple. After all only a Shirtburner could right something as self righteous as this -

Whilst im glad that Italy didnt get the gig (they dont deserve it ), there will be a massive threat of trouble in Poland - some of their fans are proper nutters.

The first Chelsea Cup Final for me like many other was the Full Members in 1986. What a day. I felt like we had won the European Cup afterwards! I didnt make the Zenith Data in 1990. The Luton semi in 94 was a great, great day. The two things that stand out for me are the male streaker with 2 mins to go go and the whole Chelsea end singing 'theres only one Kerry Dixon' as he left the pitch. The Final as i have mentioned on the FA Cup Final Man Utd vs Chelsea thread was quite simply the most painful football experience of my life. Dont get me started on Peacocks shot, because i will not stop. A horrid day. See the pic i posted on that thread btw. 97 on the other hand was magic and contained my all time favorite Chelsea moment. Im sure i dont need to spell it out for you. I didnt make the Carling Cup Final in 98 but was in Stockholm for the CWC Final. In fact part of me is still there at the airport waiting for a plane. A great, but very long day! I missed the 2000 semi againt the Jimmy Nails but was at the Final. A truly dreadful game but who cares. I missed the 2002 Cup Final and the 2005 Carling Cup but was there to see us beat the Gooners in Feb of this year. Cardiff wont be missed. Ive been to 2 Charity Shields - in 1997 where we lost on pens to the Mancs and in 2005 where the Drog mauled the Gunners. I said after that i would never go to another Charity Shield because they are simply glorified friendlies but if we are there at Wembley in August im sure i will think again.

If this is the new away shirt (which im not convinced it is) i am stunned that it has appeared on a Yank website before the normal fanfare and hullaballo on the Chelsea website. If they have done this before they shoudlve im sure they can expect a letter from some lawyers pretty soon. Oh, and its hideous.

lest we forget It's a long way to Fulham Broadway It's a long way to run It's a long way to Fulham Broadway and we'll be there before you

Well there was time in the 80s when i was sure chelsea had a 'only sign sh*te players' policy but i forgave them! anyway, we are digressing (apologies just!) another classic chelsea terrace anthem...(sort of) 'speedie, show us yer bum' (and was anyone there when he did ?) worth a try with Shev , what do you reckon ? hearing 'in the middle of the shed, tea bar, whitewall' etc recently at the sheff utd game bought back memories didnt it ? reminded me of being a little un and trying to peer over everyones shoulders

Fair enough, you are the expert after all ! Just listening to 'Simply The Best' as we speak!

well, you said it! like i said i didnt want to offend any forummers! ('billy boys' anyone ?!??!!!!!) Loz do you agree that whilst Rangers are certainly no angels they always seem to take the brunt of the sh*t, from what ive seen/heard Celtic fans are just as bad but it never seems to get the press.

alouette is brilliant and should get more airings, in fact iv think ive heard it more in boozers than i have at football grounds. get on the case just! other classic chelsea songs have to include 'the blue flag' (full version!) and of course 'celery' , have to admit ive never done 'bouncy' but it sounds f**king ace! non chelsea ? funniest i can remember was the grimsby fans in an fa cup game about ten years ago - 'We piss on your fish, yes we do, yes we do', ive always admired man utds 'giggs will tear you apart' but only because i love the joy division song, and i remember going to a Palace/Brighton game with my old man and laughing at the Palace fans singing 'we can see you holding hands', also Coventrys 'we've got Carlton Palmer he smokes marijurana' always made me laugh at lot more than it shouldve! And quite often i often find myself singing 'Nayim from the half way line'!!! best songs however, for me belong north of the border, at Ibrox. I would post the lyrics to 'Build My Gallows' but i wouldnt want to upset anyone , so i'll go for 'Follow Follow' . Spine chilling - i simply cannot wait for July. Though The Streets Be Broad Or Narrow, Then Follow We Will, Follow We Will, Follow We Will, Though The Streets Be Broad Or Narrow, Then Follow We Will, We Will Follow In The Footsteps Of Our Team, Follow Follow We Will Follow Rangers, Everywhere, Anywhere We Will Follow On, Dundee, Hamilton, even up to Aberdeen, Should They Go To Dublin We Will Follow On, For There's Not A Team Like The Glasgow Rangers, No Not One, And There Never Shall Be One, Celtic Know All About Their Troubles, We Will Fight Till The Day Is Done, For There's Not A Team Like The Glasgow Rangers, No Not One, And There Never Shall Be One, Follow Follow We Will Follow Rangers, Everywhere, Anywhere We Will Follow On, Dundee, Hamilton, even up to Aberdeen, Should They Go To Dublin We Will Follow On.

Easily my most painful memory as a Chelsea fan. I can still hear that shot from Peacock canon off the woodwork.

Not surprised about Drogs, Stevens and Ronaldo, but f**king Fabregas ? Please! Ronaldo will win it and the only surprise is that the FA havent nominated Henry and Giggs too. EDITED - They have nominated Giggs! Scholes is the other one too. Surprised Roy Keane isnt there.

Tell me about it Loz. We had a great weekend in sunny Manchester but leaving Picadilly Station yesterday just as the Blue Army arrived i almost had tears in my eyes and a lump in my throat, i couldnt belive what was happening - it was almost surreal. I hate anniversarys and most of all considering were i am going to be on May 19th, i hate women.

Thats reminded me Loz, ive still got to post my Stadium Tour pics - is there a suitable section in the CSR album for it ? Cant wait to see the footage of Tuesday Just.

Lets not start.

Funny thing was with i was under the impression that with Ledley back in the team, Spurs' defence is much better. They hardly concede any when he plays... 0-2 , 7 minutes gone. Has there ever been a bigger team of bottlers ?? I bet its all gone quiet at the Lane...

Too right. However, if Everton suddenly got to 3 Euro semis in 4 years and won Back to Back titles and signed 30 million strikers it would happen there as well. Guys, its part of the territory im afraid and something we are all going to have to get used to , and the more success we have, sadly the worse its gonna get.

There are 2 reasons why i feel Joses position is in serious risk 1 : Depsite his genius, Jose Mournho must be a nightmare to work with if you are his senior. Roman is tiring of his status and outbursts. 2 : Joses prescence is currently hampering Romans desire for Chelsea to be the the most popular football club in the world. I reckon step 1 of Romans blueprint was to start winning trophies. He quickly (and quite rightly) identifed we didnt have the man for the job in Claudio and sought after a man who would give us instant success come hell or high water, and boy did he get that man right. Step 2 i reckon was to start playing with style and to command ourselves in a fashion that make us popluar across the globe whilst still winning trophies. It is here that Jose doesnt fit in. Of course, i am being pie in the sky here. But i firmly belive that TSO will not be Chelsea manager in around 8 weeks time, even, ludicrously if we win the quad. Who knows what the upcoming few weeks hold for us all (including Jose) We are about to step onto the biggest rollercoaster ride of them all. And having been a chelsea fan now for appraching 25 years i call tell you that means its going to be some ride. Never a dull moment fellas, never a dull moment.

Im sure Chelsea v Valencia was drawn out first , im sure a mistake has been made here. I could sworn we were at home first. This suits me down to the ground, i want it as close as possible to the 2005 circumstances. I am getting almost psychopathic about this now. Jose might not want revenge. But i sure do. Its just those f**king fans i cant stand. Ive never bought into the '2nd leg at home is best' theory anyway, if the scores are close it brings its own pressures for the home team and for the away team the scoring of an away goal turns everything on its head. As we well know. edited - just checked the mousers website and we are down as home first, away 2nd, however the bbc has it the other way round. im sure we are at home first guys.

Just a bit. Ive waited two years for this.

havent seen them but i suspect they go along the lines of: cech 6 diarra 5 cole 6 terry 6 carvalho 6 essien 9 mikel 5 lampard 5 ballack 6 drogba 6 shevchenko 9

Its excatly what i wanted. Liverpool in the semi. First game at SB, 2nd game at Anfield. I want the first game to be 0-0. Im serious. I want us to win it there and beat the media darlings at 'Fortress Anfield' We owe them. I dont want to win 6-0 , i want to win 1-0 with a dodgy goal. Our players wont buy in the 'atmopshere' this time. Im serious, we are gonna f**k these f**kers.

someone else got a 2nd yellow card too i recall - was it Cashley ? Lets hope so!

Also I liked the fact that, unlike in the first game, the ref actually pulled Ayala up for his attempts to "tackle" players by ramming the point of his elbow into their temples
