I always think JT looks a little uneasy if Ashley Cole is having an off game. As long as the Community Shield was just an off game for Cole, I think JT will be good for a while yet with Ashley Coles pace beside him.

It pays to exercise caution....I did not use mine or my wife's season ticket for the CL game against Inter at the Bridge last season. I let a friend who is generally trustworthy purchase the tickets and thought no more of it. It turned out he was let down by whoever he was going with and did not attend, he then passed them on to another friend who was supposed to sell them on and they ended up with a tout. I had some explaining to do at the next home game....the people sitting in front of me, had an Inter fan land on them, after being punched for jumping up and punching the air when Inter scored. It has to be said though...in agreement with Geezer, they are so blatant outside the ground, they could be taken for a legitimate source.

This story seems to have been removed from several websites in the last couple of hours, maybe the denials from Santos make them feel the legs have been taken out of the story.

Have you thought about a gaming PC...the spec on those things is frightening, as well as the cost...Which has always put me off?

Would agree with the above 100% You may well ending up paying the same price as you would off of a tout, but, get the tickets from an official source, as these packages tend to sell out a lot slower. Plus you have the added benefit of bonus points from your partner, for, looking like a big spender. Viagogo may be another option....you will need to buy a membership first and they will sell out quick for this game. In fact there is a hospitality package on there now...be prepared to sit down before you check the price though: http://www.viagogo.co.uk/chelseafc I asked my wife if I should sell our season tickets on Viagogo and take a match day package for her Birthday present, but, she much prefers screaming at the away fans through a mouthful of Cornish pasty.

I think the below quote from the lady in question may not end the moral debate, but, gives conclusive evidence that Crouchy may not be the sharpest when it comes to closing a deal... "In the taxi we discussed again how much it would cost for sex. I usually charge a thousand Euros for a night. Peter said he didn't want an entire night, just an hour, because he wanted to get back to his friends. But we agreed on 1,000 Euros (£829). "

How often do you need to upgrade a PC to ensure it's got enough crunch to play the latest and greatest games?

Maybe not a virgin, but, paying substantially less then the £800.00 reported by the "News" of the World who decided to run a 5 page spread!

Does make you wonder what goes though their heads sometimes. Jonathan Ross: "Where do you think you would be today if you hadn't discovered football" Crouch: "A virgin"

Am wondering if anyone else has problems with the PS3 online? I have a laptop and a PC on a wireless network with no issues, but, my sons PS3 which is in the room next to the wireless router drops its connection frequently. I have the same problem with an itouch, but, expected this because of the frequency the itouch uses.

I guess the press are happy to continue the rumours until a statement is put out there by the man himself to quash or confirm, however, I doubt if Ash is in any great rush to speak to the media based on the recent pounding he has received at their hands. Will be interesting to see how he performs this afternoon.

The Aqueduct?

Damn it...I'll just have to take my mouth organ again!

Have to agree with this...I don't think anyone ever looked to Cole for a well put together or diplomatic interview. Unfortunately, he has put his foot in it with these clumsy comments and fed a fevered media, who cannot wait to print these kind of comments, knowing the reaction they will get from Chelsea fans.

complete adoration by the fans must count for something....will he get the same kind of adulation he received at Chelsea any where else?

I second that Didn't realise I actually miss Mikel as well!

Conor Clifford for me as well....first team not included. I think Nathaniel Chalobah deserves a pat on the back as well for holding his own at the age of fifteen.

Must agree about Di Santo, I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt, but I have not seen anything from him previously that makes me think he can fit into our squad anywhere.

Started replying to my own posts...time to go to bed.

I must admit I find Wembley a nightmare logistically. After the the FA cup semi and final it is lower down on my list....opting for a couple of friendlies, starting with Palace tomorrow.

Good point about Messi in the CL...didn't Bossy have to play LB that night due to Ashley Cole being out?

As much as I am an admirer of Bossy, I thought Ivanovic was one of our strongest players last season. I am thinking the competition will be stiff for RB in the forthcoming season. If there is a way to fit them both in the squad I would welcome it.

The pennies finally dropped...you have to bear with me these days, a bit slow of the mark.

No sarcasm in my post meant every word cheese on toast is not the same without it...I love it get through bottles of the stuff....even tried a couple of splashes in a Guiness after one too many (wouldnt recommend it).

My favourite...transforms cheese on toast into fine cuisine.
