Chelsea fans wanted for ITV4 football debate show pilot
Dear Tom Day, Could you please find out who at ITV thought that a great presenter would be Adrian Chiles, and who thinks that Andy Townsend, Jim Beglin and Craig Burley are good choices as co-commentators?! Clive Tyldsley is taxing enough, so to put him with one of those 3 morons is pure overkill. When Chiles shuts up and lets the pundits in the studio talk, its ok. Can't be any worse than Shearers MOTD analysis which entirely consists of counting the number of players in the opponents half. "look at all those players! 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5". Nice one Alan. As for your debating show, I'm sure whatever the topic is, it will eventually lead to Terry/Cole getting bashed, people comparing footballers to olympians and calls for Terry to be banned. The usual. Kind Regards, Adam.

Hazard penalties
As much as I hate to agree with captain hypocrite, Tony Pulis, he's got a point... 3 match ban if booked for diving would stop it completely. Would only be fair if debatable decisions could be appealed, but for blatant Suarez-esque dives, it would be perfect. Obviously not going to happen because the PL/FA are as incompetent it gets. Would be nice though

Hazard penalties
Wrong wrong wrong. Whether you like it or not, if there is contact in the box and the player goes down, it's a penalty. It's up to the ref to decide if there was enough contact to justify a penalty. It might be wrong and extremely unsporting but players are encouraged to go down if they get clipped by the opponent. To be fair, I don't think diving is as big of a problem as people make out. Suarez is in a league of his own because he is the one that does it on a regular basis. Of course you get the occasional idiot with a shocking dive... Young, Bale, Branna.. etc, but they tend to be one-offs. Only 4 players have been booked for simulation twice since the beginning of the 09/10 season.. one is obviously the racist diplomat himself, while two others are Hernandez and Eboue, can't remember the other one. Definitely think Suarez is the reason Hazard didn't get a pen the other day though, that big toothed prick has put diving in the minds of all the officials.

Hazard penalties
There's a difference between going down easily and diving. Hazard goes down easily when contact is made, Suarez... well... he takes it to his own pathetic level.

John Obi Mikel Appreciation Thread
Surprised he hasn't been given a penalty when a game is over, will be a bit of a legacy if he never scores though. Don't do it John!

John Terry Retires from International Football
On a slighlty unrelated matter, I just choked on my pasta when I saw that Shelvey had been called up for England. As you were.

John Obi Mikel Appreciation Thread
Hasn't put a foot wrong since his balls up against Juve. He's becoming more important every week.

Something for Didier
That is quality! Great effort! And thanks for editing my message, looking back, I don't think calling him the 'rapist of Arsenal' was very appropriate ::clap2:: ::clap2::

MOTM vs Norwich (H)
Gutted for Oscar, he's been superb in every game he's played so far, but Mata has been even better.
-
Ash & twitter
Got blocked by him ages ago, might have referred to how he's a woman beating w**ker. An all-round c**t.

Nordsjaelland v Chelsea (CL) 2/10/12 KO 19:45 BST
Don't understand why JT is being rested when he has a ban coming up... Very sceptical of this 11 tbh, hope Lamps and Rami in midfield isn't a car crash.
-
Ballack retires
Can't think of many players with a better technique than Ballack. Sublime player. Thrilled that he played for us.
-
Everything that Mata's
Agree with bluelion, can't remember a more likeable player since Zola. Top man.

Contract Issues
Cole will be 33 in 14 months so can sort of understand why the club have stalled, but he definitely deserves another 2 years. On their day, Marcelo and Coentrao are absolutely unbeatable, but they aren't able to do that week in week out like Ash. Still the best LB on the planet.
-
Ramires
I reckon that because of the whole Lamps v AVB fiasco, RdM will play Lamps far more than he should to avoid a rift. Hope I'm wrong, but it's up to Frank to realise that he is not up to 50+ games a season anymore. Look how well Scholes is still doing, because Fergus hasn't overplayed him.

Need New TV Show
YES. Recently started season 3. Season 2 was absolutely amazing.

Need New TV Show
Haha sorry, nothing personal. Now theres a new series of Homeland, The Mentalist and Big Bang Theory out, I'm back to liking America
-
Need New TV Show
Try and watch that without cringing and hating America. It's just wrong. 1000 likes to 70000 dislikes says it all really.
-
Ramires
Has barely put a foot wrong at CM. He and Mikel work beautifully together. Sheer class.
-
MOTM vs Arsenal
Voted Rambo, but Mata, Mikel, Terry, Cech and Oscar were all excellent too. Everyone had a good game, maybe apart from Luiz who was very rash at times and his dive was pretty embarrassing. Other than that, he was pretty solid.

Platini pushing for winter World Cup
Really don't care either way, but I'm happy to go against anything that f**ktard Platini says.

John Terry Retires from International Football
Andy Jacobs Absolutely love how he manages to sneak in a quick dig at AVB every day. Always starts with "I don't mean to go on about him, but...."
-
FA moral high ground grubbed by the Ferdinands
John Terry will not be sacked and will not lose his captaincy. End of story. Bruce Buck (Can't believe I'm about to give him some credit) has backed him all the way through this, and even gave a character statement in court. He knows how much Chelsea means to John Terry and how much John Terry means to Chelsea. Plus, if we were to be stripped of his captaincy, we would have to sing 'One Chelsea captain' as well as 'One England captain' and that would just be silly.

Hawksbee & Jacobs is brilliant, and Andy Goldsteins sport bar is decent, but the rest is complete and utter pigsh*t.
