Posted April 22, 201312 yr Clattenberg has been given control of this match. Disgraceful. As if we haven't been cheated out enough as of late. The FA decide to hand the job to this prick who has quite clearly wronged us against Man Utd and will have a massive chip on his shoulder from the Mikel saga. Expect controversial decisions and fury.

April 22, 201312 yr If anyone sees a marauding female Blue at this match it will be my little girl....Shes partying with some Imperial drinkers for her 26th birthday celeb.....Woh betide.....I hope the result is right
April 22, 201312 yr To be honest, I think this is probably a good thing for us. Â The whole build up will be about how bad he was the last time he reffed a Chelsea match, so there will be tonnes of pressure on him to not give a bad decision against us...
April 22, 201312 yr No it won't. The build up will be about how evil Chelsea accused him of racism. No-one whatsoever will be on our side.

April 22, 201312 yr He knows he will be monitered very closely....Whatever his thoughts on LAST TIME may be, it will not reflect in his actions....
April 22, 201312 yr Not the best move from the Premier League. Unfair on both us and Clattenburg to be honest with both parties being put in a very difficult situation. No matter what Clattenburg does on the day he will be viewed as either too lenient towards us or to harsh with an axe to grind - a total no win situation. For CFC? Players need to fully control their emotions, treat him with respect (though many will say he doesn't deserve it) but most of all our players must get the job done and get three points - nothing else matters in terms of the outcome of this match.
April 22, 201312 yr Surely the sensible thing would be to leave it until early next season for him to ref us again? Â Not at the tail end when everything's getting more tense? Â
April 22, 201312 yr He knows he will be monitered very closely....Whatever his thoughts on LAST TIME may be, it will not reflect in his actions.... Â If he f**ks this up I'll be waiting for him with a gigantic celery. Â Â (How come we don't have any smiley with a celery?)
April 22, 201312 yr Don't think he'll make any decisions simply because of the reactions from the Manu game, hope so at least. Interesting game at the Liberty but surely 3 points is a must.
April 22, 201312 yr We shouldn't be thinking about referees. We should be concentrating on beating them. 3 points is a must after that horrible game.
April 22, 201312 yr No point in even FSW showing up either, if the players don't know what's needed by now then they never will. Â It's about guts, glory and winning now not tactics and suspicious substitutions. Â We need 3 points no messing around, if we grab a point, just as well grab a pint because any hope of 4th will be gone.....and FSW with it.
April 22, 201312 yr should be a win, anything else means no top 4 probably  bad choice of referee, bad choice of striker and subs by bad choice of manager ? hope not
April 22, 201312 yr Well we've failed to beat them 3 times this season, scoring onyl 1 goal in the process. I wouldn't bet on a win...
April 22, 201312 yr They do seem to be on the beach already so hopefully we will win. Much better chance if Eva picks the team and FSW stays in the pie shop.

Â Â Could be worse. Clattenberg could have been reintroduced to us in the game the weekend after.
April 23, 201312 yr We shouldn't be thinking about referees. We should be concentrating on beating them. 3 points is a must after that horrible game. Bang on right. No one to blame but ourselves for where we are now. Roman from to the top down.
April 23, 201312 yr Nothing we could do about the referee. Â let's hope we put 3 past them before Clatternburg start sending our players off. The referees will only target us more if we get into the situation where referee A, B, C are not allowed to ref our games.
April 23, 201312 yr Possibly going to be the most hostile reception for an official ever? Â Swansea don't really have anything to play for now which is maybe our main advantage, we really do just have to be a bit gung ho in this match and try to rack up a decent win because who knows if the top four spot might come down to goal difference.Â
April 23, 201312 yr It would be better if we ignored the ref. Even if we give him hell for him being so biased against us against Man Utd, the media will make it out to be because of the racism affair.
