We won in in '97 then again in '07. Anyone notice a trend forming here?

It will be a tough fight not matter who Wenger puts on the field.

KTBFFH!

Match day.Ten o clock train from Hemel then on the beer until full lol.We have had a marvellous season and this would really cap it off.The highlights for me were stopping Spuds winning the title and knocking them out in the semi but the double would be nice for JT to go out with.Scorchio today so drink plenty.....UP THE CHELS !!!!!

Ospina in goal for them according to the newspapers...

The day is finally here, I'm excited nervous and wish we didn't have to wait until 5.30 but so be it. Come on you Blues!

We have the classiest manager in the country. I hope the Conte era is a long,happy and successful one. The way he deals with the media only enhances Chelsea's reputation-  if Jose were facing Wenger today instead the build up would have been full of petulance, aggression, mockery and childishness.

I really hope so mate!

GAMEDAY!!! COME ON CHELS!!

This title has to be won for JT and Steve Holland.

Cup Final Day is here.

Come on Chelsea.

Blue is the colour.

Take the usual 1-0 Chelsea win,of course.

JT on for a few minutes at the end when we're a few goals ahead.

 

COYB!

Final crystal ball prediction for the season...and it's a good one! The ball reckons the cup is ours:

 

Chelsea (4-2-4): Eduardo; Moses, Azpilicueta, Cahill (c), Alonso; Kanté, Fàbregas; Kenedy, Costa, Batshuayi, Hazard

Subs: Baxter, Aina, Luiz, Zouma, Aké, Mati?, Pedro

 

Prediction: Arsenal 0-2 Chelsea (Batshuayi, Costa)

 

Even with Eduardo and Kenedy starting, Arséne Wenger's men are no match as the strikers find the net to win at Wembley. Of course, the ball has been wrong on many occasions (and almost certainly will be again with its team prediction)...but fingers crossed it has predicted the right team to win. Any score, any way, I don't care. I want the double. We want the double. Good luck, lads. Go get it. CFC!

I can't be the only one wondering why you ignored 1967.

Cech allegedly gutted by being dropped. If Begovic leaves this summer we should try to bring Petr back to Chelsea 

More blue sweets than red in my sweet jar, omen ?

 

It's been a long day already and it's barely 11.30am !

Come on Chelsea!!

Don't worry, I've got this. Not taking a win for granted, I've decided not to drink my tea from my 2009/2010 Double mug, but from my Champions mug from that season.

Sing and enjoy!

I'm starting my build up by watching the 1970 final again. Come on Chelsea.

the 1970 final is renown for a number of outrageous physical challenges and the leniency of the refereeing. I think Eddie Macreadie's two-footed flying challenge at head height on Billy Bremner was among the best

the other things I've loved this morning are that Leeds wore their Wembley shirts again for the replay - 18 days after the first match. Obviously couldn't be bothered to get new ones.

there's a moment when Peter Bonetti takes a drink from the Leeds physio's magic sponge and then washes his bare, muddied hands with it - goal keepers playing without gloves

and of course despite the physical nature of this game, no one rolls around in fake agony, no one surrounds the referee to dispute a decision and no one is wearing day-glo orange/lime green boots  

real football, oh the nostalgia of it all...

It's a bit upsetting that you think a lucky sofa can contribute more than my choice of mugs, but I have to accept supporting Chelsea is a fine art

all depends on whether your mugs have as good a track record as xfactor's sofa, have you any statistics?

God I'm so nervous and it's only after 1pm. Time is going slowly today.
