Becasue when the new owners took on the club, we were debt free. Please try acknowledging this...

Why work with debt when you dont have to. What would you rather. going into a shop and paying for a bottle of milk do you prefer to pay it by cash, or do you prefer to put it on the card and take the hit on the interest and pay more for the pint?

Investing always takes money. I don't have access to Bluecos bank account so I don't know their situation. I am pretty sure the new SB would never be debt free. Someone here works in the financial world so would you enlighten us...

It’s AI

So you honestly think I just copy sh*te from ChatGPT? 😅 I posted weeks back couple of the things here which made a massive outburst for some reason. I wrote it is AI pretty clearly. You should give a bit more credit to a company worth around 46bn to think my drivel is from that.

I don't use it here because you told us not to. Simple as.

Chat told me it didnt want to argue with itself.

I think we were a different club before Roman. We were a tier below. What I think most fans would like is we don't drop a tier below but stay as a powerhouse and elevate that even..would you agree?

So when I counter all the massive outburst of unnecessary negativity towards them and try to make sense of their decisions I like to compare it to the most relevant era of the club (that I know the best as well). If I compared that to some other era or club even it is not as relevant. It gives context and I think it is the best comparison since most fans here probably agree Roman era of this club is its best in the clubs history.

And I agree the new owners are taking risks left and right. I have never denied that. They are venture capitalists. It is a part of their game. Is it good to have these types as owners as opposed to a guy like Roman, probably not BUT THAT IS THE REALITY. Accept the reality and play with the cards you are dealt with. What else can you do? Just be negative the entire time?

If you were drowning miles out at sea would you try to swim to shore or let it happen because it is the reality and simply the cards you were dealt?

Not a relevant analogy in my eyes. If you see this (new owners and their actions) as the potential end of the club then yes but I don't. And you have much bigger effect on your survival in that given situation than as a fan on the club...

But you're telling us how to react and feel on every post.

So your next argument is don't complain because we can't change anything? We stopped the Super league by complaining.

Not telling anyone how to feel. Maybe just some level-headedness on the current situation. But no one has to change their feelings on anything as I can also state my sh*te here as well. I think it is only fair.

I think it helped in the Super League case. If Super League was planned to perfection I think it could have gone through. I watched a documentary on that with Ceferin (opposing party) and it didn't seem they had everything planned. And I am glad they didn't.

Me personally if my contact with the club is this forum/their website/shop I am pretty sure it doesn't have any effect. Many here might have a different position or view on this. As a bulk most Chelsea fans are not going to Chelsea games on a regular which limits their capability for effect I think.

I never told anyone not to use it? Just that it would be frowned upon in a forum setting and quite obvious!

You were so proud of using it for your posts here, what changed?

You didn't but the message to me was pretty clear so I decided to play with that. I think I have enough 'problems' in this place already 🤣.

Being proud....that is a stretch but I like the way it can produce info pretty quickly which I used then, with the disclaimer. Going through 10 articles from the past vs check what GPT gives me in 5 secs is pretty good shout.

And to trust ones own memory is a massive mistake. Time takes a toll.

Is someone use GPT tools to make post on the forum?

You are good at quoting. Two quotes per post.

Evissy was using Chatsh*t.gpt but apparently he has stopped now

I used it for 2-3 posts for context which in that case was pretty good and informative. And it said this part is from ChatGPT. However everyone whose used that saw that anyway.

If you don't know what it is or what it does it is on you basically. It is 2025.

A mate of mine used chatGPT to reply to his girlfriend, she clocked it and replied using it... Cue essay's back and forth between them. Perhaps Maresca could use it for press conferences.

I was listening to a podcast today and they were basically saying that the area that Chelsea needed to improve was in the goals department. We scored 60-odd goals and we need to get near 80 goals.

Based on the Palace performance, it’s hard to see that happening. Plus if Jackson leaves, that will remove 15 goals. I don’t see Pedro and Delap getting loads of goals either.

Hi Friend

Okay, I'm onto you 😄 — I know you've been using ChatGPT! Your texts suddenly got way too polished, and that oddly specific trivia you dropped the other day? Yeah, classic chatbot move.

No judgment though — I use it too. Honestly, it's kind of genius. Let's just agree we're both getting a little AI assistance here and there. Friends don't let friends write boring messages, right?

Catch you soon!

from your Friend.

What the f**k are you on about?! 🤣🤣

I mostly use it at work for specific tasks that would take ages to do otherwise.

In here I've used it for the couple of times I just mentioned that are visibly GPT.

So everything here is or should be banter? If it is I don't understand what banter means although AI just broke it down there perfectly. 🤔

@evissy fighting with ChatGPT and CoPilot is forum history

I would not personally use it for a forum, but as long as you write your own thoughts and responses to the GPT and then have those thoughts articulated better, I see no issues with it.

I think the quality of the front players have improved however what’s stayed the same is the Manager same boring nonsense football.

Top of the league baby!

Good win but god that was pedestrian and slow at times. My Nan with arthritis can move quicker than how we move the ball.

You can see how we will struggle a lot this season with this grandma speed football. And it doesn’t help our forwards as the opposition can get in their defence shape by the time we move the ball forward so they have very little space to work in.

Team will know we won’t move quickly!!
