AT LEAST CHELSEA ARE MAKING AN EFFORT

The FA’s Respect campaign, which urges players to accept decisions without arguing, has come under fire in recent weeks, but at least one club has responded in the desired manner. Last season Chelsea were ranked worst of all the Premier League clubs when it came to receiving yellow cards for dissent. This time they sit proudly on top of the good behaviour table. It just shows what you can do . . .

That's from yesterday's Sunday Times, which actually printed the table. Sadly it's not on the website.

Personally I'm really really surprised the media haven't made more of this fact.....

I'm sure you are. Much easier to propogate the myth that Chelsea players - and only Chelsea players, of course - constantly hound officials into changing decisions ... has this actually ever happened? Name one occasion where a referee has changed his mind after having his decision challenged by the players.

arsenal away to fulham couple of seasons ago. halsey gave fulham a pen, arsenal surrounded him and had a right moan up, halsey changes his mind.

it will all go for a burton as the games get more and more crucial, its good at the moment things are going our way on the pitch

wait till we hit a dip in form and things and decisions start going against us and we'll fly down that league

Here's a site that's worth looking at, regarding refereeing decisions:

Well well well B)

Cheslea football club good boys! who woulda thought that?? lol

Good news for sure.

Think this thread is about as much as we will hear on the matter

I think alot of the credit must go to Scolari, it seems his manner and the way that he deals with the press and the likes is reflecting on the players (just my opinion anyhow).
