Chelsea made it three wins from three with Drogba and Malouda adding to their impressive early tallies with another goal each. Stoke fans failed to take their whole allocation, with plenty of empty seats in their end, at fifty quid a pop and getting drubbed 7-0 at the end of last season you can’t really [...]
Fabio Borini gave us the lead as a young blues side dominated Everton before a second-half equaliser undid all the good work. Everton arrived as part of the new reserve format that means the stiffs will play the usual regional league home and away but will also play all the club’s in the northern section either at home or away.
Continue reading …Our record for August ended with us scoring fourteen goals and conceding zero. If that record continues until the end of the season, I think that we would all be happy. Goals from Florent Malouda, his fourth already this season and a Didier Drogba penalty notched us up another three points against Stoke City, to [...]

Monday Night Football is a preposterously entertaining as ever and not much has changed. Andy Gray still pisses about with a complex computer tactics screen whenever the need does or doesn’t arise, highlighting incidents and cross examining them like a [...]
Continue reading …Chelsea welcome Stoke City to Stamford Bridge for Saturday’s Premier League game, safe in the knowledge that the season has started in the best possible way. Two league games played, two 6-0 wins, and – along with QPR and Torquay – one of just three sides in English football to have recorded maximum points from [...]

With Chelsea being in pot one, we couldn’t have been drawn against any of the other major players, although we could have drawn José Mourinho’s new club, Real Madrid, as they were in pot two. The draw seems as [...]
Continue reading …CFCnet has to apologise for the late arrival of this blog post. In our defence, last weekend saw a momentous event in the history of Chelsea FC. No, not our exceptional result against Wigan but rather that one of Chelsea’s most famous fans saw fit to host his 50th birthday bash in, of all places, Merseyside.
Continue reading …The Reserves got their season off to a score drawing start last night when we hosted Everton at Stamford Bridge. Our side included Fabio Borini, Michael Mancienne and 15 year old Nathaniel Chalobah. It was in fact Fabio Borini who scored first after Everton had come close within the first minute. Chelsea lead after the [...]

Even the footballing world [...]

Continue reading …Chelsea hit their opponents for six for the second successive week as they trounced a demoralised Wigan side by the same scoreline with which West Brom had been dispatched the previous Saturday.
Continue reading …Two games, two wins, twelve goals! Who really in their wildest dreams would have thought that our first two games would have ended 6-0 and 0-6? After Carlo Ancelotti’s Wigan warning on Friday, Chelsea swept in like a tornado and ripped into Wigan. Warnings like that will do for me every week, Carlo. Goals from [...]
Continue reading …Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti voiced his support for the Blues controversial striker Nicolas Anelka, in the wake of the players 18 match ban from the French Football Federation.
