HOME RECORD COST US

HOME RECORD COST US thumbnail

Last Sunday’s draw with Bolton means that it is now four years and three months since our last home defeat in the league. That means that the rest of the big four have had at least four goes each at breaching fortress Stamford Bridge and all failed.
Add to that the tens of cup games, both […]


THE TROUBLE WITH AVRAM

THE TROUBLE WITH AVRAM thumbnail

If there was ever a one single hard act to follow in football; Jose Mourinho at Chelsea was the one. Three years of unparalleled success on the field, a media darling, massively loyal players and an adoring support from the fans, Superman himself would have found it difficult to follow in his steps.
Enter charisma-free Avram […]

I have held my council since the 27th February when I posted my open letter to Peter Kenyon on this site, coming as it was after the most dismal month in Chelsea’s history in many a year. I have done so mainly because in all honesty I cannot make out what is going on at […]

AN OPEN LETTER TO PETER KENYON thumbnail

Dear Mr. Kenyon,
Excuse me if this letter is not really your field of competence within Chelsea football club, but to the ordinary fan it is difficult to make heads or tails of who is really in charge at Chelsea.
I am a Maltese supporter since 1966, since the day Chelsea went top of the league in […]

ROMAN, NOW GET US A REAL MANAGER thumbnail

Roman, Peter, Bruce, Eugene or whoever runs Chelsea. It’s time call an end to the joke. Can we have a real manager now please?
If you didn’t see this coming then you don’t know a thing about football. 1 1 0 0 1. That’s not binary code. It’s the number of goals we have scored in […]


THIRD IN THE LEAGUE AND HAVING A SNOOZE

THIRD IN THE LEAGUE AND HAVING A SNOOZE thumbnail

I start looking forward to Champions League nights the minute our weekend fixture is over. Having endured three and a half decades of watching teams I loathe strut their stuff on European nights, it still takes time for it to sink in that Chelsea are right up there with the football elite involved in the […]


CLAUDIO’S AT IT AGAIN

CLAUDIO’S AT IT AGAIN thumbnail

Looking back at the records of previous Chelsea managers since the appointment of Ruud Gullit, I would classify both Gullit’s and Vialli’s tenure as qualified successes, while Jose’s was, needless to say, out of this world. In defence of both Ruud and Luca, one has to bear in mind that they took over a work […]


SHOPPING AT WAITROSE

SHOPPING AT WAITROSE thumbnail

Last night’s hangover has emboldened me to make my first foray into this site since my ridiculous prediction that England would walk over a unmotivated Croatia all the way to the Euro 2008 European Championship. We all get it wrong sometimes, though perhaps not as wrong as I did last time round.I have held my […]
