Hiya good folks of Aston Villa land. Sorry for approaching you in this way but are there any fans willing to share their views on Saturday’s game between Villa and Chelsea?
We like to give the views of the opposition on our site and any contributors views that are used will be credited as will the site. (We are not the sort of site who rubbishes other clubs just for the sake of it. You will see that on past articles which are below. Don't worry if you hate Chelsea. We are used to it. Just tell it how you see it from your claret and blue heart)
I cannot post site address but should any contributors be interest I could pm their piece on our site.
These are some the views we are interested in:
What were your expectations before the season started?
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Just put any views on this board and I'll pop back tomorrowish.
Thank you

Hi mate as below :
What were your expectations before the season started? 12th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much? Paul Lambert and his dire tactics
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties? No
Are you still behind Paul Lambert? No
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind? That game you edged the other December at your place
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general? Once traditional club, Lost the plot.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction? 0-4 away win.
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
10th-14th.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Lambert's decision to apply glue to the underside of the players' boots hasn't helped.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
No, but I can see other teams getting us out for us, as usual.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Yep - ready to push him if asked.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Quite a few actually, in recent years. The 4-4 with Barry's last minute penalty, your Jose's last league game in his first spell (Doug's handshake), when we beat you under McLeish at Stamford Bridge, and of course the worst FA Cup final in history.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Better football these days, but it's still a little annoying that your owner is literally one of the worst people in the world.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Aston Villa nil, Chelsea whatever they can get (probably 3-5).
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
Solid mid-table.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
2 words - Paul Lambert
Solid mid-table.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Not without a change of manager (or at the very least the employment of a coach that understands tactics and isn't scared of his own shadow.)
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Only if it's shoving him through the door with his P45
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
4-4 a few years ago.
1-0 last year.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Everything that's wrong with modern football.
Constant support of the odious John Terry.
Throw (very dubiously obtained) money at it until you get what you want.
Moanrinho and his childish refusal to ever accept that your players can do wrong. His condescending comments to Lambert after last years game at Stamford Bridge followed by his hypocrisy at Villa Park being a classic example.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Either a dour backs to the wall 0-0 or, if Lambert is still in full on suicidal tendencies mode, a day of chasing shadows and anywhere between 0-3 to 0-6.
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
12th-10th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
We have a manger doing his utmost to replace Graham Turner and Bill McNeil as top of the poorest manager’s in our 141 year history.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
I’m not sure. As awful as we are, somehow we’re not bottom and a drift. Hull, QPR, Burnley and Leicester have actually conspired to be somehow worse. We’re reliant on that status quo remaining.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
No.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
The two poorest results in our history; 0-1 in the Cup Final and 0-8 the other year.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Chelsea epitomise everything that is to be despised about the state of football post 1992. The gentrification of Chelsea’s support must make the toes of the 9,000 who used to turn up at the hole that was Stamford Bridge, curl, when they see Tarquin’s waving plastic flags and jumping on a bandwagon.
Don’t get me wrong, Chelsea were pretty despicable when all they were known for was having a firm, a chairman who wanted to build an electric fence and a load of Kombat 18 racists following them. Chelsea are also not alone in the advent of the foam hand wearing Sky generation one game a season tourists, with their half and half scarves; Liverpool, Man United and Arsenal have an equally sickening support, but the change at Chelsea is so dramatic.
The fact its fuelled by a lamentable oligarch, only trumped in the disgusting stakes by the human rights abusers at Man City doesn’t sit well either.
It says everything about the absence of class when you folk worship an alleged racist scumbag like John Terry. Your manager is cynical and hypocritical weasel.
You also charge over £50 a ticket for away games, you fucking parasites.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
0-3.

I just can't take Chelsea as a football club seriously. They were 80 million in debt on the back of Harding's attempts at doping and then a dubious Russian jumps in and throws a billion at them. Sorry to the very nice OP from Chelsea, but this fixture highlights everything that is wrong with football today. Villa are breaking their backs and risking Premier League survival to ensure we are constantly in the black whilst rules are now in place to prevent Abramovich-like investment at the club. If any fixture highlights how rotten and hollow football currently is, this is it. I would love Villa to take a lead and make a big stand about the lack of a level playing field...and why not? We bloody created the league after all.
Sorry, I couldn't bring myself to answer any of the questions.

This - superb Ads.

I strongly remember Terry trying to break Milners legs at Wembley and the ref not having the bottle to send him off (Coward Web?)
The manager feels its appropriate to run up behind someone poke them in the eye and then run off.
Never saw a person wearing a Chelsea shirt (living in the west country and west midlands) until the 1993.

This still really makes me mad.

What were your expectations before the season started? The domestic treble, with a 100% win record and no goals conceded.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much? There is an international conspiracy against us involving the CIA, Mossad and the New World Order.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties? I think it may be pushing it to win the league now, but subject to that I doubt we shall drop another point all season.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert? How could anyone not be, when he is doing such an excellent job?
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind? No, especially not a match that did not take place in May 2000.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general? I've never met Bill Clinton's daughter so I cannot comment on her.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction? A 0-9 moral victory for Villa, on the basis that Chelsea's 7th was possibly marginally offside.

I cannot post site address but should any contributors be interest I could pm their piece on our site.
These are some the views we are interested in:
What were your expectations before the season started?
Thought Mid Table would be realistic and still think we have enough quality to achieve this, sadly we have an awful manager.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
That was a false position, we were picking up points by not conceding and scoring very few, our scoring has now ground to a halt.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties? Unless the owner wakes up and sacks this dreadful manager then we are a good bet to either drop or scrape through. The momentum and form tells you that we are heading for relegation. Our only hope is that there are 3 teams even worse.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert? No, the vast majority f fans can not wait to see the back of him.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Yes and some are to difficult to talk about. The Toney Daley winner at the Bridge was something special.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Sadly Chelsea have attracted the very worse type of Supporters with little respect for the game and what it should mean. The guy on Twitter that said we were jealous because we had never won the European Cup sums it up really.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
I think you will score a couple then control the game and maybe score again. We will get nil.
Just put any views on this board and I'll pop back tomorrowish.
Cheers
Thank you

I strongly remember Terry trying to break Milners legs at Wembley and the ref not having the bottle to send him off (Coward Web?)
He also didn't have the bottle to award us a blatant penalty. Both incidents were whilst it was stiill 0-0.
This still really makes me mad.

I've only met five Chelsea supporters in my life. Four of them in the past ten years and one in the thirty preceding.
-
What were your expectations before the season started? Mid table and cup run
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much? 8 league goals since then tells the story. That freakish start has kept us in with a chance of staying up.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties? It wont be down to our efforts if we do.Got to be 50/50 now.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert? Not really but its a huge risk either way if we sack him now or not. Now leaning towards flipping the coin.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind? The 4-4 on Boxing Day a few years back.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general? Pre Abramovic - no real feelings, quite liked the team in the early 70s. Quite often in different divisions when I was growing up. Post Abramovic - despicable club, despicable values, despicable Manager, lowlife Captain. And you wear blue!
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction? We will put up a fight, go behind and peter out. I dont see a landslide but 2 or 3 goals in it. Going to go 1-4. We surely have to score!! Crowd will give Mourinho a bad time, he will have some sort of bust up with officials, then disappear down the tunnel with a minute to go like the ignorant, disrespectful, arrogant twunt he is.
PS - respect for the user name Mr Lochead. Wish the big man was playing Saturday (even now).

What were your expectations before the season started?
9th-12th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Team of wimps, cowardly tactics
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
We are amongst 6/7 clubs of which 3 will go - with Lambert in charge I think we might drop
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Not even remotely
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
4-4, Luc Nilis making Lebouef look like a clown, Tore Andre Flo beating us on his own one Sunday lunchtime
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
I still see Chelsea as that empty ground with the disabled cars parked behind the goal - same as I still view Man City as the team most likely to throw all good away - think I'm old fashioned
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Villa nil...
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
Hard struggle and another relegation battle. There was no reason for optimism.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Because it was a false narrative (in joke for Villa fans) to start with. Our form since then is the real story.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Not a chance, until Lerner leaves the club and Lambert goes. For the second thing to happen the first is going to have to happen too.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Nope. A good man who has been totally found out at this level. He lacks any sort of coaching, motivation and tactical skills.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Lots, because you're the one club we seem to have some sort of hex over.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
They're not positive, put it that way.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
We'll lose. Probably by 2 or 3.
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
10th-15th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Paul Lambert
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Only if we replace Lambert with someone who'd do better (like my dead gran, a 5 year old girl or a lump of chewing gum on the end of a lollipop stick) or if there are somehow 3 worse teams (again).
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
No
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
A fair few for the wrong reasons. I did enjoy the game at Stamford Bridge we won a few years ago, mainly because it was the only good performance in Alex Mcleish's entire time in charge.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Sorry, but I think of them as one of the two or three clubs most responsible for the fact that english football is no longer a sporting competition, but a cheque writing one. Their old fans are racist hooligans, their new fans are gloryhunters from the middle class or Malaysia who would've crapped themselves at the mere thought of going within a mile of the old Stamford Bridge. John Terry is a squeaky voiced racist shitstain. The owner is a criminal.
I do like Mourinho though.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
0-3

If Chelsea were a Celebrity Big Brother contestant it would be Katie Hopkins.
-
I for one would like to defend John Terry a little. He has a very human side. I've seen him do lots for charity in quiet etc and he never gets plaudits for that.
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
10th, playing better football with the view of kicking on
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Paul Lambert and his coaching methods. Would love to know exactly what goes on at training Mon-Fri. Throw in the fact we are in season 17 of not having a creative central midfielder.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Yes
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
I have no feelings on this because the next manager will be the same will only achieve the same results.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
The FA cup shambles in 2000.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Lottery winners.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Villa are involved so it could be anything. But I am going for the standard hold on for 80 mins before rolling over. 0-2 away win.
-
I just remember the 80's as their hideous fans roaming around Aston threatening Asian shopkeepers and attacking isolated Villa fans mob-handed well after the match finished - and yes I was one of them - never forget and still wish you ill...
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
15th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Useless management and an owner that doesn't care.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Not really, no. It's all rather embarrassing isn't it?
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
No - can't see how any of us could be anymore. Shame, as I had high hopes initially (or as high as a Villa supporter can be!)
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Yeah that Boxing Day game a few years back - mainly as I was sat in a car listening to the radio, watching the sea in Cornwall.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
They remind me of Manchester United - and that's not a compliment.
Mourinho is obnoxious and classless. His whole persona has become boring and dis-likable.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Aston Villa nil, Chelsea a lot more.

10th
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
We have been incapable of maintaining any good form for years. Amazing isn't it?
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Honestly, no. Years of decline have ground us down to celebrating staying up. With the FFP scam in effect we can't even buy our way out of trouble. You lot should look out of Roman ever decides to reign in spending.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
No. But I dread who Lerner will hire to replace him. Whoever it is, it will be bad. Its like being in a plane with a clearly drunk pilot flying towards a mountain. You know you need to change the person flying the plane but the only other passengers are a giraffe , a labrador and a penguin. You have to decide which of them is going to make the better pilot.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Mcleish nicking that win at your place and you lot spanking us 8-0
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Maybe uniquely here I actually rather like Chelsea. You helped unseat the odious manyoo and liverpool axis and for that I am grateful. I wish our billionaire had the same commitment to his club that yours does.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Most likely you win and Mou gloatingly puts his arm around Lambert. Possibly we can nick a 0-0 but I doubt it.
Just put any views on this board and I'll pop back tomorrowish.
No need. Just send over Eden Hazard for the rest of the season please, k thnx bye. :)
Thank you

What were your expectations before the season started?
Hope springs eternal. Mid table.
(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
We simply flattered to deceive. Oh, and we adopted a don't let them score policy even if it meant we didn't score either. When that failed, we were f*cked.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Unless there are substantial changes to our style of play which have rarely even been hinted at these last three seasons, then no.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Not at all. It's difficult to support a manager who would appear to have so little influence on coaching, tactics or motivation.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
Last season's win at VP, not just because we won, but also having to witness the histrionics of some Chelsea players and especially your daft manager. Before that, Deadly's grinning handshake, and before that, some entertaining games against Tommy Doc's Chelsea teams - which we quite frequently won.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
A club that now epitomises pretty much everything that I despise about the rotten state of football today.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
One sided, finishing Villa 0 - Chelsea some goals

(When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
We have a manager doing his utmost to replace Graham Turner and Bill McNeil as top of the poorest manager’s in our 141 year history.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
I’m not sure. As awful as we are, somehow we’re not bottom and a drift. Hull, QPR, Burnley and Leicester have actually conspired to be somehow worse. We’re reliant on that status quo remaining.
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
No.

The two poorest results in our history; 0-1 in the Cup Final and 0-8 the other year.

Chelsea epitomise everything that is to be despised about the state of football post 1992. The gentrification of Chelsea’s support must make the toes of the 9,000 who used to turn up at the hole that was Stamford Bridge, curl, when they see Tarquin’s waving plastic flags and jumping on a bandwagon.
Don’t get me wrong, Chelsea were pretty despicable when all they were known for was having a firm, a chairman who wanted to build an electric fence and a load of Kombat 18 racists following them. Chelsea are also not alone in the advent of the foam hand wearing Sky generation one game a season tourists, with their half and half scarves; Liverpool, Man United and Arsenal have an equally sickening support, but the change at Chelsea is so dramatic.
The fact its fuelled by a lamentable oligarch, only trumped in the disgusting stakes by the human rights abusers at Man City doesn’t sit well either.
It says everything about the absence of class when you folk worship an alleged racist scumbag like John Terry. Your manager is cynical and hypocritical weasel.
You also charge over £50 a ticket for away games, you fucking parasites.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
0-3.

Tell abramovich to write a cheque for £10 billion to buy our history tradition and support for your little club in Fulham and that will take you up to 1975.
The next 40 years will cost you a lot more mate.
Remember being with the prawn sarnie brigade in the playboy box at Wembley in the 2010 semi when you did us 3-0 and just sat there totally in awe of our support that day.
All the chelsea fans in there said they would rather get beat 3-0 and have support like that.
Now that's what you call a big club
-
All very honest replies. I can understand the ill feeling towards Chelsea. If I had not supported them since 1969 I would no doubt feel the same.
What I would like to say is that Aston Villa are a great old club and I wish them well this season.
Thanks again for the replies which I will use.

What were your expectations before the season started?
I thought we'd most likely struggle but was hoping for a relatively comfortable mid-table, or at least to be mathematically safe by the end of April for a change.
When Villa came to Stamford Bridge in late September you were in 3rd place, three points off the top.) Why have Villa fallen away so much?
Due to being a poor team managed by an abysmal manager.
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
Depends what you mean. Short-term we could scrape our way clear of relegation given a change of approach (and manager). Long-term we need a change of ownership (sadly, as I like Randy Lerner and bought into his dreams for the club), fresh ideas for how to increase revenue and a substantial cash injection (although that's unlikely... see below) to get back to the sort of level we aspire to (top six).
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
I'd only be behind him if I was holding a dagger.
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
I think I enjoyed last year's victory the best. In my early years watching Villa, we'd expect to beat a no-mark club like Chelsea and I struggle to remember very many of them any more than I remember matches against the Lutons and the Southamptons of this World. Throughout the late nineties and 2000s, I'd always thought we had a chance even in seasons in which you were clearly better than us. In the last few years we've been so atrocious that a victory against you felt almost as unlikely as it must've felt to visiting Bradford fans the other week. I was delighted to beat you. The fact that it cost you the title and Mourinho couldn't stop moaning about it for months on end made it all the sweeeter.
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Ads has pretty much summed up my feelings but still...
Quite simply, Chelsea are the most revolting club there has ever been.
Nothing more than a Millwall that happened to win the Lottery (twice), they have no class and no redeeming features whatsoever.
Their supporters can, generally, be divided into two classes.
Firstly, the London fans. Those that boast of having been Chelsea fans prior to the great theft of Russia's resources by a handful of unelected hatchet men without scruples. The fact that they have probably more "hoolie" books than any other club tells its own story. These are the sort of people that liked to attack people for having the temerity to support a different team then boasted about it afterwards. They were Chavs before Chavs were invented.
While most hooligan groups are populated by wasters and scumbags, Chelsea's is almost certainly the vilest in England. Perpetually associated with the far right, they were at least equal-opportunities racists, booing their own black players as well as the opposition's. It's no coincidence that when the BBC were after a group of right-wing scumbag hooligans to film, they chose Chelsea's. They didn't disappoint, being among the large numbers of Chelsea fans to perform the Nazi salute at a European away game, attending a march in favour of Loyalist terrorists and even boasting of taking pictures of themselves Sieg-Heiling at Auschwitz.
Of course, you could say this was just a coincidence and most Chelsea fans aren't racist, but your captain is a dead giveaway, isn't he? We, at Villa, take pride in our club's refusal to perform a salute for Hitler when we toured Nazi Germany (unlike the England national team). You take pride that you refused to strip a racist of the captaincy (unlike the England national team).
Moving on to the non-London fans, of course there are plenty of glory-hunting bellends who follow you too. We all know the sort. A social inadequate, unloved by his family, with no real friends, desperately seeking a vicarious claim to reflected glory by following a bunch of ne'er-do-wells who have bought success on a previously unprecedented scale. They probably had a neglected childhood and have a cupboard full of old Man United and Liverpool shirts. Very soon there will be Man City ones in there too.
Regarding the actual team, there is, again, little to like. With the sheer money spent you should at least be good to watch. In fact, with the oil billions you should be capable of playing the most wondrous football ever seen. We'd still dislike you but would, at least, have a grudging admiration for your talents and swashbuckling style.
But... you don't. You grind out results, celebrate nil-nil draws away from home against rivals that cost a fraction of your squad, then you moan like crazy every time some assembled-on-a-shoestring visiting team refuses to capitulate and actually tries to defend against you. John Terry is a contemptible racist who has shown no remorse for his actions or for his other, previous, criminality. He epitomises all that people hate about Chelsea. Costa is a cheating thug. Most of the rest of your players collapse to the ground at the merest hint of an opponent. I don't really despise Man City. I despise Chelsea.
The manager is also a prick of the highest order. Never with a positive word to say about any other side, he habitually blames referees every time his team lose. He was still whingeing about the Villa defeat about six months later, conveniently overlooking the numerous officiating blunders which benefited his team in the previous encounter at Stamford Bridge Shopping Centre. He is, so far as I know, the only manager to bully a referee into retirement. He also failed to back down even when typical scumbag Chelsea fans were sending death threats to said official.
Not only did they their place in the elite, forever removing any possibility of genuine "competition", they have campaigned for rules to stop any club doing likewise via the laughably-named "Financial Fair Play" rules. They've gone from a Yo-Yo club to a club which looks on "just" winning the FA Cup as a failed season, then pulled up the drawbridge after them by seeking to ensure that no would-be Abramovich can ever make his club competitive again.
In summary, Chelsea are just fuckin' 'orrible. A pox on them and all their houses.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
Badly. I predict the home club will score zero and the visiting side will score more than zero.
Just put any views on this board and I'll pop back tomorrowish.
Thank you
You're welcome, scumbag. ;-)

I was hoping to avoid yet another relegation battle. That's working out well.
We always knew we were in a false position at the start of the season. I was counting the first ten points as a head start in the relegation battle.
Amazingly I think that yet again we will be lucky enough to find three teams even worse than us.
Would you be?
My first Villa/Chelsea game. 4-2 just after you came up in '84.
Almost two different clubs. Old school/new school fans. I like you when you beat Manchester United and Birmingham (remember them?).
We will get nil. The rest is up to you.

A friend and colleague says similar. He has supported Chelsea since the 1960s and is sick of the bandwaggoners.

This.....I feel sorry for their 'proper' fans, that have been there through thick and thin, but to be associated with one of the clubs that has created the status quo and killed the opportunities of other clubs must grate a little, despite the trophies they've won in the last few years. Won't forget the arrogance of their fans in London at the FA Cup semi either.....they just sum up everything that's wrong with football. And as for that racist vile thug Terry....
-
I would just like to say Charlie Cooke and Alan Hudson were very good footballers. Hudson in fact was a brilliant footballer....who didn't cheat!

Thank you for spelling Lochhead correctly. However you did employ the rarely used and in my opinion an unacceptably short version of his name.
In fact `Andy Lochhead In The Air` is itself an abridged form of his full name and title which is `Andy Andy Lochhead In The Air In The Air`.

What I wish on your club is unprintable. You will never ever in a thousand years be a great old club or ever have one ounce of the class my club does. I hope you do use the replies here because they epitomise what almost every football fan I know thinks about your classless chavvy club. And I doubt it very much indeed that you can understand the hatred towards your lot. They represent everything that is wrong in football, not that you'll be bothered by that I'm sure.
-
Moaning Manager, thug centre back, never, I repeat never a big club. Only Romans money makes you credible at all.
However, brilliant Manager, some great players, wish you had a little more class though and remember when you weren't so great. Never forget your roots.
-
Don't take it personally Andy Lochhead.
You're obviously an old-school, genuine Blue supporter.
Enjoy the success while you have it. It's been bought with a cheque book and is temporary.
As soon as another billionaire comes along - to buy Orient or Accrington Stanley or Kidderminster Harriers, Chelsea will be forgotten.
Such "success" is nothing to be proud of.
It hasn't been worked at, for, or in any way admirable.
It has been bought.
Without a doubt, Villa's and Forest's 80s successes (for instance) were achieved through careful management and limited financial dealings. Something to consider and admire.
In recent years it's simply been a matter of more money, more success.
In a word, shite. "We're a big club, the rest of you can f**k off!"
Especially for the game of football, for the vast, vast majority of clubs.
Chelsea epitomise perfectly the dreadful state of the modern game - great for the top 4/5 in the PL - tough luck for everybody else. In the PL, Championship, Leagues 1, 2 and beyond.
Great for you guys - at the moment - shit for everybody else.
Be proud?

Chelsea. Summed up to me when leaving Wembley after the cup final in 2000. Me and a mate had waited for the presentations as we thought even though we were a well pissed off with the result and performance we didn't know when we would see the Villa there again.
On leaving the stadium walking down the steps we were next to Chelsea fans. I remember saying along the lines of "you could have let us win it, we don't know if we'll get here again anytime soon"
This was met with "fuck off you Villa wankers. You Brummie useless c***s." After a little altercation and police intervention we made our way back to the pub.
Ungracious in victory.
Classless is the only word I can use. Oh and wankers.

Because they really are the final proof that what you need to win the title is an owner willing to spend about £200m a season (or whatever) to win stuff? Chelsea were at least winning cups and playing in Europe before Abromovich turned up - I know they were about to do a Leeds - but City were basically the equivalent of Stoke (in terms of quality of the side) before their new owners took over.
-
I dislike plenty of clubs before I get to Chelsea
they hardly register with me because I just discount them as a football club, even there own fans don't enjoy their success I feel, when they win stuff its pretty meaningless
the thing is if its your club that's it, you cant change so you have to enjoy the ride
-
Didn't their under-21 side cause a near-riot at VP with their wanky behaviour when we played then in the 2-leg final?
Rotten from the bottom to the top - I remember you bastards lobbing bottles at women and kids as we came out of the Witton - not so fookin brave a few months later in Digbeth though were you when we did the NF Youth - see you tomorrow

They were winning cups on the back of Harding's money. I don't remember Citeh getting too many sub 10K Premier League attendances when they were shit.
-
What were your expectations before the season started?
Relegation. Our excellent start to the season was a welcome surprise but we all knew it was never going to last. However we did seem to have made some progress and it raised hopes for the rest of the season. Which makes our recent form all the more frustrating, because there's a half-decent team in there if only we had a half-decent manager.
Why have Villa fallen away so much?
The obvious easy answer is that Lambert is clueless and the players have lost any confidence or belief they may have had in him. I think the Roy Keane fiasco had quite a big impact - he was clearly brought in to help motivate the players more (which at least initially seemed to work) but now he's gone Lambert's seen as an even bigger lame duck than he was before. Also losing Delph for a long period through injury at a crucial time was a rotten slice of luck that a meager squad like ours couldn't compensate for. And let's not forget Benteke, our only credible goal source who simply isn't interested any more (but much of the blame for that again must go back to Lambert).
Can you see Villa getting out of their present difficulties?
After the Chelsea game Villa have a run of 4 matches against relatively poor teams that they absolutely must get a minimum of 6 points from. If we don't manage that then we're fucked, simple as that. (I am of course assuming that we'll get nothing out of the Chelsea game!).
Are you still behind Paul Lambert?
Still?!?!
Any Villa v Chelsea games that stick in your mind?
The last one I attended personally was the Cup semi-final at Wembley. I remember it fondly for the fact that a journo friend of mine who wasn't covering the game sorted me out with his press pass (I live in London btw), so I got to go for free, had complimentary food and booze, and sat in the press box (with my own tv monitor and wifi connection) with one of the best views in the stadium. But apart from that it was shit, and it was the match when I realised that Martin O'Neill had probably taken us as far as he could. But as bad as that was, we still had a decent side and could hope for better things to come. My god how times have changed since then!
Any thoughts on Chelsea in general?
Whatever you may think of him, you've a lot to thank Ken Bates for! I wish our former owner had managed to find a buyer for Villa who'd had even half the money of Abramovich. But someone like that isn't going to buy a club situated in an area like B6 are they? Stamford Bridge just happens to be situated in one of the most desirable areas in the country (or the world) for any investor, so your recent success and status inflation are almost totally thanks to your location and the effects of gentrification. If it weren't for that you'd be no better than Spurs. Or Millwall.
How do you see Saturday’s game going, with a score prediction?
I'm clutching at straws here but if Lambert can't motivate his players then maybe playing against the likely champions will do. Mourinho's dismal record at VP and last season's result give us some hope, and the crowd should be up for it. However I can't see anything other than a Chelsea win by at least 2 goals. Hell, even scoring one goal in any game is a big achievement for us these days!
-
One thing I will say, Lambert has this routine of a dozen or more awful performances followed by a massively surprising win, which buys him time for another dozen or so awful performances.
This match fits all the criteria for being the unexpected happy time.

The difference, for me, between Man City and Chelsea - who, let's be honest, are both doing the same thing, the lucky fuckers - is that when i think back to before they had money, the Man City fans I met were generally a decent lot, whereas the Chelsea fans were invariably absolute ******.
They were fucking horrible before they had money, and they're even more horrible now they have it.

I only knew two Chelsea supporters - I used to work with them. One was my boss- bmw driving coke head thug wanker. The other one was our yard man. I never really got on that welll with him, but when he invited me to go to SB for a league cup game around '98 I think it was, I thought fuck it why not. Worst mistake ever- no chat out of him, just a smug fucking grin on his face whilst Chelsea steamrollered us about 4-0 I think it was. I couldn't get out of there quick enough and back to the tube. It was one of the first games terry played for the club and he was Unfortunately for us, fucking brilliant that night. ******.
Always hated Chelsea, 2000 was a real bad low point for us at Wembley. Felt so rotten that night. Terrible day.
So hello to the original poster, no offence, but I hope we fucking stuff you every time the clubs meet. I think there are only 3 other clubs I dislike more- utd, Leeds and blues in that order.

Well after the 2nd replay against Everton at Old Trafford in the LCup both sets of fans chanted each others praises and then outside much hand shaking and commiserations
-
To be quite frank if we won the FA Cup Final I'd be too busy orgasming to worry about the opposition supporters.
-
Yep. The fact that their first act, on winning a major trophy, is to look for opposition fans to abuse rather than celebrate their victory, is typical of them.
I encountered the same, lots of twats trying to have a pop with "ah fack off, enjoy the In'er'o'o you mags".

I'd really like to print off all the hypocritical shit he's ever spouted and force feed it to him, literally make him eat his words.
Unfortunately I don't think there's enough paper in the world to cover all of his hypocritical whinges.
A gobby classless wanker of a manager, for a classless club, with a classless wanker of an owner and a fan base that is made up of predominantly classless wankers, both from before and after the money.
They really are well suited to eachover all the way round.

Mourinhio teams are very functional, but not very entertaining.
I don't mind Chelsk though, my mate is a Chelsk fan, and to be fair to him went home and away when they were shite.

Couldn't agree more. At least Man City have tried to create a team that entertains. When they were on fire last season they were mind blowing. Chelsea just do enough to win and no more.

Which is why they'll win the league.

Chelsea epitomise everything that i hate about the premier league. Unfortunately, money breeds success. Oh...and don't get me started on that clearing in the woods, John Terry.

What a cynical side Chelsea are. Feigning injuries and time wasting whenever they get the chance. Poor form and that's why everyone hates you.
Will they honestly care when they're winning the league again in May?

I thought Matic played well but their best player for me week in week out is Ivanovich. What a great signing he has been .
Cheats occasionally but very good and very hard defender
Yup, he'd be my first name on the teamsheet every week.

Of course not. The OP asked for thoughts on Chelsea in general, so there's mine.

Ivanovic is one of those players you can't stand, but would love in your team.

How true is that. I think he's scored 5 goals in 6 against us now as well, the git!
