They only came back to training on Wednesday. Hardly the best preparation going into a game against the best team in the league. I expect to see us play a bit more like we have been this weekend, albeit against just as difficult an opponent.Pre game you fancied us for a result didn't you ? Did the illness have no bearing on that view? Yes, I thought they could have got something from the game. It's a much better place to be mentally than being morbidly depressed all the time about everything to do with the club.

'This. And to think not to long ago we were all laughing at the SPL for being a two horse race. The EPL is hardly better.

Thanks to Sky, Scudamore and Platini's FFP.
I have seen none of Saturday's football. Nor did my discovering the result raise more than a shrug. And this inevitable defeat to a much better side bankrolled by a Russian of dubious business practice. Fucking Chelsea!Chelsea who counted Micky Droy as a cult hero. Chelsea who has electrified fences to keep in the few thousand animals that bothered to follow them.Chelsea who played at a ground with weeds growing through the concrete inside "The Bridge".Chelsea who were seen as a blight on their proximity to the Kings Road. Chelsea who even after Sky invented football had a front pairing of Mark Stein and John Spencer.Chelsea who had Sinclair and Duberry at back, Beasant in goal and their captain at the time Townsend walked here to sign.I could go on but, suffice to say, I can't stand the fucking new money, Johnny come Lately, tinpot bunch of chavs that won the lottery, Mickey Carroll esque, shithouses.
