    Time For Chelsea To Grow Up

    WHAT’S GONE WRONG AT CHELSEA? For six years, Chelsea have been a relentless winning machine, but that arrogant sense of superiority has faded away. In its place is hesitancy, vulnerability and a worrying inability to dictate the flow of games. Chelsea are dropping points so frequently that...

    A-League Grand Final

    Melbourne 1 Sydney 1 aet Sydney win on penalties So, ****ney FC are the Australian champions....bugger! :madman:

  3. Champions League Draw

    So, after 30 minutes of watching a balding Frenchman blunder and fumble his way around the draw, the quarter finals line up like so: Lyon vs Bordeaux Bayern Munich vs Man United Arsenal vs Barcelona Inter vs CSKA Moscow And the, the semi-finals will line up as: Lyon/Bordeaux vs Munich/United...

  4. Chelsea Recieve Nul Points, Again

    Apparently, Carlo Ancelotti’s mother never warned him that if he pulled a funny face and the wind blew, it would stay that way. Ancelotti pulled the same expression of futile, emotionless pondering for 94 miserable minutes as Chelsea, yet again, faultered in Europe. Much had been made of...

  5. Pellegrini In A State Of Pjanic

    When Manuel Pellegrini took the reins at Real Madrid, blank cheque book in hand, I doubt very much he expected his only shot at silverware at this stage of the season would lie solely in a sprint to the finish with Barcelona... Courtesy of Miralem Pjanic, that is exactly the situation. Lyon...

  6. At what point did it go wrong?

    All the hard work in getting promoted from league 2 after all those terrible seasons and finishing as champions of league 1 and as it looks, we're back to square one. Can't believe how bad things have gone. It's unbelievable. How has it got so bad? Can anybody put a finger on where it's gone...

  7. Why I Own A Green And Gold Scarf...

    I’m not a Manchester United fan. When Freddy Eastwood dispatched a venomous 25-yard free kick past Tomasz Kuszczack in the Carling Cup, I was as ecstatic as every other Southend supporter crammed into Roots Hall. I do, however, own a green and gold scarf. Supporters are funny groups of people...

    The FA Cup

    I see that there are 4 FA Cup replays this week, and the prime broadcaster ITV are electing to show the cash cow "league" instead. Their excuse is that clubs could not be persuaded to play either Tuesday or Thursday nights. After all the fuss about how utterly abysmal the FA Cup coverage was...

  9. Question Worse Keepers than Mildy ?

    Every SUFC fan who is not impressed for whatever reason with Mildy should be thankful we didn't get offered the Arsenal keeper Fabianski on loan. So far tonight in the Arsenal vs Porto Champions League match he gifted Porto with their first by mis-handling a cross into his own goal without being...

    Champions League play-off?

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/8516372.stm The teams from 4th to 7th play each other in a mini tournament to decide who gets the 4th CL spot. Another crackpot idea thats doomed to failure??

    Nothing To Love At City Either

    I was delighted to see Manchester City lose this weekend. How appalling is that? It made me feel dirty. It is a truly sad man who takes pleasure in the misfortune of others, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to feel anything other than contempt for Roberto Mancini's men. They were well...

    Nothing To Love At Team England

    So farewell, John Terry. Stripped of the captaincy for stripping his mate's girlfriend, and several other people's girlfriends by the sounds of it, we shall not see his like again. It's all so thoroughly grubby and pointless and it's a massive blow for England's chances of summer glory. Terry...

    John Terry Entourage of Jokes

    Enjoy! JT has signed up to star in a new TV show. It's called Other Footballers' Wives. Ashley Cole was caught doing 104mph in a 50mph zone. When questioned by police as to why he was speeding, he said: "l've just heard JT is parked outside my house!" England manager Fabio Capello...

  14. Robinho: The £32.5m Advert

    When Manchester City pipped Chelsea to the signing of Robinho 18 months ago, it was dubbed as the transfer that would make the whole world take notice. It has, we’ve now noticed just how petulant a footballer can possibly be. The Brazilian forward come winger come child has had what can only be...

  15. Stoke vs Arsenal

    Fuller scores for Stoke within 2 minutes! Quite a young team by Arsene Wenger and with the strength of Stoke they may be outmuscled. Campbell makes his first competitive start for Arsenal since scoring in the Champions League final in 2006.

  17. Lady Luck limps back into Liverpool

    Liverpool haven’t exactly had the best of luck this season. Karma paid it back with a vengeance tonight as troubled Merseyside club recorded a precious win against a Spurs side battling with them for that coveted 4th place finish. The game started at a tentative pace, with Spurs looking to make...

    Sullivan Can Save Hammers

    The arrival of David Gold and David Sullivan at Upton Park is the best news that West Ham United fans could have asked for this year. Their team may be locked into a relegation battle, their money long since squandered on shoddy goods, but finally they have people in the boardroom who know what...

    Save Rafa....

    Out of the title race, out of the Champions League, out of the League Cup and out of the FA Cup. Under normal circumstances, it's obvious that Rafa Benitez would be out of a job this morning but, unfortunately for Liverpool, these are far from normal circumstances. They are broke, weighed down...
