Toffees Toothless As Chelsea Make It Eight In Two

October 16, 2011

John Terry scored on his 350th league appearance for Chelsea against Everton on Saturday, doubling an earlier Sturridge effort in the first half and preceding a Ramires goal in the second, which saw Chelsea beat Everton at home for the first time since 2006. With the international break coming straight after a 5-1 victory over Bolton, there was a concern that the teams rhythm may have been upset. This was…

We’ll start in the Netherlands, where two Blues find themselves flying high in the Eredivisie with Vitesse Arnhem.

Diplomatic Immunity: Everton

October 14, 2011

An occasional series of open discussions with opposition fans. They can say what they like about Chelsea and I promise not to be rude back to them. Number 3:  Toffee Time Why Everton? As a Scouser, what’s the choice? Tranmere? I used to go to watch them play sometimes, but when you’re a kid you want a bit more razzamatazz don’t you? You want to see the big names play….

Chelsea FC: Giving Up Your Rights

October 10, 2011

If it wasn’t enough for the club to show how little they care for supporters with regards to the CPO and Stamford Bridge issue, a piece of information comes our way today that shows this is a growing trend. The club have started a new ‘upload your photo/videos’ section on the Official Chelsea FC website called ‘All Blues. All Season‘ – we were asked to promote it a short while…

October 9, 2011

A few days ago we ran a survey and asked as many Chelsea supporters as possible to give us their opinions on the proposed buy out of the Chelsea Pitch Owners, and also any possible stadium move. We were amazed at the response to the survey with over 1000 people filling it in, although some were only partially completed we have included those questions answered in the results, this is…

An Open Letter To Bruce Buck & Richard King

October 8, 2011

Dear Bruce and Richard, You have both made serious misjudgements on the proposal to buy back Chelsea Pitch Owners (CPO) shares. So serious, that I feel neither of you have any credibility left in your respective roles and I call for both of you to resign… but more about that later. Seeing as neither of you are prepared to answer emails or phone calls, I thought I’d outline my points…

Under-18s: Chelsea 0-3 Arsenal

October 8, 2011

Chelsea’s Under-18 team suffered another defeat on Saturday morning as despite a strong performance against Arsenal, they succumbed to late strikes to lose 3-0. An experienced back four included Aziz Deen-Conteh and the returning Daniel Pappoe making his first appearance of the season, but there was also room for four schoolboys in Adie Viveash’s starting eleven in Mitchell Beeney, Alex Kiwomya, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Reece Mitchell. Arsenal featured no such…

A Question Of Trust – Or Is It?

October 7, 2011

With the background of Chelsea’s offer to CPO, it seems to me that there are a lot of questions about whether or not we trust Ron Gourlay, Buck et al, to do the right thing. Most of us seem to trust Roman quite a bit (I count myself amongst those) but aren’t sure about the others. Mr Buck wants our trust – he wants us to trust the Board to…
