Carling Cup Draw: Chelsea The Victims?

Posted on October 31st, 2009 by Chelsea D

The draw has been made for the quarter-finals of the Carling Cup and unsurprisingly we’ve drawn Blackburn away.

Why do I say unsurprisingly? Well there seems to be a bit of a pattern developing in our games of late – Blackburn at home in the league, Bolton at home in the cup, Bolton away in the league, Blackburn away in the cup……

Obviously after we’ve thumped them both at Stamford Bridge, we’ve yet to see how we do away from home in both fixtures but I’m not just thinking about the outcome in terms of results – what about this bloody swine flu? I mean, are there any other clubs that seem to be getting the sort of exposure to it we are lately? Or am I just getting paranoid here?

Still, if our players do come down with it, there’s always the opportunity to give it back when the ties are played next month.

    Agree with BlueBlood whole heartedly, we got a very kind draw, be happy and stop looking for reasons to complain, it’s people constantly whinging that makes other clubs dislike Chelsea fans even though most of the whinging is done by plactics….

    blueblood/ChelseaBlueIsTheColour - I think you missed the point - it was a tongue in cheek reference to the whole swine flu thing. Lighten up :)
