I was having a read around the usual sites yesterday and came across a piece on cfcuk about the stewarding at Stamford Bridge. Now, we all know about the stewards right? For every decent one with a sense of humour, there’s another one who’s just had the bypass operation to remove anything resembling wit. Whilst [...]

Chelsea’s Frank Lampard has been honoured with the Football Writers’ Association’s Tribute award. He might be, at 31, not quite at the end of his 14 year professional career but clearly, since moving to Chelsea in 2001 and winning 8 trophies, he’s found himself winning an award previously bestowed on the likes of Bobby Moore, [...]

Anelka could have had more, and would have with a bit of luck, not to mention other chances we missed but Ancelotti shouldn’t gloss over the two [...]

Hmmm, I’d like to think Carlo Ancelotti is taking the piss but somehow I just don’t think he is. You see, he seems to be showing something that resembles sympathy for Rafa Benitez. Ok, so we all know TFSW is a sad case, but public sympathy? No Carlo! With Liverpool, as we know, now out [...]

Funny really, back in the summer we were being forced to consider the possibility of life at Chelsea without John Terry – and even for £40million, there’s plenty who didn’t even want to think about it. And yet according to Steve Bruce, we almost offloaded him to Huddersfield for £750,000. Back in 1998-99 John Terry [...]

Venue: Stamford Bridge Date: Saturday, 16 January 2010 Kick-off: 1500 GMT After an enforced and somewhat convenient break, business resumes as usual for us at home to Sunderland today. Obviously the break didn’t do us any harm, what with Arsenal and United both dropping points last weekend and our rearranged game against Hull likely [...]
