There was a time when I didn’t hate international breaks. I’ve never jumped on the anti-England brigade’s bandwagon, if anything, I’ve always been big on supporting England. I’m English, why wouldn’t I? Well, maybe because it’s not fashionable – or at least that’s what you’d have thought before this week – but then the seemingly [...]

Cheeky little mention for TheChelseaBlog in the Evening Standard on support for England from London club’s supporters’ – obviously said prior to the FA stamping all over my usual patriotism! Have a look at the link though, the QPR view is highly amusing

So, John Terry retires from international football and literally within minutes people are asking whether Rio Ferdinand will get a recall. What I don’t understand though is why?

John Terry has undoubtedly made the odd poor decision in his time (haven’t we all) but his decision to retire from international football yesterday was absolutely spot on.

Ashley Cole. Say that name and most people (outside of Chelsea) will throw the ‘C’ word about. Considering his service to England and English football, I find that a bit strange if I’m honest. Ok, so he may not be the subject of any ‘How to be the perfect husband’ manuals, but then there’s probably [...]

Strange that me of all people should seem to be championing the Ashley Cole cause this weekend but he really impressed me for Chelsea last season and his form and attitude have undoubtedly carried over into the Euros.
