Saha going to Everton. We haven't signed Berbatov yet and we're selling a striker!

Subject to a medical, and this is balsawood we're talking about. Surely its the clearest indication yet we're signing someone.

Liverpool signing a bitters reject.

Saying Chelsea fans are glory supporters and are only getting success because of money from a certain someone does get a bit tedious though. We were getting a lot of attendance at games before Abrahimovic came and we still do. What's wrong with a bit of support? Most of the Chelsea fans I know supported Chelsea before Abrahimovic came, but of course you might know different fans. I still won't accept we are glory hunters. It's not our fault if we come into money. We were still a top club, albeit no real chance of winning the league, but we got some luck.

Anyway enough from me, before I explode. And it's not mainly aimed at you, Phil.



Don't you call other peaople a big 'Mr.Somebody' when in the same post you get on your high horse proclaiming how you would never stop supporting Manchester United. You probably never will. The thing that annoys me is how you can say to a Chelsea fan that if we stopped winning then they wouldn't support them no more. That's incredibly patronising and twisting their post into a way so it suits yours. Bravo.

Now quit with the Chelsea bashing.

Again, I'm sorry. Just that it really annoys me.

I only said that because he said this:

'Win and success are all that matters'.

So, that says to me it's quite possible that if Chelsea were to have a barren patch, or at some time go down, he'd jump to another team. I didn't twist nothing.

Edit: My problem with Chelsea fans isn't with the ones who supported the club through all the bad times. My problem is with the 'Chelski' fans. I'm sure you know the difference. I have no doubt those of you who have supported Chelsea for years will support them forever, you're true fans. What I'm saying is how many 'Chelski' fans would stick around if they stopped winning things for a long time?

Alan Lee off to Palace for £600,000 rising to £900,000 after appearances.

And it seems likely that Jon Walters is on his way to Stoke

And what makes you such a big 'Mr Somebody'?

If you read my post correctly then you'd know I said that I was just another nobody.

And Manchester United will always be Manure to me. It might be childish or whatever, but I have made it a habit to call them that.

 

[evertonfan]

It may be childish to call them Manure, but it's even more childish for United fans (or any oher fans for that matter) to make an issue out of it. Calling them Manure is no different to referring to Chelsea as Chelski and nobody seems to complain about using that.

And a word on Saha; We haven't paid anything for him so it isn't that much of a gamble really. Besides, he may actually miraculously be fit and score a bagful. Kenwright's said tonight that we're still in the hunt for Moutinho. I doubt it, but it'd be nice.

I'm a Real Madrid fan, but in England I've followed Chelsea much before the Abramovich era. There is nothing wrong in supporting a team that is winning but like you said, when they do go through troubled times, you should not switch. Infact you should never switch at all.

A lot of you guys mock me for supporting so many teams but the fact is I was, is and always will be a Real Madrid fan. It runs in my blood, but I have also liked teams from particular countries. Trust me I like Chelsea as much as I do Fiorentina in Italy and Stuttgart in Germany, but none of them come anywhere near what I have and feel for Real Madrid.

Just for the record I started following Fiorentina during the Batistuta-Rui Costa times, and followed their stay in the lower divisions as well after they went bankrupt.

 

[evertonfan]

I wouldn't take it to heart too much, it's just that Real Madrid aren't very popular in England. Besides, I just don't like Rafael Nadal either because that's completely relevant...

 

[m_vaughan]

Madrid I do take it too hard. Losing to Barca 3-0 at the Bernabeu a few seasons back was one of the lowest points in my life. (I broke up with my then girlfriend because I was so annoyed)

With Tennis its different. I just support anyone who is Spanish. Supported Moya, Ferrero and now Nadal. Also follow Ferrer and Lopez' matches during the season.

I know Madrid is not popular in England, but then I dont really care about England. (although despite being Indian, I support the England Cricket Team and worship Freddie like a god)

 

[PhilD123]

Chelski has a bit of wit, unlike manure which sounds like its come from a primary school reading book.

Undisclosed fee for Saha, which means one side of the deal has got ripped off, and we never get the right price so it'll be us, oh well, least it means we won't have his mental problems around Carrington. I hope Liverpool hospital are ready.:cool:

Pot. Kettle. Black. Jonathan? Just another player trying to make money out of criticising United.

 

[evertonfan]

If my info is correct, then I believe we paid nothing for Saha and instead it's something to do with the Rooney deal from ages ago. Apparently you still owed us a bit so we've called it even.

 

[Leicester Fox]

You can't get ripped off for Saha. We should have been paying them to take him.

 

[evertonfan]

Yakubu's way better anyway. Why do I get the sudden feeling that you're swapping Saha for Yakubu? Leave him alone! He's our fatman. Go buy Beattie or someone.

Ah yeah, have heard about that, apparently we were supposed to pay you ?2million this summer, think thats probably the truth, still 2 million though.

Joe, you up for a fifa game?

 

[Leicester Fox]

yes i shall be on soon enough. although I just saw an advert with Eva Longoria in it so I might go have a ****.
