Myth


They did an article not long back and both Man U and Liverpool have spent more than Chelsea on players since the russian guy took over


Agreed, Chelsea's trophies between 2005 and 2007 were down to top quality management by Mourinho, they didn't go out and buy galacticos. If Liverpool had bought Drogba, Cech, Ferreira, Carvalho, and the rest of them nobody would have really batted an eyelid and they certainly wouldn't have said they were 'buying the title' :lol:

Chelseas best players were guys who were already at the club when Mourinho got there, Lampard, Terry and Joe Cole. Mourinho got an extra gear out of them.

Buying the title would have been if they'd gone and bought Robinho, Kaka, Messi and co.

Think of the money United spent on Veron, Van Nistelrooy, Ferdinand, Anderson, Carrick and so on, they've shelled out millions.

So a ban for Liverpool, UEFA and the Italians. Sounds like a good start to me (but harsh to ball all Italians though, but worth it to get rid of the scousers and UEFA).


Hahahahahaha getting better and better tonight

A lot of teams beat us, do a lap of honour and don't stop running. They live too long on one good result. I remember Jimmy Adamson crowing after Burnley had beaten us once and that his players were in a different league. At the end of the season they were.

Well, what can I say. I said last night I was hoping for heartbreak for the plastic fans with their plastic flags and I got it. It's took me the best part of two and a half hours to stop laughing so I could actually type this.

You've gotta feel for John Terry. Out of the Champions League whilst within touching distance of the final and half an hour later, Sir Alan sends him home from the Apprentice, what a bloody night he's had.

But, I'll hold my hands up, that Drogba, always thought he was a bit of a diva, or should that be diver? Anyway, the way he stayed on his feet when everyone around him, whether it be security, his own players or opposition players were pulling him and pushing him away from the referee was commendable, I knew he had it in him, I knew he was strong as an ox, so thanks for that Didier lad and I can only apologise for ever doubting you.

So, who's cried more, Lord God Jose Mourinho or Terry? Neither, it was me, I pi$$ed meself senseless laughing at them luverly cockerneys on their way to Rome, oops, I mean home.

Only problem now is, I can't see Barca getting near Man U, so I don't even know why I'm laughing, but I am, just for the moment. :lol:
