Fairly standard for a qualifier, just like the first rounds of the worthless cup, really.

23,000 is a sell-out at the library isn't it, Zico! ;)

Well, vannizzle, a couple more years and we will have as many hangers on as you, and then we can fill up the ground.

Quality, not quantity.

Quality???

We are talking about Chelsea fans arent we?? Anyway it doesnt matter you should get a full house every game regardless.....

Ooh, tickled your taste buds there vannizzle, didn't I!? Every club in London has their favourite Spurs song, often the same song - Arsenal on their own have about 6. Most of them are anti-semetic, but that's just the way it is. Songs are there for atmosphere - if we didn't have any songs to wind away fans up, and if they didn't have any songs to wind us up, we wouldn't have any atmosphere - which reminds me of Old Trafford.

Will Abramovich be annoyed? No.

As for filling the ground every game, like I said previously, if we had the plastic fans and hangers on that you do, then we would fill the ground.

Singing racist songs is okay cos it adds to the atmosphere, thats pure bollocks, either that or your a card carrying BNP member.

Yeah our crowd has got very quiet over the years many reasons for this but the main one being we're spoilt, so we dont get that excited when your chelseas or wolves come to play we usually wait for the big games, it shouldnt be that way but at least we turn up.

First of all, kindly furnish me with a rascist song that is sung at Chelsea. And I mean now, in the present day. Not one you remember from a hooligan documentary from the 80's. What I think you have in mind are songs that died out years ago. The songs I'm talking about, refer to the possesion (or not) of a foreskin for the most part, and while anti-semetic, I doubt they have caused much psychological scarring.

If you were playing Zilina tonight, 2-0 up from the away trip, Old Trafford would not be full. 45,000 at most.

Well this to me looks like a song about Jews, still racist if it is.

Well it was friend of mine (a spurs fan) who pointed this out, just mailed him so he'll get back to me with the details, he seemed to think they we're still being sung....

The last bit is hypothetical, its been along time since I saw a crowd that low at OT, even the early rounds of the wortless cup we get 50K+ the only barometer I can use is a completely pointless freindly last year pre-season against Boca we got 55K.

Say what you want about our fans, the majority of season ticket holders are in the Manchester district, yes we have alot of out of towners but they must be true fans if they are prepared to travel all that to watch a game, any game for that matter....

Yeah it must require real loyalty to fly in on your private jet, pass the travel time by bonking a blonde half your age, fill up on a couple of whiskeys and settle down in your comfy seat away from the local scum :D.

The worthless cup games are included in your season ticket though. This game was £30-32 a ticket. After paying £750 for my season ticket, another £100 at least on the group stage matches (plus any away trips I fancy) I don't have the money to waste £32 on a game that was effectively over two weeks ago. That's why a lot of fans didn't go - meanwhile, I believe Celtic are doing a deal for ST holders to get in cheap tonight.

Christ!I thought ours were tight! We get worthless and FA Cup games gratis.
 
Can't really call it the "worthless" cup anymore though seen as the new sponser is Carling. Just thought I'd point that out.... ;)

"And it shall be the worthless cup aslong as the scousers keep winning it "

Im sure thats written in stone somewhere :)
 
I think it'll be known as that for quite some time. Especially as you can't get anything good from 'Carling'.

The 'no one is caring' cup?

Awful :roll: , I'll get me coat.

Now i understand why there was only 23,000 at the game.

I really didn't know it was known as the Carling Cup, thanks for pointing that out hutch. :mrgreen:
 
Makalele apparently to sign for Chelsea in the next 48 hours.

Although i think they already have enough midfielders i think that Makalele would be a great signing as they could really do with a defensive midfielder.

So, only 4 days to go... how many more signings will there be?

Any other rumours going about?

Beat you by fractions of a second! There will be no more if this goes through (none in January either) but I think by the amount of signings we have made, we have written off winning the Champions league or league this season. No team can accomodate the sheer number of players we have bought and get them playing cohesively in the space of a few months. I think by April we'll be looking pretty good, but it will probably be too late by then.

Our centenary next year........ ;)

You could be right Terry. The fact that Smertin has gone straight to Porstmouth on a season long long says something too. Hmmmmmm *cups chin with hand

Edit: Portsmouth even. Wouldn't know where Porstmouth is. :l
 
Forssell set for Birmingham loan

Mikael Forssell has agreed terms on a new four-year contract at Chelsea - but could be loaned out to Birmingham.

The Finnish striker has agreed a new deal that will keep him on the Stamford Bridge books until 2007.

But boss Claudio Ranieri has revealed his intention to send Forssell on an extended loan to St Andrews.

Ranieri, who has adopted a similar policy by letting Carlton Cole join Charlton on loan, has an abundance of strikers after signing Hernan Crespo and Adrian Mutu.

He is likely to let Forsell leave in order for him to get regular first team experience rather than remaining on the Chelsea bench.
