So, you're trying to say that Cech takes his goal kicks long. Shocking!
And according to the newspapers last season, Liverpool were the No. 1 long-ball team in the league.
As I remember it, Chelsea played a mixed bag in the first half to much success. Certainly not all long-ball.my main recollection of the 2nd half and the press i've read, is of drogba backing into agger and running him ragged.
which newspapers would that be?
the atmosphere looked s to the h to the one to the t. couldn't believe my eyes when 5 mins after you'd scored, it was like people had fallen asleep on their seats.
whatever you say, too many corporates and not enough one man went to mow, too much posh garage and not enough shed end. i'd be gutted to be a chelsea fan, i'd love the success but not if it meant my club had to hand out 35,000 cheap flags to start an atmosphere.
btw - chelsea stewards were instructed to take all banners off liverpool fans.
That's what Tom says - although he loves the winning things for a change, he says there are so many muppets now at Stamford Bridge who've jumped on the Chelsea bandwagon in the last few years - where were they when they were saving the Bridge
On a tangent, one thing he did say tho was some of the Liverpool fans were the scummiest of the scum and were singing songs about Matthew Harding and Alan Ball dieing
that's what some of my chelsea mates say too, hence why i said it.
the alan ball thing was rubbish. i heard that one five live after the game but then all the reporters made it clear that it was the LFC fans who started the applause and the chelski fans followed. that was repeated in the mirror today.
not heard about matthew harding, you'll always get d1ckheads. same as the michael shields chanting and hillsborough and munich and whatever else at nearly every game........
I'm only repeating what Tom said that he'd heard - like you said there's always going to be a few nobs about
s'alright, i'll shoot the messenger anyway
thing is, it doesn't take much (like 1 misinformed press report) or in this case, a caller on a phone in and before you know it, it's around forums and messageboards and being picked up by tabloid rags.
on 5 live and talk sport over the last couple of days, the reporters have rubbished the myth. alan ball is a well respected hero on merseyside
Duh. I guess I figured you were smart enough to understand that in this case a quarter was just a shorhand way of writing half of the half
I'm pretty convinced Ballack is just a machine. German engineered, no less
Duh. I guess I figured you were smart enough to understand that in this case a quarter was just a shorhand way of writing half of the half
