It's too early in the season to be bribing Tom with sexual favours so he doesn't get mardy after the game


Thought Wright-Phillips was amazing in second half, Terry is always the rock

Unfortunately, Chelsea were in their black away kit![]()
I'm not sure if it's that Chelsea played poorly (at least, in the 2nd half. I don't think they were there the 1st half... dopplegangers), or Wigan really just played that well but, as Mourinho so humbly put it, it certainly didn't look like a match between the champions of the Premiership and Championship. Pretty much an even match-up.
Crespo's strike was something akin to devine intervention. Terry and Gallas were good. Maka had an off day. Shaun was threatening (though I thought Robben, whom he replaced, had a couple of good runs too... but his defending sucked). Our fullbacks looked useless. And why didn't Frank let Del Horno take that last free kick?
OK. Rant over. Just happy we got the 3 points![]()

I think next week's game is on network TV here... Think I'll avoid embarassment by staying in and order a pizza![]()
Del Horno does look a bit like Bridge, with a better haircut and a light bit of facework![]()
Morbyd said:We have Chelsea TV too (included in our cable package without extra fees... how's that for progress!). It was great during the pre-season.
The problem is that we don't have Sky at home, except for Sky News. The Sky system costs a couple thousand dollars to install on top of the monthly fees.. though I've probably spent that much at SportLand by now![]()
The Russian network Sport shows a lot of home games, though sometimes with a half-hour time delay.![]()
