[Jimmy Floyd]

Michy

Conte's celebration there was bordering on unhinged.

[CJay]

That goal stemmed directly from Cahill(?)'s slice which was greeted with loud ironic cheers from the West Brom fans.

[Adamski]

West Brom will win tonight just to piss me off more than it'll probably piss Spurs off.

+1

[Giggles]

Job done

Still don't know if it's Conte or just no Mourinho, but it's worked.

[Jimmy Floyd]

That goal stemmed directly from Cahill(?)'s slice which was greeted with loud ironic cheers from the West Brom fans.

I think Pulis has a 20,000 odd personal support he takes with him regardless of the club he's managing.

[Giggles]

Nah every teams supporters jeer when something like that happens an opposition player, not just Pulis team ones.

[Jimmy Floyd]

We've been absolutely bollocks in this second half as well. If Rondon wasn't Akinbiyi's regen we'd have lost.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Now, where's the bloke with the red face.

[Kikó]

Great credit to Chelsea. Made it look easy this season.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Conte is almost touching Ranieri heights in terms of likeable Chelsea managers. He just loves it. Probably got us 15-20 points in bungs as well.

[CJay]

Conte is made to look very small when everybody keeps lifting him up like that.

[Reg]

Well done Conte, he's done excellently. Although I wonder if Stoke would have won the title if they'd bought Kante.

Conte is almost touching Ranieri heights in terms of likeable Chelsea managers. He just loves it. Probably got us 15-20 points in bungs as well.

Have to admit it'd be exciting if English football had its own case of Calciopoli.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Kanté was a don in those celebrations. Just doesn't care. Probably has bigger fish to fry.

[Lewis]

Conte is almost touching Ranieri heights in terms of likeable Chelsea managers. He just loves it. Probably got us 15-20 points in bungs as well.

He's Jurgen 'Jurgen Klopp' Klopp with worse English and a dozen facelifts. Italian idiot.

[Giggles]

He's Jurgen 'Jurgen Klopp' Klopp with worse English and a dozen facelifts. Italian idiot.

And not a fraud.

[Lewis]

It might be a bit uncharitable to say Smallpockets writ large, but, seeing as Juventus have only improved since he went, we'll see how it pans out when there are more than two teams (one of which is fucking Tottenham) with their acts together. If he retains it then fair play mate. Whoever said you look like Barry Manilow was completely wrong.

[Jimmy Floyd]

He's Jurgen 'Jurgen Klopp' Klopp with worse English and a dozen facelifts. Italian idiot.

I can't think of two more different managers than him and Klopp. Well, maybe Rinus Michels and Barry Fry. But you know what I mean.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Why am I now looking at Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Adebayo Akinfenwa somehow squeezing themselves onto the same bench in front of a bunch of pissed up children?

[Lewis]

I meant in terms of their touchline 'antics', which, if done by a British manager, would rightly make them a national hate figure.

[Reg]

Klopp, Conte, and Pochettino are average and overrated.

Management according to Lewis.

Oh, and Moyes would be winning things at United if given time.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Akinfenwa is wearing a 'Beast Mode' cap indoors and speaks worse English than Hasselbaink. Someone put him out of his misery.

[ScousePig]

The mags flying a plane with a banner over ours tomorrow, and they've actually managed to make it more cringeworthy than ours by bringing cancer into it.

http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/...d-fan-13026216

In fairness it sounds like there was quite a big attempt to get it stopped, or at least the words changed.

[Abelxaviersdodgyhairdo]

I meant in terms of their touchline 'antics', which, if done by a British manager, would rightly make them a national hate figure.

Or a laughing stock.



British managers don't react that way because they simply don't win enough games to warrant it. In fact the only British manager in the top ten right now is the one who just lost to Chelsea or the Leicester manager if you're wanting to include his four or five wins too.

It's not great but then with over £4K going to the three children who are battling it, is it that bad? Poor taste perhaps but it's raised money that could potential save them. Every silver cloud...

Of course, but using cancer and putting it on a banner to get one over on your rivals is pretty crass. Just raise the money and do a flyover reminding us how shit we are.

[Shindig]

I wouldn't say it's in poor taste. It's accurate. Two clubs in different leagues both supporting cancer charities. We can't change the fact they're in different leagues.

[Lewis]

I don't remember saying that about David Moyes, but yeah pretty much.

[ScousePig]

Honestly? I'm surprised at that. Most of the mags on here and those that frequent our forum are pretty sound, and I think you're the first that hasn't found it awful.

[Samadini]

Unfortunately the poll with what should be on the banner was put forward to morons on Facebook and the guy in charge of it all appears to be a serious bellend. Him and his mates seemed to just offer people out for a fight if they asked for it to be changed.

[Magic]

What a dreadfully boring season.

[Pleb]

So sign Kante and you will get a league title then?

Interesting

[Shindig]

Honestly? I'm surprised at that. Most of the mags on here and those that frequent our forum are pretty sound, and I think you're the first that hasn't found it awful.

Benefit of the doubt. Poorly phrased but probably not mean spirited. Although they could've avoided all this if they just replaced 'leagues' with 'loyalties'.

[Offshore Toon]

I thought it was referring to Jack 'Cancer' Colback.

[Adamski]

Klopp, Conte, and Pochettino are average and overrated.

Management according to Lewis.

Don't forget the best of them all 'Pepwatch'

[Shindig]

Is Martinez Watch still in effect?

[Dquincy]

Would Chelsea have won the league if they had been in the Champions League?

Not sure, but that's an interesting point.

Next question?

[Kikó]

When do Chelsea start having history?

6 league titles, a few Fa cups, European and uefa cup. Must be getting close.

[John]

Would Chelsea have won the league if they had been in the Champions League?

Not sure, but that's an interesting point.

Next question?

What the Dickens is this? You're proposing a question, offering your own non answer and praising your own thinking, then dismissing it to invite another question.

[Dquincy]

It's a new posting style I'm trying out.

[Baz]

I've accidentally bet on Boro today so cmon Negredo lad.

[Lewis]

Don't forget the best of them all 'Pepwatch'

Yeah, don't forget. He proves the point.

[Shindig]

I've forgotten how weird it is to finish our season weeks before everyone else. Gives me a chance to watch the BBL Playoff final, I guess. 'mon Eagles. And the North West 200, unless somebody dies.

Okay, it's delayed by weather. And John McGuinness has broken his ribs and spine.

[Gray Fox]

Assuming City and Arsenal both pick up their expected routine wins today, there'll be the bottle job, to end all bottle jobs going on tomorrow.

I want to go into hiding already.

[Shindig]

Face up to it. This time last year you were preparing for a Europa League final.

[Offshore Toon]

Leicester did one over on City earlier in the season, didn't they? Its hardly a formality with their new-found form as well.

[Abelxaviersdodgyhairdo]

I would rather Manchester City take top four over Arsenal as I think they would be more of a threat in the long run than Wenger's quarter finalists. I wouldn't put my house on both teams winning today though as each game has the potential cause a surprise. Leicester have looked good in recent weeks and I can't remember the last time Arsenal won away at Stoke.

I also want Swansea to win against Sunderland so the Crystal Palace tomorrow becomes even bigger than it's already looking.

[Adamski]

Yeah, don't forget. He proves the point.

I wonder if Peps got a Lewis watch? How do you reckon he thinks you're doing?

[Magic]

Fucking hell I just checked Fiorentina v Lazio past 6 games to see if it might be worth watching. Both teams got results like 5-4, 7-3, 6-2 etc.

[CJay]

Woof. Did someone not score a penalty like that the other day? Good call.
