Chelsea have history?

Is this the very same Chelsea that we were playing in Div2 in the late 80's?

well that forms part of their history - we have similar bleak periods since then too - its all historical. History isn't just trophies

Really? We beat them last season. So; just over a year then. Surely they had longer runs under GPC?

GPC has had longer runs, but that was on the hard shoulder.

They've lost a proud record today the worst ever start to a top flight season, 12 straight defeats in 1930, its been taken by Benevento in Italy's Serie A, who lost their 13th today, in 'fergie' time as well.

Damn those pesky Italians : )

Looks like some people on here have had a sense of humour by-pass.

I feel a bit of a tit now coz I posted her/his tweet on here which started this all off. Being the tit I am.I took the bait on twitter. Being the middle aged man I am I should have realised it was a wum account.
What a total tit I am.

Me too.

Any mention in the press that they fielded the most expensive team ever yesterday? 329m

Or that they had one player who cost more than the entire Newcastle team!

I've not seen any but the guardian are running an article that mentions they have included a youth player in every squad since 1937.

Just for balance of course!

Conveniently omitting the lack of football during WW2!
