Rags v Chelsea

[Deleted member 41424]

at the end of the day they are still 2 points behind us. Pressure is all on them. They have to play next Saturday and get a result against Liverpool. Another draw will be perfect at Old Trafford. Leaves us knowing where we stand before we head to Villa Park. The pressures all on the rags!

if chelsea throw away 3 points the rags are level. its a good result from our end

Even McLeish could get 3 points in that situation. It takes a special brand of fucktard to fail as badly as AVB did there.

They play poo' next week as well

I wouldn't build your hopes up for that one. If the self-pitying Klansmen can't beat the likes of Sunderland, Swansea, Norwich, Stoke or Blackburn at Klan HQ, then how much chance have they got at Vermin Villas?

Liverpoo always step up against better opposition. I wouldn't rule anything out.

very true but they only play the rags next

I'm not usually one for this, but the harping on about the 'Busby Babes', fantastic tradition and never say die attitude from Tyler really irritated me today, he was practically dying for United score. It was like watching the game on MUTV, it really is ridiculous.

Put it this way ..... I fully expected rags to beat a Chelsea side with no lampard, Terry, cole and drogba........ But they couldn't - even with a very soft pen decision.


So in cold light of day ..... It's 2 points dropped

I agree with you. I would have taken a draw before the game, considering Chelsea's inconsistency.

1 point, 0 points, there isn't really a huge difference when all is said and done. Teams have lost titles because they've drawn too many games. 3 points is the big difference, there isn't much between 1 and 0. If anything, I'm encouraged by their defensive weaknesses, if Chelsea had brought on Romeu, and gone defensive straight after going 3-0 up, that wouldn't have happened. We would not have squandered a 3-0 lead in that manner. I don't think there's anything to worry about. The media will make it sound like United have won, and they're top, but its two points dropped in the cold light of day. It would have been the same if it finished 0-0. The ball is in our court.

"maybe they're getting a little help from on high from the Bubsy Babes"

Is there a bigger **** in sports broadcasting than Martin Tyler?

Agreed...sycophantic shite.

Yeah true this. We wont lose to blackburn at home. Of that I am certain. The only two matches that really worry me in our run-up is newcastle away and united at home. By today's standards, we will rip chelsea a new one when they visit us.
