Football

Doesn't Abramovich learn? You can't expect to improve your style of play if you make knee jerk decisions everytime the team has a poor run and allow the senior players to dictate football decisions.

Exactly.

Chelsea are such a shit club. They seem to be doing everything possible to lower the tone of the Premiership. Can we move them to Russia or something?

Where's the humble pie?

I'm not sure how involved Abramovich is involved in the decision making process at Chelsea other than player transfers BUT since that Emenalo guy walked in we have seen even more managers than we did previously. Not sure if there's a link but this guy has from what I know no credentials and still seems to occupy a pretty influential position.

Di Matteo can walk away safe in the knowledge he's the only manager to win Chelsea the Champions League, which he'll most likely remain for the foreseeable, in spite of being the only one Abramovich had never purposefully lined up - hopefully the irony of that's not lost on Abramovich himself. All else of his plotting has gone to shit. He may as well appoint himself as manager cum striker. All the money in the world yet clueless as a donkey.

Di Matteo is, at least, the second manager that Roman didn't purposely line up. The first one was Avram Grant after the Mourinho fiasco.

In all fairness, I reckon I could run the transfer policy at Chelsea the way it's done at the moment. I wouldn't have bought Torres, then again if Chelsea hadn't bought Torres we wouldn't have had two years of fun and games with those shitbags from Liverpool. I guess it's all just a really expensive way of making a mockery out of the game.

Double negative?

Know Nothing.

Eight managers in 12 years.
That's more than Liverpool have had in over 30.

What will happen to them without Champions League football next season. Will be very very interesting

Who has hit more of rock bottom, Chelsea or the Catholic Church? The news really is fun today, two things I hate with a passion both floundering in shit

I'd like to buy this fella a pint

Well, Liverpool have had five in the past 12 years. Better, but not massively more so.

About as many WHU had in the whole of last century.

Equally, about as many as WHU have had this century.

Beat me to it...

Better?

Never won the Premier League. Only one FA Cup....

Moar managers = moar trophies?

In general, yes.

The one and only exception to that rule are Manchester Utd.

Forest have had a lot of managers recently and won fuck all.

Latest rumour is David Moyes. Please let it not be true.

I'd take Moyesy...

Good trolling.

Dicki should take note.

Better?

Never won the Premier League. Only one FA Cup....

uefa cup, super cup, league cup 3 times

Oh yeah and the Champions League.. Mostly under Rafa

Managers, coaches and trainers all have their shelf live, at Chelsea it just happens to be significantly shorter than the acceptable average in the game.

Do I agree, no. Roman can frankly do absolutely anything he wants with his club. They day he decides to call it a day we will have managers that stay on for a length of time but in the meantime Roman will continue to pursue trophies rather than mid table mediocrity.

Didn't Houllier win at least 3 of those trophies?

The Super Cup isn't a fucking trophy, it's a (late) pre-season friendly. You'll be claiming the Charity Shield next.

Oh.
