The Battle of Stamford Bridge

[Verbal]

What year did we win at Stamford Bridge with a Terry own goal?

13th December 2003

Quiz for non-clickers: who scored our other goal that day? Bonus points for naming the home scorer... (not JT)

N'Gotty for us I seem to remember?

[Wandering Willy]

Anyone suggest a good pub for meeting prior to the game. Is the 8 Bells a possibility or too far?

Too far to walk. Get out at Fulham Broadway and turn right. In about 30 yards you'll find the Slug and Lettuce. That'll do.

I'm not going by the way.

[Wandering Willy]

Cheers GtE. There's about 7 of us ( 2 Chelsea).

Just make this lad run at Cahill.lol

95% theirs was Crespo. Ours, I think, Bruno. Or Jaidi. No, Bruno.

[Gail Platz]

I'm off in a corporate box for this one! I think I'm going to be the only Bolton fan in there too. Those prawn sandwiches will be flying all over the place if we manage to get something out of this.

4-4-2, not 4-5-1 ?

I think that's a guess from a know nowt.

I'd be surprised to see Klasnic start again this season.

Sounds about right. i'm quietly excited about tomorrow. I really think we can get a result.

Domed. Totally & utterly domed.

[Salford Trotter]

On paper we haven't a chance but if OC has faith in the formation we know that works and shows ambition with the personnel on the field (Ryo and Ream to start) we might have half a chance. Now, if ever, will be the time to take Chelsea at home

Double reverse southpaw googly doomed.

[2399]

Hopefully Bogdán gets some revenge and keeps a clean sheet.

[mrpiccollo]

id sooner we lined up more like this


GK : bogdan

Rb: steinsson Cb:wheater Cb:Knight lb: ricketts (cross fingers for no fudge ups )

CDM : reo coker CDM : muamba (allways solid in midfeild with these 2 here)

Cam: MDavies/tuncay allows mdavies some freedom with players totally surrounding him also if tuncay plays can give him freedom to flair and bring smiles to our faces ..... hopefully

RF : smeagles Lm: petrov (eagles on offensive duties moving inside/ petrov holding wide position crosses x infinitum

ST: Klasnic or Ngog id literally choose either today i say klas as we need a goal and ngog isnt freescoring but perhaps best option would be to have ngog on from start to be subbed for klasnic later on

[Horza]

I will not watch this as we are going to get caned, 4-1 or suchlike. Torres will score.
