blueboy1905 Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 Think you will see a stark difference from one Manchester club who were literally in party mode to another Manchester club desperate to secure Champions League football. I predict a proper ass whooping 4-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev61 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Where I live I dislike the Man U fans more than any other so I would like a win but not really bothered. The end of the season usually starts our holiday in Portugal,but my wife is reluctant to leave our oldest cat who is showing signs of dementia. I'm tempted to go on my own but really how could you?

The bloke on the other side asks why the seat is vacant and the old boy tells him that it used to be his wife's but she died. That's terrible the man said, but couldn't you get someone else to take the ticket? No said the old guy, they are all at her funeral. (Sorry about the cat mate, one of our dogs is in a similar situation. Sucks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boratsbrother Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Disappointing that one of our biggest away games of the season has come way to late to mean anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes the cat situation is sad.She has been with us for twelve years and survived longer than her four kittens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xceleryx Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 For anyone interested here is Frank's pre-match presser. An interesting tidbit being Lampard addressing how he's stressed wanting the team to do the basics - running, commitment on the pitch, etc. And that since he's been here he's learned reasons as to why this hasn't happened on a consistent basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Who’s going to start tonight… don’t care as it will not make a blind bit of difference. I do hope Chukwuemeka gets a start though, along with Mudryk and Madueke… expect to see Sterling, Havertz and Kovacic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Mudryk and Madueke start… party time! 1-2 defeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 I genuinely can’t remember a time where I’ve gone into EVERY game as a Chelsea fan, fully expecting to lose, but that is absolutely where I’m at now, which is somewhat depressing. So why, WHY, do I keep watching them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm embarrassed to admit how many times this season I've said "this is the last match i'm watching". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 The same as the rest of us, I'd guess, Sam ... a mixture of habit (what else is there to do on a Thursday night?), loyalty, Micawberishness, and sheer bloodymindedness. Let's hope they make this a night to remember. For the right reasons, for once, please lads .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
