Miguelito07 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 The team will have 8 days after playing Brentford. So expect a slow and ponderous start. Go in at half time with the score 0-0. Poch’s team talk follows and lose the match 0-2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edited for clarity!..I bloody hate Monday night games..and Friday for that matter....takes the balance out of weekends...Friday means a "forgotten' result and Monday an afterthought!..Regardless of what teams are playing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertles86 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I love a stat. We've got a 100% win rate on Monday night footy for the last 4 years! Scoring 13 and conceding only 2...so we won't score and will lose i guess. Fulham 0-2 Chelsea, 2024 Spurs 1-4 Chelsea, 2023 Palace 1-3 Chelsea, 2023 Chelsea 2-0 Everton, 2021 Chelsea 2-0 Newcastle, 2021 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueboy1905 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Land of the Giants vs a bunch of underwhelming midgets. What could possibly go wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonb Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 After a week's break I think the advantage of being at home is less, due to Newcastle having more time to prepare. Also we always seem sluggish after more than a four day break, let's hope they do to. Betting odds will be probably be evens. I'll wait until I see the line-ups....

He'll play three CB's again and possibly Sanchez too as he'll be scared of the big boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope not, we should be beating Newcastle at home for me, having said that I can remember them getting the odd win when we were much stronger than now.

Forgot about Gordon was thinking more about Guimares, though of course Gordon can also be a match winner and lets not forget that Almiron can have one of those occasional blinders. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the 0-2 when they scored that absolutely ridiculous goal that swerved an insane amount from the left side of our box, attacking the Shed?

My memory is the other one was far better, a more deliberate attempt. Know a few Newcastle fans who are not happy about a Monday night trip and I sympathise. I think their away form has been much better than home form recently, which is ominous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF also Everton and Man Utd - I feel their pain. That Cisse was recently trying to get a game at a 2nd Division or Conference side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
