Sifu Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Chelsea set to appoint Di Matteo permanent manager. It'll go well for a while but then the usual/inevitable thing will happen. That is, once things go wrong or once Chelsea go on a bad run of form, Abramovich will have a few (angry) words. I'll give Di Matteo, at most, a season and a half. Maybe Abramovich is only looking for someone to keep the seat warm for 12 months before seducing Pep... Hmmm, very plausible... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how it's being spun over here. not sure why Di Matteo would accept that myself, if he leaves now its as good as its going to get for him, champions league and fa cup winning manager and could easily get himself a good job. However a 12 month contract as it seems he's taking a risk to his reputation without even the nice paycheck for when Roman gets bored and decides to spice things up by sacking him.

Guest Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 The Italia 90 mascot was awesome! Iconic as fuck. Probably the one mascot you see and you instantly get what tournament it was from.

Guest Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Italia 90 was be far my favourite tournament. Probably down to age as much as anything...but it will remain strongly in my memory until my last day on earth. I was only 6 and I think I remember more of that than the one in South Africa.

Anderson Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I don't really have any good memories of any WC. All I can remember from 98 is the Argie match, 02 & 06 were both disappointing due to the high hopes I foolishly had for England and South Africa was just shite from top to bottom.

Guest BooBoo Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Loved them mini footballs. If you collected 50 ring pulls, you could send away for a gold coloured one. One kid in my school had one and was revered briefly as a God. Loved that summer, playing football on the field with those "soccaballs" as I believe they were called. Italia 90 wasn't that good a tournament overall (few goals and the best footballing sides were ousted by cheats and dullards) but England's great side that summer had everyone behind them. Such a contrast to today! In fact there was a lot of off the field stuff that made Italia 90 great: Nessun Dorma, New Order, those England shell suits, Bobby dancing, soccaballs, Panini stickers, Ciao. I think a few years later for the Olympics, Coke did a similar offer but with yo yos. Again, if you didnt have one, you were a nobody. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
