They are unarguably a big club now.  But they never managed this under their own steam - Harding & later Abramovich’s money was needed.

 

PS for anyone too young to remember mediocre Chelsea - everyone ALWAYS hated them, even when they were London’s fourth club.  Combat 18, the headhunters, the shed.  Cunts, all of them. 

 

Yeah, no one is arguing Chelsea's rise to glory in the last 20-30 years, we are really talking prior to the influx of foreign money when Premier clubs had to generate their own funds to prove their value. When Ken Bates was the owner I recall him being particularly shit. But English football wasn't as big a deal back then, it was probably the era before satellite television took the Premier league around the world.

 

Younger fans just assume Chelsea were always huge, but they were a mid-table club who didn't win that much prior to Harding's involvement. I don't think they had a massive ground capacity either, still not sure their local catchment area is that big even now.

Gutted this pig is going to be there next week. Hopefully we can continue to break our curses (BT & Saudi top at Everton) and beat this lump into oblivion next week.

 

Shame as I don't mind Leeds at all, really torn now between them and Everton. Hopefully both drop.

Does anyone have the game when we last actually beat Allardyce? I'm struggling to recall.

 

Surely not when he was at fucking Bolton :lol: 

 

Jonas & Sissoko, last game of the season to stay up under Carver.

Allardyce is shite man, stop fretting. WTF is that prehistoric dinosaur going to against Wilson, Isak and our pair of Joe's? Fuck all. Sweet fuck all.

This! Fretters gotta fret!

All he can do is get them to sit deep and scrap. Which could result in about the same amount of points that were going to be achieved before. 

 

It's only 4 games, it's literally impossible to do anything meaningful.

Lol at Leeds posting a stat that shows he has roughly a 1 in 5 win ratio when he's only there for 4 games.

Was like when Everton announced Lampard as Manager using his playing stats

Other than the fact it’s closer to 1 in 3 but okay
