    Well now, don´t think me senile
    But I fancy we´ll get a draw,
    And also do it with a smile
    When Chelsea draw up at our door,
    And Mr. Villas-Boas A.
    Has already been airing views,
    On Lambert P. and how we play
    On various internet news,
    And although with a pinch of salt
    One should regard such pre-match talk,
    It´s clear he´s not that sure he´ll halt
    Our progress or the Lambert walk,
    Which in a way does go to show
    We haven´t all been dreaming this,
    Our steady progress blow by blow
    Is as real as a live cobra´s hiss,
    And talking of venom to strike
    If the slightest chance should come their way,
    We have two who´re ready to spike
    Any defensive lapse on the day,
    And I remember old J.T.
    In game one, deep in his own net,
    Just failing to prevent our Holty
    From scoring, how could we forget,
    And for much of that game we held
    Our own, despite going behind,
    And really we were only felled
    By the pen, which was a touch unkind,
    And that day we weren´t so streetwise
    As we are now, for this rematch,
    Which could be a joy to the eyes
    Especially if a point we can snatch,
    So it looks promising I would say
    For our form is as good as can be,
    If Chelsea come up here to play
    We could be in for a rare old spree. OTBC

    Love it RBF! Especially being reminded of 'old JT' in the back of the net!

    I have also predicted a draw, and would not be completely surprised if we nicked a win!

    Hi RBF bor, looking back on our recent meeting with Chelsea is ok but I much prefer to look to the future, a bright yellow and green future. I conclude, a point is ok with me.

    Incidentally comparing us with Swansea, we haven't taken a point off the top flight in this league. Time to make amends and emulate them.

    Now trying to permutate our team selection this week. Wish PL would give some indication how his mind works. LOL.

    That's easy Norkie. He logs onto here, reads RBF's thread, and then picks something totally different to what we have put down. <laugh>

    Doesn't a point away to Liverpool count?

    That one can't count - nearly all teams draw at Anfield this season

    Thai bor, you beat me to it. Pool are frequently dropping points at home. I meant the really big teams. The teams with prospects.

    Maestro bor, I think you hit the nail on the head. PL looks at our selections and says: What do they know about picking a team.

    I think he is right. LOL. Whatever the team, he definitely knows what he is doing. Been a long while since we could say that about our manager.
