    He's already lost. There's no point.

    His only choice is to reapply, and the FA will probably make some tweaks to the rules to make sure nothing like this happens again...

    Should we have a poll on the subject of whether the wonderful modding on this board has influenced the success of the team this season? <laugh>

    Athletico Madrid now leading Chelsea 3-1 at Stamford Bridge ... whilst I will always support any British team in Europe I must say that the prospect of an all Madrid final has a certain romance and I will be rooting for Athletico should they get there (as now looks likely)....

    I was personally hoping for a Athletico win, and am glad that they got it.

    I have a strong dislike for Chelsea, always have. Not sure what it is. Maybe it's just the Chelsea fans I know... But they are so ungracious in defeat AND victory.

    I'm glad that Mourinho didn't pull off another "tactical masterclass" <laugh> IMO Mou is a bit of a one trick pony. Granted, he's good at completely sucking the life out of games, and has a good record against the top sides. But that is all quite irrelevant when you lose at home to Sunderland.

    He couldn't take Madrid to a Champions League final, even with his negative brand of anti-football that he even got Real Mardid to play (!), much to the disgust of their fans. Ancelotti has managed it in his first season.

    Well done to Atheltico though <applause>

    If Real play like they did in Germany, they will be unstopable.

    Ive no problem with Joses tactics, its the same way they won the Champions League under DiMatteo!

    True, but the argument of "style versus winning" seems to be moot, when the "winning" isn't actually winning!!

    I wouldn´t mind LC Staying in the prem or winning the FA cup or lge cup with these sort of tactics. People forget football has more than one way of being played, some times it´ll work & other times it won´t. I just don´t get people moaning about it. :emoticon-0118-yawn:

    I guess it's one of them things where you complain when someone else does it, but would be praising it if you are the one doing!

    It's just disappointing that Mourinho isn't good enough to get his teams playing good football. It's not like it's impossible, many managers do it.

    I appreciate that a lesser team going to a much bigger team and playing like that to get a result. If we went to Chelsea next season, parked 20 buses, and come away with a 1-0 win, I'd be ecstatic.

    It's just disappointing to see a team like Chelsea do it, when they have the money/players to actually win while playing something half decent at the same time.

    I see your point, made me think that hes playing like that to get the message through about getting a top class striker.

    No, he's done the same with Inter, Real...

    He knew his Real team were worse than Barcelona technically, and couldn't change that in his 3/4 years there.

    By the end, they were still playing their time-wasting/feigning/defensive game against them.

    What does that tell you?

    My wife renewed the season tickets today - a huge queue of 2 people in front of her. She was told that new cards will be issued this year (June), which will then be used season after season. For purchases at the club shop, you can still use existing cards for the discount, until the new one is received.
