I find it hilarious when people brag about titles that were won before most of us were even born. All that really matters are the ones that you've witnessed and have affected you; the rest are numbers in a history book. Would I rather Chelsea had won 10 titles but all before I was born or the 4 I've actually witnessed? Mmmm....let me see
Agreed. Its not like we are even talking the 60's or 70's tho with the Geordies, but the 30's!!!! Before World War II ffs!!
Aw come on now, that's not nice. Still I suppose the barcodes could be champions of the Championship next season.
hehe Love the way people are so easily irritated by almost anything Watford says! He rarely trolls, I would say at best he takes true facts and situations and puts a slight anti-Chelsea bias on them, as you would expect from a QPR fan. Only once or twice have I read comments from him and thought "You are just being a dick mate!". But you would think he is the Wum-Lord Supreme from the reactions he elicits from some people on here.
Ok maybe more. Most of his WUMs are little snide digs in larger comments etc. Just ignore them. He isn't overly disruptive like HIAG and Matth were in times passed, and he isn't filled with vitriol and bile like Ellers But really, I think people should calm down, should he break the forum rules, I will be the first one on his back, that I can promise you.
For as long as this site has existed there's been one or two who go disproportionately nuts at the slightest post critical of anything to do with Chelsea. Equally there's one in particular who seems to be the self-appointed PR machine for the club. Both are fine, football is tribal after all, but you'd think they'd prefer one of the many Chelsea-only forums out there. Never really known why certain posters get so wound up over what I post (or the way I post?). Ossie is the obvious example but I think he's a nice bloke who lives in a bit of an online fantasy on here. The only genuinely nasty person on here from memory was CPofL. Too soon to say about the others. Time will tell.
Agree with this. Glad you stuck up for him as theres a few people as i thought i might have to. There are a number of moderates and more objective amongst a number of fans on these boards even if it is against your own club. You, watford r and mito are included.
Occasionally yes, but mostly the points I raise or questions I ask are genuine. Between you and me, I quite enjoy the reaction.
If you ever go outside of London ask someone how they would refer to someone from Sunderland, believe me they will not refer to them as cockneys , every one of Sunderland's titles was won on a level playing field, not bought, as far as history is concerned I had always thought it was considered fairly important in England, which one of the four teams do you think will purchase the title next season ?
Not newcastle thats for sure . Much rather we are buying trophies than being run like soorts direct. Buy low sell high
History is very important up to a point but really stuff from after WWII onwards is considerably more important. Why would anyone refer to Sunderland fans as cockneys???
Who ever said anything of the sort? You referred to them as Geordies, I just said that isn't advisable. No more than Mancs like being called Scousers.
