Southampton - as rank underdogs - actually beat Man U in the FA Cup final of 1976. Very surprising therefore that they didn’t sell their allocation given their giant killing history at Wembley. Southampton may make the Championship play-off final at Wembley next season or they could be doing a Sunderland to get relegated to the third tier of English football. Whatever, they are a selling club that never stood a hope in hell of staying in the Premiership by always selling their best players.

........Southampton maybe playing Pompey next season. Will Southampton bottle that fixture as well ???!!! :emoticon-0102-bigsm
 
Saints are good value in Championship as long as they don't sell more. And need to convince some decent manager to help.

Indeed, looks like Southampton selling their defender Van Dijk to Liverpool will see them relegated. Just a few years ago they had the players to beat us 1-3 at Stamford Bridge and that was after Willian gave us the lead. Same with Sunderland after they beat us at Stamford Bridge to end Mourinho’s unbeaten run. Have Sunderland ever been in the third tier before? There’s the warning to clubs beating us at Stamford Bridge - it could see you relegated. :1980_boogie_down:

Great game, great atmosphere - even from the Southampton end that looked like they had 15,000 tickets unsold judging by the amount of empty seats in their end. Bring on Mourinho and his Mancs.

Given that Sanchez might be playing it would be poetic justice if he was on the losing side this time penance for his blatant handball last year. I think we have a better chance against Utd but it will take a quantum leap of faith from Conte and the team to do it.

have full faith on the team to do it. But zero faith in Tony.

If we win, we will win with 10 member team instead of the 11 which Tony is going to put out.

If you’re writing of Mourinho, he’s more of a mercenary than a Judas. When Mourinho helped win us the Premiership in 2005 - on the club’s 100th anniversary - he was the Messiah not the Judas. When we lost to Southampton then Bournemouth at home in the Premiership - he had to go. Beating Arsenal 6-0 and the Spuds 4-0 in the same season during Mourihno’s second spell here was epic and I’ll never forget it.

It was a sarky response to Stans comment who crazily calls him Judas despite being sacked twice by us and having the audacity to find another job.

Ffs Judas got us almost relegated.
I asked him to be sacked in October. Our board was as blinded as the fans on here.

FFS Judas is a player or manager who wants to leave his club for another, NOT SACKED (TWICE)

Idiot. <ok>

.......anyway, I paid £65 each for the semi final seats and it’ll be £115 each for the same category seats for the final. To use a bit more biblical name calling, the FA are of the Church of Mammon......robbing barstewards. :emoticon-0143-smirk

Judas knew LvG was dead man walking. He left us for more money (Salary & Players transfers).
Obvious for anyone but not for some "fans" like you <doh>

He sold KDB, Mo, Mata (2 time club POTY) et al and sabotaged us all along.

There was a storm brewing when Judas betrayed Jesus. It’s all about interpretation, Mourinho could have engineered his own dismissal by ‘losing’ the dressing room or it could have been the players that engineered Mourinho’s dismissal. After Mourinho left - I think it was a Sunderland game at Stamford Bridge - I remember the crowd chanting at our players who were on fire and winning handsomely - “where were you when we were shit?”.

Jose's ego would never allow him to be perceived as a failure, even if it was fake.
You think Jose told the players to play like ****?
"Hey guys, you're all ****s, now go out there and lose so I can get the United job!"

Stan is insane.
Even if that is what happened, how does Stan know this, since there has been no reports about it at all, no one has come forward to claim this in the press or any of the Chelsea players?
So who provided you with this insider knowledge @StanDMan pray tell?

Or are you just putting 2 and 2 together and coming up with 9?

You don't have to make players to down their tools.
Intangibles. Don't do any intangibles and tactical basics. This game is won or lost on finer details and substitutions. Those finer details win title.

Old Judas didn't do it.
New Judas is not bothering to make any subs even when we are losing & down 2 goals down.

You don't have to be Einstein to put 2 & 2 to get this 4 <doh>

God you are exhausting.
You talk so much bullshit, I can't even be bothered to argue with you anymore.
I will just take comfort in the fact that everyone knows you are talking bollocks and tells you at every opportunity.
