    Prior to Roman taking over we smashed you at the Lane from 87-03

    Then Arsenal smashed you too for a decade

    Hence 3PL

    Ancient history. Go a bit further back and Chelsea were vying with West Ham to be the third best club in London.

    Don't you find it sad that your club is used as a cash cow by two shysters?

    It isn't! Shyster would be a better description of your owner in any case.

    When Levy took over we were mid-table and losing to Chelsea regularly. We are now pretty much always in the top 5 and Chelsea fans crow at getting a home draw against us. Not sure why anyone thinks that is a sign of Levy being a bad chairman.

    As I, and Sky have said. All that shows is that they're more experienced and devious in not getting caught.

    ... or possibly that the officials called it correctly <whistle> ... apart from the Dier scythe on Eden (He's One Of Our Own) Hazard of course .... which should have merited a ban at least twice as long as the 3 matches Robert Huth got for tugging Fellaini's barnet <laugh>

    I've said many times , it took 50 years for Chelsea to win a title , and another 50 to win the next one . Bit of a " Bridge Collapse " till the Russian money showed up .

    You can try to prove your so called 'point' by showing selective incidents all you like. Facts are they started it, were better at not getting caught at it, and we overreacted.

    Typo? ... what typo? <whistle>

    PS your 'selective' incidents don't make them any less factual ... I didn't see Chelsea players treading on people's hands or attempting to eye gouge ... were they better at hiding that?

    As I've said, and you seem to have missed - or ignored, we overreacted. That doesn't alter the fact that they started it from the off. And stepped it up when they went behind

    Talking about bottle jobs...if we had won at the bridge we woukd still had not won the league...but had a certain legend at Liverpool not slipped up against chelsea then Liverpool would have!

    If Carling did bottle jobs they'd not get anywhere near as good as Liverpool's one that year <whistle>


























    By the way, I am completely over it.
