    bitter.... but funny.... kernt....

    Jose Mourinho cut a frustrated figure following the ending of his Chelsea side’s unbeaten run at St James’s Park as he accused Newcastle – and the ball boys – of wasting time when the Magpies went ahead through Papiss Cisse.

    Alan Pardew’s men faced an onslaught towards the end of the game with 10 men as Chelsea looked to rescue the game having on two down, yet Mourinho was seemingly more concerned with the lack of swiftness in which the balls returned on the pitch.

    Any attempt of time-wasting may have been recorded by the fourth official as Chelsea received six minutes of additional time, a number clearly above the average stoppage time.

    “They defended. They fought hard. They tried to counter attack when it was possible. This is the way they play against us,” Mourinho told reporters.

    “And sometimes there were two balls. And it is not possible to play with two balls. Sometimes there was zero balls and that also helps to cut the dynamic of the team who is trying to win the game.”

    “You may as well put a cow in the middle of the pitch, walking. And then stop the game because there was a cow.”

    Mourinho’s comments are similar to those he voiced following a goal-less draw against West Ham at home. branding their tactics as football from “19th century”. The ‘Special’s One’ frustrations will be duly noted by his rivals as they will to replicate Alan Pardew’s tactics.

    Funny old Jose, he didn't seem to have a problem with these sort of tactics when Chelsea played Liverpool last season, if anything they parked the bus even more than we did on Saturday, he also seems to have forgotten the bit in that match when he held the ball away from Gerrard, the only think Jose achieved with this nonsense was to make himself look foolish.

    Good management, daft comment draws attention to him not the team. Similar to Rodgers blame me comments the other week. They know the press will make the headline about them not the team and it relieves some of the pressure.

    I swear Balotelli does it for the entire world of football, although Ranger and Tiote have been challenging him for media coverage!

    Think it's been blown out of proportions the whole comments. We've beaten Chelsea a few times (lost a lot more) under Mourinho and he has always been full of praise for us.

    I thought he was quite mooted in his intial interviews, he got a bit bullish when he faced the press herd.
