No Ghosts of Chelsea Past
The Festive Season always had a certain predictability; on Christmas Day the turkey would get a right stuffing, on Boxing Day Chelsea would follow suit. My ‘favourite’ stuffing was a 4-1 thumping, inflicted during a torrential downpour at Elland Road by Leeds United, many Boxing Days ago. It was also a noon kick-off, which necessitated [...]
Babayaro to sign for Newcastle
Chelsea’s 26-year-old left-back Celestine Babayaro is set to officially sign for Graham Souness’ Newcastle on January 1. The player, who would have been out of contract at the end of the season, moves for an undisclosed fee. Babayaro won the FA Cup, League Cup, Charity Shield and European Super Cup during his seven-and-a-half years at Stamford [...]
Portsmouth v Chelsea
We made a good start to our busy Christmas schedule on Sunday, which we traditionally fail to do. Now we must build on that victory over Aston Villa by defeating Pompey at Fratton Park, something that won’t prove easy. Harry Redknapp built the south coast Blues into a formidable opponent at home, and their new management [...]
Chelsea v Aston Villa
It’s been a reasonably quiet build-up to the Premiership Christmas Crackers. The will-he-won’t-he Joaquin transfer looks to have finally died on its feet… though don’t rule out a summer transfer. Scotty Parker succumbed to the dreaded Curse of the Metatarsal, may require an operation and could be out for three months — which is a [...]

It gives us great pleasure knowing that you share our Chelsea FC obsession and find this site of some use. Since we started recording visitor stats in July [...]
Chelsea v Norwich
Stamford Bridge is not the place where Norwich will record their first away win of the season; we’re unbeaten at home, have conceded just three goals and are several classes above East Anglia’s second team. (Let’s face it, Ipswich and Norwich will swap Leagues next season.) Although we should win this match with the utmost ease [...]
Joaquin will be a Chelsea player ‘in days’
Despite Jose Mourinho’s protestations to the contrary — “I do not want to sign any players in the January transfer window. I just want to keep my players and avoid injuries” — Chelsea will sign Real Betis winger Joaquin ‘in days’ according to Spanish newspaper reports. Below is a translation of an article published today [...]
Chelsea drawn with Barcelona
Jose Mourinho called it correctly - Chelsea will play Barcelona in the first knock-out stage of this season’s Champions League. The matches will be played on the 22nd/23rd February and 8th/9th March next year. Barcelona will play at home first. It’s a chance to avenge 1999/2000’s defeat in the quarter-final of this competition. Champions League draw in full: Real Madrid [...]
Joaquin reveals Chelsea interest
Reports circulating in the press suggest that Chelsea has bid £30m for Real Betis winger Joaquin. This morning’s Daily Mirror quotes the Spain international as saying: “The Chelsea offer has given me something to think about. “I’ve heard the offer is very big and I know Chelsea are a very big club but for me money was [...]
Rumour Roundup
Another selection of transfer rumours that, as usual, proliferate at this time of year. AC Milan’s Andrei Shevchenko is still one of our top targets, according the Independent. His agent has since dismissed the story by claiming we cannot afford him. Odd considering we’re owned by one of the world’s richest men. The Independent also has us [...]
