League Cup: Chelsea 4-0 Aston Villa
Match reports The Guardian, Jon Brodkin: “Anyone who imagined that Sunday’s defeat at Tottenham would have lasting implications for Chelsea was set straight by this rousing victory last night - one achieved without a whiff of confrontation with match officials or opponents. Their excellent second-half display was the type that ought to endear them to more [...]
Football’s Jedi Knights are a grass stain on the game
It’s not often one can quote Terry Wogan to illustrate a point about football, so I’ll take the opportunity while I can.

Deadline day: lawyers, Gunners and money
Given the drama and speculation flying around Chelsea last week, you could have been forgiven for thinking that Oliver Stone was orchestrating events rather than Peter Kenyon. Football’s armchair pundits, well known to be fond of a conspiracy theory went from Parker Knoll to grassy knoll quicker than you could say ‘Abramovich’. The conclusion of [...]
Chelsea fined for doping breach
The Football Association has fined Chelsea £40,000 for breaching doping regulations. Chelsea were charged in relation to the independent private drug testing the club conducted on Adrian Mutu in July 2004. The club has issued a strongly-worded statement criticising the FA’s bureaucracy and drug testing procedures, but also admitting that a technical breach of the doping regulations [...]
