there was an interesting piece in the independent (written by mihir bose so it does lose some credibility) talking about the Equality Act which dictates any complaints of racism made by an employee to their employer has to be reported to a third party, namely Clattenburg. if it had come out after that it was dealt with internally, it would look pretty dodgy given their recent history. they screwed up releasing a statement but i guess with the recent dramas they can't afford to be seen as anything but bullish and proactive. i think ramires truly believes he heard the word but with luiz translating a geordie accent to him, it is one hell of a mess.

They should still be kicked out because that means we'll finish a place higher.

Is there a trophy for 3rd?

SunSport can reveal some Blues stars are sceptical about the shock allegations and pressure is mounting on the club to physically prove the remarks were made.
Significantly, the club have not yet officially complained to the police about the alleged incident — even though the Society of Black Lawyers has...
Even if Clattenburg, 37, is proved innocent, it may be many years before he is allowed to officiate at a Chelsea game again.
He is being ‘rested’ again this weekend while the FA investigates and a refs’ insider told SunSport: “There are concerns about the implications of him refereeing a Chelsea match.

Mission accomplished. Scum club.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Chelsea are going cold on Atletico Madrid hitman Radamel Falcao - because Roman Abramovich is no longer convinced the Colombian is worth his asking price.

Falcao has been the revelation of Atletico's impressive start to the season, including the outstanding hat-trick that sank Roberto Di Matteo's Blues in the UEFA SuperCup Final in Monaco in August.

But with Abramovich retaining faith in Fernando Torres despite his lack of goals, the Chelsea owner is now signalling he is less than keen on meeting Atletico's £46million price for the South American.

While a January swoop is not out of the question - there are still two months to go before the window opens and Chelsea have swapped targets at short notice before - the Blues are now looking at cheaper alternatives to add to their fire-power.

Marseilles' France striker Loic Remy, who was on the Chelsea radar at the close of the summer window, is now understood to be back on the agenda, with the £15m tag not seen as too onerous.And the other potential target is Falcao's fellow Colombian, Porto's Jackson Martinez, who has scored nine in as many league appearances - and 14 in all competitions - for the Portuguese side since his £8m arrival from Jaguares, beating the club records set by Falcao and Brazilian Hulk.

Porto President Pinta Da Costa, who forced Chelsea to pay £13m to land Andre Villas-Boas in 2011 and played hardball with Spurs over Joao Moutinho this summer, is likely to ask for nearer £20m for the 26-year-old but Chelsea are looking to give Torres back-up until the end of the season.

Chelsea announce profit of £1.4m for year ending June 30, 2012 - the first time club has made profit since Abramovich's arrival

[gooners]

Well they have started making profit -- which means they are getting to where they want to be after all that money pumped into the club. That's good. It has always been the way of most investments when starting afresh.

I for one am happy that there is more than arsenal and utd challenging for things these days. Thanks to yhe trickle down of 'petrodolars' fulham,everton,newcastle, etc can buy decent players that cost a good sum.

The fact that these days i am not really shocked when i hear fulham/everton/norwich/swansea etc have beaten utd is testament to how better the game is these days imho

The millions murdered, robbed and plunged into poverty to generate those petrodollars probably don't approve of their lives being trashed so a grubby Russian gangster can play at being respectable. But yes, the spiralling wages, ludicrous transfer fees, mercenary attitudes, media hype and corresponding decline in genuine talent has certainly transformed the game.

I'm fairly sure this is the most wrong post I've read on GW. If it isn't the most wrong, it is almost certainly in the Top 1.

I'd second that.
