Ed033,
I noticed on the Liverpool sites that the wording is larger than other sites, is there a reason for this, also noticed there is a day time/ night time button on the Everton page.
{Ed033's Note - Well spotted, i will have to add that to the Chelsea page, then.

Chelsea 8-0 Wigan.
What a fantastic day out that was!
A mate told me the other day that the only times a title winning side have won the league while scoring over 100 goals or more are all within the last 15 years. I think he said it had happened six times.
Our best is apparently 103 goals with 68 scored at home!

A glorious game that was just such a wonderfully fitting climax to a glorious goal-fest season presided over by King Carlo and his expressive eyebrows. Defintion of a Blue Day and one of the best ever at Stamford Bridge. So great to be able to relax in te second half and simply enjoy our lads demonstrating why they were the best in England. Exhibition football including DD hat-trick and volleyed goal from Ashley C. I loved it and celebrations afterwards. even if my head didn't much enjoy life the next morning!

I'm strangely nervous about us getting a result at Forest this weekend.
I know they can't win a game under Ange but it would be typical Chelsea to come off the back of a good performance and then lose.
Anyway, I think Forest have some very good players, particularly in midfield.
Will be interesting to see what players are back from injury and of course Chalaboa from suspension but I would be tempted to start with Badiashile and Josh.
COME ON MY MIGHTY BLUES.

It's a game we will obviously befirm favourites to win and Forest have been plummeting twards the relegation zone but we all now the unpredictablity of the EPL.
But despite not wanting to jinx us with optimistic prediction I would eexpect a fairy comfortable away win given their form of late, the boost of vctory v Liverpool, TC back plus some others (Tosin? Fofana? Santos? ) perhaps after injury (though Josh and BB did v well together) and v importantly fact that likes of Caicedo, Pedro and James spared from International duty. and EM has had plenty of time to prepare with fair numnber of likely starters for the Forest game. He and squad in general must see this as a must win league game to help continue post LFC game momentum. Otherwise all the doubts about our season and possibility of Champions League spot come end of it will be back in droves.
KTBFFH.

I’m always nervous about Chelsea games lately. It would be nice to see us get a decent run going starting with NF.

Do agree that CFC has been so up and down in EPL in recent seasons that it is hard ever to be anything other than uncertain or nervous before a game. So hoping too that we can put a run together. Had posted after Brighton defeat that was hoping that turnaround and more consistency in season ahead would come with beating both Benfica and Liverpool in the week ahead. Well we managed that but absolutely need to keep momentum going v Forest away. Oh, and not have a fifth red card in a row after Maresca's one after run down touchline to celebrate Estevao goal earned him a secondd yellow. Discipline has been a problem in recent games and we must have picked up more cards than most others in EPL though haven't checked the stats.

JBS, we are second to Brighton in the disciplinary table although they have no red cards. Last season we only had two red cards but topped the table for yellows with an incredible 99.

The international break is always a pain particularly after our performance against Liverpool, I would have liked to see some momentum towards the next game. On the other hand, it gives some of our players a rest. Not Estavou though busy scoring two goals for Brazil. Not sure what TT thinks he is doing with England with his "places must be deserved" mantra. The current squad is littered with bang average players who wouldn't make it past the group stage in the World Cup. The notion that you would leave players like TAA, Bellingham James and Palmer out of the squad is fanciful.
Just noticed that the Wolves game is an 8PM Saturday fixture. Obviously, nobody cares that there are generally line closures on TFL at weekends; once you're out of the group who cares how you get home.

Completely agree. and 8 pm kickoff for an EPL game only about getting yet another game in on tv after the 5.30 pm one on a Saturday.
I find the midweek European competition kickoffs at 8pm tricky, but that timing dictated by UEFA not the FA so we're stuck with it and as they are midweek line closures not usual though cancellations and delays pretty common of course.
So yes, not much thinking about us fans!

PSAlso completely agree re comments anout the International break but balanced by possibility of players getting a rest and gtreat that neither Caicedo nor REcce involved. and that Estevao scored a brace (plus did come off with c 20 mins still to play I tink)

A mate told me ages ago that Enzo has been forced to train with Knee support for ages.
This could be something that is manageable, fingers crossed it hasn’t blown up into something more serious.
As far as KO’s are concerned, I think it’s a disgrace but as a fickle fan I want the TV money.

Is it true Arsenal earned over half their history in the 1930's from bribes engineered by the disgraced Sir Henry Norris when they should have instead been languishing in the dump that is Woolwich? Maybe ED01 could enlighten us?
{Ed001's Note - I have to be honest, I don't know much about that period of Arsenal's history, but I think I am going to have to start researching that period now.}

Sir Henry was an interesting character. There were lots of accusations about bribery associated to him.
I seem to remember reading he was an MP so he was well qualified.
