FA Community Shield, Chelsea vs Man City 12/08/12 13:30 BST ITV1.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I can't pick who I would rather see win this, it seems like a fairly desperate situation either way. Still, should be a good match though.

[GP]

I suppose the best we can hope for is a giant meteor falling on Wembley.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well Arsenal are in Germany so why not?

Also, I did have a slight chuckle when I saw someone on a Chelsea forum talking about PSG and saying: more money than sense. :rolleyes:

[Marc Overmars]

I suppose the best we can hope for is a giant meteor falling on Wembley.

The match is at Villa Park. So the meteor can fall there.

[Marc Overmars]

Also, it's been a briliant summer of sport.

Shame Football is almost back though. :rose:

[Cripps_orig]

The match is at Villa Park. So the meteor can fall there.

:haha:

[GP]

The match is at Villa Park. So the meteor can fall there.

Yeah that'll do.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

hopefully city dick em. cant stand chelsea.

[Rors]

The match is at Villa Park. So the meteor can fall there.

Too late *knows all the jokes*

[V-Pig]

Hate them both. Won't be watching.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man up.

Also, Dixon and Southgate are in the studio. Chiles isn't there, thankfully.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Honest Frank starts. :o

[V-Pig]

:lol: Did you just tell me to man up?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I did indeed! At least one of the teams will lose, granted that means one of them will win but we can't have it all.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Chelsea: Cech, Ivanovic, Luiz, Terry, Cole, Lampard, Mikel, Ramires, Eden Hazard, Mata, Torres.
Subs: Turnbull, Essien, Meireles, Sturridge, Cahill, Bertrand, Piazon.

Man City: Pantilimon, Savic, Kompany, Kolarov, Zabaleta, Milner, Toure Yaya, De Jong, Nasri, Tevez, Aguero.
Subs: Holmen Johansen, Dzeko, Adam Johnson, Silva, Clichy, Toure, Razak.

Hart has a "back injury" which will also rule him out of the England game :rolleyes:

[GP]

No doubt he'll be fit for the season opener.

[V-Pig]

Lol. I got told. Yeah, at least some good will come of all this.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Citeh have the redcurrant? I'm a little bit jealous tbf.

[Rors]

The Defector...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Dixon, what have you done? :(

[Rors]

Dixon, what have you done? :(

I hope he's happy. On Saturday the reality of what he has condemned to us to will become apparent.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Initially awful defending from Chelsea, didn't matter though as Nasri gave it away.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Freekick from Tevez, Cech did well to get it away from goal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Luiz. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea haven't been very good so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Savic booked. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yaya gives Torres a good kicking.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I don't think I dislike any two clubs or their players (bar maybe Kompany) more than these two.

Come on meteor!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Milner. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aguero had an opportunity, bundles out via David Luiz to Nasri - he couldn't do anything with it.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Hazard :haha: :haha: :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard. :haha:

WTF?

[Rors]

Oh my good god.. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

£32 million. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aguero diving header, goes across the face of goal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Honest Frank shoots from the second six yard box, Pantilimon with a comfortable save.

[Rors]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nasri. :lol:

Awesome cross.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard shoots low from distance, not really troubling.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big Man blockade.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

http://i.minus.com/ibe4NgztLvsesd.gif

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramires booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

http://i.minus.com/ibe4NgztLvsesd.gif

:haha:

BSP would be proud. :cloud9:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cashley. :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Is it just me or does look to be a hell of a lot of empty seats?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea. :lol:

Alwful.

And no, it's not just you - definitely a dissapointing turnout.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

BSP would be proud. :cloud9:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-0 Citeh, Torres. :blink:

[Rors]

1-0 Torres. Had to dig that one out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ivanovic sent off! :haha:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

:haha:

It was two footed. It was clearly two footed. And it was high too.

[Rors]

Red card for Ivanovic :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

That's low is it Clive? What a berk.

[Rors]

That's low is it Clive? What a berk.

Low. Over the ball. Clive :rose:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Where's Shreeves?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:lol:

Ivanovic will still play in the Super Cup sadly.

Honest Frank booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Low. Over the ball. Clive :rose:

Oh now he can see why it was given. :rolleyes:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aguero puts Cech over the line.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-0 HT. :lol:

[KSE Comedy Club]

Clive is a proper clueless fucking spastic.

When will the thick ****s learn that two footed tackles aren't allowed?

[Rors]

Townsend giving us the exact same 'is that a red card these days?' shtick he gave us during City-United FA Cup Third Round game. Virtually to the word.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He seems to think tackles like that are allowed in the league every week. Townsend is a moran.

[Rors]

Big Man :haha: No positional discipline whatsoever..

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clichy is on for Savic.

Savic. :lol:

[Rors]

Cech :wacko:

Kolarov :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cech comes way out to head it...Kolarov tries to volley it in and it goes straight out for a throw-in. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clichy. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Honest Frank going for glory yet again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Kompany booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-1 Citeh, Yaya! He is great.

Big Man. :haha:

[Rors]

That's been coming. Hardly a "big goal" though Clive

[Rors]

Big Man :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nasri stabs a cross in, Cashley just about gets in ahead of Milner to clear it.

[Rors]

Zoiks!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-2 Citeh, Tevez. Superb goal.

Chelsea. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big Man and David Luiz are calamitous.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

David Luiz. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cashley booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 1-3 Citeh, Nasri.

Chelsea. :haha:

Big Man/David Luiz dreamteam. :bow:

[Rors]

Too easy

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ramires tries scoring a fourth for Citeh, good clearance tbf.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

I assume what with Chelsea going crazy stocking up on attacking mids, they've completely forgotten about their defence?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hazard hauled off, Bertrand on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mata off, Sturridge on.

Mata barely did anything today.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Has Mata been playing from the start?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nasri off, David Silva on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Has Mata been playing from the start?!

Exactly!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Exactly!
I know it's sometimes said jokingly but I genuinely didn't realise he was playing.

Pantillimon :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 2-3 Citeh, Bertrand!

Pantilimon. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pantilimon booked along with Bertrand after fighting over the ball.

Kids. :rolleyes:

[Rors]

Pants-ilmon :doh:

[Marc Overmars]

Hold on a second...

Dixon joined ITV?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big Man has had a mare. Honest Frank has been shit too.

[Globalgunner]

Yaya Toure really is the complete midfielder, can do everything. another one we missed out on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tevez off, Dzeko on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aguero. :haha:

What a miss. Superb build-up though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big Man. :haha:

What is he doing?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chelsea 2-3 Man City, FT.

Chelsea. :lol:

[gooners]

Yaya Toure really is the complete midfielder, can do everything. another one we missed out on.

We had song,diaby,denilson,wilshere....you know. Would have killed them.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

chelsea looking flat as usual.

typical chelsea really, buy a shitload of attacking midfielders, stick them on a pitch and hope they deliver.

fortunately football doesn't work like that.

[Master Splinter]

We had song,diaby,denilson,wilshere....you know. Would have killed them.

We actually had Vieira, Gilberto, Edu, etc.

[Master Splinter]

They used to buy athletes and cloggers, didn't they?

Judging by the way they still set out to play, the attacking midfield revolution will likely be short-lived.

Taaaaaaaaaaaansend and Tyldesley are truly deplorable.

[Cripps_orig]

Very true

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And that's from a Chelsea suppporter. :lol:

[Joker]

What a load of sanctimonious bullshit. I hate the way a lot of the press are using the Olympics and the behaviour of the athletes to criticise football.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It'll change in a month, they won't be able to write things like that each week.

Anyway, Arsenal. :bow:

[KSE Comedy Club]

What a load of sanctimonious bullshit. I hate the way a lot of the press are using the Olympics and the behaviour of the athletes to criticise football.
Maybe, but it's pretty spot on tbf.

I for one am sick of seeing the ****s swamp the ref everytime he blows his whistle. The chav twats did it yesterday with ivanovics well deserved red card.

Its about time football was brought in line with other sports.

[Ollie the Optimist]

ivanoic wont be banned because the fa dont consider this a first team game.


so that ban they slapped on jeffers make them look like ****s
