Unhappy Well done Bolton!

Whilst I am an ardent GOONER I have got to say that Bolton deserved the win tonight! We were never that threatening and were out played at times. Now a 10 point gap to close, oh sh*t!

So annoying that the title is now Chelsea's to lose.

I'd rather have Man U or Arsenal win it ahead of Chelsea, cos without the Russian, they'd still be getting beat off crappy teams in Europe like they used to.

And no, it's not jealousy, I just think they have bought the title with the Russians money. Great if you support them, ****e for the rest of us. Going to do football no good IMO.

Depends how you view football IMO

From a competetive level its true, you're not going to see 6 domestic teams battle it out with the title decided on the final day.

But in terms of viewing quality, we've never had it so good. You don't need to wait 4 years to see the pinnicle of football anymore, you now get the cream of the game every champions league.

From somebody who wants to see the best quality football played between 2 teams, I've never had it so good. I've watched Spanish footy on SKY for the last few seasons - Real v Barca is fantastic, even if Real have lost it over the last season.

I hate to say it but Chelsea are a must watch team, as are Arsenal but neither gets my juices going like Barca ATM. You could probably argue that some domestic teams are better than the best national sides at the mo.

Must say I agree with you entirely!
Still proud to be a Gooner, what we have done over recent years, with small crowds and a good Manager is fantastic.

I agree with what you say there. I read on Sky Sports News that Naybet of Tottenham was saying Chelsea were playing boring football. He's talking bollox. They are playing great football, and sweeping all before them. He's eating his words now they've become another notch on Chelsea's bedpost.

They're good to watch, but I don't like the fact that the league is theirs.

And it is theirs.

Andy.

The Russian? I think not, Mourinho has made the differance, and the **** and Man. U. slipping up, Chelsea haven't got that many more points than this time last year I believe. Chelsea may have spent alot but Man .U. have spent 60 million on just two players.
Being beaten by crappy teams in Europe is an Arsenal thang, I think you'll find
And so yes it's jealousy

Oh so Mourinho paid for all your players did he? Of course he did. You should thank us anyway - before we beat **** the were looking unstoppable. Since then they lost the plot. Tis a pity we dont play you until April 16th in the prem. Nevermind - will have to see if you can beat us in the league cup replay - seeing as you couldnt this week

Cool Up the ****!

Whoever you support you should always be proud to do so, I have seen so much crap written about Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea, and most of it is bollox!

There does seem to be a lot of Chelsea fans crawling out of the woodwork right now though.

As for Man Utd, so many fans, and most of them have never seen them play.

COME ON YOU GUNNERS, only ten points, we can still win it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was the same when the late Matthew Harding first arrived on the scene, but this time they're sprinting out of the woodwork, most of the Chelsea *cough* supporters *cough* I know freely admit to only supporting Chelsea since the Harding arrival, "I wasn't really that interested in football until then" this from thirty somethings, that said I know a couple of Utd supporters who only supported them after they started winning on a regular basis. It's enough to make your **** boil!!

Of course you can, about as much chance as Utd, it's gone, Chelsea will not lose 4 of their last 15 unless it goes seriously wrong and with the best squad in the Prem I doubt very much 23 players will lose their bottle, sorry that's 24 now
