While we parade the Champions League trophy past him? I could handle that.

 

[jod23]

Yeah but I hate Owen.

Haha all because of that FA Cup Final.

You absolutely battered us that day. Classic.

The final score in that LFC v Real Legends game was Real 4-2 Liverpool. We scored two goals early through headers from Kewell and Owen. Then they apparently got two dodgy penalties which Carlos put away. Then scored a third goal that was about four yards off.

Apparently Real got some very good home cooking. Only fair though, it was played in Madrid and only for a bit of fun. It was good for Real to get up for their fans.

Tickets were apparently ranging between 5 to 15 euros too so plenty of families came out for the game. Was good to see.

Shambles, even I knew foreign players have to reapply for a work permit when they move club.

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Sandro has returned to Brazil as the row over his work permit rumbles on after it was revealed that he played without one for the whole season.

The £10million star failed to obtain a new work permit when he signed from Tottenham in September and faces having his contract cancelled if he cannot sort the appropriate paperwork.

Sandro was pulled out of QPR's last three Barclays Premier League games when they were made aware of the problem and the relegated club have since had their licence to sign non-EU players suspended.

Would that impact Luongo or is that safe because it's already gone through?

Any further rumours about where the club will go in the interim, and if there are any issues re: keeping the Chelsea FC name for the 3 years you're away? Or has that all been sorted out with the Chelsea Pitch Owners?

Yeah there's no worries with the name, that was only ever a threat from the CPO to keep us at the Bridge. Every knows and understands we need we need a bigger Stadia to keep up with the Reals, Barcas, Uniteds and continue to be self sufficient.

A lot of rumours Wembley will be our best option (some talk about Upton Park as well after WH have left), there was some worry that Wembley can only hold 37 events a year (but that's only for full stadium events) if we closed the top tier and keep the attendance to 50k we can play as many games as we like there.

I guess more will be revealed over the coming weeks.

I really hope they don't play out of Wembley. Nothing against Chelsea.

 

[Bojan KantKick]

If Chelsea play out of Wembley with it's larger capacity they could lower their ticket prices a bit which would be good for all.

Lucky to escape with only minor injuries if the pictures are anything to go by.

I hope we do. Love Wembley.

 

[moomba]

Would be wrong to have a club side play out of Wembley IMO.

Did Arsenal use the old Wembley for champions league games a while back?

F**king hell

Yes and we hardly won. Back when Anelka played for arsenal

I bet you would.

The beauty of Wembley though is that it isn't used weekly or for one club.

To me the beauty of the place is more the game (cup finals) over the venue (not saying its not a magical place. But they even play the semi's there now too.

To the detriment of things imo.

Also a valid point.

Playing there weekly would cheapen that imo.

 

[jod23]

Yeah I dont want Chelsea or any side playing at Wembley week in and week out. The place is supposed to be special and reserved for the big games, not a midweek fixture between Chelsea and Bournemouth. What if Chelsea draw a League 2 side in the League Cup at home. You play that at Wembley. It cheapens it IMO.

Chelsea could ground share with Fulham for a season.
