Always have been, always will be.

If those are the tactics to win a football match I despair. ☹️

I really don't understand why Werner gets so much game time, Chelsea could easily be out of sight by now. Abraham not even on the bench again, no way he's at Chelsea next season imo.

Totally agree, every time I’ve seen him Werner has been rubbish. My worry is if we are really after a forward that cannot get into a team over someone like Werner.........!

Tammy not on the bench but in the full kit was very funny

yoyo · May 2021

Learnt that from John Terry

Glenn Murray has retired. One less of our clubs nemesis to worry about.

It's not going to be easy if you get a penalty at newly promoted Sutton United this season: -

'The penalty spot from which Jamie Collins scored the winner against Leeds United in the FA Cup fourth round in January 2017 will be kept behind the bar at the club'

I feel angry about this. The powers at be in this country clearly don’t give a hoot about dealing with racism. A £500 fine. After a being filmed and clearly identified. It’s disgusting and is absolutely no deterrent to these utter morons.

MrsGrey · June 2021

I wonder what the maximum fine is for public order offences?

Edit: Here

https://www.sentencingcouncil.org.uk/offences/magistrates-court/item/disorderly-behaviour-racially-or-religiously-aggravated-disorderly-behaviour/

Personally, I'm in favour of a 'restorative justice' approach to offences with a racial element. (plus fines + bans, etc, but not that alone)

I’m typically in favour of restorative justice for everything, personally. But the thing that frustrates me is you see the book thrown for some things and not others. It just makes it seem like a non-issue on the eyes of the law

Serious question, what, in your opinion, would be an appropriate penalty for this?

MrsGrey · June 2021

There are a range of penalties for this type of offence going as high as a number of years in prison. I think I think that any sentence has to be proportionate to other offences...not just racially aggravated ones.. but I'm thinking that for this type of offence the usual ameliorating factors like ' first offence' and ' previous good character' should be abolished.

Just thinking aloud, I haven't worked out a fully consistent set of new sentencing guidelines. Yet.

I don’t really feel qualified to put a value to it, to be honest

Did you know he’s the most fouled manager in international football?

MrsGrey · June 2021

Was just doing a bit of a look up on a different topic and was reminded John Terry left WH academy as a kid, same age Declan Rice left Chelsea...

He's one of our own.......Nurse, carbolic please.
