Chelsea lose again. West Brom pretty much dominated that game. I don't see AVB keeping his job much longer.

Yeah, they definitely need to get an attacking midfielder for next season. Maybe Christian Eriksen.

Hilights on ESPN as I write ...   I think it was a one timer.   Let me see the replay  ....   Yup one time.   Hit it on the fly off his left ankle.

Yankees managers during Steinbrenner's first decade or so had better job security than Chelsea managers.

Will be checking out how the nouveau regime does this coming Saturday - will be at The Bridge that aftternoon to watch them take on Stoke City.

I thought it was going to be like 8-0 aggregate, so I'm pretty happy with the outcome.  And mother effing Apoel, wtf  :shock:

Premier League is gettin' to the good part.    United will have it's time later in the summer.    I'm thinking about taking in a few DCU games.   I haven't been to a stateside soccer game since the Diplomats were in town.

I'll be there a couple of times over the summer.   Watching the Premier League over the last several months has stoked my soccer flame again.

You'd think in honor of Old Chelsea United and the Nats could schedule some cross promotion, like an afternoon / evening combination with shuttle buses from RFK, parking once, and maybe a discount. Considering that most of the concessions would be captured in the stadiums, it would be a money maker.

Edit - I like this one so much, I'm going to post it in the customer service thread.  But it absolutely has to be known as the Old Chelsea special!

The United will be lucky to hold out for a tie tonight, KC is dominating the ball.  Really strange seeing an old Bobby Convey.
