Anyone know how many coaches are going up to Stamford Bridge on Boxing day ?

Possibly for fear of being confronted an angry mob of fat morons wearing blue shouting 'murderers!' at us with some dickhead in need of a good shave pelting us with roubles from his helicopter landing pad on the roof.

Lets face it, we also have a good chance of a stuffing. Chelsea are a crap club, with ridiculous ticket prices, no atmopshere and they play boring football. They also get massive chunks of luck. I predict boxing day will be a crap day out for all travelling royals.

Yes, but we'll be getting that at Old Trafford as well next Saturday so I can't see how that affects things too much.

Better atmosphere, less expensive, united play more attractive football and let the game flow. They also have a lot more dignity and class.

Boston Royal We were significantly better than against Blackburn, although that's not a high hurdle. A decent amount of possession, and we might have got something but for a terrible refereeing decision and gaping defensive errors (particularly for the second goal). Aside from temporarily lapses, the main disappointment was consistently bad crosses which often failed to beat the first defender.

Seol was great for us earlier in the season but is going through a rough patch at the moment; I'd start with Lita and think Seol could do a job on the bench. Hunt tries hard but unfortunately just isn't a Premiership player (he wasn't even a starter in the Championship); I'd have Little and Oster on the wings if one of them can play on the left. Neither Little nor Oster are doing great at the moment but I think are better than our other current options. Hopefully Kitson and Convey come back soon.

I'd go with:

Hahnemann
Shorey, Ingimarsson, Sonko, Murty
Little, Harper, Sidwell, Oster
Doyle, Kitson

You'd go with that for who?

Sorry, typo - I meant Lita instead of Kitson. I'd go with this for standard games (e.g. West Ham on 1/1) until we get new players or players return. Of course exceptional games like Chelsea (A) we may wish to have a different formation.

Also very true, although Chelsea's a lot closer, even if it does mean having to venture into the dirty shithole that is our proud nation's capital.

i'm going on boxing day and really looking forward to it and don't mind if we lose as long as we put in a good display.

2 world wars, 1 world cup WHERE'S THE F@CKING PASSION?

Certainly not in the no 19 shirt and not in the stands for the last 10 minutes before the final whistle.

Little looked well angry at times, especially with the linesman.

Not suprisingly. In part due to frustration I suspect.

He didn't get many decisions today, but then again he also looked well of the pace and probably unfit. It also can't have made him any happier that our keeper chose to ignore him for the entire game in favour of launching the ball to their centre backs.
