I think if someone comes in for him--and we set up a replacement in time--that they'll allow him to go before his contract is up. It will really be whatever he and his camp want to do. The board seem set though to allow him to leave on his terms. Now whether that's this month, or in May, he's done at the club.
definite disappointment. I wonder how they would treat Terry when that time comes.
I can't stand the man for what he did before he ever knew Chelsea existed.
I mean, everybody laughs at the Venkys and everybody knows the Glazers are greedy scum, but Abramovich really is criminal filth.
Be a shame if Frank's exit is a messy one.

Isn't he rumoured to be joining Valencia soon ? Well that's what his agent said anyway.
dat wingers
Lennon is having an amazing season, him and Defoe have come on leaps and bounds under AVB. Harry really didn't get the best out of the squad he had last season.
Happy with AVB so far?
Yes. We are 3rd in the league behind only the two Manchester clubs, I can't ask for any more than that. There were teething problems early in the season but that was due to injuries/poor squad.
He's getting more out of our players than Harry did and I think that since we stopped playing Vertonghen at LB and brought Dawson and Lloris into the team, we have pretty much stopped conceding goals. The only exception was the game at Everton which we were 3 minutes away from winning before one of our young defenders shat himself and cost us the game.
It won't be as messy as the Roy Keane Man U exit but it will be a shame if Lampard was forced out when he still has something to offer. Players who give as much to their clubs as Lampard deserve the club to throw them a bone imo.
But on the other hand you don't want to end up with a Carragher-esque situation.
Blame Jon Champion
He's okay, I'm sure he's faking it.
Probably trying to skive off
ACoN is a real pain in the ass. We should really skip players from those countries as losing them for this period every season is frustrating.
Except for Gervinho. Take him permanently.

I'm not really sure of the Carrager situation. I feel the players who served the club for an extended period should be given the option of staying even in a lesser role. If the player chooses to leave for more football then their choice but they deserve the option IMO.
Carra's legs went 3/4 years ago. And he was rewarded with a new contract in that period.

Anzhi want Lombaerts off us. Not only would this break up the Lombaerts-Bruno Alves defensive partnership that I have so desperately longer for, but Anzhi have also been known to pay handsomely. Get it done, Gazprom!
Good bloke. Hope it works.

Sounds like City activated Cavani's 62m release clause.

Since you guys love your chicks, here's one from the 'So, was Hillary Clinton hot when she was young?' thread:
I just found out a few days ago that the king and queen of Bhutan are a ridiculously good looking pair. They are also in the process of democratizing the country, very admirable. And best of all his name is Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, can't get more badass than that.

Not sure how I feel with Lampard, great dude and a club legend, so wouldn't mind seeing him stay in the club forever, but on the other hand it really is time to stop relying on him and Terry.
Central midfielder Anouar Kali, a product of the youth-system, decided not to sign a new contract at FC Utrecht and will be a free agent after the current season.
I say : bench him for the rest of the season and start using a tactic without him.
Or sell him this transfer-period ofc.

JSC sports have the worst football bundits ever, blatant biased opinion all around.
Anyway, when is FIFA's fake show [Ballon d'Or]?
Edit: Ops, found it!

Will probably go to FC Twente in the summer then.

Anyone else think this rule about thread whining is ridiculous?
Seeing people banned for pretty much disagreeing with the sentiment in the OP

Rumours say he already signed at AZ, but frankly I don't give a damn.
He played like 10 good games in his entire career, then already wants to go elsewhere?
We have better talents than him waiting to take his place anyway.
Yes, yes I do.

Fincher or Swedish version?
Fincher, it was £6. I already own the Swedish version.
If you buy two or more pre-owned BluRay's at Blockbuster you get 20% off. So really it was £4.80. It's got some kind of nice cardboard jacket too, so it looks pretty sleek!

Very nice
Thumbs up for all that, brilliant haul.
It's not the rule it's the enforcement that's the problem.
Blockbuster and CEX in P-Town Arnie!
Some scrote dropped one in CEX, it fucking stank. It cleared the area where they have the glass windows and put hard drives in and pre-owned consoles etc.
Moved back to Sheffield yesterday, fuck. Will buy ICO/SoTC HD at some point.
A final note on the Suarez incident, nearly a day later, and I agree fully with Phil McNulty from the BBC:
My main cause for concern yesterday wasn't people calling him what they did on here, we're football fans, and rightfully emotional, but Jon Champion calling him a cheat just sent me over the edge.
The moment a referee alters a decision because a footballer has told him too, whether it's the moral thing, or the correct thing to do is the moment the officials lose all respect.
Suarez didn't cheat yesterday, yes the ball hit his hand and it played a part in the goal but I don't think he did it on purpose. IIRC his body language suggested he thought it had been spotted. The goal shouldn't have stood though, it was ball to hand but it gave him such an advantage the officials should have gave a free kick. But it was the officials at fault, not Suarez. The only reason Suarez is getting the flak is because of his name.
The Suarez haters haven't had much to go on the past few months, they've had to admit he's a genius footballer but now they have some ammo to get back to their old ways.

This reminds me of Muntari's ghost goal.
Buffon “I have to be honest, it was all moving so quickly that I didn’t realise the ball had crossed the line. Mind you, even if I had realised, I certainly wouldn’t have told the referee!"

Nice. Will have a look in CEX later for any cheap stuff.
I'm sure I heard it last night.
