You’ll be fine mate. Blackburn are gooseberry fool.
Almost as bad as Celtic.

Hope United are entertaining later today. Otherwise Blue Eyes is going to be volcanic. Anything to detract from the fact his own team are dogshit.
If I supported a wank team - I’d give it large against one of the big clubs as well.
I hope we win 1-0 it’ll be awesome. With one shot on goal.

Happy days.

Fallen GRCadian teams' football derby in league one today - Blackburn vs. Portsmouth.

Mini E were going to head up to it but unfortunately I can’t make it looking forward to hearing your reaction to a masterclass away performance in a few hours time.

I think you’ll beat us convincingly.

Yeah I was hoping to head down but sadly I got a ticket to the Scottish league cup semi-final, which I also can't use as I couldn't get the day off work.

Don't think it'll be an easy game though - we suck at home this season!

A good goal by Pedro.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

That was such a sweet, satisfying hit. Absolute peach of a goal.

[PES Fan]

The corner that led up to the goal was a clear goal kick.

Aye well at least neither of them play boring gooseberry fool Mourinho tactics. I mean, imagine playing defensive football to win and draw all your games so far this season, scoring four times on several occasions along the way.

Blue eyes is going to be in a foul mood tonight.

Billic will be surely gone now after this performance. I think he could do better than the idiots on the West Ham board. Wouldn't be surprised if they go running back to Big Sam.

Our board like to wait until it’s too late before they sack their managers. Like with Avram Grant who they sacked minutes after we got relegated about ten years ago.

I love Bilic. He’s just so decent. Unfortunately he doesn’t seem to be a very good manager. Yesterday properly felt like end times. It was absolute peak West Ham and yet things will surely get worse before they get better.

I think Bilic is a decent manager. Did a really good job with Croatia. West Ham looked very good in his first season there. The issue is your board didn't build on that or give him the funds to sign the players he wanted. They instead chose to sign players they wanted. You signed too many average or old defenders.

Losing Payet and signing Snodgrass just about sums it up. That certainly wasn't a signing Bilic wanted judging by what Snodgrass told the media.

[BOR]

Chelsea 1-2 Watford.

[PES Fan]

Chelsea should be 4-1 down.

[Oblomov Boblomov]

Good game this. Watford are opening Chelsea up with alarming ease.

[Blue Eyes]

Chelsea getting beat would cheer me up no end.

[Kanbei]

Stays like this can see Conte getting sacked

[PurplePenguin]

History repeating itself somewhat. Chelsea seem to do well when they're playing once a week and the pressure is off but now they're back in Europe they don't seem to able to recover for the league game at the weekend.

I still think getting rid of Matic was a stupid mistake.

[PurplePenguin]

Good goals from Chelsea. Watford have thrown it by the looks of it.

Did Conte jump into the crowd?

Bloody Chelsea!
Had a 2-2 draw for this one. Oh well.

[Irene Demova]

Chelsea are developing a real habit of making decent but not great teams look like massive threats

Yeah he did.

Chris Sutton is absolutely strawberry floating raging about the Hibs penalty
