“The Manchester players protested a lot. I don’t know why. I don’t like this.”
Oh, the irony.
John Terry said he ‘loved’ Didier Drogba’s disgraceful reaction to their result against Barcelona last season. Remember the one? He had to be dragged away from the referee before shouting “it’s a fucking disgrace!” in to the camera. With a captain like that, is it any wonder Chelsea players are the worst behaved on the pitch?
Since Jose Mourinho joined Chelsea in 2004, they have faced more punishment than any other Premiership club for failing to control their players.
June 2009 – Charged and fined £85000 for their reaction following their draw with Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final.
November 2007 – Charged and fined £40,000 for their reaction to the sending off of Michael Essien.
September 2007 – Charged for their reaction to the sending off of John Obi Mikel. The players surrounded the ref and John Terry actually tried to pull the red card out of the referee’s hand (although he received no individual punishment). They were fined £30,000.
March 2007 – In the League Cup final against Arsenal three players were sent off and it kicked off big time. They were fined £100,000.
May 2006 – Fined £10,000 because of their reaction to William Gallas’ sending off.
April 2006 – Charged for their players’ angry reaction towards the ref following a foul by former red Ronnie Wallwork in their match against West Brom.
Man Utd News 24/7
Ancelloti, is an ignorant baffoon
Can’t wait until a decision goes against them against City or Arsenal, who they will both play away this month
Knowing the FA, and these scumbags referees, they are all conspiring against us from winning the league. Ever since the City match when the ref quite rightly gave 5mins of stoppage time, we had the time wasting by Wiley, the decision not to send off Carragher and now the disgrace of yesterday
We all remember how Terry got his red card rescinded against City last season. Damn the FA and their bias. Fletch is right, we need to score more goals than anyone else to win a match, just to cancel out the bias from the refs
what is he trying to tell chelski players are saints playing football ???? goin with that cunt droba its fuckin disgrace yeah football that chelski play is fuckin disgrace
Given that for years your manager has been the master at winding lesser teams up with totally unjustifiable comments that dont stand a minutes scruitiny, it is ever so funny seeing you on the receiving end for a change.
You used to be so good you never cared what others were saying – you dished it out, not received it. This newly felt insecurity of yours is really refreshing to the rest of us.
Cannot wait until the OT re-match
I’m sure we’ll be top by then, and we’ll give them another lesson on how to play football
They are the most overhyped team. Their pensioners will tire by March and will not be able to sustain any challenge
@ Mr Reasonable…
If you’re done blabbering, do you mind just FUCKING OFF outta here
Refreshing indeed…wait till may you stupid cunt and I tell you what, you’ll find United lifting all those trophies once more even more refreshing…
Thanks RedDevil you just proved my point better than I ever could have done.
“Since Jose Mourinho joined Chelsea in 2004, they have faced more punishment than any other Premiership club for failing to control their players.” Is that a fact? I would like to have a list of similar charges against ManYoo. Because it seems to me that your lot are hauled up in front of the disciplinary panel quite often enough.
Mr Reasonable – I’ll take any opportunity to make a rival manager look silly. The Chelsea manager certainly looks very silly making comments like this given Chelsea’s embarrassing behaviour of the pitch over the past few years.
We poke fun at Benitez all the time. Does that mean that mad twat makes us feel insecure too?
@ mr reasonable….guess what…we’re still the ones dishing it out…if only you would pay heed and get the fuck outta here. This is a United blog, go on to your “I love captain fantastic tiny tears blog” or something
EuroBlue
Our players aren’t cheating scumbags like yours. You have a team full of hooligans, a captain who has a mother that steals and a dad who deals in cocaine. How pathetic
Ashley Cole that 2 timing money grabbing scum
Drogba, the lying diving primma donna
Lumplard..enough said
JT..”I’d love to fight for my country” but cannot be bothered to do so
Mikel and Essien: tackles that have tried to break other players legs
Thats why Chelski are the most hated team in Europe and the whole of Europe rejoiced when Barca knocked you out. You complained then about the injsutice, yet you are all silent now!!!
@ Mr. reasonable
The very fact that this lying, cheating ranting of ignorant “Facts” by so called other teams’ managers makes you feel ‘refreshed’ just goes to show how pointless your post was… let alone justifying it
Scott the Red.
The original quote was “I dont like this”. None of the incidents were under his charge and I never heard of AC Milan complaining during his tenure. If you can prove me wrong I am perfectly willing to accept he is a hypocrite. Good point about Rafa though.
RedDevil
Christ! And they say we don’t have class!
am i pissed off ? Yes
am i worried ? Not yet
5 points behind at this stage of the season isnt the end of the season for us
chelski hav two difficult away games coming up against arse and city
and the african cup not far away
so they have had the transfer ban suspended and can throw money about in jan – but you do you get major transfers in Jan ? wont most the players they want end up bein cup tied in europe if they join chelski in jan ?
will they easily slot into a new team ? will they join knowing that once the african cup is over they wont get much playin time once key players are back for chelski ? with the world cup comin up they want to get into their national squad and need to perform/impress their national team coaches
wasnt ryan bumble of liverpool recently sayin he might consider a jan move to ensure a world cup place ? even if they buy they will be payin silly money
at the moment i’m more worried about arsenal who seem to be scoring for fun and have a game in hand and a much better goal difference
if we dont win it this season i wud prefer arsenal to win over the cheatin chelsea cunts – team full off arrogant wankers!
our midfield did us proud and our defence held the fort but we were lacking upfront – we only had owen as the other striker – maybe if berba wasnt injured then who knows
wat we lacked was a lethal finisher upfront – look at chelski and arse (with a game in hand) goal diff compared to ours
MrReasonable
it seems you have forgotten how your players behaved in the Community Shield (and that was Ancelloti’s first game!!!)
Cant believe how much the Chelsea players got away with yesterday and all I hear today is about how Jonny Evans shoulda been off (when clearly he only had eyes for the ball – unlike Drogba).
Off-topic but does any1 have a clip of John Terry elbowing Valencia in the head then falling over clutching his mouth like he accidentally got hit in the mouth? the guy’s an embarrassment
here’s something you might understand ancelotti:
!VENDETTA!
fuck off you chelsea apologist, sticking up for cunts makes you a bigger one.
see you and the whinging lot when it’s revenge time at old trafford!
dv-ant
Re January transfers. I sort of agree with you. The team does not really need strenghtening now and I think they will cope with the ACN without major transfers (unless Anelka gets injured over this period and we are in deep poop). I think we will buy a few 20 year old though and hopefully some will come through and be first team regulars by the end of the ban.
Sayyid Said
To be perfectly honest I have. I was out of the country and still have not seen that game so not sure what you are referring to (I will google it). My argument of course would be Ancellotti saw it happen once (whatever it was) and put his foot down.
The pressue is on chelsea lets see if they can handle it, liverpoo cudn’t last season.
Whilst rival managers do make themselves look silly with comments )And all managers make comments that can be classed as biased), Fergies personal crusade against referees is beginning to make him look rather foolish.
Rather than accept we have a few final peices of the jigsaw missing and that we arent effective in the big games, the emphasis gets shifted to the referees.
If we compare decisions over a space of the season, they usually balance themselves out.
Yesterdays defeat, in a strange sort of way, might be better in the long run, given that we now have to address certain issues and formations.
Mr reasonable unlike Manu and the Arse you’ve got fuc all coming through so you’ll do what you’ve been doing spend shit loads of money
MrReasonable – The point is that it’s funny a manager of Chelsea would criticise players complaining to the ref when HIS players have been in trouble for this more than any other club in this league over the past few years.
It’s not as if the players who have got Chelsea charged time and again have all moved on is it? The worst culprit is his bloody captain who “loves” Drogba for reacting so dreadfully he needed to be dragged away from the referee!
There is a conspiracy going on here. Ever since Fergie questioned some of the fat referees in this country we have suffered from one bad decison after another. This is not a coincidence.
Now I don’t blame Fergie, we used to have free speech in this country until Labour and the FA decided that if it doesn’t suit, then you can’t say it. I’m sick of the FA and political correctness. Whether it’s football or life, we should be able to say what we want.
Some needed to say it because it is fact, Alan Wiley is fat and is unfit, you only have to compare him to Collina to see that fact. I’d rather have the fit, in shape Italian, than the fat Wiley and friends.
Bad decisions are football and they even themselves out, but this is much more than this. You only have to study the two key matches we’ve had so far this season, Liverpoo and Chelski. 6 points stolen. The silver lining is that it will harden the dressing room, when people are against you, you fight harder.
Whats more embarassing,
Your Mum being a shoplifter
Your Dad being a drug dealer
Your Brother playin for Rushden and Diamonds
Poor John Terry.
to be fair to Ferguson, he didn’t blame our loss on the referee, but quite rightly pointed out that the goal should not have been allowed. When Ferguson says something publicly about referees he almost always has a point and is usually correct.
If he don’t like then leave the league. For the past decades, the league is well known for its passion. If no one protest it shows that they are not passionate on the game. i like united protesting a lot because it means they care. I remember in the 90s when there is nicky butt, beckham,keane,giggs,scholes, neville brothers all protesting which makes me like the club more! Nice!
Carlo must have been watchng the match from the Twilight Zone.
Even the blind could see that we were being robbed.
Euroblue mate. Seems really top of the world eh? In november? 5 points clear? Come back when your lot are off to african cup of nations.. You had the “grace” to admit the decisions went against you too. Tell us about it when you lose a match cause of it!
Offtopic: How long have you been obsessed with ROM Euroblue? Awesome addictive blog, aint it? You just cant keep off it!! Thanks a million scott! You unite the premier league mate! Cheers..
Scott the Red
I can see your point – mine was that he expressed a personal opinion and (subject to whatever I missed in the charity shield) his players generally behave under his charge.
re Terry. Dont get fooled by the headlines. Terry qualified his comment that “from a Chelsea point of view” it showed Drogba’s commitment but also admitted that from other points of view it was not good. Sounds like an honest comment to me.
To be fair I think Drogba’s “Fucking disgrace” moment was entirely justified and his subsuquent ban was ridiculous. His spasms that he had yesterday are the type of thing that make me dislike him.
RedDevil you seem very insecure about your opinions, for whatever reason
Why are you swearing at somebody for giving his opinion?
Guys just saw sky sports news wazza warned by fa for saying 12th man in front of the tv cameras. liked the way wazza said it which it was true fucking cheats chelski are. ancelotti clearly knows fuck all about those london cunts those shit bags lack discipline. sorry guys this may sound wrong but i guess drogba the diving ponce deserved what he was looking for good kick by evans ala cantona. did you see how theatric that diving cunt was shaking his body like he was electricuted. we OUTPLAYED those cunts and the game was outstanding haha ando,fletcher and carrick shat on their midfield. i was so disgusted to see those two cunts fat frank and tiny tears celebrating as if they fucking won the league. disappointed that the ref was a blue in disguise and for me to think that the league had a shit ref in that cunt andre marriner oh well i guess i was wrong. we’ll bounce back i’m sure of it. we’ll never DIE!
Agree with kel.
Personally I don’t like this man, seems too arrogant and big headed and raises his eyebrows excessively. Well, when decisions go against us, what else are our players supposed to do, walk away and accept the ridiculous refereeing?? Of course not, they’re going to protest because there is fucking justice in football. He needs to watch the match again to see why our players were protesting. Or is he going to do a Wenger and say “I did not see it.”
His players are becoming worse cheaters and prima donnas than the gooners.
let’s not lose it over this one game at chelsea. united have won 1 champions league 4 prem titles, 2 league cups, 1 fa cup, and 1 world club championship, since last winning at stamford bridge in 2002. it’s not the end of the world. it is just really hard to beat cheating chelsea even with our strongest clubs in history.
its obvious that chelsea’s home winning formula against united consists of unsportsmanlike behavior, fouling, diving, and subtle cheating. they are very good at it, and have confidence when they are at home to use these tactics to their fullest extent.
it reminds me of arsenal’s heyday when the would try to foul and intimidate our player’s like ruud and gary nev, before, during, and after matches with us. if the matches between us and the big clubs were based on management and ability alone i think we could all agree that united would come out on top most of the time. but to assume that we aren’t creative enough anymore, or are lacking in talent because we are robbed of a result in these big matches astounds me. none of the big clubs are going to just roll over at their homes, and these will always be our hardest matches of the season. when the refs influence the outcome to our enemies benefit, we just need to deal with it and move on.
fergie is building a new dynasty after 3 titles on the trot. he’s merging new talents while slowly phasing out older players. still, we are only 5 points adrift in early november and we have home matches against liverpool and chelsea still to come.
the african cup must surely wobble chelsea in january and hopefully we can overcome that gap. by late april we will be in the thick of the title race as usual and all big clubs will be lamenting the games they lost, not just united.
lastly, blackburn had a 100% legit goal disallowed by the linesman only last week vs united. it would only have made the score 2-1, but who knows, if it stood they might have nicked a draw. point being- the refs, and the bad calls even out in a long season. united got shafted again by the refs, but so will all our rivals at some point, as will some of our lesser opponents like blackburn.
let’s stop the whinging, get behind fergie and the lads, and show our true strength of character as supporters after defeat (a dubious one or not).
Ancelloti’s comments about Chelsea having more than Utd are going to find their way up his arse before this season is over. Let’s start by putting a few past Everton and getting a string of victories together. Looks like it is going to be Evans and Brown to replicate what Vida and Rio did two seasons ago.
And Obertan looks to

Let’s start by putting a few past Everton and getting a string of victories together. Looks like it is going to be Evans and Brown to replicate what Vida and Rio did two seasons ago.
And Obertan looks to have overtaken Nani for the left wing slot. Honestly after last night I could care fucking less as to who plays for us, as long as we win this league. After last night, I don’t care about any other competition. the PL is now officially the priority. Time to put these Cheksea (and Arsenal) fans back in their place. For the umpteenth time.
night night boys – got to go home now. May visit again after the return fixture to see how you are all holding up.
In the meantime remember the only way you can get beaten is if your opponents are indulging in “unsportsmanlike behavior, fouling, diving, and subtle cheating” or if “the ref was a blue in disguise” so that you “are robbed of a result in these big matches”.
Then just ask one question. If you so obviously “OUTPLAYED those cunts and the game was outstanding haha ando,fletcher and carrick shat on their midfield”, how come you only had 2 shots on target all game?
Fucking rich that Ancelloti makes this comment – for all who care to remember when we played Milan a few years back every tackle by a United player was greeted with Kaka and company waving imaginary cards.
His last bunch of shit that Chelsea having more than us will come back to bite his fat Italian arse – wait for January through to May.
What a stupid comment, take a look at the Barcelona game Carlo, take a look!
Mr Reasonable – What sort of “fan” are you? Haven’t even seen the game yet. Must be a huge Chelsea fan then. Since 2005?
@MrReasonable Yea I’m looking forward to you coming back on the boards after the return fixture! Justice will be done when we’re kissing that Premir League trophy for the 19th time.
Just out of interest, how many league titles have Chelski won? Not enough to talk about it as ‘their’ trophy!
@ mrreasonable
i had a long and detailed post easily counter pointing every single incident to support the claim of chelsea’s unsportmanlike behavior, fouling, diving, and subtle cheating.
what’s the use? you might as well come on here and state 1+1=3 because john terry said so. there’s no arguing with people who can’t see reality for what it is.
cheers mate, at the end of the season if chelsea manage to have more points than united, come back here and crow, and i’ll say fair play, the table doesn’t lie.
but do us all a favor and watch the game again with a neutral fan and see if they don’t see any of the officiating discrepancies and unsportmanslike conduct, subtle cheating, etc. committed by chelsea players. i would think that a neutral fan could spot them and then maybe you’ll see some of those unsavory tactics which won chelsea the game.
Chelsea practically run games. They’re terrible for it. All clubs are guilty of harassing officials at times, but Chelsea are incessant with their pursuing of the referees.
Cheap, unfounded criticism by the rentboy prick.
King Eric
Bugger – you got me, I couldnt resist one last peek and cant help myself responding.
I first went to Stamford Bridge over 45 years ago. There is a fair chance I have seen more Manchester United players live over the years than you have (but the odds are I am older than you so no big deal). I have seen Best, Law and Charlton play many times. I saw Giggs in his first season and (I think) pretty much every season since. I have seen Chelsea win a cup final at Old Trafford. I have seen Chelsea lose to you in a cup final at the old Wembley and beat you in a final at the new Wembley. I was in Moscow. I have seen us win one charity shield against you and lose 2 on penalties. Yes I gave this one a miss. I let my 85 year old father go instead with his grandson. I went on holiday and couldnt be arsed to watch a replay of a glorified friendly when I got back.
You currently have your least inspiring team for over a decade. I thought Rooney played the best I have ever seen him play live yet your team which you all say played so well still couldnt beat a team you all say played so badly. Busby never played 451 at Stamford Bridge and neither did Fergie till recently.
Dont get me wrong I am Chelsea’s biggest critic and (I hope) quite reasonable. I was disappointed with our performance going forward and thought we played poorly but we still had enough to snuff out everything you had to offer.
It may all change and you go on to win everything. I am not going to make one of those stupid bravado predictions but some of you need to take off you paranoid rose tinted glasses because if you don’t there could be a lot of disappointment coming your way. Compared to your high standards of the last decade, currently you are really not that special.
You are now free to swear at me as much as you like and to vent all of your pent up anger but it doesnt hide the truth and some of you know it.
So, Chelsea have been fined once in the last 2 years, and that for the biggest farce of refereeing ever seen on this planet, not some half-baked, matter-of-opinion, didn’t-make-a-blind-bit-of difference event on Sunday?
Tell me, how often has SAF been banned or fined this calendar year?
I await your next lie with complete indifference. No wonder you’re the laughing stock of the game.
@ Sterdlk
No, I am not insecure…its just that I was still seething from seeing our team being robbed by ridculous refereeing decisions again.
And when someone comes on here with the obvious intention of provoking united fans and feeling quite ‘refreshed’ with drivel spouted by opposition managers and so called pundits, he’s going to get what he deserves.
But now that its a new day i am quite prepared to sit down and analyse things over with you point by point. But if the intention is to provoke a response, then you are going to get one, both from me and the team….cant wait till this international break is over
@ squiddy
You are a completely deluded idiot aren’t you.
All decisions are a difference of opinion….
Not made a blind bit of difference–yeah right….
1)non-awarding of a penalty,
2)faulty off-side decision preventing a one-on-one opportunity,
3)wrongful award of a free-kick directly leading to the goal,
4)failure to spot an obvious foul in the build-up on Wes Brown,
5)inability to apply the rule correctly in deciding offside on Drogba–
how many game changing decisions do you need to win a game??
There is more personality in a bar of soap than what there is in Ancelotti.
Just was well that transfer ban was lifted, otherwise they’d never have been able to include ‘Rowan’ Atkinson in the team for sunday.
Chelsea were shown up to be the ordinary team they are – and they will drop a lot of points in december
Chelsea have a PhD in surrounding the referee.

btw, u forgot that Tiny Tears also should have been sent off
1. Valencia was never ahead of Terry. Valencia was shrugged off because he’s a pansy. He was up against Cole all day, who turned out to have a broken leg, and couldn’t get past him either. Embarassing dive from Valencia.
2. Rooney agreed he was offside and it was one of the only decisions he didn’t argue all day. Bad luck.
3. Cole was kicked 5′ up in the air. How high would he need to have been launched for it to be a foul against Fletcher, who’s one of the worst and most blatant hackers in the game. Definite yellow card tackle. The ref bottled it, which was blatantly obvious asd he was allowing Utd players to hack away at will all day without giving a foul. Definitely in United’s pocket.
4. Wes Brown is a poof. If Drogba had gone down the way Brown went down you’d have been pissing yourself laughing. As it is, I’m pissing myself laughing. He tried to compete he failed abysally, like the 3rd division, 3rd rate defender he is.
5. Jeff Winter reviewed the incident and found that the prone and pansified Brown played Drogba onside at the time of the header. Oops, wrong again.
So tell me, if Atkinson was in such a bad position to see the non-foul by Drogba, how good a position was he in to see Evans’ kamikaze attack on Drogba? Another red card you got away with with your bought off refs. How you ended up with more than 9 players left on the pitch is one of life’s mysteries. Biased ref in Utd’s favour all game is the most obvious reason.
And if Utd were so good all game, how come the only shots on target were from outside the area and picked off with ease by Cech? That’s what you get by playing a 6 man defence at the Bridge. It’s SAF’s pure cowardice that explains why you’ve only won 4 games at the Bridge since the PL began.
Nice to have the natural order restored. Can we play you every week? We’ll try and play a full back with more than one leg next time, just to give you a chance and stop you crying all week, like you are now.
Classic result.
Squiddy – Can’t be arsed to respond fully as off to bed but Wes a “third rate defender”. Just ask him how many Premier league medals he’s got. Oh and Champions League medals. Enjoy it up there because you know when United get going they will be claiming 4 on the spin. Small club. No history, no class.
P s Any credibility your post may have had has gone as soon as you mentioned Jeff Winter. Is there a bigger ABU out there? Aside from Atkinson and Poll.
Squiddy
3 league titles in more than 54 years, and have never won the european cup – and yet Chelsea think they are a big club.
They aren’t even the biggest club in London.
LAUGHING STOCK.
