Luckily we get ESPN so I'm sitting here watching the game live on the box praying for miracles :)
Upson is out which is probably a bonus, Parker being out isn't so good, Freddie Sears being back is good news and no Keane = no loss.
No Torres starting for Chelsea which causes mixed emotions as he looks like he'll never score but sod's law says he will probably find the net against us.
Amazed to see the rain pouring down as we've got blue skies and sunshine here in Southend which isn't that far away?
Bridge ignores knobhead as expected which will probably be the story on the news.
Hopefully Phil Dowd isn't part of the syndicate of refs who have put a large bet on the Hammers going down and will ref fairly (I won't hold my breath).
First 10 minutes - West Ham playing like strangers looks bad for the rest of the match, first dodgy refs decision as Hitzlesperger is booked after a Kalou dive.

Rest of the first half - West Ham playing pretty well after the bad start several chances and Cole seems up for it.
43 minutes and Wank Lampard scores :( hopefully a lightning bolt will take him out like it has the floodlights :)

70 minutes gone still 1-0, Mark Noble injured sadly, the rain has made the passing game impossible for both sides.
West Ham still looking dangerous but Chelsea go closest when Sideshow Bob hit the bar. Keane's just missed a sitter f'kin Spuds reject.

FUCK!! I knew it, should have put money on it :(

3-0 as predicted but feel for the Hammers who weren't that bad, Gabbidon Sears and Spector all did well after coming in, we missed Parker and Noble's injury didn't help, the waterlogged pitch had a part in the last 2 goals but obviously Chelsea deserved the win but with better finishing it could have been closer.
Being in row 1 of the Shed,I got absolutley fucking soaked mate. Boiling hot all afternoon in the beer garden,still sunny on the way to the ground and when I got in there complete with chicken pie,it pissed down. I've never got that wet since I've had that seat! Chicken pie and water was a new one on me :)
ReplyDeleteGreat result for us. Just fed up Utd won again!
Who drank all the pies? lol
ReplyDeleteGreat result for you, told you they'd be 2nd :)
Only similar experience I can think of was many years back I was going to the Epsom derby by coach, took about 5 hours stuck in a stinking hot coach going round the south circular at walking pace and just as we all got off and made our way across the downs to the racetrack the heavens opened and I got soaked through, had water running off my nose into my first plastic cup pint :(
We're only 2nd because Arsenal are so shite!
