So, to the tie of the round for Derby County and Chelsea fans.
A fascinating match for both sets of fans - Derby fans curious to pit their team against the multi-billionaire artificial entity that is Chelsea FC and Chelsea fans already declaring that the Cup is a distraction, it means nothing and lets give the kids a run out.....
Derby stuttered to an unconvincing loss/assault and battering to Wigan, bringing to end a superb run of results - it had to happen. Now how do we respond?
Chelsea, famous for a boot, pensioners, buns, flowers and a road named after a monarch used to be in reaches lower than Derby (Mmmmmm, I remember those pitched battles on the Popside) have rejuvenated due to the break-up of the old Soviet Union, the selling off of Russia's natural assets and a chap named after an empire who shows a marked reluctance to return to Russia.
(See we get Pride Park Plaza, history and they get Gazprom)
I will try to get team news but again may rely on the stalwart Mojaca to do so - thank you.
Derby County 0 - 2 Chelsea Match Thread FA

Just reread your splendid acceptance on the other thread. Kind comments. BUT do you really think you will getaway with paying tribute to 666 - for his "spelling and punctuation"!

Anyone else notice that this article had been taken off the the Chelsea board?
Would it be because we offended their sensibilities or Admin 1 or Admin 2, is it because YOU decided?
Any chance of an explanation - a decent one please?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Probably because of the comment deleted by Admins from one of our posters
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Which comment?
Or maybe I can guess

Igor To be fair they posted some decent and complimentary stuff after the game on the other thread.
Also think of it as preparation for next season - we will have to move out of our comfort zone.

Heb, we'll have to engage a 'sledging' coach

And an anti-WUM impact team.....luckily the Auks now help to identify just this sort of talent......
