100% record maintained against Mackems

Saturday was Sunderland at home, and it was a pretty ropey game. Torrential rain and thunder/lightning, the complete disappearance of any atmosphere at Stamford Bridge now that the away fans have been moved (and the prawn sarnies have moved in), and not the most glamorous of opposition.

They started fairly well for a team that have lost all their games so far, but we never got out of first gear. The best that can be said about the game is that Kevin Pike, the worst lino in the world didn't actually cock anything up. Which is more than can be said for Mike Dean, the pathetic little Hitler who booked Joe Cole for diving 2 minutes after coming on as a sub, just a second after he was smacked in the face by the arm of the defender!

A great reaction from Geremi saw him score from the mix-up in the Sunderland defence and the result was achieved. Drogba got one later to make it 2-0 final score, from a superb Damien Duff cross.

The Gate 13 steward who has more than a passing resemblance to Hercule Poirot got a bit arsey when some joker threw a paper aeroplane at him, which set off the entire lower tier making paper planes out of the junk mail provided by The Sun for the afternoon. That will be the last time that particular marketing avenue is explored then. Thankfully.

The evening was boosted by the news that Man City had forced a draw with Man Utd and that the Mighty Boro managed to beat Arsenal. The pathetic paedo in charge up there did his usual petulant interview, using only "yis" and "non" answers. Which is great in reality, because no-one actually wants to listen to the myopic cretin anyway!

Anderlecht on Tuesday. A ridiculous 46.50 plus 1.50 Barnett tax. Outrageous.
