Flinkers

Happy to hear you‘re doing better Mark!

The ref’s been pretty good in fairness. The two linos need a little more work. Very slow with the flag

Try firstrowsports. Used to be good for me

Anyone got a reliable link for this game? Used to watch legit on DAZN but they’ve lost the rights here in Germany to $ky. Not willing to pay €30 a month for a ticket to watch one game a week. Tried the soccerstreams reddit but can’t seem to see the links... Any help via PM would be much appreciated!

Belated Happy Birthday, Chara!!

The hardest part for me was the three days of no food after the procedure and waiting for the biopsy results - uncomfortable from the excision, nervous and tetchy from lack of food does not help one's mood at all!! Wishing you a speedy recovery, Mark!

Thank you Eden for your skill, goals, assists and commitment. I would have loved it, if he’d stayed but can’t begrudge him his move after everything he’s done for us. Just hope the dream lives up to the reality... We’ll miss his goals and creativity, and next season has just got exponentially harder, but if we can consolidate this year, bed in a couple of youngsters and use our cash stockpile wisely when we can, we should be good going forward. KTBFFH!

Congratulations to Daniel Sturridge. Double CL winner with zero minutes played!

Congratulations on another trophy my fellow Blues! We’ve been through the wringer this year but once again showed that when silverware’s at stake, Chelsea always come to play! Cheers to Blue Fizz!

And IMO she’s worth interviewing. Whether she’s the right candidate is another story

Or conversely, the “Harry Kane, Mo Salah and Kevin de Bruyne aren’t good enough for the Premier League” argument. l admit, I also googled whether there were any female managers coaching men’s teams. After Shelley Kerr and Corrine Diacre, I wasn’t getting too many hits. It’s unusual yes, but Emma Hayes has done her time down in the gumboot patches. I just think she shouldn’t be dismissed that easily. She’s certainly done more than most ex-pros have done before getting an academy job.

And I’m not suggesting they should! I’m suggesting a coach with 6 years experience coaching at Chelsea, who has won silverware and is quite clearly a talented coach should be taken under consideration and not simply dismissed because their achievements have been won in the wrong gender.
