Tom, Jimbo, Bill, fellow chatters you at the game tomorrow? We are all meeting in The Eight Bells if you want to meet up? Be so good to actually meet you, shake hands and have a drink.

G8, thanks for the invite, but I will not be going tonight. Also, I will not be attending our first home game of the season.
Hope you enjoy the evening, and we will all be celebrating a Chelsea victory.

Sorry won't be going tonight.

I severely sprained my ankle, locked myself out, then jumped over a 6ft fence. Not my best decision.
Lying in bed, with my leg up in the air above my heart, although, to be honest, I would say I don't have one.

Are you ok, Bill?

Very sore, G8, with very little mobility. It takes about a minute, even with crutches, to put a little weight on foot. Apparently it's a 3rd grade injury, although I have another hospital visit tomorrow, as they think I might also have a fracture.

You did well to clear a 6 foot fence, Bill. I would need a pole vault to hurdle that high! I hope you are better soon, mate.
7.) 24 Aug 2026 13:19:56
Cheers, G8, at least the footie season is back, so I have something to watch.
Hope you have a great night tonight.
8.) 24 Aug 2026 14:10:05
Bill, sorry to hear about your accident and I hope Chelsea cheer you up tonight.
9.) 24 Aug 2026 17:45:13
Thank you, Jimbo.
10.) 24 Aug 2026 18:21:54
Bill, take it easy and no jumping up when we score our third goal tonight.
Get well soon, mate.

Big hello to you lot from me, I used to post as Jose knows best some 14 or 15 years ago, then when the great one left I switched to G8 before taking a long sabbatical. Forgot my password so added a dot at the end. Looking forward to chatting to Bill, Jimbo, Nath in Swindon, our mate in Ireland who had a cafe/shop? Sorry mate, forgot your name? Melbourne, Tom, Trish and the rest of you both old and new.
BTW my old mate who worked for Roman is still about.
1.) 17 Aug 2026 22:30:42
Welcome back, mate.
2.) 17 Aug 2026 22:51:57
Thanks, Tom, how are you keeping, mate?
3.) 17 Aug 2026 23:49:39
Welcome back, G8, great to hear from you l.
4.) 18 Aug 2026 05:28:08
G8, I'm ok, I guess, back drinking JD's so I can't be that bad.
I hope life has been treating you kindly?
Looking forward to a new season, new manager and some new players. I think we will be competitive and at the very least be challenging for a CL spot.
I have always found pre season generally to be a time of unrealistic optimism and then the season develops and then realism hits home.
I love being a Chelsea supporter.

G8, nice to see posters come back to the fold.
6.) 18 Aug 2026 09:09:04
Thanks, Bill. I look forward to a few debates with you, mate.
7.) 18 Aug 2026 09:09:37
Thanks Jimbo, good to be back.
8.) 18 Aug 2026 09:10:58
Glad you are ok, Tom, and back on the JD's, mate. So looking forward to the new season.
9.) 18 Aug 2026 09:32:43
Yes, welcome back G8, and I had always enjoyed your ebullient past posts, including elements of post-match lifestyle. I also seem to recall you once giving your thumbnail impressions of a number of us other posters, though my memory is not what it used to be.
Anyway, good to have you back.
10.) 18 Aug 2026 09:38:34
Hi JBS, thank you so much. Great to be back.
11.) 19 Aug 2026 15:49:10
Me to G8 I forgot my password
I was gianfranco gola
Glad to be back after a long time away
I sort of left when Ed 02 died.
12.) 20 Aug 2026 10:05:14
Hi Abgord, great name. Yes, my old mate gola, I forgot your handle, how are you? it was all a shock with ED02 and I sort of switched away as well.
25 Aug 2026 17:50:09
JBS, our lot were all behind Enzo Fernandez, the boos were all from the Fulham fans, and my guess is that will continue around the country whether he stays with us or goes to City. As far as the game was concerned, we were very good, and that front 3 is the best in the league, but we need a keeper.
You could feel the tension in the crowd every time the ball went in our box. Sanchez is a liability, and Alonso must sign an experienced keeper before the window closes.

Are you ok, Bill?
22 Aug 2026 09:37:55
What is your prediction, Bill? Beat Fulham? Draw? Lose?
22 Aug 2026 08:19:53
Thanks ED01, I totally agree with you. I will predict we finish 4th.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome mate. Going to be a very intriguing season this one, with so many new managers.}
