Okay, so why wasn't the clear penalty on Costa the major talking point after our game with them? Because the footballing media, especially Sky, is over-saturated with ex-Liverpool players.

The campaign Mourinho spoke of was not just these decisions, but also the way the media is so vehemently anti-Chelsea and anti-Mourinho. Please just read the article by Ashton that the Daily Mail is leading with right now. It's ridiculous.

The decisions - the media double standard - the pro-Liverpool bias (which admittedly doesn't affect us alone) - That's the "campaign" Mourinho was referring to. And please, stop using the word grand conspiracy because I never used it.

Are you meaning this foul by Skertel?


Tbh mate, and believe me when I say I am far from a fan of his, but it wouldn't get in the top 5 "penalties that should have been conceeded by Skrtel" list. Possibly not even in the Chelsea alone category - didn't he have a headlock on Cahill/Terry sometime recently?

Find it hard to argue against a pro Liverpool bias in the media but I'm an Evertonian so not sure I'm entirely neutral. Have you considered that some of this "campaign" against Chelsea/Mourinho is a combination of bad luck, your team's actual behaviour (running to the ref to complain about the slightest decision whilst not being lily white yourselves), a desire for eyeballs and the knowledge that Mourinho will bite?

@james baldwin , we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by kopites. Who's gonna do it? You? You, @james baldwin? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for David Luiz, and you curse the Kopites. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That Istanbul, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.

You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall, you need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Nicholson's put on some weight over the years mate, but FFS...your chins...the state of them.

Listen to the way this thunder**** speaks about our manager. With pure hatred. Where has he when Ferguson was perpetually berating match officials for the better part of two decades, the coward.



Mourinho gives them what they want : headlines. But then they turn around and drag him in the mud. Of course, he's just the outspoken foreigner who many people hate, so he's good game, right? Sometimes I wish he becomes more like Ferguson was to them and tells these people where to go.

I don't think he's too happy about last season.

Classic speech from Jack.

I just wish you won't have anything to moan about when some ex-Liverpool player starts talking crap about your players, manager or club.

Happens all the time mate. The people you're referring to are called "the majority of football pundits and reporters". They like to belittle us and kindly try to sell our best players for us. Lovely people tbh.
 

My first away (in the flesh) since Sunderland. Was gutted because of the good defending we did and the near celebration moments. Also with the nature of their winner, but before the game I thought we'd lose..... So bring it on, Young boys.

It's because America and the British are in bed together politically. America own certain teams, The Russians are a superpower in England's back garden but it's Brittish media so it's thier weapon to use. It's dirty imperialism. If you want it to change you need a mass revolution of the working class. But we do need to give Martinez another season before we can make a decision on him.
