Thinkingallowed

Was watching Football Focus on Saturday and they decided to go to a section on interviewing a female footballer; I was just about to switch over when on the screen was the lovely Emma Louise Jones (a former Leeds footballer) interviewing a WSL lady (who I really have no remembrance of ). I do remember staying to watch Emma, what a babe.

During her playing days she was a little over weight but a make up and diet seems to have done the trick.

Edit.

Just realised this is the  Ukraine topic, thought I was in football thread. 

Apologies but may be needed an off topic diversion. Sorry

Fixed for yer, NC

I thought Chelsea had to remove 3 from their jerseys??

Apparently they are in talks with 3,so said they will be wearing it today. Also they don't have any kit without the logo, so may have to cover it in future as they can't buy new ones. 

Never mind, let's just enjoy the situation while it lasts. 🤣

Chelsea have withdrawn a request for Saturday's FA Cup tie at Middlesbrough to be played behind closed doors, the Football Association says.

The Premier League side are not allowed to sell tickets for any matches after the government froze the assets of Russian owner Roman Abramovich.

Chelsea initially made the request "for matters of sporting integrity".

"After constructive talks between the FA and Chelsea, the club has agreed to remove their request," the FA said.

"The FA remains in ongoing discussions with Chelsea, the Premier League and the government to find a solution that would enable both Chelsea fans to attend games and away fans to attend Stamford Bridge, while ensuring sanctions are respected."

Chelsea said it was "grateful for the FA's continuing efforts to help us find a solution".

The prime minister's official spokesman said the government is working with the football authorities to allow more Chelsea supporters to attend away matches, but added that any changes must ensure "no additional revenue can be raised given the club is owned by an individual now sanctioned in the UK".

Championship club Middlesbrough said they would challenge the "bizarre" and "ironic" request - which was set to be discussed at an FA meeting on Wednesday - "in the strongest possible terms".

Middlesbrough chairman Steve Gibson told the Athletic: "Chelsea and sporting integrity do not belong in the same sentence.

"Where is the intellect of Bruce Buck, the chairman of Chelsea, who has been an apologist for his owner, where the trophies won over 19 years have come from the corrupt money provided by Abramovich?" Gibson added.

"Where is the intellect of the chairman of Chelsea when it comes to playing his games at home in front of his season-ticket holders? Does he want to play all his away games at empty stadiums?

"Abramovich has been kicked out of football and Bruce Buck should be kicked out of football too."

Chelsea Supporters' Trust had earlier asked the club to withdraw the request, saying it "does not benefit" any fans.

Gibson bang on there, integrity and intelligence don't belong in the same sentence as Chelsea. 

Love the comment from Tuchel moaning about the away travel costs restrictions. Said that players were more likely to suffer injuries from going by bus rather than planes. 🤣

Claims it's not about pampering players, but them suffering soft tissue injuries. 

Yeah right, fucking bunch of pampered cunts the fucking lot of them. Shut them down and bulldoze the ground.

And their fans would slate Arsenal for it.

Multiple managers have wasted money, Ragnarok not likely to be there next season so it's a right state.

Think top four is a stretch now .. Arsenal playing too well and games in hand 

Be a massive failure if they don't make it, will lose a lot of money. That wage bill is high and Ronaldo will be out of the door.

Desperate times ahead possibly.

It is difficult for me to decide which bunch of supporters I dislike the most .... but it has to be Arsenal fans by the way they treated Wenger.....

For more than a decade they built a new ground and stayed in the top 4 and still the fecking needy little children on the terraces thought it was their RIGHT to win every game, every league, every cup.

I can not believe what a bunch of arrogant cunts they became after Wenger started sorting the club out.
