[Philip Rolfe]

Yeah, no flashy titles here, we can't afford them now Roman's being tight.

Anyway, we're back for another season as we attempt to reclaim what is rightfully ours. We'll also try to better that 4th place, and attempt to bring the Premiership Trophy back to the Bridge. The following details some Chelsea related goodness, which will be added to this week but not after that as I blatantly won't be arsed. But it'd be nice if we could reach more than the 54 pages of last season. Y'know.

2007/08 Premiership Fixtures
Here

Some notes on these fixtures then. Starting at home to a newly promoted team again. In recentish years we've had Wigan and Sunderland in this fashion, and naturally nicer to start at the Bridge. The big three, we play away each before they come to the Bridge, Liverpoool is early and United very late, I wonder if it gets cunningly re-arranged. Villa home Boxing Day, and a wonderful wonderful Fulham away on New Year's Day is immense. Finish at home to Bolton, last time we did that, we relegated them.

Our fixtures after CL Group games:

Matchday One: Sept 18/19
- Manchester United A

Matchday Two: Oct 2/3
- Bolton A

Matchday Three: Oct 23/24
- Manchester City H

Matchday Four: Nov 6/7
- Everton H

Matchday Five: Nov 23/24
- Derby A

Matchday Six: Dec 11/12
- Arsenal A

Could've been easier but to be fair we don't know where we'll be yet.

Oh, and since it's unveiled today, The new away kit

[BBB]

no champions next to the title?

[Rocky Rockstar]

fo chelsea \o/

[Cottager]

**** off chelsea.

less history than newcastle

[gonch19]

rightfully ours

[Gav Stone]

How's Ryan Bertrand doing? You stole him off Gillingham.

[Go-Go]

Mon Chelsea - didn't know we had confirmed Alex coming back? Anyone know how many years he has left on his contract?

Hope we go back to 4-3-3 this year.

Oh, and Jose will never leave us \o/

[Clyde Smith]

Why is Glen Johnson not listed? I believe the kid has a great future at Chelsea, especially once he stops pretending to be a defender and becomes a winger. :thup:

[jhype]

So what Semi will we play/beat you lot in this year?
