QUOTE(Krovaxq @ Jan 16 2009, 11:46 AM) That is so not true mate, please watch it. State some names who wanted that term on Chelsea. Here's the link mate. http://www.brandrepublic.com/bulletins/br/...ll-drinks-firm/QUOTE Chelsea FC beaten to Chelski trademark by small drinks firm
One-time Chelsea chairman Ken Bates had previously approached Europa Wines with proposals to sell its rights to the Chelski name or to enter into a joint venture with the club. This post has been edited by Duke Red: Jan 16 2009, 11:53 AM

TU Duke & Everdying. No offense meant to Chelsea fans. Actually I like RA hence Chelski. He was like a fresh air to appear on the footie scene.
Football is a beautiful game. We should welcome anybody that will popularised the EPL!!!!!

How can they take offence when their own club wanted to trademark it? It would be similar to how Newcastle fans took offence to a poster that called them "the zebras" when that's what they are called in England. I just think people are defensive by nature but it does help to check one's facts first.

I just think people are defensive by nature but it does help to check one's facts first. The thing is that they would take offence over nothing, when they themselves know very little about their club. However, Newcastle to me is always "barcode" when they would like to be known as "Magpies". Whatever it is, doesn't change the fact that they are still a joke.

Marcos Senna (if we can't get Fabregas) is another one. Off course some of these samba players (Ronaldinho and Dida for eg. ) are past their prime. But hey I want a team that can play the beautiful game not one that gunned and run or cheat or play physically like goons. at the end of the day whether they win the whole enchilada or not is not my objective.
Tevez is another bloke City should consider.
Off course this is really lots of money. But there is still a vast pool of new fans and revenue (North America come to mind). Together with a world class team, the new owners are also hoping to leverage their other business venture. No?

While everyone around the world is gasping for that 110M bid for Kaka, he is one player that Man City doesn't need, what they really need is a hardman in the centre, someone who can provide some steel for the midfield and protect them, with Kaka and Robinho, as well as whoever they sign, they might be scoring goals for fun, but the defence is just as likely to ship the same amount or more.

But I've always rated Kompany in that defensive midfield role. He's a very good player. The thing about Hughes is that he isn't the kind of person who likes to do as told. I expect him to be shown the exit come the end of the season (or possibly earlier).
