Chelsea whining must stop
Today sees another article (http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=390277&cc=5901) with a Chelsea player complaining about the ref. This all comes from the top, with Jose seemingly whining after every game. I watched the game vs tottenham, and felt that Graham Poll (The Ref's favorite) did a fine job- Drogba did push off on the disallowed goal, albeit ever so slightly but it doesn't take much of a shove to get someone off balance, Terry did seem overly agressive after the incident in front of the goal and shame on him for doing so when he had a card already. Chelsea pushes everything to the edge- hard fouls, not moving back from the ball for free kicks, diving, complaining about everything during the game- and they have since Jose got there. All of which is fine, but then take your yellow cards with some grace when they come.

No no no... I havnt seen this game but I do have to protect my team... Arsenal after their run seemed to be getting challenged by the ref who held them to a different level... All I have to do is point to the game when Sheva and Ballack scored.. They barely were at the edge of the pitch and just leaned into the stands. BOTH received yellow cards. The Bridge has no area behind the goals to stand that dont have fans... Yet that same referee didnt give van persey a yellow for an even more pompous celebration.. There needs to be some sort of looking at this, nothing against G. Poll
all of this talk of chelsea being "held to a different standard" is nonsense. stop drinking the jose kool-aid! these guys are a bunch of whiners- the only truly classy one is Lamps and the odds are he will be in Barca next year.
