Insults to whom? If you still mean fans, I've already pointed out that I've done no such thing. If you mean Mourinho and Diego Costa, well, you're in for a long game here.

But I am insulted. Some people are just not as thick-skinned as you. This is not the first time I have brought up the matter here, although I've stated it less directly before. Why is it so vitally important for you to verbally abuse the team here? Would it hurt you if you just tried to be less offensive? There are other ways to criticise and knowing how to grade your language and be more considerate of other people's feelings might help you in the long run.
 
No, but you hate Chelsea & direct hate at their fans; the comparison you've just made.
i.e. this is like someone saying they hate Axl Rose, hate Guns, & hate the fans of Guns.

No, I don't direct hate at their fans personally. I consider their support at their own stadium, or lack thereof, to be a part of what makes Chelsea an irritating team to me. That's not insult.

I'm sorry that I didn't foresee it being possibly offensive. It's not important at all, it's just a random post. You said you give a shit when someone insults the fans, an act that I have not committed, and that's why this discussion is continuing. If you're offended by my insults of the club, Mourinho and Diego Costa then fine, I apologize. But I won't apologize for an act that I have not committed.
 
I realise you didn't explicitly offend the fans. But your insults to the team, combined with other people calling Chelsea's fans wankers, morons and douchebags is too much. Chelsea is by far the most insulted team here and I've kept quiet for a very long time. This treatment has been going on for months. Sorry but I can't put up with it.

I'll make my best efforts not to insult the team. Don't expect me to shy away from making fun of the team if they lose though :p

Meanwhile, it's lucky of me to have no Tottenham fans on the forum, they're smashing Arsenal at Emirates right now. Up 1-0, deserve to be up by more, honestly.
 
This game is more embarrasing than the Bayern game on Wednesday, honestly. Spurs are dominating. Gunners look gassed.

Edit: Gibbs scores from an Özil assist! All even now. Spurs couldn't capitalize on their chances.
Edit2: Full time. I'll take a draw from a garbage display. Shame we couldn't capitalize on City losing a point at Villa.

Splendid round of results from a United point-of-view! United win, City draw, Arsenal draw. And Liverpool and Chelsea lose. Not that they're in the title race anyway, but there's always Schadenfreude :D

For the last couple of weeks, I've been contemplating on bringing Mesut Özil to my Fantasy PL squad but saying "Surely he isn't getting another assist next week". He's now had an assist in the last 6 BPL games he's played. Already up to 10 for the season. Fair enough, you're in my squad next week.

And now you know whose replacement he's gonna be:
West Ham have been dealt a massive injury blow with the news Dimitri Payet could be ruled out for three months.
 
Today is the day. Norway's best shot at qualifying for the Euros since the last time we were there.

In the two play-offs we've played since then, we faced very strong opposition. This time around, we face a team on our own level, and we have shown better form towards the end of the qualifying, winning 3 of the last 4 games, where Hungary finished by just beating Faroe Islands by 2-1 and then losing to Greece.

Don't get me wrong, I'm aware we're totally capable of losing this, but I will actually be genuinely disappointed if we don't qualify now. If our play-off opponents had been, say, Ukraine, I would not feel the same way.

Tickets are printed and in a few hours I'm bound for the stadium. Come on Norway!

I've been in Bergen for 2 months this year and I saw how people there loves football. I'm supporting Norway! Martin Oodegaard are going to play this game?

Lykke til, Norge!

The quasi-in-laws live in Bergen, and they definitely love football.
