Your Shout - Beauty of the Blues a thing of joy forever

Published: 5 May, 2011

WHAT a heart-warming weekend of beauty that was!  

The drab winter months were finally blown away by glorious blustery sunshine and two great questions vexing mankind were answered.

Question 1: Is there anything more fun than beating Titterham Hotspuds at the Bridge?

Answer: Yes! Beating them at the Bridge and not even scoring one of the goals.

Question 2: Is there any actual point to the Gonneurs?

Answer: Yes! Once in a blue moon they will beat Man United so that the northern hordes can once again be bewildered by the incandescent beauty of Chelsea FC.

So I want to say thanks to the Goons and Spuds who made my birthday celebrations truly memorable this year. I shall forever acknowledge your contributions should Chelsea be crowned champions and complete the most remarkable comeback in history. 

Finally, if supporters of the second and third best teams in London are wondering who to support this Sunday I give you the potential sight of Sir Alex Ferguson’s shiny red baboon’s bottom of a face exploding in rage. And the potential sound of his other bottom squeaking so loudly we can hear it right here in the mighty metropolis. 

So, c’mon you Blues!
