Someone on another forum has claimed the Chelsea bench were giggling during the minute silence, I didn't see anything of this, can someone confirm or deny it
I guess anti-henry (shit name) missed Ballack's berating the ref after his booking of Ivanovic of an assault on Giggs. Not to mention Chelsea's "injuries," Joe Cole's assault on Fletcher, and countless time wasting acts after the goal, which was never a foul by Fletcher and Drogba clearly hacked down Brown.
No no. Didn't see any of that. Just United arguing against the ref and fouling players.
What are you talking about? Clutching at straws I see. I would expect a few thousand traveling fans to be sung down for 90 minutes, not just when you scraped your goal towards the end.
What I find sickening is how plastic and fake your club is. Although to be fair, the whole league knows this. Must drive you mad how you have no history and would be still nowhere near the top of the leauge if you didn't have a Russian Toy Master pulling the clubs strings. His plaything, hobby, etc
Fergie is a legend. The best manager to grace the game.
How dare you even mention him in the same breath as Chelsea Football Club.
Wash your mouth out.
did that Chelsea fan really find Cantona kicking your man at Palace "sickening"?
- fecking hell, what a nouveau blue we have here.
Something obviously rattled your cage, and no it wasn't just towards the end but throughout the entirety of the game which I should know as I was there singing.
And why are you so obsessed about history of another club? We have throughout our 100 years been one of the biggest clubs in the country, one of the most supported clubs in the country and one of the most recognisable English clubs around the world and have produced and played some of the best players to grace the English game.
You really have to get over yourself regarding Ferguson, he is a bully who always puts other people down rather than himself or his team when you don't deliver- he did it tonight, he did it against Liverpool and shamefully against Sunderland- when Mourinho used to do it, it would drive me mad - there are reasons why he and Ferguson and Wenger never saw eye to eye.
You are typical of that Ferguson mindset, you are a very bad loser- you are playing poorly and are five points off the top of the table and you can see it becoming more and more difficult to get to no.19 - what I find truely astonishing is how you claim us to be 'plastic' yet you can hardly judge as your meteoric rise in the last 15 years has some part to do with building a fan base in the far east and a generation of Britons who have never stepped foot within the borders of Greater Manchester - I'm willing to bet I've seen Man United and have been to Old Trafford more times than many on here.

Oh Jesus Christ...yes of course Chelsea were a football club before 2004, but you cannot compare our success during the nineties to what has happened post-Roman. We were already one of the two most recognisable English clubs domestically and worldwide, and the major reason for our 'meteoric rise' was the bully Ferguson, who actually can manage a football team rather well as it happens. The development of modern-day Chelsea is not natural or organic in the same way in which most football clubs bar Chelsea and City have developed over time.

Makes you wonder where this 'generation of Britons' has come from, don't it?
United had the top English crowd ever in 1948, before even I was born, and have topped the attendance table for 90% of the years since then.
For a Chelsea fan to accuse us of a meteoric rise is somewhat, is the word ironic?
You sir are a qwender.
I think our rise may well be down to an all time great manager turning up and BUILDING a team, seeing as the team that started our apparent sudden rise was predominatly youth (you may want to look that term up on wikipedia as a chelsea fan) and not bought in for record transfer fees thanks to some russian sugar daddy being around to throw money at the club so you could go from mid table boredom to champions league final in the space of 7 years.
Btw i live within the boundaries of greater manchester and have been going to old trafford since i was 7 so if you would care to go fornicate yourself with your 'History of Chelsea FC' leaflet that would be very much appreciated.

Did anyone see when Giggs was about to take a corner in the 2nd half that this young female Chav fan (about 10 years old!) was sticking a finger at him. Beyond belief there!
Mid-table boredom? The side that had Zola, Vialli, Flo, Di Matteo, Poyet, Petrescu, Desailly as boring? The side that came third which could still mathmatically win the league going into the penultimate game of the season in your treble winning season? Followed by the team that had Cudicini, Lampard, Hasselbaink, Gudjohnsen, Terry, Desailly, Gallas and Zola as boring? The side that came fourth gaining a champions league place all coming before Mr Abramovich arrived, they both I might add played stunning football which put you to the sword on a few occasions. It isn't as if we were languishing in mediocrity in the years proceeding 2003.

Don't mind them, they're just bitter.
Unlike Chelsea fans, they're a classy bunch though, laughing it up at the expence of an opposition player being seriously hurt by an outrageous challenge and hailing the thug who did the deed and got away with it as a true MU legend.
I'm willing to bet I've seen Man United and have been to Old Trafford more times than many on here.
Trust me, you were outsang for 70 minutes or more. Watch the highlights. Stamford Bridge is a notorious dump of a stadium with an atmosphere to boot. Perhaps you will gain a more rounded and honest opinion of this, and the game itself, when you see it as the rest of the word did, and not while you were sat down in silence in the Mathew Harding Stand.
You may be one of the most supported clubs in the country now, this is due to the bought glory you have had recently. Chelsea "fans" have cropped up all over the place. United have always had that, as have Liverpool. Two true footballing greats. One of the biggest clubs in the country over the past 100 years? Don't make me laugh. You are all deluded. Then again, the Chelsea fans on the Caf tonight have proved that to no ends - thanks for that.
You are plastic through and through. Everything about your club and its recent success is hollow.
Do you not remember the CL final? Im sure you do.. You were led up by Peter Kenyon, a two faced businessman whoes only interest in the game revolves around his own financial gain. We were led up by Sir Bobby Charlton.
Enough said.

Of the two, Cherlsea were much classier bunch on the pitch today. MU players behaved like a bunch of thugs with an attitude, both towars the opposition and the ref. Any other team would have been dealt with in much harsher manner.

Top atmosphere in the Utd end yesterday.
Suprised me TBH.
What happened with the minute's silence? Some people are making a big deal about it but I didn't hear anything.
Maybe a few who were chanting United, then soon stopped when they either realised what they were doing, or told to shut up.
You were there, so maybe you can shed more light on it?
Is there a thread on here about it?
I was next to what happened.
It was observed perfectly by both supporters, however, some Utd fans in the concourse hadn't realised it had started and began a 'United' chant as they walked up the stairs.
They were promptly told to shut up and did so rightfully embarrassed.
Problem over...
What do you expect from a club whose only chant is "Chelsea"? And that's only to help them remember what their club is called.
Hehehhe
Rename this 'The Bitters' thread
You lot should get a fking grip - you were the better side for the most part and Chelsea did not play well but you did not 'outplay them' by a long chalk.
Had this been the reverse ( which it was when you played us at OT two months ago ) it would have been (in fact check it out in threads) a "typical champions performance" "played poor but got the points" " a deserved victory for 'toughing' it out"
Utd have done that enough times to a lot of teams and you should be prepared just once in a while to accept that it can, although rarely, happen to you
Hypocritically you're showing that you have little of what you accuse Chelsea of lacking - class
One thing your money won't buy you is class, nor will it get you the history you crave.
