The Yank funnyman knows nothing about football.

A typical Chelsea fan then...

If you thought Will Ferrell's comedy was funny, then his taste in football teams is even funnier. Appearing on Jon Stewart's Daily Show, you know the programmee you sometimes catch yourself watching on More4, Ferrell was with fellow chuckle brother John C. Reilly to promote their new movie, Step Brothers. Which, if it's anything like their last film together, Talladega Nights, we know we'll be rushing out to see. And when we say "rushing", what we mean is we'd sooner watch a sex tape featuring David Mellor, Phil Taylor and Anne Widdicombe. With a Max Mosley cameo of course.

Anyway, bizarrely, Ferrell was wearing a Chelsea shirt on the show, though we're not quite shure why. What we do know is though, that with stonewash jeans and a damn fine beer gut, he wouldn't look too out of place on most British terraces.

Thanks to Unprofessional Foul for the screenshot. And to see some Will Ferrell stuff we do love, check out his spoof Old Spice adverts...

For when a rumour mill isn't enough

 

 

Roman Abramovich has emerged as a key figure in the transfer saga of Cristiano Ronaldo.

 

Real Madrid hope to complete the move by the middle of July for €80 million and then will immediately sell Robinho to Chelsea for a generous €50 million thus giving them a net outlay of just €30 million. That is right, Abramovich will make it possible for Real to sign Ronaldo for just £20 million, that is a steal.

 

The operation was agreed earlier this week in a meeting between the Real president Calderon and executives at Banco Santander. The reason Abramovich will assist the transfer is obvious as it will weaken a rival, Fergie will be furious.

Champions League Final special…

It seems that Paddy just loves trying to thrust money back in your wallet. He just never stops with his money-back specials. And it’s no different this week, as good old Mr. Power is offering to refund all losing Win-Draw-Win, Correct Score, 1st/last/anytime goalscorer and Half-time/Full-time market bets if Ronaldo scores in normal time. Which, let’s be frank for a second here, is barmy given Ronnie’s record this season. Paddy obviously doesn’t fancy raking in the millions tonight.

Either that, or he knows something we don’t about the greasy Portuguese with foot Tourettes.

With that in mind, we’re not going to plump for him to score, as it would be entirely pointless. Though it has just dawned on us that that may be the exactly what Paddy wants us to do…

Nonetheless we’ll let ourselves be swayed by the bloke who’s clearly an Irish version of the demon headmaster and Paul McKenna. Because we going for Man Utd to win in extra time @ 9/1, so ten of the Queen’s finest will bring back a cool ton. Added to that we’re having Carlos Tevez to score first @ 13/2. A fiver on that wins £37.50.

So that’s another £15 less off we’ll be tomorrow. If you also fancy lightening the weight of your wallet, then join us and Lump On! here…

This time it's Chelsea...

The new Chelsea home kit for 2008/09. Apparently its "Radical cuts and 3D designs follow the shape of your body to increase comfort and improve performance." Which is nice.

It goes on sale on the 8th May, priced at £45 adults, £35 kids (the one Shauny is modelling no doubt...)

Tiny sheds, major sulks, and Northern pigeons...

Where: Oakwell, 17.30
What you hope to see: Avram Grant forced to do his teamtalk from a tiny Wickes shed.
What you’re likely to get: Nicolas Anelka and Didier Drogba in a 90-minute sulk-off, with the winner the one who can insult the ref, dive and throw a strop the most during the game.
Fact! 99% of Barnsley fans own a pigeon.

And by love, we mean he wants to "kill" them of course...

The Special One hasn't been as missed at Stamford Bridge as some maybe thought he would be, with Avram Grant filling the Portuguese large shoes admirably since his departure. And Jose's kept rather quiet in the meantime, as the media turn to Kevin Keegan to fill their newspaper columns with comedy soundbites. But now the big man is back, and with an almighty bang.

"I still feel Chelsea is a part of me, I'll have Chelsea in my heart forever, I left and for five months you couldn't get a bad word from me in relation to the club and you cannot do it in the future too."

Ah, isn't that sweet. Well, until the man tipped to take over at Barcelona was asked about the possibility of coming up against his side in the Champions League in future,

"If I play them in the Champions League, I want to go there and kill them - that's my message."

How pleasant. And they say time is a good healer...
