Back To The Butcher

Who needs a focking DeLorean…!!?   Sometimes there is so much, too much, to write about, talk about, think about…and this is one of those times.

One Too Many Magpies

Chelsea 0     Papiss  Cissé 2 I can keep this one short and not so sweet. Certain players for Chelsea, the usual suspects as it were  ((Malouda, Meireles, Danny Sturridge)), played like donkeys. Papiss Cissé for Newcastle played like the world class striker he’s become. And the result was a 0-2 loss to the…
