Guard of Honour on 26 mins, proper Chocolado. No doubting his achievements though, respect to him for that. Apparently JT's now requested that with effect from next season, a day;s length will be changed to 26 hours....and a half hour will of course become 26 minutes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, they covered the trophy ceremony itself, but then cut away to the Thai pundits for their end-of-season "pearls of wisdom" just as about JT was to address the masses. I watched it on True/Bein and I saw him addressing the fans, live and continuously. The after match coverage did jump to the Thai studio several times but for anything important it went back to Stamford Bridge live, so there were all the players with their families and Conte and Terry with the mic.

carmine Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The Terry pudding on 26 minutes was cringeworthy. Such vanity and a chance to shed a tear on the badge despite once holding the club to ransom when approached by City. Guard of honor should have been after the match. And i remind myself neither Tony Adams or Steven Gerrard felt the need to hold the stage in such a manner. That aside he was a fantastic player who's career i have the highest regard.

That is quite unfair . That is how contract negotiations work Chelsea offered him a yearly contract at a reduced salary Man City offered him more money and that was used to get a contract at Chelsea on better terms The bottom line is that JT signed for Chelsea on a yearly contract at a reduction on his previous salary , when JT could easily have moved to USA or China on a huge salary , but he choose to remain at Chelsea on a reduced salary and become a squad player . JT choose Chelsea over money 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being as the game was effectively a dead rubber i don't think that Chelsea should be fined but such stomach churning spectacles should not be allowed to happen again.

Sparkles Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 The Terry farewell was one of the most "tacky " self promotions I have witnessed.You can bet the FA will never let that happen again and neither should it. So a player can orchestrate farewell on his terms.Wondre he didnt sky dive in. Sunderland should also be ashamed for agreeing to it.Before or after the match its a compeition game for heavens sake despite the title already won not a testimonial. Terry was a great player but as a person his character left a lot to be desired. Reminds me of the Chelsea ex CEO minion Pete Kenyon walking around after the CL with a medal around his neck like he has just played 90 minutes while Bobby Charlton quietly put his in his pocker.Mind you Kenyon also donned his shorts to run with the Olympic torch, total tosser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking a shirt off is against the rules, as its regarded as ungentlemanly conduct Applauding a player off the pitch isnt considered to be ungentlemanly conduct 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, individual team shirt sponsors do not dictate the rules to the F.A. Although the shirt sponsors would likely appreciate the extra publicity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I couldn't care less," Terry said on Wednesday after training. "Really. I couldn't care less. All I care about is celebrating with my Chelsea fans. Me and them have an unbelievable rapport -- and we have for 22 years. No one -- whatever you write, or what someone says, or someone's opinion -- can ever get in the way of that. "If that's the way I wanted to go out, that's the way I go out. I've been 22 years here and won so many trophies, if I wanted to play one minute and come off, I would have done it. I wanted to play 26 minutes and come off because it meant a lot to me, the shirt number and the supporters, and so as long as they're happy, I'm over the moon with the reception I got and honestly, I couldn't care less." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post MrTrip Posted May 24, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2017 I loved the JT tribute, substitution and felt the tears in his eyes. I couldn't care less about the bad press and opinions of the haters. I only see him as he is shown in the picture below through my blue rose tinted glasses.You can use whatever form of abuse you choose because I'll never change my opinion on the Chelsea legend CFC[emoji170][emoji170][emoji170] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
