Some years ago, when Baroness Philippine de Rothschild was entertaining Robert Mondavi at the chateau that bears the famous family name, they were talking about the things that wine makers like to talk about: grapes, soil, sun. Then she said: 'Making wine is a pretty simple business. It's the first 200 years that's difficult'.

Just like that – voila! Mondavi, quite a player himself, crept back to northern California, pierced to the quick. There are certain things understood in the blood, the first lady of wine was saying, which constitute an inheritance that has nothing to do with spending money or vaulting ambition.

FULL STORY.....!!!!!

Ooooooh, what's with all the bitterness to Chelsea today Red? 2 topics on them today !! :o

They popped up in my inbox and I just had to share.

The first one was about Abramovich personally, not Chelsea.

Seriously though, I was always going to get stories after the game, I'll post the bad ones about United too. If I get any....! :D

How about the one that the top three teams in the World today are

1) Barcelona

2) Lyon

3) Chelsea

8) Manchester United.

Of course another story is the man who was asked how he would get a top of the range car.

" I would go out and buy one" he replied. " Do you think I'd put a piece of steel in the ground and wait for it to grow?"

I'm no Chelsea fan, check the avatar, but I would say "good luck to 'em" and wish that we had a 'tame' billionaire at Derby. I see no problem that Chelsea are able to buy 'everything that moves', any supporter of any team would like their team to be in that position.

What happens when he gets bored and moves onto his next project? Which I sincerely hope is Aberdeen!
