Story doing the rounds is that Terry allegadly hurt his back on the dodgems / go-karting

Looks like he's going to be out of action for several weeks as a result.

Probably means if it's true that Chelsea will pay what it takes to sign Richards.

I believe his mother is unwell and he's on compassionate leave?

Chelsea are set to be without John Terry for some time after manager Jose Mourinho revealed the England defender may need surgery on his back.

Terry has not played since the win over Newcastle on 13th December and was again absent for the Boxing Day draw with Reading.

And following the 2-2 draw with The Royals, Mourinho revealed he does not know when Terry will be fit to return.

"I've no idea when John Terry will be back," said Mourinho.

"I want John to be back as soon as possible. The medical department will have to make a decision soon.

"The medical department have said surgery might be a possibility. I want them to make a quick decision.

"I don't know how long he will be out for - three days, three weeks or three months, I don't know."

Out for a month apparently, and due to miss our league game against them.

Big loss for them hes a power house at the back for them

The Guardian says they want him back to play against us, but his surgeon thinks he should do only light training for three months. Let's compromise,light training only until they've played us, then....

Hope he comes back too early and does his back in for the rest of the season.

Since I'm sure we agree he makes a big difference to their team, have you forgotten you might well want Chelsea to win the title?

I don't want Chelsea to win the title.

[Neil Young]

OK, I remember desertscouser saying he would prefer them to Man Utd. I may have got it wrong though.

Of course, none us actually wants Chelsea to win the title - it's about what you think is the least worst option.

F*ck! I keep forgetting. It's so difficult to support these c*nts.

As much as we all hate Chelsea I'm sure we can all agree that them winning the title is far more preferable than the Scum winning it.

[Shaggy]

I don't want Chelsea to win the title.

So you'd prefer United to win it?

Obviously. I can't get my head around the fact there might be Reds out there who'd prefer United to win it than Chelsea??

Like DS says though, it is tricky remembering to want those Chav *******s to keep winning.
