When questions about your football club are raised in Westminster and the Prime Minister agrees that the situation needs investigation then you know you are in a bad way. Not because you might be investigated but because the Prime Minister actually knows what Penny Mordaunt, MP for Portsmouth North, is talking about.

1. No, Roberto Mancini, you completely misheard Arsene Wenger. He said a pizza row would help you finish ahead of Manchester United, not Pizarro. 2. Chelsea's deal to send Belgian manboy Kevin De Bruyen back to Genk on-loan includes a break clause that says if the 20-year-old hasn't hit puberty by June then the deal [.

An anthology based on the Mark's writings for CFCnet and the legendary cfcuk fanzine, Chelsea Chronicles - volume one - captures in heartfelt, humorous, diary-format prose a period in Blues history when many fans couldn't quite believe what was going on at Stamford Bridge.
From the glory of the back-to-back title under Mourinho, through the ridiculous reigns of Grant and Scolari, and ending with the FA Cup victory with Hiddink at the helm, Chelsea Chronicles - volume one - provides the reader with an articulate and hugely entertaining insight into True Blue life.

Robin van Persie and his wife, Bouchra, were at Downing Street to meet British Prime Minister, David Cameron earlier this week. Robin is the ambassador of football youth charity 'Street League', which encourages education and football programmes for young people to develop skills they can later use in the working world.

Is this David Cameron's 'excited' face or is this?

Who cares if England's Prime Minister supports Chelsea or not that didn't stop him from squealing like a giddy fangirl to the press after a recent run-in with Frank Lampard at an awards gala.

As he told Now magazine:

"I saw Frank Lampard last night at an awards even, which was exciting for me.

Oh look, Cameron gets asked a question which irks him and straight away resorts to nasty jibes and insults. It does seem to me that Cameron sees the House of Commons as a bothersome inconvenience distracting him from gala lunches and cosy meetings at Chequers.

"It was a game of two halves, but the boys done good"

Bulgarian Prime Minister Boyko Borisov has won the Bulgarian Player of the Year award after polling 44% of the votes in the fans' poll. The 52-year-old, who occasionally plays for third tier team Vitosha Bistritsa, comfortably beat Dimitar Berbatov into second place, with the Man Utd striker polling 24% of the votes.

A very negative team and performance from Villa resulted in a very comfortable performance from Spurs and a score line that flattered Villa. David Cameron had braved the Tottenham wastelands to sit in the stands and watch his lot get outplayed. No doubt getting tips from Spurs on how to control the right and left wings.

It could have been a rough week for John Terry. Fabio Capello's decision to include his captain in the squad against Spain and Sweden in the upcoming international friendlies was gearing up to be the talking point of the build up.

Tottenham's Togolese striker Emmanuel Adebayor has come out of retirement and declared that he is available for the Sparrow Hawks 2014 world qualifier match against Guinea-Bissau next week.

Adebayor who had retired from the national side following a gun attack on the Togolese team bus as it made its way into Angola for the African Cup of Nations last January, has received assurances from the TFF (Togo Football Federation) that player safety will be the of uttermost importance.

Siempre si, la FIFA accedió a que la Selección Inglesa utilize el tradicional "poppy" en el encuentro ante España, regularmente éste lo lucen en la fecha en que se encuentra mas cercana al 11 de Noviembre, pero en esta ocasión es fecha FIFA y había dado la negativa a los Ingleses de utilizarlo.

U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron apologized for comments he made about the "Justice for the 96" campaign. A Downing Street spokeswoman claims his words were misinterpreted and he did not intend to offend victims' families, according to the Daily Mail.
"The Prime Minister regrets if any offence has been caused," the spokeswoman said.

During Prime Minister's questions yesterday, Luciana Berger, Labour MP for Liverpool Wavertree, urged David Cameron to apologise for what she described as 'grossly offensive' comments about the ongoing question for justice over the Hillsborough disaster.

Cameron is alleged to have compared the Hillsborough families' search for closure to a 'blind man, in a dark room looking for a black cat that isn't there'.

A strange revelation hit me today. It's not surprising that Fulham fans don't all agree about what they see; it's surprising that they agree on so much.

The slightly pretentious root of this thought is as follows: this morning I was reading Tim Gautreaux, the American story writer.

Hillsborough documents to be released

Home secretary Theresa May agrees to hand over as many as 300,000 documents on 1989 disaster to independent panel David Cameron was urged to apologise for the police failures and government cover-up surrounding the Hillsborough disaster as MPs voted for the release of all documents relating to the tragedy.

Nice to see Ed Miliband MP, going on the offensive again. Stinging George Osborne with a good quip about his lurid past yesterday (A bit undignified but given Cameron's style and Osborne's awful joke at the GQ Awards who can argue with it) and today he has written to David Cameron demanding that he returns to the House of Commons to correct inaccurate statistics that the Cameron used at PMQs.

A House of Commons debate on the full release of government papers related to the Hillsborough disaster in which 96 people died will be held on October 17.
Members of Parliament have agreed to stage the debate in response to an e-petition on the Downing Street website that has now been signed by more than 140,000 people, many of whom are fans of clubs other than Liverpool.

So that arrogant wretch has been blithely lying about support for the Tories ridiculous NHS reforms...Well done to the NHS organisations for standing up and calling him to account on his arrogant duplicitousness.
The BMA have been screaming from the rooftops about Lansley's bill for months but still Cameron claims to have support for the bill amongst NHS staff.

Read this with interest today, I agree that Nick Clegg is right to defend the human rights act and I agree with his rejection of of the frothy-mouthed tabloid furore every time it is mentioned. It is undeniably a massively important thing and one this country has embraced throughout our history. It is a convenient rabble-rouser for the empty vessel media to get riled about, find any outlying example and report on it as an example of the norm.

As the pivotal game for Arsene Wenger's future gets under way, I cannot help but reflect on the tribulations Arsene Wenger is currently facing.

Wenger, undoubtedly, has been one of the most successful managers of our time. However, I must ask how long Arsenal can live in the past? This isn't a reference to the Arsenal fans, because we all understand their frustration and their needs for a trophy.

The people of Libya are at a crucil point in their history as the rest of the world lookso n praying that the Gaddafi regime doesn't have a sting in the tail.
The rest of the world minus Louise Mensch of course. As the TNC rebels massed outside Tripoli and what's hopefully the endgame played itself out everyone's favourite chick-lit author turned A-List selected MP was busy tweeting like a political groupie and proclaiming it a "Genuine Triumph for David Cameron" whilst bizarrely inventing a paralell universe where Ed Miliband opposed the Libyan intervention.

Liverpool managing director Ian Ayre has angrily responded to housing minister Grant Shapps after he criticized the amount of time it is taking the club to decide on its stadium future.
Liverpool recently had a public disagreement with Liverpool City Council about the delay in deciding whether to remain at Anfield or move to a new stadium in nearby Stanley Park.

Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has backed a campaign urging the release of cabinet discussions from the aftermath of the Hillsborough stadium disaster.
The Cabinet Office said on Wednesday it was appealing against the information commissioner's ruling that the papers should be made available.
Mr.

Have to say I liked the tone Ed Miliband took today on Radio4 (more and more he is impressing me recently), now is not the time for political point-scoring and I am wary of all the knee-jerking I am seeing since the riots began. We need to take time to listen to what places like Tottenham, Croydon and Clapham are telling is.

Tottenham's Premier League match with Everton on Saturday has been postponed because of the riots in London.

Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore said he was "positive" the other nine games in the opening round of top-flight fixtures would go ahead. And prime minister David Cameron suggested they could kick off earlier than scheduled to assist the police.

So what have we all learnt, well judging by the twitter, facebook and phone-ins we can certainly agree that people are very, very angry & shocked over what happened in the London, Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester, Salford, Bristol and West Brom. It is always a shame to see the surge of "Hang them high, birch them low" Daily Mail style knee-jerking but after what we've seen over the last week who am I to argue with them?

Here we have Cesc Fabregas, busy dodging all of Arsenal's pre-season shenanigans in order to gadabout, pow-wowing in the gardens at 10 Downing Street with his new high-falutin' friends namely Spanish prime minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero and his British counterpart, old wibble-wobble flubber cheeks himself, David Cameron.

In the last few weeks, we've been constantly made to play a game of "Where's Wally?" with Cescy Fabregas. He was nowhere to be found, said to be crying at a Nou Camp tour weeks ago, on the brink of a move to Barca and recently opted out of Arsenal's training camp in Germany.

Come fly with me Chelsea's players passed the time on their flight from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok with a spot of TV work. Salomon Kalou took over as cameraman for Chelsea TV. For some reason best known to himself, Kalou brands himself as "David Cameroon" during his interview with Fernando Torres. The presumably accidental mispronunciation [.

So Ed is going for the jugular on this News of the World scandal, a brave move given that he's the first Labour or Tory leader to disregard the consequences of a hostile News International.

Already dark forces are stirring and warning that they will make it personal for him if he makes calls for Rebekah Brooks to resign.
