Of all the teams we could have faced, it had to be Blackburn away. There is something about playing them away that i hate- maybe its the fear of an injury or 2- or maybe the fear of them sneaking a cheeky late winner.

i know middlesborough have been a bogey team of late, but for me Blackburn away is the most dreaded fixture of the season.

come on chelsea!

I hate that evil place Ewood Park; I don't want to mention this but a few players playing in there have suffered from broken foot or leg (Jamie Carragher, Djibril Cisse and Arjen Robben). I only wish our lads come back to civilized London in one piece!
