@txmwa @FabrizioRomano Hmm. I suspect the huge attraction to Madrid is he’s on a free. They love a free transfer. But we’ll see

Very sad news. Bobby was a lovely bloke and a true Blue

[The History of Chelsea FC ⭐⭐ @stamford_bridge]

Very Sad to hear that Chelsea's all-time 2nd highest goalscorer, Bobby Tambling has passed away aged 84.

Bobby made made 370 appearances, scoring 202 goals for the blues between 1959-1970

RIP Bobby

@txmwa @FabrizioRomano I’m ambivalent on this, just relaying what Liverpool fans think of him. I presume they have a reason to think like this

[Robert Rea @robertrea]

@txmwa @FabrizioRomano Unlikely as they think Konate was rubbish

[Robert Rea @robertrea]

@CodyBearCox @Acyn Whether they like it or not?

@5Pillarsuk Good. More power to his elbow

@christopherhope @GBNEWS What a load of old shit. The BBC has done very little other than talk about immigration and Brexit for the last decade

@maggs10 @OllieHolt22 I don’t think it’s disregard or disrespect, just an acknowledgment of reality. That reality can be changed of course - the owners of my club, for example, are doing all they can to ensure we exit the Big Five pretty rapidly

@maggs10 @OllieHolt22 They’re not in what most people would regard as the big five of the last 20 years, and because of this I think people are happier for them to succeed in Europe.

@ChelseaCes @adamparsons My comment was one reflecting on Trump rather than on Israel

[Robert Rea @robertrea]

@paddyjim @OllieHolt22 I think you’re right. It’s a natural antipathy to your closest rivals that drives it. And it actually makes sense too - the better your rivals do, the more well-equipped they are likely to become

@AJEnglish In other words: he cares really, really deeply

@ChelseaFCW Could we just not?

@declanstar1 2 European Cups?

[Robert Rea @robertrea]

@MidwestRide @FPWellman @WhiteHouse None. Biden wasn’t president. Trump was. The only regime at the time was his.

@NiceGuyKenny They’re Arsenal par excellence, though. Public displays of club merchandise-inspired synthetic passion.

@vnbateman @FlickRea @NewJournal Thank you, that’s so kind of you

[Robert Rea @robertrea]

Many many thanks to all the people who’ve offered their sympathy and support following my mum @FlickRea’s death earlier today. It’s gratifying to know how much affection she was held in. I wrote this for the Camden @NewJournal as a tribute to her

@MichaelMcI92861 @dmcbfs Oops. I should have read the original tweet closer. My bad
