Champions League Draw and Fixtures
Corrupt UEFA
By Since66

The rawness of last season's corrupt semi-final against Barcelona is still simmering. Although I knew the 2009/10 Champions League draw was today, the event wasn't really on my list of high priorities, I had bigger fish to fry. I do wonder though if JT's UEFA Defender of the Year award was a UEFA 'token' of 'yeah you were screwed, but really we don't give a F**K!?!?!
The above comments relating to JTs award do seem unfair, bearing in mind he has won the award on two previous occasions, however you still can't help thinking and the cynic nature within me, despite JT saying upon his acceptance of his award:
"What I try to do is come in to training and work very hard every day and not to be able to get my hands on the Champions League trophy, that is enough motivation for me. That is something I am aiming to do with Chelsea," that UEFA simply HATE and DESPISE Chelsea.
At this moment in time I HATE and DESPISE UEFA. I hate what UEFA stands for and I hate 'smug snail face ' Platini.
Rant over.
I wish Chelsea Football Club all the best for the forthcoming Champions League campaign and after glossing over the draw, the draw could have been much much worse and no matter how low Chelsea set their tickets prices, I will not be lining any UEFA 'suits' satin pockets for this season at least!!!
