What I've learned over the past few days learning about the Vietnam war is that war is terrible to say the least for everyone and not only causes immediate damage but long lasting damage. All those involved in all conflicts should lay down their weapons and make peace. Utopia I
Eloquently put. What a game
What a strange game we play.
Four hours plus, across four to six miles of land. Chasing a tiny ball we don't want to touch very often.
We spend thousands on clubs, balls, bags, head covers. We do it with our best friends, sons, brothers, wives and daughters. We do it in crazy weather. Wind, rain, extreme heat.
Everything about the game is difficult.
One good shot in 80 or 90 is enough to keep us coming back.
The harder and more beautiful the scenery, the more we seem to like it.
Nothing about it should work.
But my word, what a beautiful game.
It's the only one in the world where we can play the same place as the best in the world.
Carnoustie. St Andrews. Pine Valley. Augusta. Turnberry. Lahinch. Pebble.
We will put all our effort into a game that's literally impossible to master.
But it's about the moments.
The birdie in the middle of a run of double bogeys.
Watching your dad hole out a 40 footer for eagle and still shoot 90.
The hilarious moment on the tee when your scratch friend hits it 59 yards off the tee. Your best friend taking 5 to get out of a bunker.
The one shot you hit pure all month.
Golf is more than a game.
It's the moments of greatness where you hit a shot Tiger would be proud of. The time spent with friends and family. The past glories that you tell for a lifetime.
Nothing about the game makes sense.
Yet we all love it, we yearn for it, and when we're in it we can hate it.
It's the hardest most simple game in the world.

Quite simply, he’s the greatest owner any football club has ever had

Remembering Matthew Harding, who tragically died 30 years ago today. His passion for Chelsea helped shape the club we know and love today.
Always loved.
Never forgotten.

So this week we find out a Muslim isis terrorist who cut the head off ken bigley is living in a bail hostel in Windsor, and our foreign Office won't deport him because he might get tortured or killed.
A Muslim paediatrician who came up with a Palestine poppy also wrote children's books on the best ways to stone women.
What the fucking hell is going on in this country.
WTAF is this. The UK infrastructure couldn’t deal with the population as it was in 2000. Since then the population growth has been crazy in these terms. No wonder we are in such a state

You're worrying about the wrong E1, mate.
Do you mean Whitechapel Road? That place resembles Dhaka more than London.
Also anyone at @ChelseaFC could you sort out the entrance to the east stand. The searches are a joke, just clog up the entrance. Not only is this surely a h&s issue, but despite allowing plenty of time to get in, there are always long and slow queues. Thanks in advanc
