Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere (didn't see it, but I don't read every post in every thread) but Fox Sports World is offering free airfare and tickets to the match against Spurs in March, along with some other goodies in conjunction with the Centenary (accomodation at the Chelsea hotel, attendance at the Centenary dinner). It's a 250 word essay on why you are Chelsea's most ardent supporter. I am going to enter, but after thinking about it, I have to admit that in reality I think some of you are more ardent than me. If I can't win, I'd at least like one of you to so I can read about how the trip was. Come on, seriously, who out there is more ardent than the people who waste all day posting on this forum? (Well, maybe those going to every game, but then they don't need airfare and tickets, do they--and we do!) Who's going to enter?

A friend of mine called me yesterday to find out if I'd already done this. I would want to win but damn I can't write for $hit.
I'm working on my essay right now. :cool:

I'll be in London next Tuesday, so can't in good conscience submit my own name.

I've seen you post a lot obviously and you are a great writer, so...ummmm...well, how would you like to increase your level of altruism?:D
P.S. i will definitely do this and i will definitely not win.

there's only so much you can write in 250 words, so i think it benefits the new fans more than the old ones.

I really did not realize how little 250 words could be.

Nah, I'll have a lash, but honestly, I think no matter what I say, they'll have the feeling of..."Well, thats to be expected of him, he's English and grew up with them, what we're really looking for, is something different"
Have a lash lass.
(but don't mention you were just there ;))

i will tell them all of your names and that you have all been to the Bridge. Time to blackmail BS members. [evil laugh]

I think I will keep on writing - and hope that photographic evidence might be able to persuade them as well. :D
I do have the whole "being a woman" thing going for me - I can't imagine they'll get many entries from my gender. ;)

Go ahead and try. Two points:
1. You out me as having gone to the Bridge I will out you as a guy.
and
2. Again, the photographic evidence is on *my* side.
:D
