It's common knowledge they are throwing this match to ready for Ajax.....the odd line-up will confuse their watching scouts....... |  | | |

They're not throwing it. They're saving players for Ajax who are unlikely to take much interest in scouting today. |  |

I hope the Premier League fine them as they did Wolves a few years back. |  | | |

Hope the Premier League fine Chelsea first for that farce with John Terry. Stopping the game at a specific time to sub him with a guard of honour? | |

It was pre-arranged, I’m assuming the ref knew. No harm done in a game which didn’t matter |  | | |

No harm, but as the reaction amongst ex pros Keown, Crooks and Kilbane illustrated, it was a bit ridiculous. | |

No, for fielding a weakened team. Whether they won or not is beside he point, Wolves got (ridiculously) fined for doing the same, why shouldn't Utd? | | | |

I take it Wolves lost then...Can't they play who they want it's the whole idea of having a squad,it only becomes a problem when other teams benefit from their weakened team IF they throw a game,United won | | | |

United won they won't get fined for playing a weakened side. Mourinho had said he was going to do so for weeks. | | | |

Good on Terry and the ref for agreeing. I really can't see what the issue is with Chelsea publically celebrating his achievements. If it had been a game with something riding on it then it couldn't have been done. There's very few players who stay with a club so long. | | | |

You can bet on the amount of throw ins that happen in ten minute breakdowns, I wonder if John Terry will have told his family and friends this was going to happen. Why can't he just be clapped off like anyone else at the end of the game. What would they have done if he played with a traditional centre backs number? |  | | |

I wonder if anyone had a bet on there being a throw-in and a sub in that minute? Glad John Terry wasn't eating a pie at the time... |  | | |

Ive been struggling to find the words to best describe my opinion of him....Until I read your post!
Spot on. | | | |

This isn’t on. Without the betting wins, I’ve no problem but this changes things. The Sutton GK got fired, there won’t be any repercussions for Terry though. | | | |

It's ok, he will soon be (already is) mugging it on tv panel shows where C list comedians gently rib him about being a belm and he either
A) Sits there and takes it (ok for a bit but wont last forever)
B) Come back with a witty response (Yeah, right)
C) Get more and more annoyed and walk off after 26 minutes
In the good old game of what would they be if they weren't a footballer, Terry is the bouncer who turns you away with a'what are you going to do about it sneer' career man. |  |

"If that's the way I want to go out, that's the way I go out because I've been here 22 years, I've won so many trophies - so if I wanted to play one minute and come off, I would have done."
Bold words for a player who will always be remembered for being racist and having an affair with a team-mate's partner far more than anything he did on the pitch. Vile person. |  | | |

Been away a few years, but having looked at the BBC link below, Garth Crooks has been eating a few. |  | | |

And so the thread goes full circle from Macro's comment on the Sutton GK (case still unresolved) to Garth Crooks ........... |  |
