Could Mourinho be bound for Old Trafford?

WE HAD an excellent turnout at Wigan on Saturday — cheap match ticket and subsidised travel meant that nearly 5,000 could watch Chelsea away for £15 cheaper than a match ticket would cost you at Stamford Bridge.

We were also rewarded with a win, which of course is always welcome and when Belletti struck the second, and what must be goal of the season, we sat back and awaited the avalanche of goals.

They didn’t come and the remaining hour or so can be best described at “effective.” But it’s difficult to play pretty football with third-rate opponents crashing through the back of you every 10 minutes — especially when you are getting little to no protection from the referee (again).
