1. John Terry allegedly racially abuses Anton Ferdinand
2. FA strips him of the England captaincy because of this, a decision i support
3 Capello resigns because of this
4 This makes Harry the frontrunner for the England job
5 We loose our form and a secure cl- spot
6 Chelsea hasn't really regained their form, both di Matteo and AVB has an average of 1,7 points

I think chelsea will take 4th spot, Newcastle has some though games left

The key here its that is that the FA (and I) stripped Terry for his captaincy for allegedly abusing Anton. Even if John Terry is innocent, racism pays off
The irony is complete because Harry was found innocent of tax evasion

racism is unacceptable and should not pay off, but we certainly made it look that way
 
...and booing throughout the Minute's Silence last week certainly had the desired effect for them too!

It seems the bad guy ALWAYS wins these days...
 
Having now visited Loftus Road I can almost see why Terry lost it so badly - no excuse for racism but the behaviour of QPR (the management, players, fans.....even the fucking ball boys) is despicable
 
Can I remind people that no matter how much we may hate the loathesome Mr. Terry, he has yet to be found guilty. I believe the law in England still promotes innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. With this in mind the setence "if Terry is innocent racism pays off" makes no sense to me.

I was amazed at how badly their fans behaved. I reckon the club should be oenalised if it can't control fans in their won ground.

Sorry, but I am struggling somewhat to see the connection between the racism allegations and our players going to shit?

the England job is the source of our problems, and Fabio stepped down because John Terry lost his armband. This put the pressure on Harry. You might have another explanation, but i choose this one

This is the biggest collapse i've ever seen. Since Capello stepped down we have an average of 0.9 points pr game. This will give us 34point through a season. We need a miracle to reach the cl

''With this in mind the setence "if Terry is innocent racism pays off" makes no sense to me''
- the fa acted like he was guilty, thats why i can say that. And as it looks now John Terry will reach the cl, not us. And it's the result of our collapse, more than chelsea regaining their form

I recommend the movie ''sliding doors'', it might shed some light on what i'm trying to say here

I'm no stranger to bantering it out with other fans, not least Chelsea, but if pulled this out it would be out of sheer desperation.
