One win in how many away games recently? What's going on?! Chelsea have failed to secure 3 points away again this weekend as they draw with Birmingham City. Drawing is just as smarting as losing and it's definitely not the outcome I was looking for this early April morning. Despite this, my boys played with intensity — except for Drogba; I mean, Didier was intense and all but he seemed to be lacking today. Could it be cos he's affected by all this negative press? Who knows. Don't get me wrong, there were good chances at goal and 2 disallowed goals cos of an off-side ruling, but still, no goals is just, no goals. If I can catch some Zzzzs, I'm going back to bed. Otherwise, I'll be mulling about the Blues in my room. O.o

Good (too-early-why-am-I-up) morning, Footy Fans. It's me, your faithful giornale poster awake and watching the Chelsea versus Birmingham City match on Fox Soccer Channel. Nay, your eyes don't deceive you; it is, in fact, 3:35AM Pacific Daylight Time. It's times like these that I attempt to remind myself that if I'm this disciplined with running, I'll be better off with my training… Oh well.

The match has not even started yet. I could've had a few more winks! It's odd cos they just had an EPL Review show, and now, as we wait for the match to start, they're having another in-show EPL review. As I post this, they're showing former-Blues player, Hasselbaink, scoring twice for 'boro in their match against Bolton last week.

Ok, more commercials… loverly. Well, I wish this were an April Fools prank, but I am really up and well, half-awake, as I wait for my beloved Blues on telly… I shall add to this post, perhaps at half-time, when I hope to be three-quarters awake.
