Are pigs flying? Chelsea loses!

Recently, someone at work used Jose Mourinho as an example of effective, unorthodox, modern-thinking management, an anathema to buck-pushing, credit-grabbing bureaucrats. I have to admit that he had a point. From a purely strategic point of view, Mourinho's approach to management is brilliant.

That said, I am still celebrating Charlton's excellent win over Chelsea in the League Cup last night.

What a week for Chelsea; they drop their first Premiership points to the bottom club and then suffer their first defeat of the season four days later. Who would have thought this as recently as Sunday morning? No wonder people equate football to religion. Like deities, football works in mysterious ways.

Heh, Liverpool is now in good company among teams that have been eliminated from the League Cup.
