'It's not f*cking over!' - Emma Hayes insists 'all work drinks are cancelled' at Chelsea in stirring WSL title rallying cry after 8-0 thrashing of Bristol City

The Chelsea boss called out to the crowd at Kingsmeadow Stadium after taking charge of her final home game for the Blues and insisted that they are still fighting for the title. Their 8-0 victory over Bristol City on Sunday took them to within three points of league leaders Manchester City. The Blues have a game-in-hand and a superior goal difference over their title rivals and have their eyes locked on the prize.

Issuing a rallying cry in her stirring final speech to the Chelsea faithful, Hayes shouted: "Let me be clear. It's not f*cking over. There's no time for sentimentality. All work drinks are cancelled. There's a title to be won. This group of players taught me something so special this week, that you never ever give up."

Hayes has been keen to ensure that her side were ready to pounce on any slip-up in the title race and made sure they seized their opportunity on Sunday. City had been 1-0 up against Arsenal until a late Stina Blackstenius brace stole all three points and gave Chelsea the motivation to put eight goals past Bristol City and improve their goal difference massively.

The Blues travel to Spurs on Wednesday night as they look to earn the three points to take them back to the top of the league. Should Chelsea win, they will go into their final game of the season against Manchester United knowing the title is theirs to lose.
