AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!! I live on the pacific coast and subscribe to Sentanta, Fox Sports, and Gol TV so I never miss a match in any comps (some I cant see live no matter how hard I try). My GF hates that I show more commitment to the Blues than her. It probably didnt help when I took down her family portrait in the living room to put up a Chelsea flag.

Life long Chelsea fan despite being born and breed in Canada (moms from Cheam Surrey), if you dont belive me I got sweaters that are smaller than my head to prove it!

Only seen a live match at the Bridge once, hoping I can change that in the future (come on lottery!). Season ticket holder of my local team, Vancouver Whitecaps, even though they sold my club favourite, Marcus Haber(local kid) to West Albion a few weeks ago. I had a girl who sat behind me one match claim to be a massive Chelsea fan. I asked he if she thought Lamps is the greatest blues ever, and she asked me if I was joking "How could a lighting fixture be the best player"....that sadly, is the quite typical of most football conversations I have out here, which is why I am here.

(for god sakes, they still call a sport where you throw the ball football)

Anyways, you'll probably see a lot of me. I will admit, Im not super knowledgeable about all of Chelseas history. I'm only 26 and live in a nonfootball market, so my knowledge is mainly related to club history within my lifetime.

Cheers

Right there with you! however, I live down in Washington. From the UK, but it does make it tough to get back to the Bridge.

If you can't get any games on your subscriptions (btw ESPN2 in the states has started showing the early Saturday Premiership Games if you get that in Canada!) then you should come on here and join the Shoutbox on match days, usually someone will have sourced a stream of the game.

All the best. I'm looking forward to the Timbers Joining the MLS soon as there is a great support for Football in the PNW and BC
