I love the noise in Mathew Harding lower , but love the sitting down and view in the west lower. I'm 56 and walked from Earl’s Court against West Ham then stood in mhl , then walked to South Kensington after. Fulham Broadway closed again . Knew it was going to be a good game when I shook hands with Ron Harris just outside the mhl. i haven’t bought a programme for years but did buy a pint of Guinness for £7.50 but that was after talking to chopper for a few a while and I was as thrilled as I was when I was 10 years old. My daughter went to megastore after but I rarely buy stuff these days. i said to my daughter that I wasn’t going to give the owners my money in the megastore but she went in while I had a smoke , she heard my advice and totally ignored me and spent about £100 . She also bought the programme . I’d paid for both tickets , my daughter is 26 or 27 ish.

If we beat forest Saturday we might not have many injured players all of a sudden they’re recovering

I’ve also noticed that the restricted view seats east upper are empty . ive bought these tickets before for £22 . seems to me only tickets club are selling is £120 on general sale , so the working person is priced out again . big worry if season tickets go up - my work could stop buying west lower and my mates stop mathew Harding lower - and I’m out of tickets

I’m in a season ticket club at work , apply for every game and hope lucky in the draw. these season tickets are for west lower , had about 7 games this season through this. also have 4 mates with season tickets in mathew Harding lower and often one of them can’t go so I pick up another 3 or 4 games . I really think if fans don’t renew season tickets blue-co will make another tourist area , match ticket pie and pint - £130 behind the goal noise zone club - blue co - bunch of w- - - - - -

I don’t think we can afford to pay poch to go but when I think about Jose at his best - he had Steve Clarke behind him. and Luca had ray wilkins. id like to see John Terry put alongside poch Terry loves Chelsea and I question if the present management do.

I like west lower these days , save my legs ready for the walk to Earl’s Court . Last 2 games Fulham Broadway closed. just given my daughters tickets for Thursday night in mhl - they love the standing . I’m almost regretting my generosity but they are family.

Mate me being 11 at the time , after the matches we got the tube to Victoria and West Ham used to be waiting . They used to ask me the Chelsea result as luckily I was just a kid. used to be a lot of Chelsea on the Victoria to Canterbury train. Scariest thing happened to me was against Preston and they didn’t close the metal gate at Fulham Broadway , crowd surged and I saw the train coming , thank you so much whoever dragged me back onto the platform.

My first games in 1979 , dad used to leave me autograph hunting while he went to the pub. players used to give me tickets for east lower , dad was happy , I was gutted I wanted to stand on the shed.

Surprised the clubs haven’t asked for longer half times to increase the rip off opportunities. i don’t expect you could pay the bar staff any less legally in the west lower but they so slow to serve. thing is and I think it’s an age thing after the cobra , marler estates , Ken bates era but I’m pleased with the cpo situation. also read somewhere about the steep rake in east upper probably wouldn’t be allowed these days , so could be difficult to increase capacity. tbh I really want to stay at the bridge , something about the whole journey to the game.

I’ve got west lower against Burnley and it’s the same tbh que up for a drink and you could miss Minuits of second half. Will stay in my seat and go for a drink next day . £66 a seat Saturday , don’t want to miss any of the game.

East upper just hasn’t got it , if you want a drink at half time , you got to leave and miss vital Minuit of first half and get back missing few minuets of second half . Great view but catering way behind times. went to spurs away had 2 pints and toilets - didn’t miss a Minuit and I play to the whistle.

Only spotted one of these stickers last Sunday. it was on the wall in the toilette at Fulham Broadway.

West lower season ticket works out roughly £66 per match and mathew Harding lower £50. fa cup the other day mhl £38 purchased through season ticket.

They might be happy if season tickets are not renewed , as then they have more tickets to sell at inflated prices to tourists etc who spend more in club shop and as it’s a one off day out , on food and drink in the stadium. anyone giving up season ticket could offer for sale on here and maybe a group of people could buy it. season ticket is the cheapest per game price.

Poch may be just doing as he’s told by the owners maybe with our owners , the voice of the fans could be vital. ticket price increase is a major worry for me.

Thanks for reply mod , will dig some stuff out for vintage page. dont want poch out just a few improvements lol

I’ve been reading information on the forum for years but have just joined - first posts ever live near Canterbury kent im at work now on the crossing from uk to france not sure where Scotland came from! I will have to get over being called a troll and an idiot!

Firstly I didn’t boo yesterday , I shouted a lot things like “ let palmer take the penalty” and pass , “ and no don’t take the free kick “ and my opinion although Raheem sterling is a great player he should of been subbed at half time , although the cross for palmers goal was good. then Mudryk being subbed was a complete surprise. i would like to see poch shouting a few more instructions to the team from pitch side i don’t want to offend anyone , we will all have different opinions.

First time I’ve been on here been going to the bridge since 1979 with my dad chelsea 1 wolves 2 relegated sold ray wilkins what do you mean by troll

And sterling hasn’t cared about us or this team not passing , being greedy he’s cared about himself the money he’s on , he should be leading the team if poch has spoke to him , sterling hasn’t listened yesterday he heard that and deserved it sterling should be on the bench for a couple of games now

I was at the game yesterday and vented my frustration number 1 - the team should know before the game who’s taking the pens and free kicks number 2 - I’m not against poch or sterling , but poch should have had a word with sterling months a go it’s been left to the fans to conduct the in game management and since we’ve been screaming we’ve won 3 games and drawn one . bad substitutions - will be called out We should have shouted at Sanchez when he went for a walk !
