A clip of Sheffield United v Bury from 1902 before we were formed. Posted as it includes William Foulkes. He can be seen at 2.05 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UkVZZnrC4E

How times have changed.

Oh dear. One mistake is bad enough but three. ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtBWefg5md0

Great punch from the ref. Can you imagine refs in this country doing something similar. http://www.expressandstar.com/picture-galleries/sport-video/2013/10/25/video-kuwait-referee-punches-and-kicks-players-after-being-attacked-for-awarding-a-penalty/

Jones 1905 and Carshalton Blue, I agree with your comments and yes, Chelsea does a lot to support our service personnel. Tickets for Troops for example. One of the greatest sights at Chelsea in recent years when the Chelse Pensioners formed the Guard of Honour in 2005. The idea of a Blue Plaque is superb. Thought it would be a good idea to invite a number of service personnel onto the park at half-time. There must be several personnel who follow Chelsea or theer Chelsea fans who have family in the forces. Rule Britannia

Not sure if this is the right place to post this thread, http://img.metro.co.uk/i/pix/2013/10/Tube%20Map.jpg A few Chelse players on the map. Suspect they'll be a bit of diving at Ronaldo's stop.

Would be great if Chelsea arranged the same for Stamford Bridge, On the same day at Ibrox 400 men and women from all branches of the armed services came on the pitch at half-time. Again, something Chelsea should arrange. Would be great for fans to show appreciation to our armed forces

Doobs has announced his retirement. Always thought he was a whole-hearted player. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24365397

Different from an after match beer. http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/relationships/randy-couple-caught-having-sex-on-danish-soccer-pitch-after-00-draw/story-fnet0gt3-1226705851339

An interesting article about Darren and what he's been through. Well done to him for winning the title. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/23780386

All Chelsea fans will be aware of the financial predicament that Rangers FC is in and that the club has been in administration since February. The latest blow is that the Scottish Football Association has put a block on Rangers signing players over 18. Talk about kicking a man whilst he's down. A petition has been setup advocating that partners of the SFA are boycotted. A lot of Chelsea fans have a lot of time for Rangers so please sign.

We were playing Liverpool - can't remember which year - and their fans thought they had scored at the MH end. Ball hit the side netting. All the scousers starting cheering. Chelsea fans started singing calm down, calm down in the fashion of the Three Scousers from the Harry Enfield Show. Priceless!

Think it might be Zola's first home game for us. Turned Julian Dicks inside out. Dicks must have ended up with twisted blood. Also remember when there was the possibility of Zola leaving. His wife persuaded him to stay. The chant went up: "There's only one Mrs. Zola."

Good point about the name, Mad_Mac. Might get a visit from Salmond and his henchmen. WATP!

Was at the game in 2007. A brilliant atmosphere. Rule Britannia and God Save the Queen were sung with great passion by both sets of fans. A Chelsea fan brought along a banner with Bangkok Loyal and the Chelsea and Rangers badges on it. Chelsea lost 2-0 but have to say that the result was irrelevant. The bond between the fans was the most important thing. We Are The People!!
