Pre match nerves about now, no matter who we play... Come on Chelsea !

Yeah agreed,certainly doesn't feel like 35 years ago !

I seem to remember adidas zx500 trainers and Nike Wimbledon tennis shoes (White with blue swoosh) being popular in 1984-86.

After the last home game of that season ?! Beating Barnsley 3-1 on May Bank Holiday, 7th May 84.

We are three points behind Sheffield Wednesday.

Everton 4-0 Man Utd ! No way I would have predicted that score yesterday. With Palace beating Arsenal, it's vital we win v Burnley tonight.

So did ! 'Saint and Greavsie'. Lunch time football show on ITV on a Saturday 12.30. Mid 1980s, replacing 'On The Ball' with Brian Moore. This had been the ITV football programme preview slot on 'World of Sport'.

This will be a difficult game for us. Game Day. Come on Chelsea !

A 1-0 win over Newcastle Utd back in Dec 1970. 18 mins of highlights.

I'd say there were books on the Second World War available to him when he was growing up... He could have even watched a documentary on tv about it.

Come on Chelsea !

The Shed in all it's glory.

Agreed. Gutted after we lost that game.

Chelsea 3-0 Shrewsbury Town Saturday, 21st April 1984 at 15:00 Our scorers' 'King' Kerry Dixon in the 6th and 87th minutes. Pat Nevin in the 32nd minute. Nigel Spackman missed a penalty. Watched by 17,295 spectators. Still 2nd in Div 2. Next up it's Portsmouth away, on Tues 24th April 1984 at 19:30

For Tambling, there is special significance in being honoured at the Shed End of the ground… ‘People used to ask which end we preferred to play towards and it was always the Shed, it was the one all the players preferred.' The roar from the fans who were in there, it made a big difference to the lads in my day, they could lift you when things weren’t quite going your way.’ Great quote from Bobby.
