Which conflict

I remember being outside the Globe pub near Baker Street Underground station a few years ago and a guy in an open-top car pulled up at the traffic lights near the pub. He said something derogatory about Chelsea and his car was then pelted with sticks of celery. The lady he was with wasn't happy and I think she had a go at him for having a go at Chelsea. The lesson he probably learned was that if you are going to criticise a team do it just before the lights turn green.
Lol that will teach him. This has been posted on here before but this is one of my all time favourite Chelsea photos:

Funny that you mention the Green Man. For the Spurs semi final a few years back and the Arsenal cup final the Green Man had crates of celery in the pub on standby
Was in there for both games, didn't notice that, mind you celery seemed to be everywhere, for the saints semi and Utd final the other year, the bouncers at the torch searched you and took celery away, saying you couldn't bring food into the pub, they then put it in pile by the wall, half an hour later using a distraction operation with a mate, we nicked the celery back, wouldn't mind if I was  a 15 year old Herbert, but I'm 50 years old!!!

 
Yep I was there too and thought exactly the same feeling that we would lose the replay.

Of course we won yet what followed was the shambles against Wednesday and I went up there too.
Was at those three games too, think we were in the same car up to Sheffield. We were awful in both games, Townsend who had been so good V Spurs who had been so good V spurs was invisible. At home

Spot on. We lost Dixon and Colin Lee in the first half and were only allowed one sub in those days. Played the rest of the game with 10 men and still managed to push Liverpool to the end. I remember being very proud of our performance that day even though we lost. You could argue we had 9 men for most of the match as Keith Dublin was playing left back ?


Not a good day. Despite all the optimism, you could sense the deflation in the ground as soon as King Kerry got injured and had to go off. We were always up against it from then on. At least Speedo scored to make it look respectable. 

Anyone remember the Dippers letting off a big red flare into the Benches that day? Absolute twunts!!

 
Funny how threads can take different paths/ roads ,here we have a thread about desert Strøm and a cfc league cup game and by end of thread the ICF have raised its head .

Remember I use to have a tee shirt late 80's, had a picture of celery on it then said Chelsea ICF inter celery firm, I wore it to Spurs away August 87 when we lost 1-0 in last 5 minutes to a Nico Classen goal,  rare Eddie mistake, (we had some support that day!!!), Not sure I would fit in it or wear it this coming Sunday when I visit Spurs.

I went on holiday to shagaluff with a handfull of donny whites and I had 3 ICF cellary t shirts which I got with purpose to set 

the dirty Leeds Leeds Leeds donnywhites .

cant recall the full ins/outs since it was back in the 89s ,but I won a bet with them all and the forfit was three of them
had to deem the ICF t shirts  for one night .They all took the punishment and I took snap shots which I have kept at my pleasure 

to this day. 
 

on the FV front two of them was quite active lads with dirty Leeds .

 
When did the celery thing start? - 82 along with OMWTM probably. Was it a Greenaway creation?

They we’re both so daft it was brilliant. In terms of fan power, funny songs and not giving a f**k I really think we were the best in the country.

Leeds funnily enough I thought probably came closest.

It always made me chuckle to me sen that whenever we was at Elland road ,the whole home end would chant ‘ champions of Europe champions of Europe champions of Europe ‘ 

First time I heard it at Leeds Leeds Leeds when I got home I had to check if dirty Leeds did ever win the European cup ,and did they f**k like and I could not quite grasp why 30 odd thousands of facking Leeds norvern monkeys thought/sang different ?
 

i guess it was a piss take to when they lost a game to a bad ref in a European game back in the early 1970s .

the Leeds  Leeds Leeds wave always cracked me up aswell ,whenever Leeds got a corner the whole ground would chant Leeds Leeds Leeds while doing a arm pump type of wave against their chest .This brought me too when I was on holiday in Spain in 1990s. and I had a Yorkshire crest t shirt on while waiting to cross the road .

on t’other side of road was a family of mongers with no club description until that dad clocked me t shirt and did the secret Leeds Leeds Leeds wave towards us ,he looked a tad miffed when I did not Leeds Leeds Leeds wave him back in acceptance .

strange bread that dirty Leeds lot ,must be sum’ert in the tea I guess
