Hello Everyone,

I've just signed up here, I'm an old geezer who started supporting Chelsea during the 1970 cup run. Osgood, Bonetti and Cooke were my heroes. Then I suffered through the rest of the '70's. I actually enjoyed the '80's because I started to be a regular in the old Shed, ('81-'89). The 1990 full members cup was my last game as I moved over here in 1991.

With no internet and virtually no US coverage most of the '90's was a blackout. I got to follow again in the early 2000's just before the 'Russian Revolution'. Times since then have been a whirlwind, hardly believable for an old sufferer like me!

Anyway, enough tripe from me for now, just introducing myself, good to be here.

Tony

Hi Tony! Welcome! Osgood, Bonetti and Cooke is an era I can relate to!

And now I'm humming Georgia on my mind (Ray Charles' version), ahhhhhhhh.....

Welcome BT!

welcome to the forum blue tony, what a very mafia like name..... :angry:

Hey Tony where in GA are you? I'm just north of Atlanta myself. Welcome to the Shed. :angry:

Hello Tony old geezer. That must make me young geezer though I doubt there's much of an age difference seeing we've been through the same supporting history

I moved down to the Macon area about 4 years ago, but I have lived in Alpharetta, Marietta and Acworth.

I'll be up in the Brewhouse (Little Five Points) on Saturday for the game mate, if you're there I'll buy you one! :)

Don't give me that old bollocks, you were thinking of 'Fat Tony' from The Simpsons ;)

By the way, my mafia name is Arturo "The Grim Reaper" Anastasio - strange, I thought he played for Lazio

What will happen to CrapFoot when The Grim Reaper and The Enforcer descend upon him? ;)

No Geezer it's pistol in my pocket. ;)

And there was me thinking you were just pleased to see me.

Welcome Tony! ;)

I was expecting a reply involving descend/going down! It's so disappointing - where is Geezer when you need him!

Alright there Tony, I'm from Scotland now living in Washington State, but used to live in Augusta and was in the golf business so used to play all round Alpharetta, and that general area of the ATL!

Anyway, welcome to the boards. Hope the Brewhouse sells some good beer....mmmm, beer!
