BlueBeard Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Hutch was one of my all-time favourite Chelsea players, a great striker and brave as f*ck. I'm sure he'll be enjoying a pint with Ossie while he watches the match today - RIP Hutch, Chelsea legend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loz Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I said a similar thing in the Blackpool match thread. As did this lad on 606 From PloKoon13 on 606: "Can we get a mention for the late, great Ian Hutchinson, who died eight years ago today? He was a legend of a striker, who played for Chelsea, winning the FA Cup and Cup Winners' Cup before having his career and life tragically ended prematurely. RIP Hutch - what a legend."

Hutch Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 never mind your Rory Delaps, Ian Hutchinson was the original and the greatest long throw expert. here's his most famous throw-in, the one that led to Dave Webb's winner in the 1970 FA Cup Final replay: and here he is again, this time as a goalscorer, scoring two of the goals (Ossie getting the other one) in the 3-0 win over Birmingham in the 1969-70 FA Cup run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yl9bwiRn6rE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluevale2 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I consider myself really fortunate to have seen Ian play. A true Chelsea legend and, as Bluebeard says, a very courageous player. RIP Hutch and thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plavi26 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Always sad news to see a legend go, although I never had to chance to see him play! But the videos are reminder that Chelseas greatness don't only come from the money Roman poured in and the newer generation. On the side note, Hutch, who was taking that throw in the video you posted, the one against Leeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
