That away match against QPR...duries goal...chelsea boys coming onto the pitch...taking the piss at how the rangers fans celebrated earlier :laugh2:

niedzwiecki,clarke,dorigo,hazard,nevin,k wilson,durie,dixon....we had some really good players in that side

What was the original estimate of the new East Stand ? I have in my mind as £2.5m ?!

 

Might be totally wrong

 

That additional £1.5m was an unbelievably extra high cost back then. Still is a fortune to me today !

Pitch invasion, 1959 style...

That was absolutely CHELSEA ERE CHELSEA THERE at Highbury that day.........5 star turnout all around the gaff

Does anyone else remember that the clock end was rammed before the first person appeared on the north bank and we let out a massive cheer taking the p*ss!

Must have been a great view down at the North bank at how packed it was in our end. Still think the attendance was more then advertised.

Tax dodges plus turnstile operators taking cash and keeping the peddle down so the counter on the turnstile didn't increase. Happened everywhere.

Top left ( the open bit of the north bank ) seemed to be all Chelsea and there were loads in the stand to the left as well, great day out after years in the wilderness.

Anyone remember the night game a few seasons later (tony godden in goal), that was so sedate by comparison

Brilliant pictures and links on this site.

Can anyone tell me how to post pictures via a hudl device ?....cheers

I got the top picture as my screen saver on my phone , We  were every where  that morning and to think it was 11:30 kick off . And what a great sight of us in the Northbank .

Love that royal blue kit, the shirts are too light these days, see JT in the avatar

^ Hard to disagree with you there mate but overall I don't mind both of them to be honest! The lightest ones I can remember was in the late 1990s when Gullit and Vialli was coaching us so the one you see in my avatar with JT isn't the lightest blue we've worn and frankly I actually preferred that kit from 2013-2014 to the one we wore this season.

Either this game, or the year before had a gate of.....70,000 !

Bollox, we all know that we had no support until 2003.

Haha, yes, what was I thinking ?

In fact this might be the game that attracted a paltry 63,000 or so.

Looks like a bunch of spivs and touts hanging around on the corner there. Great pictures of the days when we had no fans.
