Would loved to have experienced our original east stand.

 

 

In the seats there for my first ever game, Stoke 17/3/70

Stamford Bridge 1950, nice to see our infamous weather vane on show.

 

Guy wearing the goggles reminds me of someone!!!!!!

the days where baggy footnall shirts were the on field fashion was my big eera when i also played football, but thats partly to do with the fact that these tight shirts they have nowadays just dont fit me/look very attractive

I have just been through this whole thread over the last 3 or 4 weeks.

Its not just the best thread on the site, its not just the best thread on any forum, its possibly the best thing on the internet full stop.

 

I started going in the late 80's and have seen several pics of games I was actually at, and even more great stories, pics and vids of such great crowd shots and atmospheres from years long before I started going.

 

Well done to all the contributors to this epic thread.

 

At 223 pages I think "Epic" is fair comment.

I just beat you to it. Sat in the old East stand only once, when I was six, for the 5-2 defeat by Leeds in Jan 1970. Went with my granddad, who was worried I was going to get crushed in the crowds leaviing the Shed end after the match.

Somewhere up North End Road if I remember correctly.

The bloke behind him on the right looks like something out of Star Trek.
