Coloured version of the 1965 League Cup celebrations!

They all look like they could do with a good meal!. When you see the more athletic torso's of todays players, you realise how much the game has changed over the decades.
Yet I don't recall back in the 70's for example, many players from any team being injured & missing many months or even a season, like they seem to today?.
Back then it seemed it was either a broken leg, hamstring, or cartilage injury and that was it!.

Chelsea Old Boys at the ready

Surprised to see Alec Baldwin and Dennis Waterman in there.

Could name a few in that picture. Anyone?

Lol, I can name everyone

Go on then lol because I'm struggling to name 5....

 

Well I would be surprised if anyone here got everyone because two were not footballers and one didn't play a first team game for Chelsea, lol

As follows:

left to right

Standing. Mark Westwood, Tommy Langley, Clive Walker, Colin Pates Trevor Aylott, Teddy Maybank, Paul Canoville, John Bumstead, Steve Perkins and Steve Finnieston

two above

Ray Lewington and myself

So Mark Westwood is the Old Boys Manager, Steve Perkins didn't play a first team game for us, and I am not a footballer

 

 

From left, Alec Baldwin, Tommy Langley, Clive Walker, Colin Pages, Ray Lewington, Tallmanwithpint, Ken Monkou, Dennis Waterman, Paul Canoville, and then.....Someone can take over as I'm struggling. They've aged!

Johnny B's changed. I was tempted to guess at him, but he looks different without hair.

So you're Ken Monkou?!

No I am not Ken Monkou, and Ken Monkou is not present.lol

And Jock Finnieston looks a bit different from your avatar!

I should have had a guess at Aylott and Maybank, although I thought Maybank was taller than that.

Sure looks like big Ken behind Maybank but I'll take your word for it.

 

BTW what was the occasion?

I would never have got some of those.....Jock Finneston was one of mt favourite players while he was at Chelsea....never forget the Liverpool game 

 

Enjoyed that footage above.

Cheers Jezz.

Nothing on earth is sweeter that a win against Rottenham. Cheers Jezz - made my day.

No worries mate! Happy you enjoyed it.

I would also like to quickly acknowledge @Zolablue25 for his wonderful work in colourising the image of the 1965 League Cup Final player celebrations that I posted here the other day.

Haven't seen you on here much lately. Any chance of looking at the two away games in yellow from 77/78 Ipswich and West Ham. Your link from p m doesn't work. Cheers
