Looking back, still amazed that game in Tromso ahead that night.

Mind you they might not have a snow free pitch until the following April !

What a goal by Zola.

Remember going crazy when he scored it.

A cracking half volley into the top corner, he'd been on the pitch literally seconds.

What a night.

Epic goal!

 

Never tire of watching that Zola goal.

What a substitution!

Love the reaction of our bench after the goal.

Another great Shed picture

Been going back through this thread and posting some pictures.

Hope nobody minds.

Today's Shot of The Day is an absolute classic:

The Chelsea team applaud their captain, Roy Bentley, as he addresses the crowd after a win over Sheffield Wednesday at Stamford Bridge, 23rd April 1955. Chelsea's victory secured them the League Championship for the first time.

The Shed's last stand. Sheffield Utd, final game of the season 1994.

Two classic pictures.

This photo was taken from the East Stand and looks out onto the crowd that invaded the pitch after the last game of the 1954/55 season, and were awaiting the result of the Man U. game to see if we'd won the League. That's an 8 year old me in the white circle.

Thanks for posting that picture above Garrison.

Picture quality isn't good but Ossie having a chat with the Ref. 

The other great striker in this picture is Denis Law.

My old mans second favourite ever Scottish player.

His favourite? Charlie Cooke.

Cooke and Law, two fine Scottish players. Two of so many great Scottish players over the years and quite a few of them played for Chelsea. A shame that Charlie only played 16 games for Scotland but I guess he would have played more for the national side if it hadn't been for the likes of Willie Henderson, Davie Wilson and Willie Johnston.

I'm sure that this picture has been posted before but no harm in posting it again.

Agreed mate.

The Bridge looks good in that photo.

Early 1980s ?

Jimmy Johnstone?

Good point. A good player. The players I mentioned all played for Rangers. Shows my bias to the blue half of Glasgow!

There was a gap of 5 years between Charlie Cookes last two Scotland caps!

He was very unfortunate not to win more.

Many far less talented Scottish players won far more caps.

My old man actually compared him to Steve Coppell of Man Utd and England.

A fair comparison?

Steve Coppell couldn't dribble. A hard working flank player but lacked the skill and finesse of the great wingers.

 

Backbiter: Cheers for the comparison of Cooke and Coppell.

God bless her. Breda was great on the specials, enjoying the singing and selling the tickets for the raffle with Johnny B and Micky Fillerys mum. Even Johns wife Janet use to travel with them. You couldn't imagine current players mums and wives  doing this! Different times.
