That Chelsea v Wolves game from April 1977 finished 1-1. We had beaten them 3-1 in December 77. Both sides being promoted in 1976/77. The other side,promoted in third place did rather well in 77/78. Nottingham Forest who amazingly ,still,won the title. We beat them 1-0 at The Bridge in Nov 77.

When I see those old pictures of the bridge, for me it brings back memories of the 1980's and jonny Neal's team, happy days!

Great pictures. 

Did a double take at first at the bottom one, seeing the horse in the goal mouth !

Yes September 1905 the beginning of the Club's existence. The stands look like they're still under construction judging by the rubble in the foreground. If any Chelsea archivists want to buy the page it's the second photo here;  here http://www.old-print.com/cgi-bin/item/D5011905433R/search/9-Print-1905-Photo-York-Minster-Lendal-Bridge-Football-London-433Rd501-Old-Original

I've had that song in my head, since I saw this post...

Very rare kit only worn twice, was introduced for the 72 League cup final but never worn, it was used at away games v Forest & Spurs in 72 & never seen again

I usually hate red football kits and teams that wear them, stick a lion rampant and a star either side with CFC underneath and it looks rather cool!!!
