Chelsea defender Ron Harris fouls (helps) Stan Bowles to his feet during a match with QPR at Stamford Bridge...always so kind to opposition attackers was our Chopper...notice the old Zephyr ball...

Here's Mickey Droy helping Chopper scrape the opposition no. 9's leg off his studs...it was said that if Chopper was in a good mood he'd put iodine on his studs...

And here's Mickey following Chopper's example...notice no ball in the frame...Bourne of Derby I think is the lucky recipient...

Eddie MaCreadie...Chelsea and Scottish full back and Chelsea manager...if you haven't read his book 'Eddie Mac...Eddie Mac' I strongly urge you to do so...it's truly fabulous...he recently returned to SB after 41 years to launch it...

Great to see Eddie Mac back at The Bridge.

At last!

Interesting that cutting lists the capacity as 45000. Just a few seasons previous there were 55000 in the ground V Fulham.

55,003.  Don't forget the three.
