Could someone please tell Joey Jones he has to put his socks on before his football boots !

Proper away strip and proper tracksuit.

I could have a guess at what season this picture was taken during...

Yes, proper kit. Photo taken in March 1984 prior to the away game at Newcastle.

The infamous Chelsea shed being used as a baby and toddler club on non match days, and the club shop looking like an old fashioned sex shop!!! How times have changed

JJ looks he’s got a hermit crabb for a foot.

That club shop reminds me of the pub just across the road called the Cross-Eyed Newt that I would frequent between 1-2.45pm on a Saturday afternoon for about 5 years.

Away to Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup in January, 1986. Two things I remember most about this game were that it was bloody cold and there was a snowball fight between the fans and players in the warm-up.

Great day out. We got there early and in a pub soon after it opened. Landlord had a guy on the door and he was saying how only locals in. Loads of Chels slipping in in ones and twos.

Got to ground just before gates opened and cops were saying might be called off when the special pulled in. Too late so game went ahead.

Seem to remember Speedie was main player exchanging snowballs with fans.

 

and that bloke with the coracle walking across pitch before kick off to get balls out of the river..

Ah, the sports drinks being the team rehydrated on during that season !

I downloaded these a while ago and forget about them if me or other members have posted them before apologies. Peter Borota looks like he's wearing a busby.

I think it is. If at the start of the season 71-72 it would have been just before he moved to Millwall.

When goalkeepers had proper shirts worn by Borota.
