Never been to eastville so Thanks for that fella ,reason why i opted for shrewsbury was because of the yellow crowd Control barriers and shrewsbury play in blue/yellow but that still did not sit right with me via memorys of been at shrewsburys old ground .

I recall a stag do for geordie Knights in Magaluf years and years ago  ( why did he Get the prefix geordie  as he was never from that neck of the Woods ). One flight went from luton with 35+ on it and was on the stanstead to Magaluf flight with 20+ on it .

we was all booked into the same hotel which was in Araenal ( spell check ) ,this was the german part of the Island and across the bay 

from Magaluf . Our flight was meet by a coach and dropped us all off at the hotel and the sight of 20+ english chelsea lads all checking in 

to the hotel made all the germans look feal nervous > within the hour we had all checked in threw our bags into our rooms and was down in the hotel reception all having a drink > you could see that all of the germans of families ,lads ,boyfriends/girlfriends thought they was passing throu that star warn bar if you Get my jist > 20+ horribles all on the drink by 13.00 that day > you shoukd have clocked their faces of pure panic when the 2 nd coach of 35+ chelsea horribles was unloading outside > we was not been horrible in our book just a mob of lads all on the drink and the banter and laughing that came with that .

We all stayed local on friday night ,but we was all up and out on the lash again on saturday morning by 11  bells ,all the germans looked 

in pure shock > the plan this day was all of us to drink where ever in the local area untill 18:00 - 19:00 and we had to be back at the hotel for the fleet of untold taxis pre booked to take us all to Magaluf . We all went out in various groups and headed back to our hotel for the taxis .

This is where i noticed the difference between the english and german drinking cultures > i was with 2 other chelsea and one of the  was out of his tree and we had to throw him in a super market trolley to wheel him back > as we wheeled lado by front of hotel all the chelsea lads were pissing them sens ,whilst all across the hotel ballconys you could no end of german males with irons out fixing their shirts for their night out ,and they all stopped open mouthed and Even taking photos . 
 

This is when cathy walked by on her own if memory is correct > i could not Work it out since this was a stag do and cathy turned up on her own ,but it told me that she was more chelsea than all of us on that stag do in my book .

cant recall this lads name but he was so pissed he had fallen over in one of the bars near the hotel and his face ,nose was in a reet mess and he got a early flight back to blighty . 
 

all i recall from the nite in Magaluf was getting a bucket full of vodka and red bull after making it me sen after bar owner gave me if after i somehow got everyone into his bar > then after that at about 01:00 in the morning we was in that eastenders bar and every chelsea lad was in a reet tangle with them sens > there was lads stood up sleeping ,stark bollockkk naked ,and there was about 30+ of us in the pub then .The doormen would not come near us i was told .

funny thing was that at breakfast in the morning no end of lads jumped into a taxi on their own at various times to Get back to the hotel 

and not the normall case of 2,3 or 4 in a taxi due to how pissed everyone was .

 

like i said cathy ended up walking by our hotel on the saturday the day after we all arrived ,maybe somebody on hete who knows more 

about cathy can explain > this will lead me to another far more funny one about cathy at the CSKA moscow v chelsea game when we could 

not Get inside the ground .

Now I'm not gonna lie, it's nothing to do with Chelsea, and it's not vintage, but I'm sitting here watching the football league highlights on Quest and when Fleetwood Town score a goal they play the Captain Pugwash theme. It tickled me, and Fleetwood scored 4 today, great stuff.

Not as good as the Rhubarb and Custard theme 😁. Off topic as well why are there still stadium announcers in grounds for whose benefit is saying coming on for Chelsea is no 9 etc the handful of St John's Ambulance staff ?.

Yes, very different from nowadays.  I went to the training ground at Cobham a few years ago and the first team was there. Some very luxurious cars in the car park e.g. Bentleys, Ferraris etc.

I see that Mickey has good taste in music.
