The text with the photo states “Stamford Bridge, on the Fulham Road is the best known athletic ground in the Metropolis, being the headquarters of the London Athletic Club and the scene of the amateur championship competitions whenever they take place in London. The annual Scottish Gathering is one of the most popular fixtures held here”.

This is the same Stamford Bridge that 10 years later in 1905 would become the home for the newly formed Chelsea Football Club. Additional land was purchased around the ground, but the home of the London Athletic Club since 1877 would become the core of Chelsea’s ground. Another London ground featured in the book was

Anyone who remembers the song by The Monks Nice legs shame about the face (terrible song by the way) here we have nice top shame about the shorts. 😆

I remember being off school I would guess 1975 think it was because of a caretakers strike so they put on more kids shows than normal. There was a play called Zigger Zagger I remember the kids chanting it looked for it online have never found it. There are more modern versions on Youtube but doubt the original one survived.

To this day, Guillet is the one player turning up at the bridge and thinking wow, this is a superstar

Yes Gullitt looked like an ancient Greek God with his athletic physique with so much grace on the pitch.

The first player I remember joining us was Dennis Wise in 1990, such a busy player with some skill too.
