Posted March 16, 201411 yr Thought I'd say hello. Just joined last night. New here, but not new to being a Blues fan. Been a Chelsea supporter since I was a nipper. Was born into it as its kind of a family tradition (with the exception of two black sheep, a Gooner bro and Liverpool supporting cousin) I was there for all the disappointing mid table years and the beginning of the new golden era. My pet hates are Chris Foy, Man United, City and plastic supporters. I look forward to many quality discussions on here and hope to make a few new friends on the way.
March 19, 201411 yr Welcome on board chap! We've got somethin' in common.. being a Bristolian and growing up in a family with no football influence, it was all a bit mental with my brother being a Liverpool supporter, cousins supporting Man U & Arsenal.. other kids in the area and in school wearing shirts of those teams mentioned.. Always got the p*ss taken out of me for supporting Chelsea, but something attracted me to 'em even when I was a nipper. Such a special club & you'll meet great people on here too, knowledgeable about their football, down to Earth & a good laugh.
March 20, 201411 yr Author Thanks for the welcome. I am from South West London. Not the mental busy part though haha. I must say, I'm enjoying this board. Makes a change to have some nice friendly debates that don't finish up with silly name calling. January Blues: Nice area Bristol, have a few friends up there. Hope you weren't affected by the flooding. I hear it was pretty difficult getting about. As for being a Chelsea fan, I was lucky I guess, I grew up around many Blues supporters. It started when my brother bought me a kit when I was a kid. He took me to a lot of home games too, and a few away fixtures too. Most of my friends growing up were all Blues fans too. The piss taking was pretty intense when having kick arounds as a teenager though. So many Man U glory hunters everywhere growing up. Funny how many of those same glory hunters are now wearing Chelsea blue. Ousted a few of them on Facebook the other day when uploading some old pics I found. Many laughs were had. Interesting having a Gooner brother and scouser cousin though. Crazy banter in the family this season with such a close title race.
