Zola Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) We won our first title on this day, 60 years ago. Back then our attendances were over 48,000 - the largest in England at the time. http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2015/04/it-was-60-years-ago-today.html? But we've no history, right?

Englishman Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 ^ 75,000 (!) turned up for the title decider against Wolves. And this back in the days when we had no fans. Meanwhile Arsenal finished 9th and Spurs 16th Liverpool finished 11th. In Division 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PloKoon13 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I was always proud reading about this as a kid as at the time the idea of Chelsea winning the title seemed almost unthinkable. Even winning the FA Cup and finishing 4th was pretty mind-blowing. I am glad I grew up in a time when expectations were lower (and even then it's not as if we were anywhere near as bad as we were in the 80s) as it makes me fully appreciate how good we are now. Are there any Shed Enders who were actually there to see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
