@ajay999999 Alan Birchenall was sold to Crystal Palace halfway during this season for £100.000 (millions in today's money), he made his name at Sheffield United and Leicester City.
But anyway.. going back to FOOTBALL. I was at this game. It was the beginning of what was a highly successful season for the Blues, finishing third behind Everton and Leeds, and beating Leeds in the FA Cup final replay at O. Trafford. At one point in the season it really looked as though Leeds would walk away with everything, even the Euro competition, but they got nowt. How we laughed.
@arbutus27 If you were at this game, you like me, had the honour of seeing the greatest era of English football, you saw the real great players, Best, Cook, Hunt, Lee, Bell, Hurst, Greaves, Kidd, Charlton, to name a few. These really were the best years in football, the only thing I'm glad is gone, is those shorts haha
Look at this video & visualise what would happen today. The players would be rolling all over the floor at the slightest touch, the ref giving freekicks for next to nothing. When did it stop being a man's game?
@doesitreallyeah Your post was nothing less than a grammatically-challenged weenie talking tough behind his computer. LOL What's next, the Pope is a Catholic and Chelsea are the reigning champions? Hurts, don't it?
What hurts? Certainly not your feeble retorts.by stating the obvious,you're acknowledging a mistype on my part,so your original response doesn't mean shit now.
I'll tell you what does hurt though....my cock in your mums vagina.Your old man never could please that slag like I could.
@doesitreallyeah Poor little weenie. Such anger at the world and too dumb to realize how dumb he looks spewing those silly mother insults. Methinks unresolved personal traumas abound. Does he have a mum, or did he have a mum, or does he just wish he had a mum? Poor chap can't even admit to his own team. One wonders why.
"poor little weenie" - was that your mums pet name for your dads cock? Lol
These "silly little mother insults" are clealy having their affect as you're still conversing.I bet your boiling up inside reading every one of them.Gutless coward.
When did you start supporting chelsea,cocksucker? Didn't happen to be during the time some Russian Geezer lost a bet with his mates and picked up that farce of a club was it?
Gutless coward, eh? Says the teenage virgin internet warrior hurling generic lavatory wall insults. Now we know where your upbringing took place. And why you have that weird obsession with male genitalia. Methinks latent homosexuality.
Have you ever had a girlfriend? A fight? Ever? I bet you've never even been to a football match. Much easier for a weenie to act tough from the safety of his keyboard than be a real man. Let's face it, you don't even have the guts to reveal your own team! LOL
Never does take you long to respond to my comments does it? Well,course it wouldn't,you practically live on the fucking internet you sad cunt! Still living with your dead mothers corpse while your old man got his hands down his pants while watching the kids across the road.What a sad fucking family you have LOL.
In response to your two questions,yes,I have.Your mother wasn't the first,and she definitely wasn't the last,lol
@doesitreallyeah Duuur, do you always repeat the same inane drivel over and over? Get back to me when you've summoned the courage to reveal who you support.
BTW, I see you tried to add me as a friend. Lonely are we? lol

Sheesh, even then Arsenal had injury problems. No Bob Wilson in goal, no George Armstrong on the wing.
Damn, Bonetti was a beast in this game. If he'd played like this against Germany in the '70 World Cup, it might have been a very different story.
Notice the Chelsea players kissing after the 3rd goal. "Rent Boys."
