106 ViewsBrighton And Hove Albion vs. Chelsea : 14 February 2025 Last Saturday, it was a case of “out of the Dripping Pan and into the fire” as Chelsea meekly exited from the FA Cup at the hands of an efficient, but hardly domineering, Brighton team. As luck – or not – would have it,…
116 ViewsBrighton And Hove Albion vs. Chelsea : 8 February 2025 So, two games at Brighton in seven days. On Saturday 8 February in the Cup. On Friday 14 February in the League. Both games at 8pm. They are a funny side, Brighton, almost as funny as us. We had beaten them 4-2 earlier in…
142 ViewsChelsea vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers : 20 January 2025 I said it. You said it. Even educated fleas said it. “This is a must-win” game. And it was. With just three points out of fifteen in our previous five league games, things were starting to slip for Chelsea Football Club. Back in August, at our…
148 ViewsChelsea vs. Bournemouth : 14 January 2025 After the 3pm kick-off on the previous Saturday, I felt rather off-kilter as I made my way up to London with PD and Parky for a Tuesday evening game at home to Bournemouth. There is always a nice and natural rhythm to a run of Saturday games…

357 ViewsLeicester City vs. Chelsea : 23 November 2024 With the latest International Break behind us, real football was back on the agenda. Leicester City would host Chelsea at the King Power Stadium, with an early kick-off at 12.30pm. I collected the three amigos – PD, Glenn, Parky – by 7.30am as Storm Bert, don’t…
327 ViewsLiverpool vs. Chelsea : 20 October 2024 That bloody concourse. That bloody away end. That bloody announcer. Those bloody anthems. That bloody song. Those bloody scarves. That bloody clock. A day out on Merseyside, a day out in Liverpool, a day out at Anfield. And a few other things to talk about too. But…
582 ViewsChelsea vs. Gent : 3 October 2024 I love Thursday Night Football. I always have. For those of us that live miles away from Stamford Bridge, travelling to and from games can be tiresome affairs, especially those that take place during the week. But I always love the fact that no matter how late…
1,467 ViewsChelsea vs. Crystal Palace : 1 September 2024 Since we last spoke… …two Frome Town matches. On Bank Holiday Monday, a healthy 738 assembled at Badgers Hill, but the home team unfortunately went down 0-2 to our cross-county rivals Taunton Town.
