chelski v Barca live stream?

durruti02 is correct when he says they 'won the league and cups' in the 50s, 60s & 70s

To be precise - one League title in 1955, a League Cup in 1965 , an FA Cup in 1970 and the Cup WInners' Cup in 1971

To put this in a little perspective, it was only the other year that they superceded West Brom in the ranks of successful English clubs :D

yeah, until the Ken bates era they were no more successful than us!
 
To put it in a little more perspective, with three titles and three second places, they are roughly equal to Huddersfield Town :)
 
:D

I can't really laugh as we've never won the title, but the thing is I get sick of the English media insinuating that Chelsea are a long established member of the english footballing elite - it's nonsense.
 
Chelsea only exist because Gus Mears failed to persuade Fulham to relocate to his stadium and faced with owning a white elephant, he chose to form his own club which he managed to get voted into the League without any obligation to pay their dues in the Southern League or similar. They have been a rich man's plaything for as long as they have existed, effectively a property venture with a football club attached since their (somewhat late) formation in 1905
 
I'm quite obviously older than you, sad sack. Chelsea were an nothing team who were going nowhere. Only idiot popstars and 'B' list celebs supported them as a kind of fashion statement.

Care to tell me what cups and honours Chelsea won in the 1970's aside from one FA Cup in 1970? :D

you really do know nothing nino about most things .. i always knew you knew jack shite about politics but football too? lol

fact - chelsea were one of the best supported teams in the country from the turn of the century until the mid 7ts and in 9 seasons from 1907 to 1954 times they were THE best supported team in the whole country .. and that was while yes they were also a pretty average football team though usually First Division ..

so not only 'idiot popstars' supporters and NOT a nothing team .. what a daft things to say
 
He's incorrect when he claims that they were a successful club in the 70's; 1970 does not constitute "the 70's". :D
learn to read please .. i never said 'sucessful' i said 'big' .. an important differrence .. chelsea were never that successful .. but they have always been big

your history may be right but the idea they were just a rich mans plaything is ridiculous .. they have always been the biggest w/c team in the west off london before their years in the wilderness they were a big irish club ( proximity to hammersmith etc)
 
Chelsea have overtaken Man Utd as the most hated team in England, FACT!


and with players like Drogba & Ashley Cole it's hardly surprising
I was passing outside a pub in Kilburn which was showing the game, and there was a small crowd gathered outside looking in. I had a few minutes until my train so stopped to watch the extra time. When the yellows scored, the street erupted, wild cheering and clapping. Hang on, Chelsea are in blue right? It took me a while to assure myself that Barca had scored and not Chelsea :D
