ianmac Posted January 25, 2023 Report Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) The only time I have been in Stamford Bridge was in Sept 1978 when I was on a work trip to London. The match was Chelsea v New York Cosmos. http://thechels.info/wiki/Chelsea_1-1_New_York_Cosmos_(1978-79_Friendlies) New York had some decent players. Yashin , Beckenbauer and Cruyff!! Carlos Alberto was unfit to play for them unfortunately. However, the thing that I remember most was that the match was sponsored by Brut aftershave. On the way in we were all handed a little sachet with one of those impregnated wipes. I guess most people opened them at half time and the smell was overpowering.

antrin Posted January 25, 2023 Report Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) I stayed in Earls Court for a year. …even from there, I was a regular at Arsenal, but… ….just down the road was Charlie Cooke… great to watch… in full flow… I also was a spectator at the monstrous invasion of a couple of hundred bigots when Chelsea beat the real Rangers in a meaningless friendly… Edited January 25, 2023 by antrin Quote

I usually stayed in hotels around Kensington High St and used to go to see Arsenal midweek as it was easy to get to Highbury from there on the Underground. I once saw Tony Fitz playing there for Bristol City. Edited January 25, 2023 by ianmac Quote
