how many times did we hit the woodwork in the FA cup final 2010?

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Boro about 40 seconds I think

I was convinced it was 47, but googling it I find it's actually 42. So you were closer than I were!

I would have been at that final but gave my 2 tickets to my sons

IIRC, we hit it 5 times - Kalou, Lampard, Drogba, Terry and Anelka.

And can't help but to remember this given you mentioned that final...

[edetarod 2,155]

yep, it was 5 times

CLOSE ,, to hold both Trophies at the same time

My question:

Which player had the shits from Spurs buy his flights before he saw the light? I heard he got a call from Abramovich and then off he went to Stamford Bridge, or something along those lines? He also quite possibly hates Tottenham.

Willian

[Muzchap 8,966]

Which player's surname had 3 letters and he made Crouch's ball control look like a child's (for a big man)

I'd love this guy as our backup now

What was unique about our 6-0 win vs Wigan in 2010?

[Tomo 21,681]

When was the last time we lost a home league game where the winner wasn't scored by an ex blue?

Oh gawd. I remembered I saw something about that but can't recall it!

That 3-2 debacle against United - Hernandez with that blatant offside goal!

No corners although it was unique in another way, I have never seen a team play so bad yet win 6-0, we literally scored with every single chance we created.

[OhForAGreavsie 5,775]

That's correct. Which is also a European record. We won the other leg 8-0 also. 21-0 on aggregate which is another European record. One i doubt will ever be beaten.

I heard a story that Ossie had a bet with Peter Bonetti that he would score 6 goals against them. He got to 5 and we won a penalty and Bonetti ran from his goal and handed the ball to another of our players!! Not sure how true that is though

Also i think one of their players only had 1 arm.... again not sure how true that is.

Maybe one of our older members can shed some more light on them stories.

I don't think I've heard the story about Ossie and The Cat but it sounds too good not to be true. One of the Jeunesse Hautcharage (Luxembourg) players definitely had lost a part of one arm however. We used to run around the playground re-enacting the game by holding one arm across our chests.

And now my question...

What is unique about our seven FA Cup wins?

[boshman 1,073]

I don't know if this is unique but I am going to take a punt at us having 7 different managers.

Sexton

Gullit

Vialli

Jose

Hiddink

Carlo

Correct. No other team has achieved three or more wins without at least one manager leading them to triumph on more than one occasion. You have also robbed me of my supplemental question which was going to be, 'Name them', so, sticking with the number 7, I am instead going to ask....

Without looking them up, I can think of 7 Premier League records held by Chelsea. Can anyone : -

Name those seven, and

Tell me if we hold any others that I haven't remembered.

• Most wins in a season
• Most points recorded in a season
• Most goals scored in a season
• Least goals conceded in a season
• Most clean sheets in a season
• Most home wins in a season
• Most away wins in a season
• Least draws in a season
• Best goal difference in a season
• Most home goals scored in a season

They are all the ones I can think of.
