Chelsea Football Club is saddened by the passing of David Stride, a left-back of ours in the 1970s. He was 58.

Stride joined Chelsea as an apprentice and signed professional forms in January 1976, by which time he had been converted from a left winger into a full-back.

He captained our reserves before joining North American Soccer League side Memphis Rogues, managed by Eddie McCreadie, on loan. Charlie Cooke was a teammate of his in Tennessee.

He returned to London and established himself in our first team early in the 1978/79 campaign, making 33 appearances although the team were relegated from the First Division.

Stride, renowned for his pace down the left flank, played three more times in the early part of the following season, his final game a victory over Bristol Rovers at Stamford Bridge in October 1979.

Remember him well he played in arguably the poorest team in our history under Danny Blanchflower. RIP mate.

Brendan Rodgers' first match in charge at Celtic -defeat against an amateur club from Gibraltar. Goal was scored by the local policeman hahah

Turd Sport have got rid of the number one turd on that awful station Stan Collymore. They have decided not to his contract which is a euphemism for saying fuck off you deluded twat. Is anti racism fair enough but then claims EVERY Chelsea and Rangers fan are themselves racist. Has a bloody horrible Brummie accent as well. Still he could always go back to acting after his Olivier type performance in Basic Instinct 2 . And here's me thinking they had already shown a cunt in the first Basic Instinct.

I already have accepted that Manchester United and Manchester City are the only clubs who are going to win the premier league for the next 5 seasons and I just don't see good things happening for our club Chelsea with the current club management and the club not spending wisely or correctly due to Stamford Bridge Upgrade Stadium Costs.

Hahah yeah mate, happened here as well. Last night, I was watching the Sports news on Romania's biggest TV channel when all of a sudden I hear "Celtic fell to a bunch of amateurs from Gibraltar bla bla bla, goal was scored by drug dealer who just got out of prison after 6 years".

A lot of noise coming out of the offices of the F.A . It's the sound of the bottom of barrels being scraped with the possible appointment of Sam Allardyce as the new England manager.
