Yeah heard that about Alan Ball as well. God rest the squeaky voiced one. Heard some disparaging things about Hurst as well when he was managing us-basically ''ive done it all, i'm better than you'' kind of attitude.

Nothing beats Eddie Mcreadie though allegedly walking out on Stamford Bridge because they wouldn't let him have a Ford company car. Imagine Conte walking out because Abramovich wont let him have a Ford Focus :D

Yes Chelsea have always shot themselves in the foot it's in our D.N.A.. I was especially gutted because I had a Eddie McCreadie's Blue and White Army silk scarf that I used to wear on my wrist those were the days.

Yeah all that Chels memorabilia really collectable now. Had a huge collection of badges that I got rid of.

Btw you can tell this is an international forum - youre the only one that's acknowledged English footballs greatest achievement

Bought a pin badge on Ebay the little one's from the late 70's early 80's.. You could get them in yellow and green and white and blue as well.  I also bought a red white and green scarf. Had loads of badges and scarfs when I was a kid some of them cost about 30 quid on Ebay now. I moved house recently had to leave all my Chelsea fanzines I used to buy them all even though some of them were terrible like Red Card.

You could go straight to Bein. They're offering beinsportsconnect, a similar service to Premier League Pass. 

It's not up at the moment but Bein said it will be up, you won't need to subsribe with sky to get it, but it won't be available before the first round of EPL.

Rumours has it that it will be $18/month, much better than subscribing to sky. Though it probably works best if you have good connection at home.

This it?

Looks pretty good, also better than PLP as its also got UCL and cheaper it seems (PLP was about $199 for the season IIRC). Might get that when it arrives.

Yup, that's it. Some games will have a delayed broadcast but those are mostly the smaller teams. I have never used PLP before so I am not sure how reliable streaming services like these are. I just got a new wireless provider so hopefully it streams smoothly. And not sure how good the HD is compared to normal TV. But definitely better than Sky. EPL + CL is all I need.

PLP was really good!! quality was on par with TV. I guess the quality will be determined by your internet.

I'm getting too old/lazy to stay up to the early hours to watch the games, so hopefully they have the option of on demand games that i can watch the next day like PLP had
