Most liked posts in thread: Stuart on The Chelsea Win.

SM surely has to come back as a club ambassador? Alongside the other positive developments that are taking place I would LOVE to see Stuart back at the club he so passionately loves but as a club ambassador.

Can't think of anyone else who would adequately fulfil that role.

 

Sutton knocking out Coventry was bigger.

 

Agree with all the above. I was front row, goal to my left, about 10 seats away, brilliant.
One thing I remember, Jose spent most of the second half out of his seat, he could see the danger. In the context of everything else Chelsea did that season, this is one of the biggest shocks, they had a proper team out, not just kids.

 

And what a strike it was

 

It was a cracker

 

Salah, Mikel & Remy started the game, that team was the one which finished the game and lost 3 nil

 

Will do

 

I was right behind the goal in the lower part of the second tier. When Andy Halliday hit that shot there was complete silence for a split second and I distinctly heard the ball hit the net before all hell broke loose. What a day.

 

Watch the full match again. There is no point at all in the full match when we are truly backs to the wall. In fact we are the better team for most of the second half

My mate has it on dvd. We watch at least once every three months and I've probably seen it 20 times

 

Yes, that was superb. What a goal that was.

 

Yeates had a go at Billy Clarke who did take the ball into the corner with about 4 or 5 minutes to go. Far too early, and he wanted to score that goal.
Stead just ran the show and had a hand in all 4 goals. That must have been his best game ever.

 

I think given the financial gulf that exists nowadays between a club in say, league one (regardless of position in that league) and a top english premier league side, that we were 2-0 down, away, at the champions elect, it has to just shade it for the biggest shock. Obviously I’m biased. Take nothing away from any of the other great FA cup shocks. What was that stat about the only teams to score 4 at Stamford Bridge, as well? We are in company with some pretty huge names, not many of them either.

 

With our chant...Sit Down Shut Up...he couldn't believe it, just looked at our end and probably thought 'f**k, don't get this from scousers!!'...

 

Without bias, its certainly up there.

Wigan v man city, Sutton v Coventry, Liverpool v Wimbledon, Wrexham v arsenal, Burnley v Lincoln, Chelsea v bradford

Top of my head, in no particular order.

 

Saw someone mentioned Wimbledon beat Burnley in the 70’s, a quick google search to look into it and I’d say that was bigger and probably the biggest. But it’s up there, it’s more that we came from 2 down than the actual result had it been 1-0 it would hardly be talked about now.

 

Sutton were a decent non league side, Coventry were mid table First Division at best.
We were League Two (Fourth Division), Chelsea were a top Premier League side with star studded team and sub's bench, and were 2 nil up at home, after which we outplayed them, as Stuart said not 'backs to the wall 'stuff.

 

We were League One (Third Division) by then. The League Cup heroics were from League Two.
Still no less an achievement. And one my Chelsea supporting dad is frequently reminded about.

 

Sunderland beating scum super duper. But I was at Chelsea best ever...I thought 5 nil first half. and we had not played that bad

 

At Motherwell
