I seem to recall one of their players (Lyle something? - can't be arsed to check) do the shushing Shipley after scoring the winner.

Hopefully we can get our revenge. That really pissed me off.

Lyle Taylor... Shushing is one of his celebrations I would guess as he did it at the Valley for their pen (Baka double, the boat etc.). Bit of a twat.

It’s an interesting signing. JCS at 23 still on Chelsea’s books but just keeps being loaned out. He’s in the last year of his contract. Wonder if we could be offering a full perm deal at the end of the season if he does well?

He hasn't signed on loan yet has he? Nothing said so far too substantiate him signing

The Wallygraph is reporting it now.

JCS was on loan at Vitesse the season after Dabo. Dabo was there at the same time as Mason Mount.

Vitesse of course was the stadium the Arena was supposed to be modelled on.

Spoke to some blues fans about JCS tonight and they were impressed with him. They were disappointed that they’ve not gone back in for him. Apparently a solid ball playing left footed centre back. Karanka ruined him so hopefully Robins will get the best out of him.

Karanka was the manager for his first loan spell too I thought where he did well?

It's likely to be worse
They were an also ran team for years until all the Russian money came in and they could buy success
A lot of their newer fans have never known how it is to support a proper football team

Just read a report he's been on loan in Turkey for the 2nd half of last season. Probably down the Chelsea pecking order. Would certainly do a cracking job in our CM, if we could get across the £100K per week ages :O

I went down to Chelsea in 1994 to see us beat them, there were under 10,000 dotted around Stamford Bridge & they were in the FA Cup Final the following week.

The glory hunters all rocked up few years later when the money flooded in.

Makes me sick.

Abramovich took it to next level making them an international brand and re developing everything.

QPR were easily the best team in West London in the 1980s/1990s.

They are now the 4th best, their close neighbours Brentford even in premier league..how times change.

Not too dissimilar to our standing in the West Midlands clubs from the mid 80's though 90s compared to now

Abramovich took control of Chelsea in 2003, 97-02 qualified for the Champions League twice, not as big as they now but by no means a small club back then

They had two generous benefactors really, they got a load of cash from Matthew Harding in the 90s which built the foundations for Abramovich, they were getting average gates in the teens in the 90s until Harding started to invest.

When we played them in the PL at Stamford Bridge in May 94, the gate was 8k

Exactly my point people forget that. 3 years later they got Desailly in their team Poyet etc. Team full of internationals...and world cup winners.

I went around then so checked the scores to see if it was that year. So, in 93/4 there were 9k there and we won 1-2, the year after there were 25k there and we drew 2-2 (that’s when I went). Not sure what happened that year to increase it so much.
