I was at that game with my little sis, started at the back of Park Lane, got pushed to the front by the sheer number of people, and ended up on the edge of the pitch when the players came out.
Don't recall much of the game TBH, but I do remember the excitement and emotion of the occasion.
As mentioned in the music thread, we all sang Bye Bye Chelsea at the end, probably the only time so many men sang along to the Bay City Rollers!!

I was in the Shelf together with a very innocent Mrs B who stared at me jumping around thanking God, Terry Wogan or anyone else
A few Chavs in there but were just treated to plenty of verbal abuse
Happy days!!
Why Terry Wogan??
He was ‘big’ at the time and I’m sure Bruce Forsyth also got a mention!!
So happy it was them instead of us!
Jess Yates - yes. But Terry Wogan?!!
Did anyone clock the wanker sign during the match?
Lower Shelf for me, was kicking off all over the place
2 fantastic saves from Big Pat and a cracking goal by Alfie Conn - great stuff!
......and Stevie too!!
A lot on here too young to get the Paula Yates joke
Either that or it wasn’t funny!
That's the first time I've seen Ray Wilkins with hair. And he was surprisingly influential for an 18 year old midfielder; all of Chelsea's attacks came from his passes.
Thanks for sharing.

I thought it appropriate to leave it for you to mention Skip!
BTW... it was fantastic to hear Alfie being interviewed on the Spurs Show about his time at WHL. He was asked about his cult status and the esteem that Tottenham fans held him, and put it down to his playing style being in the 'Spurs Way'. This was definitely part of it, but I believe that his long locks and straggly beard endeared him to the fans 'cos basically he looked just like one of us.
I always think of the gates to the away end as you turned from the High road into Park Lane and spray painted on them was 'Alfie Conn is god'. Indelibly etched in my memory.
Was still there a few years after he left.
It might be in TBWAH actually.
