50 Years of Chelsea - 1969-70

The Chelsea FanCast looks back, season by season, to 50 Years of Chelsea history from 1970 to the present day.


Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd, Tony Glover and Alex Churchill to look back at one of Chelsea's most memorable seasons: 1969-70.


This is the season Chelsea finally won the FA Cup Final and gave birth to a whole new generation of Chelsea supporters, many still going today.


Chelsea's epic encounter with Leeds United was watched by a record TV viewing audience and the replay at Old Trafford was one of the most violent matches of all time. Peter Osgood's flying header and David Webb's last gasp winner in extra time made legends of the King's of the Kings Road.

He also learns to referee himself, experiencing first-hand the speed and scrutiny that come with every call.Through defining matches and controversial decisions, he examines the influence of VAR, how referees judge fouls, and the excruciatingly fine margins between control and chaos.And he looks into the issues between Chelsea and Anthony Taylor with a little help from Chidge, JK and Dan Silver!You can purchase the book on Amazon here
