I'm from Stoke

but lived in London and my first ever game was Chelsea v Stoke in 1973.

I'd say 75% of the Chelsea fans I saw y'day are from in and around London - but also know we've got one that now lives in Somerset (his first game was before mine, though)

Away games are always better supported than home games, I really don't like going to Stamford Bridge much nowadays - there are too many tourists, plastics etc - the atmosphere yesterday was brilliant - from both sides.

And a lot of positives for Norwich, you played well, very well

        They're both too hairy, that's why they've been sacked (NCFC) - Old Git, Oct 7, 11:51:42
        
        I genuinely think it's nothing to do with safety, more to do with knowing who's who (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:42:07
        
        Don't Dortmund give you a designated spot in the safe standing? (NCFC) - Old Git, Oct 7, 11:53:05
        
        Railseating allows for both seating and standing dependant on the event... (NCFC) - Thomo, Oct 7, 12:01:45
        
        yep - can be converted into seats easily for CL games etc (n/m) (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:56:37

        Agree. Liverpool , Chelsea and ManUtd have loads of weekend football tourists. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 11:11:45
        
        I've only been to one Norwich away (the Wrath up at Foolem) (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:17:57
        
        I would say away trips are more vocal and hardcore. (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 11:22:22

        the ref wasn't biased - he was genuinely piss poor - and these blokes get ?50k a year (n/m) (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:55:28
        
        I've been told by a lino at work that they do not give decisions on corners / goal kicks (NCFC) - BSE Canary, Oct 7, 12:05:05
        
        BTW: I can see with JM picks Oscar every game. World class IMHO. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 11:41:26

        chairs - must have been what I read (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:47:00
        
        Agree. Hughton is evolving as well. Managers need time and stability. (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 11:49:41
        
        I like Hughton, very astute manager - did well at Newcastle and didn't deserve to be (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 11:54:28
        
        Yes. Despite the managerial turnstile at Chelsea , the trophy haul speaks for itself ! (n/m) (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 11:57:26
        
        exactly - it doesn't reflect well on us as a club or fans though (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 12:01:29
        
        True but.... (NCFC) - Pit, Oct 7, 12:04:29
        
        indeed - it's a tough one to not enjoy (n/m) (NCFC) - Karnivore, Oct 7, 12:15:49
