Sorry, I forgot that Chelsea fans only count the Abramovich years as you all supported someone else before that.
I agreed that it depends on what you believe the word fluke to mean. Oxford Dictionary: lucky accidental stroke or success Collins English Dictionary: accidental success or stroke of luck Wikipedia: A fluke is a lucky or improbable occurrence, with the implication that the occurrence could not be repeated I tend not to use Wikipedia as a gospel source of information as it's unreliable.
Tell me, how many players from the Chelsea and Spurs 1967 cup final squads appeared in the 2008 league cup final?
It was used as 'evidence' that it wasn't a fluke because Spurs beat Chelsea in a final before, but failed to mention that it was almost 50 years prior
No but the point is, how can a game played 41 years prior between two completely different teams of players have any bearing on the 2008 cup final?
It's irrelevant. You asked whether it had happened before and I pointed out that it had. You should've known that already, of course.
It was used at evidence that we had beaten Chelsea in a final before, which is what the question was..
No, I was asking for evidence of that Spurs team, beating that Chelsea team in a prior cup final. BTW, the 67 cup final took place 15 years before I was born mate
Other surprise teams have won the league. Even if we used the Wikipedia definition of "fluke" (and who the **** uses Wikipedia as a dictionary?) then Leicester winning the league isn't a fluke.
I am sure it made all the difference in 2008! Not a single player on the field that day was even born when the 67 cup final took place
You didn't ask that. You'd be suggesting that nothing like that ever happens now too, as teams constantly change. What's the likelyhood of two teams with the exact same players meeting in different seasons? Virtually nil nowdays.
