    By way of a little light entertainment while football descends into international nothingness. This comp is only open to those of a certain age group. This is how it goes. I have delved into my Chelsea programme collection and have pulled one out at random. So just for fun I will name both teams and 10pts will be awarded for the;

    Opposing team name

    Season

    Date (nearest wins)

    Score

    Chelsea

    Bonetti
    Harris (A)
    McCreadie
    Venables
    Mortimore
    Upton
    Murray
    Tambling
    Bridges
    Kevan
    Blunstone

    Opposing team;

    Baynham
    Bramwell
    Daniel
    Lownds
    Kelly
    Pacey
    Lornie
    Turner
    Goldie
    Davies
    Fairchild

    Good luck!

    I was born in 1994 so can I get 10 points for getting the answer and cheating? ;)

    Oh the temptations... can I do one of these line up things for you then... I went to this game so it was in the past 18 years...


    Walker
    Lyth
    Cryan
    Hotte
    Baker
    Sestanovich
    Kerr
    Kelly
    Marcelle
    Quayle
    Whitman


    Chelsea team on the day:

    Cudicini
    Melchiot
    Gallas
    Terry
    Bridge
    Cole
    Lampard
    Nicolas
    Gronkjaer
    Gudjohnsen
    Hasselbaink

    What was the opposing team's name?
    The score of the game?
    And the name of the stadium?

    I have to say that had I not gone to that game then I wouldn't have a clue who they were either! But I'm not letting you give up! ;)

    That was Chelsea v Luton April 1963 and I was there! We won 3-1 and if my memory serves me well Frank Blunstone , one of my favourites, unusually found himself on the scoresheet! I've got the programme too--I've never thrown a programmeaway. I've got a room at home we call the Chelsea room and its packed with them!

    Yeh well I'm offering 11 points for my question so you can still get beat... (Robby you already have points but I'm seeing if anyone else will get it...) Plus did you go to the game Robby?

    I know the year of the other one, because by logic Bridge and Joe Cole joined in 03 and Jimmy Floyd left the following year before Jose arrived, and we dont start in the FA cup until January so the year is 2004

    The year is 2004 but can you remember the opposing team's name and the name of the stadium?
