    Well done Chelsea. Aldershot were my local team when I was young. Actually saw them play Spurs in the FA Youth Cup - a certain Graeme Souness was in the Spurs team

    Chelsea also persuaded Addidas to provide the Shots with new kits. Not a big thing for Addidas but a huge expense saved for the Shots.

    Good for you guys. Growing up near Aldershot, I went to a couple of their games. Glad you've helped keep them around.

    Now Villa need to do the same for Coventry!!

    that's nice that a bigger team helps out by using there pitch to play games, giving the club some much needed income, win win for both, the same way man utd play at the Cheshire team Altringham or something like that, ffc also helped a lower league team about 10 years ago, we gave q.p.r some much needed income when they were in dire financial straights, never got a thanks from them though
