Guest User	What a season it was. Only a youngster I don't remember too much from that game. But now it's been mentioned Dixon scored, also remember I was there. Seem to remember we beat Man City 4-1 at home that season ? One of my earliest memorys of watching Town.

Through the door there came familiar laughter, I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I do find it a bit ironic that they are banging on about how well supported they were that season. I know that the IRA had bombed Harrods earlier that day, which would probably have taken a few thousand off the gate, but the attendance on that famous day at Stamford Bridge.....13151.

Unlike the glory hunters who came years later when they had money. Going to Grimsby "that day" in 1984 gives you a certificate of authenticity as Chelsea fan.
