Is it you whose best mate is a Chelsea fan? So was it a good atmosphere then? What stand were you in? I think they're alright for making noise, Chelsea, but as you say they don't have great songs and I always find the London accent to be not as good to listen to.
Their version of "you are my sunshine" where they go "wooooahh wooooahh wooooahh wooooahh....." is probably their best song.
Yes Dan, my mate had a spare going on the free (and I've been known to be a bit of an ABU at times) in the Matthew Harding Lower Gate 13, which is there or thereabouts what my position is at the back of 117.
I must have heard "Champions of Europe, we know what we are" at least 40 times.
The MHL is basically the same as the South Stand, apart from it's closer to the pitch and there's more of a roof to let the noise travel. And there's not 3,000 people to the right of the goal supporting someone else.
It made me think that the mentality of the fans is a bit different too. If the chips are down with us, we don't have enough people who want to become the 12th man. We get too nervous because we've got this confidence complex. But I think with time that will change.
It was me that started the "shit Michael Jackson" song aimed at Nani by the way!
