@@chalmersardler9212 Hi...thank you for writing back, its always lovely to hear all the experiences and stories of the past. I lived in London at that time..we moved up to Scotland after my dads testimonial ... He had the chance to manage Brighton at the time...not sure when he declined. He was a very humble man with a very big heart...on pitch he was a hard for sure. Thank you so much for sharing..Im outside of Glasgow now......stay safe..take care

Anne Spencer Hi Anne just watched this game as well just today and I do remember it very well in which I played for Chelsea. Your father was a really good player and a tough defender and I played against him many times. John Dempsey ex Chelsea Player . Stay Safe.

Hi Anne, was sorry to hear your Dad passed away not so long ago. I've been a Palace fan since '72 and he was my boyhood hero. They certainly don't make them like him anymore.

When I see wonderful clips like this it makes me want to say so much , but all I can say is ...Peter Osgood . For me thinking of the days of playing non stop football in the street or park ( with jumpers for goalposts obviously ) and the occasional chance to see that great Chelsea team ( respects to Peter Bonetti ) - it just makes me happy . Thank you football ⚽.

@@annespencersitbackchat424 Thank you for the days , those sacred days , those endless days you gave me . I have been looking at some clips of The Love Affair on here . Steve Ellis - only 17 ! Still get a thrill on hearing the first bars of Everlasting Love .

This was the first game at Stamford Bridge I went to with my granddad. My granddad supported Chelsea from the end of the Great war onward. His best pal choose Arsenal and granddad decided Chelsea would be his team. He was a season ticket holder for many years and used to sit close to Lord Attenborough.

Nice story bud.

Thanks for sharing this footage - i was there as a slightly nervous 14 year old Palace fan....not sure we've scored a better team goal in the 52 years since !! It was a real struggle that campaign [ only Jackson , McCormick , Blyth & Kember were bona fide top flight players ] but we loved them for their sheer grit. Fine Chelsea team too.

What a great match... a quality Chelsea goal. Peter Osgood was my hero , I got the kit, and those shorts with the number 9 , special back in the day, Chelsea kit was classy, Royal Blue. I can remember 1970 Cup Final, with Leeds. Coming from Bradford, I must have been the only one supporting Chelsea, at the Local school in Idle, Everyone at school supported Revie’s Leeds in those days. Happy, happy days. 😊

Proper footie, no diving or rolling around, luv watching the old Chelsea games. 💪💪

Then both teams go down the Kings Road and get pissed!

I was there,really exciting game with John Jackson's world class saves.

Too damm right, Londoners playing in a London team. Those days are long, long gone.... Real football and real and committed players to there team, not money ponces. ...

*PALACE* were brilliant under *Bert Head* .

I don't watch football any longer, what's the point, no London players, no English players and no British players. Just overpaid ponces who would not last ten minutes on a football pitch back in the day....

That's a proper Chelsea team..

Back when Chelsea wasn't just packed with English players, but Londoners too: Bonetti, Harris, Webb, Hinton, Dempsey, Hollins, Birchenall, Hudson, Osgood, Houseman and Tambling. That's 11 regulars all wearing the blue of Chelsea (7 of them home grown) at around the same time, late 1960s. Those were better days.

Hi John you are a great player. I have supported Chelsea since 1964. In 1966 my school team were invited to meet the players before the game against Sheffield United. We won 2-0. I can't remember who scored but I think Bobby Tamblyn scored one. Tommy Docherty and all the players were great. I remember meeting Peter Osgood and Ron Harris and Peter Bonetti. I think you joined in 1969. Thanks for all your great performances for Chelsea.

Referee's decision to disallow the goal was a total disgrace 10 yards or not where was the advantage played, just as bad then as they are today.

A great Chelsea team & the Palace could pay a bit as well!

Var ref on the Chelsea goal. What a delight to see this. Antrim eagles 🦅

Good football days

Osgood told McCormick to 'leave it' for the equaliser.

Not so, the ref hadn't blown his whistle for the free kick to be taken!

I like the way Palace break the rules and Chelsea goal gets disallowed, that ref should be sacked :)

What a lovely move by Palace early on, it deserved a goal

A plain, ordinary North Stand at Stamford Bridge. Not that overly-structured one that came a few years later which saw few spectators using it in it's early years.

Why would a great player like Hudson take such a rubbish corner putting it in orbit. The next cross harder and flatter was easy to get some power on and Ossie scored.

When the poor were not out price Thanks Bates and Dein pair of you know what

UP THE PALACE!!
