About Chelsea

Chelsea were founded on 10 March 1905, the deal reportedly struck at The Rising Sun pub on the Fulham Road, opposite the gates of the new Stamford Bridge ground the club was built to fill. The Blues nickname comes simply from the shirt colour. Chelsea's honours list is heavily weighted toward the twenty-first century: six league titles, eight FA Cups and two Champions League wins, in 2012 and 2021, the first arriving on penalties against Bayern Munich in Munich itself.

The club's transformation from a mid-table west London side into a fixture of European football's top table happened almost entirely within the current stadium's lifetime.

Chelsea records & quirks

  • Chelsea's biggest-ever win was a 21-0 aggregate demolition of Jeunesse Hautcharage in the 1971-72 Cup Winners' Cup.
  • Stamford Bridge's record attendance is 82,905, set for a First Division match against Arsenal in October 1935.
  • Chelsea went 86 league matches unbeaten at home between 2004 and 2008, an English top-flight record, ended by Liverpool.
  • On Boxing Day 1999, Chelsea fielded English football's first entirely foreign-born starting eleven, winning 2-1 at Southampton.

About Stamford Bridge

Chelsea's long-standing ground sits tucked between Fulham and Chelsea, a well-heeled corner of west London threaded with smart pubs, King's Road boutiques and riverside walks. Stamford Bridge has staged top-flight football and European nights for well over a century. Fulham Broadway, on the District line, is the nearest Tube station to the gates. An overnight stay nearby lets you settle into the neighbourhood's bars and beat the crush when the ground empties.
