Let me, just for a moment, show the fact that I am indeed an American. There’s a seminal moment in a movie from the U.S. called “Major League” where the baseball team that the movie is about realise that the owner has been plotting against them. Without getting into boring details, apparently, she wants to move the team to a bigger media market, but to force a move, she wants the team to perform so badly that she can force the city to let her move. She buys has-been or never has-been players, and there’s a moment where the team learns that they will all be released after they lose enough for her to move.
The main character then declares, “there is only one thing left to do. Win the whole f’ing thing.”
At the moment, Chelsea are at a similar crossroads. With Champions League qualification out of reach based on finishing 6th in the league, Chelsea must win the whole thing in order to get in next season.
Pittsburgh Blues Applying to be an Official Chelsea Supporters Club
Written by Curtis Kaminski
The Pittsburgh Blues has applied to be an official Chelsea Supporters Club for the 2012 Summer Tour and 2012-2013 Season. In order to accomplish this, we need 30 members to affiliate with Chelsea through the Pittsburgh Blues. This will enable us to become a Bronze level supporters club and should allow us to place a permanent Pittsburgh Blues Banner at Stamford Bridge, and possibly arrange a group trip to a Chelsea match in London. Affiliation costs nothing and allows you to formally become a registered supporter of Chelsea Football Club.
Becoming an official club will also allow us to hang a Pittsburgh Blues flag during Chelsea's tour of the USA this summer. We will make ticket details for the summer tour available as soon as they are released.
To affiliate with the Pittsburgh Blues, please create an account with this web site using the "Create Account" Button on the login form to the left. Also, fill out the official Chelsea affiliation form at http://shop.chelseafc.co.uk/affiliated_member.htm both steps are necessary.
After completing both steps, please send an e-mail to
so we know you are fully registered.
We will be redeveloping this web site to include more frequent and timely content updates and developing an e-mail group or bulletin board. All input into the development of the fan club is welcome.
