  • Summary

  • On the 10th of March, Chelsea Football Club celebrated its 120th anniversary. It’s fair to say from 1905 to 2025 there’s been chaos, controversy, jubilation, heartache, success, failure and everything in between. On this episode, we follow the club into the modern day and discuss the seismic changes that have taken place behind the scenes since the takeover by BlueCo in 2022. Matt Davies-Adams has got Simon Johnson and Liam Twomey alongside him to analyse the current state of the men’s team - which it’s fair to say is going through a bit of a tumultuous time! Then, we’re joined by The Athletic’s Dan Sheldon, who’s recently investigated some of the concerns around the ‘CFC LDN’ rebrand and whether there are wider connotations… We had to finish on a high note, so Jessy Parker Humphreys is with us to explain how despite it all - the women’s team have maintained their standards of excellence (Man City 1st leg aside!) and continued to win trophies while the men’s team have struggled to compete. Read Simon's piece on Chelsea's rich history before 2003 Read Liam's piece on Chelsea's most important match from each decade Back on Monday to look ahead to the return to Premier League action with the small matter of Tottenham coming to Stamford Bridge - plus we'll check in on the fortunes of CFCW! HOST: Matt Davies-Adams WITH: Simon Johnson, Liam Twomey, Dan Sheldon and Jessy Parker Humphreys PRODUCER: Lucy Oliva Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
