Chelsea F.C.–A Brief Summary

Chelsea F.C. Crest

Chelsea F.C. Crest

Chelsea F.C. has a long and rich history in the realm of English Football. For most of their existence, they have been considered as part of the top-tier of English Football clubs. As a member of the English Premier League, Chelsea F.C. faces stiff competition each year, making their recent accomplishments that much more impressive.

Originally known as the Pensioners, Chelsea was formed on March, 14 1905 and was elected to the Football League not long after. Upon their entry into the League, Chelsea’s showings were less than impressive. It wasn’t until the 1950′s that Chelsea became a formidable adversary on the British stage. New manager Ted Drake took over in 1952 and began to transform the team into a version of what we know today. Now known as the Blues, Drake and his new squad won the 1954-55 League Championship, the club’s first major trophy.

Under manager Tommy Docherty, the Blues made formidable runs at trophies throughout the 1960′s but fell short in all but one endeavor, the 1964-65 League Cup. In 1970, Chelsea won the FA Cup over Leeds United and continued their winning ways into the following season, winning the UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup over Real Madrid, their first major European honor. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t be until the mid-nineties that Chelsea would re-establish its dominance in the football world.

The New Premier League, founded in 1992, became Chelsea’s home upon its formation. The Blues would not display top form in the league until 1994, when they reached the FA Cup Final. 1996 saw a change for Chelsea as they added accomplished star Ruud Gullit as player-manager. Gullit signed several international players with tremendous talent which allowed the Blues to capture the 1997 FA Cup, firmly establishing them as one of England’s top sides.

More recently, after the 2003 sale of the club to Russian businessman Roman Abramovich, the team began to dominate both the English and International stage. Under their new ownership, the Blues spent upwards of 100 million pounds on new talent and a new manager, Jose Mourinho. It was under Mourinho that Chelsea achieved its greatest successes. Chelsea won back to back league championships in 2004-2005 and 2005-2006, becoming only the 5th English team to do so, as well as capturing the 2007 FA and League Cups. Chelsea made it to their first ever UEFA Champions League Final in 2007 under new manager Avram Grant. Since then, Chelsea has continued to play on a high level.

Chelsea FC Stadium

The Blues have played football for over a century and since their inception they have called only one place home, Stamford Bridge. With a bowl-like design and a covered terrace, Stamford Bridge could originally hold approximately 10,000 people. In an attempt to modernize the pitch in the 1970′s, a massive renovation was planned that would turn Stamford Bridge into a more modern 50,000 all-seater stadium. But this plan was stalled due to mounting financial costs. Renovation work continued in the mid-nineties and the plan was back in action.

Chelsea FC Manager

Aside from winning, the other thing the Blues have been known for is a revolving door of managers. This season is no different as coach Carlo Ancelotti will take over the helm. Formally of AC Milan, Ancelotti won 234 matches with the club and captured two UEFA Super Cups (03, 07) as well as two UEFA Champions League titles (02-03, 06-07). With his creative style of coaching as well as his experience in high pressure situations, Ancelotti should have Blue’s fans eagerly anticipating the future of the team.

Bolton FC Info

Bolton Wanderers FC Crest

Bolton Wanderers FC Crest

Bolton FC has a long tradition in English football that dates back 135 years. The club was founded in 1874 by Reverend Jon Farrall Wright as Christ Church FC. Three years later however, the club was renamed as Bolton Wanderers FC. The name Wanderers came from the team’s lack of a home field in their early days. It was not until 1881 that Bolton settled at one home ground. Prior to this date they played their home games on several different pitches.

Bolton FC Manager

On October 25, 2007 Bolton FC introduced Gary Megson as their new manager. Megson was tasked with keeping the Wanderers in the top flight, a standing that had become precarious in the past few seasons. Megson was a defensive midfielder in his playing days, bouncing between 9 different teams in his 18 year career. His managerial career has spanned 17 years and 7 clubs. Megson’s most successful stint prior to Bolton was with West Bromwich Albion where he twice led them to promotion into the Premier League.

Bolton Wanderers Stadium

Bolton FC spent the better part of their early existence “wandering” from pitch to pitch for home games, lacking a true ground to call their own. In 1881 the team found a suitable ground, but remained there for only 14 years. From 1895 until the early 1990s they made their home at Burnden Park. In the early 90s, with Premier League ambitions and a deteriorating stadium, the decision was made to build a new park. Construction on Reebok Stadium began in 1995 and was completed in time for the 1997-98 season. Reebok Stadium seats 28,723 and was named after the club’s longtime sponsor. The decision to give the stadium a corporate name angered many of the fans who saw it as further proof that finances and not football were becoming more important in England. Fans have since warmed up to the stadium name, due in part to Reebok having its roots in the area.

The Wanderers hold a unique spot in English football history as they are one of the founding members of the Football League in 1888. In the early decades of the Football League, the Wanderers were up and down between the first and second tier of the league. The 1920s ushered in a long era of prosperity for the Wanderers as they won the FA Cup three times during the decade, in 1923, 1926, and 1929. Building off their cup triumphs in the 20s, Bolton began a 29 year run in which they never fell from the top flight of English football, lasting from 1935-1964.

The club peaked in the 1950s, when they won the FA Cup for a fourth time in 1958. That was the last time Bolton brought home a major trophy, and from that point the club began a slow decline that saw them exit the top flight. The Wanderers bottomed out in 1987 when they were relegated to the fourth division of English football for the first time in club history. Since that point however, Bolton FC has been on a trek back to the top of football, something they achieved in 1995.

Bolton Wanderers begin quest for first major trophy in 51 years. On August 15 Bolton Wanderers Football Club will start off the new Barclay’s Premier League season by hosting Sunderland AFC at Reebok Stadium. The Wanderers’ will be looking to erase a 51 year drought that has seen them fail to bring home any major trophy. A member of the Premier League since 2001, Bolton will be trying to cement their position in the Premier League and improve upon their standing from the past two seasons.
