Blues fans can still get their hands on a copy of the collectors’ edition matchday programme – inspired by the 1970 FA Cup final publication – from last week’s game against Liverpool, featuring an exclusive interview with Billy Gilmour.
A limited number of copies of this unique matchday programme, featuring Olivier Giroud on the cover, are still available to purchase online here or in the Megastore.Inside the programme you can find out about Gilmour’s move into first-team football this season ahead of his eye-catching display against the Reds, as he played a key role in our 2-0 victory which sealed a semi-final place.Both Frank Lampard and Cesar Azpilicueta have their usual manager’s and captain’s columns, which appear in every issue of the programme along with notes from the managers of our development squad, Under-18s and Women’s side.Our FA Cup history with Liverpool is examined through a photographic look back at the fixture over the years, plus an in-depth look back at our famous comeback in 1997, as told by the hero of that tie, Mark Hughes.Other historic content includes 1970 FA Cup-winning skipper Ron Harris discussing the time he was booed for booting Stanley Matthews around the Bridge, while the heroes of our 2000 FA Cup triumph are remembered 20 years on from the last final played at the old Wembley Stadium.The programme costs £3.50 and is available at every home fixture in and around Stamford Bridge, the Megastore and online.
