Friendly rivalry
In his latest blog for the official Chelsea website, Stephen Rea explains what it's like watching the Blues in America alongside rival fans...

It may also be known as the last eight, but the quarter-finals have rarely signalled the end of our European adventures, and we are well placed for a fourth consecutive victory in continental quarters after taking a 1-0 lead against Slavia Prague.

A Bridge too far, just!
In his latest blog for the Chelsea website, Stephen Rea explains why tiredness got the better of him for our clash with Cardiff but was back fresh and alert to watch our victory over Brighton. I returned home from the pub happy after watching Chelsea defeat Brighton. But I have a confession to make. The first half of the Cardiff game was a (Stamford) Bridge too far for me.

Birds of a feather

How times have changed
In his latest USA blog for the official Chelsea website, Stephen Rea discusses how football stadia has changed and why he prefers sitting close to the dugouts... I’ve been watching professional football for 42 years. The best seat I’ve ever had at a game was for Chelsea’s visit to Chicago in 2006. My friend’s dad is friends with Steve Clarke, at the time our assistant coach (and former player of course), and he gave us free tickets. They were superb, about five rows from the front near the halfway line, although we lost 1-0 to the MLS All-Stars.
