Munich or Bust! The Chelsea Football FanCast #206

Chidge is joined by Dazza, The Celery Terrorist and Ross for the final countdown to Munich Munich with special guest Paul Baker, writer of England and Chelsea songs!

So Chelsea’s disappointing premier league season fizzled out on a sunny Sunday afternoon yesterday with a stroll against already relegated Blackburn. Lukaku and Sam Hutchinson got a game, JT scored, Drogba got to wave goodbye and even Torres got to run around for a bit in our 2-1 win that leaves us in 6th position – our worst league position since Mr A took control. Bruce Buck is not happy, but who really cares, after all we’re going to Munich Munich!!

We discuss the Blackburn and hung-over match against Liverpool and award some ‘Fannies’ – for Man of the Match, Chant of the match, Guinness and Celery moments, as always.

The usual suspects are joined by Paul Baker who as well as being a massive Chelsea fan, has also penned some excellent England songs such as “Stand Up For England” and “Cabanga” including a new one for the upcoming Euros – “Sing 4 England” with Chris Kamara.

To carry on the musical theme, we’ve got another terrace classic in “Shall We Sing a Song for You!” and the best posts from the week in “You’re on CFFC”. All this plus a preview of potentially the greatest game in Chelsea’s history; a look back at the Yoof Cup win; and Chelsea’s Player of the Year

We’ll also be revealing who won last week’s vote for our second striker in the Chelsea FanCast All Time Best XI, and who the final XI are. And last but by no means least we’ll be revealing where we came in the EPL Talk awards and announcing another chance for you to vote for us in the Football Bloggin Awards and an interview with their main man.

Blimey, if that isn’t enough to keep you going until we get to Munich Munich then I don’t know what is!!!

The Chelsea Football FanCast is a weekly internet radio show dedicated to the Chels. The show is the real deal with real opinions and banter from lifelong fans that go to the games and live in the manor!

Presented by Chelsea nut David ‘Stamford Chidge’ Chidgey, the show discusses the latest Chelsea issues from the fans perspective. Chidge is usually joined by Dr Mart, ChelTel, the Blues Brothers (Stu and Chris aka The Celery Terrorist), and Ross, Pablo and Dazza Mental – the mates he goes to the games with to carry on the pub banter on the podcast. We record the show every Monday at 7.30 pm (usually!) at Putney Station Bar, near East Putney Tube station, so come and join us and sit on the ‘Benches’ and throw in a comment or a heckle or two!!

In addition, when they can be begged, borrowed or stolen, some of the Football Pundits, Journalists, ex-Players and legends, Chelsea authors and Celebs and downright nutters Chidge knows make guest appearances on the show.

Expect banter, biased opinion, and downright nonsense all in the Blue cause. The show is the best, most authentic and totally independent Chelsea podcast on the planet. If you don’t believe us check out what our listeners have to say:

“If you are a die hard supporter, a CFC for life, or even if you’re a new fan of the team or the game stop here and listen to these chaps give it straight. They are honest supporters who give you the latest in news around the Bridge. Learn some of our songs and fly the blue flag high. I must admit I found this about two months ago and wish it was a daily podcast sometimes. Up the Blues. Up this podcast. Enjoy.” Felix Verran

“Been listening to the show for about 6 months now. Never fails to cheer me up during the week. Beer, banter and Chelsea bias. Great lads who do a great show representing a great team. If you love the Chels and want to have a laugh listening to pre/post match discussions of games by real fans then this is the perfect podcast. Love it!!!” Ashes2Ashes

“Being from the US it’s hard to find good support for Chelsea. This is an excellent podcast. The guys are serious supporters. Tales from the Shed is great. Keep it up!” RU Sam

“Why listen to Gigi Salmon when you can get real opinions from Chidge, Mart , Chel Tel and the rest of the lads? A must for all Blues fans young and old.” Torres is Carragher’s bit on the side

“This podcast and website are the best thing to happen to me as a Chelsea fan.The podcast, articles and the message board I just love it. Thank You guys for volunteering your time to connect us across the pond to Stamford Bridge” J Kane

“Great podcast guys, I look forward to hearing your thoughts on Chelsea after every game, keep it up!” Lev Maximovsky

“The Chelsea football fancast is a testament to the things that loyal supporters want. Totally free of charge, completely biased and completely blue. Being a young-ish blue these guys have given me the opportunity to meet new people and make lots of new Chelsea mates, so I don’t have to go alone on match days like I used to, which sums up the great camaraderie between Chels fans.” Stuart Thomas

“Guys, great podcasts! Ross’s “chink in the defence” remark was probably the funniest thing i’ve heard in a while…i was in the dining hall eating lunch and nearly spit my water out all over some people walking by. i’m sure i speak for all chelsea fans who need an emotional lift when i say …job well done to you all. keep up the good work and up the chels! Oh yes…” Benjamin Faust
