    Chelsea-Back in the 1st we went back up the year before Man U got relegated
    1975 Chelsea relegated
    1976 tottenham relegated
    1977 Man Utd relegated

    Long hot summer of '76, sand too hot to walk on, droughts, stand pipes on street corners,
    Park my dads car at the beach all day then get in with sunburnt skin and stick to the black vinyl seats :)

    I remember them going down. We got Dave Sexton and Ray the crab Wilkins off them. I think Docherty spent some time there as well.
