The Sinister History Of The Chelsea Headhunters

[@Lone-Wolf_Adventures69]

Chelsea v Millwall was a deadly rivalry in those days. I went to that infamous FA Cup match when my beloved Shed was now temporary seats for Millwall. The violence after the match was unparalleled.

A few of my mates were at the Wolves v Chelsea night match at the start of the season, in 1978. On the way from the bus stop past the train station, they were chased by a mob of Chelsea. What scared them was that the Chelsea mob chasing them were not skinheads or boot-boys - they were bearded 30 year old men in donkey jackets. A day or two later, in a record shop with one lad, he pulled the Stranglers Black & White album out of the racks, and said, "Chelsea was just like that!"

I remember Chelsea coming into the Holgate at Boro in 78/ 79. They came very early (about 2pm) and weren't allowed to stay long, but at least they had a go. Can't recall anyone else having a go.

To this day I hold a massive grudge against Chelsea, whoever they're playing I will support their opposition even foreign clubs.

Inaccurate. The Huddersfield Chelsea game when a Chelsea fan was killed was a league game. The FA cup game was earlier & Chelsea brought hardly any fans.

[@OldWolflad]

Chelsea were certainly the worst behaved mob to come to Molineux back in the 70s, in the 1976-77 game there were 111 arrests as rival fans battled - as the report says there was no fence separating fans on the huge old South bank until the next game the following 1977-78 season. There were about 5000 Chelsea for the first game even though they were meant to be banned, but they didn't take the South Bank but it was very nasty as two huge mobs repeatedly battled. Remember the North Bank was the proper home end back then, but a mob of Wolves went in the huge South bank for a scrap. The following game the next season, yes the fence was up by then in the South Bank and that of course separated the two mobs, perhaps why Chelsea ran round the side of the ground outside and entered the North Bank towards the end of the game, which after 1976 became the old mans end with all Wolves lads going in the South Bank. People did surge forward in panic in the North bank but don't really recall Chelsea actually going onto that terrace in any number, I think they realised that they weren't fighting lads because to be fair they didnt really attack anyone in there. Chelsea were by far the maddest in the old First Division, Forest were also tough lads back then.

Seem to recall Spurs taking your end in the UEFA final ... So impressed by us were the locals that they started a Spurs Midland firm

[@OldWolflad]

@@britishqueen94 ha ha no you didn’t. 1972 UEFA cup final the North Bank was the home end, the Wolves mob only moved to the South Bank in 1977. Spurs brought a lot in the South Bank but as you probably actually know, that was where away fans normally went. The South Bank held 32,000 so although the Wolves mob went there from 1977 the away fans also went in there. Hence they built a fence in 1978. I presume you mean the Queen St gang, yeah was a bit weird why they chose Spurs. The main gang in Wolverhampton at that time was the Temple Street gang who were Wolves thru and thru.

[@britishqueen94]

@@OldWolflad No problem...when we went away there was around 50 midland Spurs waiting to hook up with us....I know we had support around Wolverhampton and Worcester

[@Oldgit60]

I remember the week before the 77 game at Molineux, walking from the station up to the Shed gates there was someone selling tickets for Wolves about every 50 yards. A few went up and bought tickets in bulk, one or two West Mids blues helped out as well. I paid £1.50 for an 80p terrace ticket. One of the great days out of my youth. I’ll never forget the snack bar under the South Bank at half time, utter carnage. Funny thing was, at the end of the game the mood on the pitch was pretty positive, both going up after all, plenty of handshakes and the like. Then the police got involved and it all started kicking off.

[@OldWolflad]

@@Oldgit60 It was madness that day. There must have been 5000 Chelsea in the huge old South Bank, which was the actual away end but where lots of home fans also went. That created a uniquely explosive situation and no one gave any quarter. Of course, in the earlier return fixture at Stamford Bridge, we numbered probably a 1000 and were out of our depth.

I was a kid standing in the shed at that Chelsea vs Boro game. We won the game, but it was a two legger and we lost overall, which meant we were relegated. Towards the final whistle I noticed a lot of fans going forward down the steps and by the time the ref blew his whistle they were out on the pitch. I started to make my way forward as well - I wanted to make plain my disgust and anger too but just as I was getting onto the pitch police horses charged from the right side of the shed. I thought better of it - made my way back up to the stand and joined in the chorus in letting boro fans what we thought of them, while urging our fans on. It was probably all over in less than 10 minutes. Not really much violence, but the media really ran with the story. I kind of regret not stepping out onto the pitch since I never got the chance of doing so since then. Oh well.

As I remember the so called 'Chelsea Head Hunters' got a brutal kicking at WHL Tottenham in 1975. I was there and see the lot including the pitch invasion and what took place in the Paxton Road end and in the High Road after the match that Spurs won 2:0. Yet again in 1978 the 'Chelsea Head Hunters' got a serious kicking in the Tottenham High Road with several 'Rent Boys' taken away in a stream of ambulances. Tottenham had some fans with serious mental issues who supervised the Paxton Road end and who were seriously violent and even the 'Old Bill' got kicked in on many occasions. 1970s and 1980s were the days when serious crowd disorder was the norm at football matches.

A few hundred did get in, including the press box. But Spurs and plod were already wary of the situation.

That Chelsea Anfield BS story on the kop only Spurs turned up in numbers to Liverpool and Everton back in the day from London ?

[@johnholmes8178]

Total fiction about Chelsea fans taking The Kop in 1973. Don't recall Chelsea ever once showing up in any numbers at Anfield during the 1970s. PS. For the record, Liverpool won that game 1-0 with a Kevin Keegan goal.
