As you probably remember,Rocka-we won this game 5-0 but made a stuttering start to the league
season(not playing well and drawing the first 4 games).
Perhaps Cloughie had his mind on the forthcoming Liverpool European Cup game!

Oh aye, Cloughie.

82 Brazil , the goals they scored it’s hard to pick the best one, and the strip was the nuts

The last time ever it was ok to hear drum beats in the crowd

We did indeed(1-0)-particularly memorable as I got soaked on an open terrace and ran out of petrol in the centre of London after the game due to a faulty fuel gauge.

I was there in the Shed End with a Chelsea supporting mate, it did sling it down and I was wearing a suit jacket jacket as we were going out in London after the game and getting the last train back.

Think it was one of only three games we lost that season.

This looks like the promotion clash at Chelsea in 1977,Rocka-where we unluckily lost 2-1.

The famous smoke bomb game

I don’t recall the smoke bomb-my memory is of bits of loose terracing being thrown between the 2 sets of
fans.
Forest v Chelsea often seemed to be a trouble fixture in those days.

I still don’t remember it!
Was this during or before the game?
My main memory was Forest unluckily losing 2-1 after taking the lead through Martin O’Neill.

It was all over the papers the next day, think Cloughie moaned about it spoiling his view

At what point did the smoke bomb go off? When Chelsea scored?

The home game was a much nicer day out, fun for all the family

Chelsea fans were allocated the Trent End that day.
There was trouble in the Bridgford End and at Earl’s Court tube station the previous season which seemed
to carry over into the following season.

I sat with my dad on the benches in the East Stand watching the Forest mob below us climbing the wall to get into the Trent End. I'm sure they stopped the game for a while.
