That's pretty damn impressive. Especially given the financial constraints they've had to operate under.Even before Abromovich they were Champions League regulars and won a few trophies.
Chelsea have won 4 titles, 6 FA Cups, 4 League Cups, 1 Champions League, 1 Europa League and 1 Cup Winners Cup since we won our last trophy. I just don't see how we can be bigger than a club that's won all that when we've won absolutely nothing in 20 years. Our last period of real success was nearly 30 years ago.
I've got 100 times more respect for the RS for what they did in the 70s and 80s. Pains me to say it but it's true.
