the beginning
The first photo of a team in 1905
In 1904, Gus Mears acquired Stamford Bridge Sports Ground and resolved to convert it into a soccer field. He offered to rent him to Fulham, but his offer was rejected, so he chose to establish his own team to use the stadium. Since the region contained a club named Fulham, it was decided to name the new team after Chelsea after other names were suggested such as Stamford Bridge, London Club and Kensington Club. Chelsea was founded on the 10th of March 1905 at The Racing Sun Pub (now The Butcher Hook) across from the main entrance to present-day Fulham Road. Immediately after that, he was selected to participate in the Football League.
The team ascended to the First Division in its second season, and swung between the first and second divisions during its first years. He reached the FA Cup final in 1915, losing to Sheffield United at Old Trafford, and finished the 1920 season in third place in the First Division, which was the team's best season until that time. Chelsea drew crowds and gained a reputation for buying top players, but success eluded them in the interwar period.
Achievements start
Former Arsenal and England striker Ted Drake was appointed manager of Chelsea in 1952 and has continued to modernize the team. He removed the club's previous crest, developed a youth training and preparation system, rebuilt the team by making smart deals from the lower tiers and amateur leagues, and led Chelsea to its first success at the tournament level, the League Championship in the 1954-55 season. The following season, UEFA established the Champions League but Chelsea were persuaded to withdraw from the competition before it began after objections from the Football League and the FA. Chelsea failed to maintain this success and spent the rest of the 1950s mid-ranking. Drake left the team in 1961 and was replaced by former coach and player Tommy Docherty.
Docherty built a new team of talented players emerging from the youth team, and Chelsea competed for several championships during the 1960s. The team was on its way to achieving a triple: the League, the League Cup, and the FA Cup by reaching the final stages in the 1964-1965 season, winning the League Cup, but it failed to achieve the other two championship titles. Chelsea have been defeated in three seasons in the semi-finals of three major tournaments, as well as the runner-up title in the FA Cup. He also won the FA Cup in 1970 under the leadership of Dave Sexton, Docherty's successor, after defeating Leeds United 2-1 in the final. In the following season, the team achieved its first European success by winning the European Cup Winners' Cup after defeating Real Madrid in the second leg of the final in Athens.
landing period
The end of the seventies and the beginning of the eighties were a difficult period for Chelsea FC. The eagerness to develop Stamford Bridge threatened the team's financial stability, and the club sold its star players and was relegated to the Second Division. The club suffered even more problems caused by a fanatical element known as sports fanaticism that troubled the team during this decade. In 1981 Chelsea hit rock bottom and businessman Ken Bates bought him for £1 even though the team had lost ownership of Stamford Bridge to the developers and thus land. On the field, the team came close
