Blue Days

The fifth and final episode of our podcast documentary series, recounting the story of the dramatic 1996/97 season from the very people who were there, focus on the FA Cup final triumph. It brought to an end many years of frustration and heartache for Chelsea supporters and the whole day, as well as the build-up to it and the fall-out from it, is covered in detail. There are fresh and contemporary words from Ruud Gullit, who recalls 'one of the happiest days of his life', goalscorers Roberto Di Matteo and Eddie Newton, captain Dennis Wise and plenty more, with supporters' excitement at a long sought-after major trophy also captured.
