New Chelsea Fancast

Subject: Chelsea Go Hollywood! – The Chelsea Football FanCast 80

Having travelled out to Los Angeles to join the American Blues watching Chelsea take on Inter Milan, Chidge is joined by some very special guests in a ‘Hollywood’ special Chelsea FanCast from the Fox and Hounds pub in LA.

Filling the legendary boots of Martin, Chel Tel et al we’ve got Michael Roban, the Chelsea FanCast’s official LA correspondent, the legendary ex-pat Chelsea fan Steven Cohen, the man behind the most listened to football podcast in the States – World Soccer Daily - and a man who hates Scousers even more than Chidge and the boys! And last, but by no means least, we have Paul Crowder former Adventures drummer, lifelong Chelsea fan and Shed boy since the seventies and the film director who made Once in a Lifetime – the extraordinary story of the New York Cosmos, Dogtown and Z Boys and the Story of the Who.

On the show the boys discuss the Chelsea v Inter Milan match at the amazing Rose Bowl stadium, and the all important Chelsea love in at Lucky Baldwins before the game. We also get the lowdown from Steven, Michael and Paul on what it’s like to be ex-pat Chelsea fans in LA, as well as our thoughts on the on-going John Terry saga.

Steven tells us how World Soccer Daily became the most successful football radio show in the States and Paul gives us a few impromptu Tales From The Shed and the influence his film about the New York Cosmos had on David Beckham coming over to LA Galaxy!!

“We’d like to show the world the way to Sing” is given a swerve after Chidge’s valiant but ultimately doomed effort to get the Rose Bowl equivalent of the Matthew Harding Upper to sing the Patrick Viera song during the game. But fear not, the boys still manage to get a few songs in and finally Chidge gives a big LA shout to those of you who have left posts on the Facebook site in “You’re on CFFC”.
