We have had lots of ex players from Chelsea going back many years.
in my opinion most have been bad decisions ,but in fairness some have worked out quite well.
Of them all on the the playing side only Terry Eyebrows John Hollins ,Paul Furlong ,Steve Wicks and John Spencer ( for one season ) have been a success for me.
When I hear we are linked to ex players of theirs is it fair ,like me to critique them more than other clubs players.

Didn;t that Smythe or whatever his name was, young player on loan, had like a superb time with us and after that he was never heard from again? |

For some reason it's like he never played as well anymore as he did for us though. The opposite of most players actually who choose us to have their worst periods  |

Sparx is referring to players that came FROM Chelsea. Stein only joined them after he left us. However we did buy him from Luton you'll be pleased to hear! :-) |

Quite a lot mentioned were loans that did not result in transfers.
Would probably , grudgingly admit that we have done very well from them lot.
