Chelsea in Magazines - Soccer Star 07-10-1961

 1961 and Chelsea feature in the pages of Soccer Star magazine (not to be confused with the SoccerStars magazine of the 90's which was a poster magazine for younger readers).

Chelsea's second highest scorer Bobby Tambling scores at Villa Park but its not enough to stop Chelsea losing 3-1 to Aston Villa.

As well as this Chelsea had also taken a big defeat to Blackpool:

This bad form would eventually see Chelsea relegated at the end of the season but the blooding in of young talents Tambling, Peter Bonetti, Ron Harris, Terry Venables and Barry Bridges would pay off in the long term.
