Chelsea find silver lining in Blackburn setback: They did not lose in dodgy shirts!

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Mon, 03/22/2010 - 09:28

Chelsea fans can gain a lift from their disappointing 1-1 draw at Blackburn Rovers yesterday.

One bright point for Carlo Ancelotti's team was the fact this was the first time Chelsea have worn their navy away kit in a competitive fixture - and not lost.

The hooped shirts have been cursed after four defeats out of four - to Aston Villa, Wigan, Blackburn in the Carling Cup and Manchester City.

Yesterday was the first time they have dared to don the hoodoo strip since. Maybe a point was not so bad after all.

Chelsea's cant play the gud football in their navy dodgy shirt. We did lost to MANU in Champions League Final while we were playing using that same kit. I prefer not to use that kit cuz its the unluckiest kit for the Chelsea Team and 1 point shared in between Rovers is the 1st point gained using that dodgy shirt.

Pity as this away kit and last year's yellow ones were the best for a long time.

You mean: they did not win in dodgy shirts. Hope they keep wearing them for all their away games.
