His 9ct gold championship plaque, alongside a celebration menu card signed by Bobby Charlton, has remained with the Hughes family ever since. It now heads to auction as Lot 19.

Can always rely on Chelsea fans. ‘Sign on’ is an idiotic football chant. To think that given the cost of tickets for footy in this country, there would be many unemployed in the ground is beyond nonsensical. But then originality was never their strong point. Just like penalties.

Genuinely @MKosylo is probably one of our most important players
Few years ago some people thought he wasn't up to it. How wrong they were
The guy is unbelievable. An engine. That a league club hasn't picked him up is such a relief. What a team, keep it going 👏
