‘This Tottenham-Chelsea thing came about in the sixties,’ Chelsea’s official historian Rick Glanvill tells FFT.
‘Firstly we lost a number of players to them – Jimmy Greaves, Terry Venables and Bobby Smith – and then mid-decade we seemed to just meet each other again and again. Players started to dislike each other, the supporters would get into fights a lot more and it reached a crescendo in the 1967 FA Cup Final. There were fights all over the place; it was absolute carnage.’
