Inhaltsangabe

The revolving door to the Chelsea manager's office has seen more comings and goings than any other major football club down the years with over 30 incumbents since Ted Drake won the club's first major trophy in 1955. By unexpectedly winning that First Division title Chelsea took a huge leap forward and confirmed their arrival as a big club with title challenges and trophies into the early 1970s and, following a miserable period in the 70s and 80s, finally came of age in the Premier League era breaking their long wait for a trophy under Ruud Gullit before Roman Abramovich arrived to make the club the richest in the world. They have been top dogs in London for sometime - a music hall joke no longer!Award-winning former Daily Mirror Chief Football writer Harry Harris has been watching the Blues at close quarters for over 50 years and has got to know some of the larger than life personalities who have hired and fired the majority of those 30 odd managers. Contributions from Chelsea legends of the past help tell the tale of every boss to have managed the Blues since Ted Drake, ending with current incumbent Frank Lampard who might just be the first Chelsea boss of all time who is deemed unsackable!
