Wrong season

[edit]

The report on Division I says Chelsea secured Danny Blanchflower's first win on 19th January 1980 when they beat Man City away. However, we (Chelsea) were in Division II under Geoff Hurst in 79/80. Our win at City under Danny came in Div 1 on 20th January 1979 in the 78/79 season. The report also says 35 Games were called off that day. This needs to be researched as I believe the 79/80 winter was fairly warm compared to the 78/79 winter when many games were postponed. I remember 78/79 as Chelsea only played 2 league games in 55 days (Jan/Feb). I suggest somebody checks the facts in this article. My source for my info is "I was there". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.234.37.200 (talk) 06:54, 5 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
