The year 2005 saw us reach the major milestone of 100 years-old. What better way was there to mark the centenary than by becoming champions of England for the second time. Chelsea's home stadium is called Stamford Bridge and has a history as varied and unique as the team itself. Stamford Bridge is one of the most famous grounds in the country and has a history as long and varied as the team itself. Since being built in 1876 for athletics, as well as becoming the home of the newly formed Chelsea Football Club in 1905, it has hosted FA Cup Finals, motorbike and greyhound racing, American football and even cricket! The current capacity stands at 42,055 and the ground has gone from being a huge oval shape to four sides close to the pitch. There is no part of the current stadium that hasn't changed with only the old Shed wall on the southern boundary of the site remaining of the original stadium. It has come a long, long way since the original athletics venue!
