Not content with pinching our players, coaches, staff I see The Chels are sporting hyperturq* this afternoon at Bournemouth.
*I recognise they did have an away kit or two in this shade in the 80s
Having spent some time in the region...
1 - yep - think I can get five or six - wasn't aware of Gerrard's new team
