Chelsea FC Supporters Club: Philly Blues

Pretty solid August for the Blues.

Great atmosphere yesterday at Cavanaugh’s watching Chelsea with a fiesty win over Brighton. We get a few days off now before a huge clash with Arsenal.

Philly is Blue! London is Blue! And the skies are Blue!

Philly Blue and Pilot Trent repping the Blues after landing at London Heathrow this morning. Trent is a regular with us on match days and can often be found at Stamford Bridge supporting Chelsea.

Next up, Premier League home opener against a very hot Brighton squad. Wake up with us and Kick off at 9am on Sunday!

⚽ The Philly Blues Fantasy Premier League is live — and 43 of you are already in.

This is our private mini-league. It runs all season: pick your XI, take on the rest of the group, and settle who's really the best Blue in Philadelphia.

Standings update on the site after every gameweek, so there's no hiding — the table doesn't lie.

Get your team in before the season kicks off. May the best manager win, and may everyone else buy the first round.

The wait is almost over!
1 week until the 26/27 season kicksoff!

Chelsea will travel down the Fulham Rd on Monday afternoon for a West London Derby against Fulham FC, and we'll be at our new home: Cavanaugh's Rittenhouse!

Match kicksoff at 3pm, but feel free to come down early.

May 2021. We were at Cavanaugh's Rittenhouse because we had nowhere else to be — a temporary home in a season nobody planned for.

Three weeks later Chelsea were champions of Europe.

We're going back. Except Cav's has moved too — one block over, brand new building, an AV setup that makes every other room in this city look like 2011.

So neither of us is quite where we were in 2021. Both of us are better for it.

Cav's is our home pub for 2026/27 and beyond, and this time it's by choice. 1921 Sansom St. First one back is Monday 24 August, Fulham away, 3:00 PM ET. Doors from 2:00.

We've also finally got a proper website — matchday info, how membership works, and everything that's changed with tickets this season, all in one place.

Yes, technically it's a different room. We're choosing not to let that bother us.

The Philly Blues are pleased to announce we have a new home starting with the 2026/2027 Chelsea Campaign: Cavanaugh’s Rittenhouse - 1913 Sansom St, in Philadelphia. We will be working closely with the staff and management to continue to bring the best match day atmosphere for Chelsea fans in and around the Philly area, and we are all excited by this new opportunity and partnership.

The decision to move was not taken lightly, and change is never easy. We have met with many of our members over the past few months, took in your concerns, feedback and input, and after many discussions among our leadership team, scouting several locations, and weighing all our options, we believe this provides the best opportunity for our supporters club moving forward.

We want to also thank Tir Na Nog, which has been our home for nearly 2 decades, as well as their staff and management, both current, and those who have gone before. Countless memories were made there for our club: from the lows of bitter defeats, to the ultimate highs of watching our Blues lift many a trophy: including our first ever Champions League victory. We are forever grateful.

We look forward to this new chapter for our Supporters Club, and to making new memories together backing the finest football club in the world, Chelsea Football Club..

Up the Blues, and Keep The Blue Flag Flying High!

Deadline is July 17th!

Memberships.chelseafc.com

Sign up or renew your yearly membership or check your emails from Bharat!

Details below/PLEASE READ:
The Philly Blues are a Platinum Level Supporters Club (one of only 32 world wide); what this means is we enjoy higher priority ticket access to Chelsea matches in a very competitive and high demand field. In order to retain our Platinum Level, we need to maintain a certain number of members with a Ticket access membership every season. If you wish to obtain tickets for a Chelsea match this season, you need to have this membership (Note: you and everyone in your party as well must have membership as well). It is the only way to gain ticket access from Chelsea, as its extremely rare that GA tickets become available for matches.

The yearly ticket membership plan starts at £45.00 ($59) for adults.

Once you renew or sign up, send an email to Bharat with your name and your membership number (this allows us to purchase tickets on your behalf, and giving you better access than on your own, as you will be further down the priority list. Bharat has sent an email out to all our Philly Blues members about renewing or signing up, so you may use that link, or you can use the link in our bio. If you are new or are not on our email list (so do not have Bharat's email), please send us a direct message and we help get you set up.

IMPORTANT: Please note that to be added to the Philly Blues - Chelsea Ticket group, you must be a resident of Philadelphia or the surrounding area. If you are joining from beyond the area, Chelsea will remove you from our roster. So, for first time sign ups, when you email your membership number, please also provide the ZIP/City you used when you purchased your membership.

Please reachout with any questions or if you need any help or more information!

Thank you!
