Stamford Chidge interviews Paul Canoville, Chelsea's first black player and a skilful winger in his day, forever remembered for that game against Sheffield Wednesday.Paul Canoville was Chelsea's first black player and his story is incredible. Subjected to racist abuse on the terraces, Paul had to show huge strength of character and dignity to win over too many of his own supporters.Highlights of Paul's all too brief Chelsea career included a hat-trick against Swansea, but he played a crucial part in the legendary 4-4 draw away to Sheffield Wednesday in the Milk Cup in 1985, coming on as a second half substitute with Chelsea 3-0 down. Paul scored twice, his first after just eleven seconds, as Chelsea salvaged a remarkable draw.In arguably one of his most forthright, honest and moving interviews yet, Paul talks about his time as one of John Neal's great side; the players, the matches and the goals and his struggles with racism, drug addiction and homelessness after football.

It will be effective immediately. The city’s sweeping vaccine mandate for workers will still apply to people with other types of jobs, including government employees.

That is about three miles from the Alamodome, where Nova won the title in 2018. In the other South Region semifinal, top seed Arizona takes on Houston. The Cougars are playing only a three-hour drive from home. NCAA – Study: Michigan, Kentucky top academics-based NCAA brackets Michigan and Kentucky stood out in a study examining the men’s and women’s NCAA Tournament brackets based on graduation rates, academic success and diversity in the head coaching ranks. The Wolverines were the overall No. 1 seed as the national champion for a third straight year in the men’s field according to the study released Wednesday by The Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport (TIDES) at Central Florida. The Wildcats held the overall No. 1 seed as the women’s champion. Teams that performed well and are still in the tournaments are the Michigan and North Carolina men, along with the Notre Dame women.

It has been three years since family patriarch Joe Ricketts apologized after online media outlet Splinter News published emails featuring him making Islamophobic comments, such as “Islam is a cult and not a religion.” Paul Canoville, Chelsea’s first Black player, tweeted “a big fat anti racism NO to the Ricketts bid.” The Ricketts family says it “rejects any form of hate in the strongest possible terms.” MLB – Lynn ready if needed to start on opening day for White Sox Lance Lynn says he’s not particularly concerned about who starts on opening day for the Chicago White Sox. Manager Tony La Russa hasn’t announced whether Lynn or Lucas Giolito will get the ball when the White Sox face Detroit on April 8. Lynn says “it’s awesome” that the White Sox have multiple potential opening day starters. Lynn finished third in the American League Cy Young Award voting last season. He made his spring debut on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers. WNBA – Griner seen by US consulate in Russian detention facility The U.S. State Department says a U.S. Embassy official has visited with WNBA star Brittney Griner, who remains detained near Moscow, to check on her condition. State Department spokesperson Ned Price told CNN the official found Griner “to be in good condition.” Price did not identify the official who had been granted consular access to Griner, something the United States had been demanding. Griner was detained after arriving at a Moscow airport, reportedly in mid-February, after Russian authorities said a search of her luggage revealed vape cartridges that allegedly contained oil derived from cannabis, which could carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. COVID – New York City to let unvaccinated athletes play home games New York city’s mayor will announce Thursday that he’s exempting athletes and performers from the city’s vaccine mandate for private workers. The move will allow Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving to play home games, and let unvaccinated baseball players take the field when their season begins. According to a person familiar with the upcoming announcement who was not authorized to discuss it publicly, Mayor Eric Adams will make the announcement Thursday morning. It will be effective immediately. The city’s sweeping vaccine mandate for workers will still apply to people with other types of jobs, including government employees. NFL – Lions add ex-Chiefs CB Mike Hughes, ex-Ravens LB Chris Board The Detroit Lions have addressed pressing needs, signing cornerback Mike Hughes and linebacker Chris Board. Detroit announced the moves Wednesday, adding depth where it is needed on defense. Hughes started in five of 17 games last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. He had 45 tackles, one interception, forced four fumble and returned a fumble for a score in 2021. Board started in two of 63 games over the last four years with the Baltimore Ravens. He had 59 tackles, 2 1/2 sacks, forced two fumbles and was a key contributor on special teams. NFL – Michaels, Herbstreit to call Prime Video’s NFL package Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit will be the announcing team when Prime Video takes over “Thursday Night Football” in September. Michaels moves to Prime from NBC. His contract with NBC ended last month after he was in the booth for his 11th Super Bowl. Herbstreit will remain ESPN’s lead college football analyst and do NFL games for Prime. ESPN also announced that Herbstreit had signed a multiyear extension. Tennis – That’ll do: Barty signs off on tennis at 25, ranked No. 1 Ash Barty signaled the end of the photo opportunities at her retirement news conference in her typically low-fuss, matter-of-fact style: “Righto, that’ll do.” Barty surprised almost everyone in tennis when she announced her retirement at age 25 in a video posted to social media on Wednesday. She’s spent the last two years atop the women’s tennis rankings and won two of the last three Grand Slam singles titles. A day later she confirmed she’d set a date to get married but wasn’t ready to make it public. For all other details about her future plans, Barty says “You’ll have to wait and see. Be patient.” Russia/Ukraine – Russian Olympians face backlash after Vladimir Putin rally Russian Olympic athletes who participated in a rally supporting President Vladimir Putin and the invasion of Ukraine are facing a backlash. They gathered on stage at the Luzhniki Stadium on Friday as part of the concert and entertainment program around Putin’s speech. Olympic champion Evgeny Rylov is under investigation from the governing body of swimming. Swimwear manufacturer Speedo has dropped Rylov for his involvement in the pro-Putin rally. It says the remainder of Rylov’s sponsorship fee will be donated to the United Nations agency caring for refugees.

Continuing our series '50 Years of Chelsea' looking back, season by season, from the FA Cup winning 1970 season to present day; Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Mark Meehan, author of 'Eddie Mac' and formerly editor of the 'Chelsea Independent' fanzine.After a disappointing mid-table finish to the previous season, Chelsea supporter's hopes were not high, but little did they know what was in store for the 1987-88 season. If seeing Nigel Spackman and David Speedie leave wasn't bad enough, the performances on the pitch were even worse. Appalling form and injuries to key players saw Chelsea sleep walk toward relegation. But surely they were too good to go down?Unfortunately, even after the sacking of John Hollins and more important Ernie Walley, Bobby Campbell's Chelsea finished in 18th which meant they had to play-off to remain in Division One. A hugely controversial 1-0 win in the home leg against Middlesbrough was not enough to overturn a 2-0 deficit from the 1st leg and the unthinkable happened. Chelsea would be the 'Boys in Blue in Division Two' once again.Never a dull moment at Chelsea in a season enthusiastically remembered by Chidge, Jonathan and Mark and embellished with clips from the 'Chelsea Special' interviews with Colin Pates, John Bumstead, Kerry Dixon and Paul Canoville.

Continuing our series '50 Years of Chelsea' looking back, season by season, from the FA Cup winning 1970 season to present day; Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd, Tony Glover and Dan Silver to look back at the 1986-87 season.Having finished 6th in the previous 2 seasons in Division One, hopes were high for the new season. The squad had been strengthened with Steve Wicks, Roy Wegerle and Gordon Durie but changes were a foot and the regime of John Hollins and Ernie Walley was to lead to a fractious and ultimately disappointing season featuring a combination of baffling team selection and formations, poor man management, poor treatment of senior players and dispensing with talented youngsters. For the first half of the season, Chelsea looked strong candidates for relegation only to pick up their form in the New Year, even though most of the team had handed in transfer requests.Finishing in 14th seemed to be the least of Chelsea's problems as Nigel Spackman had already been ushered out of the door and the fear was that he would be followed by many other players. Never a dull moment at Chelsea in a season enthusiastically remembered by Chidge, Jonathan, Tony and Dan and embellished with clips from the 'Chelsea Special' interviews with Kerry Dixon and Paul Canoville.

Continuing our series '50 Years of Chelsea' looking back, season by season, from the FA Cup winning 1970 season to present day; Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Dan Silver to look back at the 1985-86 season.Chelsea start the 1985-86 season, having finished 6th in Division One, under new management with John Hollins replacing the much loved John Neal. And they pretty much pick up where they left off and spend most of the season challenging at the top of the table.For many highlight was the Full Members Cup final win against Man City in March in a nerve tingling 5-4 win. While universally derided as a mickey mouse cup, Chelsea fans treated it as a day out at Wembley and a bona fide cup, the club's first trophy since 1971. But shortly after, Chelsea came crashing down as they so often do, as terrible 6-0 and 4-0 defeats to QPR and West Ham put paid to their title challenge. A question of close, but not close enough as Chelsea finally finish in 6th position for the second year running.Either way, it was another memorable season enthusiastically remembered by Chidge, Jonathan and Dan and embellished with clips from the 'Chelsea Special' interviews with the players who played in these iconic games: Colin Pates, Kerry Dixon, Paul Canoville and John Bumstead.

It all kicks off away at Highbury to Arsenal on 24th August in one of the most iconic Chelsea matches of all time; complete with Kerry Dixon's favourite goal.Chelsea establish themselves as a Division One team this season, capable of giving anyone a run for their money. Along the way, they have a decent run in the Milk Cup, including the trilogy against Sheffield Wednesday and one of the most memorable matches in Chelsea's history and one of the most controversial in the two-legged semi-final against Sunderland.Kerry Dixon scoring 36 goals; Pat Nevin dazzling from the wing; David Speedie leaping like a salmon; Paul Canoville scoring vital goals; Colin Pates and Joe McLaughlin calmness personified at the back and Eddie Niedzwiecki safe as houses in goal - all draped in one of the most iconic Chelsea kits of all time - the blue striped Le Coq Sportif kit.A truly memorable season relived by the blokes who were there and then wrote about it, embellished with clips from the 'Chelsea Special' interviews with the players who played in these iconic games: Colin Pates, Kerry Dixon, Paul Canoville and John Bumstead.

This week on Dynamo's Dozen I speak with Chelsea Football Club legend Paul Canoville for a very in debt interview on his playing days, the racist abuse he received from not only rival fans, but also his OWN fans. Paul talks about how he overcame adversity time and time again and still continues to battle illness to this day. This one is for everyone. #DynamosDozen #podcast #IanDynamoKelly #PaulCanoville #Paulcanovillefoundation #chelseafootballclub --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ian-kelly3/message

In association with chelseafan12.com  Memorabilia - Shop - News - Video - Fanzone THE HOME OF THE 12TH MAN! - "THE FAN" Follow ChelseaFan12 on twitter: @Fan12Chelsea Stamford Chidge & Chelsea Legend, Kerry Dixon look back at Chelsea's wins against Leicester and Qarabag this week and look forward to the Arsenal match this Sunday. Kerry heaps praise on Morata who scored his third goal of the season, all from headers, last week against Leicester. It looks like he might just be the real deal. Talking about the  Qarabag game everyone loved the Zappacosta goal but was it a cross or a shot? Christensen impressed but does Batshuayi have work to do in spite of scoring? Good to see Chelsea's Champions' League campaign get off to a good start, especially with Roma and Atletico Madrid drawing. Looking ahead to the Arsenal match do lessons need to be learned from our recent defeats against them and will it affect Conte's game-plan? Will Hazard start against Arsenal and if not will we have enough to beat the Gunners without him? Can Chelsea exploit Arsenal's weakness' in midfield and defence whilst keeping  their attacking threat at bay? We learned this week that Paul Canoville who played in the same Chelsea team as Kerry in the 1980's is currently recovering in intensive care after a major surgery. His friends have launched a GoFundMe campaign to support him in his recovery as he may not be back on his feet for a while. You can donate here: https://www.gofundme.com/paul-canoville-get-well-fund Please help out if you can and if you want to send Paul a message you can send it to us and we’ll pass it on or of course you can send him a message via twitter or facebook.
