What To Get A Chelsea Fan For Christmas – Part Two
By Susan Reck
I have once again been asked by the fine blog editor here to provide you with the comprehensive and definitive shopping list for the Chelsea fan in your life. If you are the Chelsea fan in your life, please feel free to link this post to everyone you know, or casually print it out and leave it lying about the house, in hopes that your clueless loved ones will get the hint and quit buying you Manchester United kits because “it’s all football, right?”
Here is the second part of my piece a little zany than the last
(All products available on the Chelsea UK Online Megastore as of the time of the posting of this blog; writer can not assume responsibility for the lameness of the Chelsea USA site which never has the cool stuff, ie, the Petr Cech shirt I had to wait THREE MONTHS to order. Ahem)
Chelsea Gnome
Product Code: 37891 + More about this product
Price: £14.99
Oh yes, the gnome is still available. If you don’t have one yet, THIS IS THE YEAR. Who doesn’t like a little cheerful gnome all kitted out for in Chelsea blue? Better still, these little guys make the neighbors crazy, and who doesn’t like the idea of annoying the b*stard next door who mows his grass during EVERY CHELSEA MATCH. Or is that just me? You know you want one. Buy it.
Chelsea Bathroom Set
Product Code: 83205
Price: £9.99
Quite frankly, this disturbs me a little. Do not buy me one. Do not buy anyone one. Why is the name of all that is holy would you want to wash your nether regions with Stamford the Lion? To quote Drogs, it is a f*cking disgrace.
Chelsea Double winners Photo T-Shirt – White
Product Code: 81169
Price: £12.99
This is very awesome. I want one. Buy me one. Now.
Chelsea Romper and Hat – Reflex Blue – Baby
Product Code: 75742
Price: £9.99
Alright, can we have a collective “aw” for this? Seriously. This almost makes me want to have a baby so that I can dress the kid in this. This is def one to put on the list for the abused child of any non-Chelsea fans you may have on your list (though why you would be buying gifts for someone who is not a Chelsea fan is beyond me) Indoctrinate them young, I say.
Chelsea Pooping Reindeer
Product Code: 75593
Price: £1.99
This one wins the annual prize for “did they really put a Chelsea badge on this?” Indeed they did. Little Blitzen here will poop out candies for your enjoyment. Tacky to say the least. However, I think this would be a much more excellent toy if it pooped out little United or Liverpool kits. That would be epic.
Chelsea Oyster Card – Season Ticket Wallet
Product Code: 83992
Price: £2.99
And finally, a little practical something to stuff in a stocking. As much as I love all my Chelsea things (and they are numerous) I do really enjoy the small things that you can bring out in daily life “Oh yes, I am a Chelsea fan”. Not that it always works (locals think my blue and white scarf is for the Indianapolis Colts)
