Abramovich removed Two Chelsea heroes names from Stamford Bridge

According to Tribal Football, Chelsea have informed David Speedie and Nigel Spackman their names are being removed from two entrances at Stamford Bridge.

Former owner Ken Bates decided to name the entrances after ex-Blues stars Nigel Spackman and David Speedie.

Both played for the club during the 1980s, helping them to win the Second Division in 1984.

They were the only two entrances in the stadium named after former players and the decision has now been made to replace the names with directional and way-finding signage.

The Daily Mail report Chelsea sent both players a letter informing them of their decision to remove the signs.
