Stamford Bridge has played host to several football tournaments over the past two weeks, helping to raise money for worthy causes.
The first event to take place saw the likes of Angus Deaton, Alistair Campbell, DJ Spooney and Ben Shepherd all help raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust.
There were also charity events for Help a London Child and Right To Play before Thomas Cook took control of the hallowed turf for their day of fun.
Thomas Cook Sport gave Chelsea fans from all over the UK a chance to play inside their beloved ground as a prize, as two teams of 11, made up of Thomas Cook employees and competition winners, took to the pitch.
'After 30 years of watching games at Stamford Bridge, I was excited and nervous at the same time about playing here,' said competition winner Kevin Hyatt from Milton Keynes. 'It's an honour to be able to say I've followed in the footsteps of footballing legends and the experience is something I'll never forget.'
Then, yesterday, former Blue Gareth Hall took part in the Oil Aid pitch event, alongside fellow past players Ken Monkou, Keith Dublin and Garry Stanley, as they helped raise funds for Chelsea's community work.
