I first started going to Chelsea games in the mid-Nineties when I lived off the North End Road, ten minutes' walk from Stamford Bridge.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I had a hard time at Chelsea mainly because I was injured much of the time. Every time I recovered from one injury I seemed to get a new one and it set me back again.
I love being a regular on 'Chelsea Lately!'
I really want to play in Chelsea.
My dad was an Arsenal supporter and he used to take me there, but I've always been Chelsea.
I spent most of my youth in Manchester, in clubs and football grounds and the Manchester Apollo.
I grew up in London. My parents and I lived in West Norwood, then we moved to Norbury, and I went to the Brit School. I'm a South London girl at heart.
I didn't want to go to Chelsea, because I wanted to play the Champions League and they were sixth in the league.
I moved to Kentish Town from Chelsea in 1983, partly because I had a lot of friends already living in the area and because it took an hour off the journey to my house in Suffolk. It has a villagey feel, and it's still a very mixed community, which I like.
When I came down south, I went to one of the early Wigan Challenge Cup victories at Wembley, and I was totally hooked from then.
I played in the Premier League for Blackpool and earned the right to go to a club like Liverpool.
