Barclays League Division Two
Saturday, February 11, 1989

Chelsea Swindon Town
G.Durie (5'), J.Gittens (12' o.g.), R.MacLaren (37' o.g.)
HT: 3-2 P.Bodin (40'), J.McLaughlin (??' o.g.)
Attendance:  17,829   Referee:  A. Gunn



 
It's own goal madness at Stamford Bridge - after Gordon Durie's early goal, Jon Gittens nets in the wrong end, before Joe McLaughlin repays the favour to Swindon. Another o.g. from Ross MacLaren puts the Blues 3-1 up though - and despite Paul Bodin's goal before half-time, the second half is goalless, and Chelsea win 3-2.
