Shevchenkoish Debut for Chelsea's YouTube Channel
Filed in archive Video by daryl on February 17, 2007
I was excited about Chelsea's partnership with YouTube, thinking it would mean free, legal access to footy highlights for all. Seems I was wrong.
So far YouTube's Chelsea channel has a load of videos with a vaguely attractive girl promising this is "your channel", a few jokes from the physio and... not much else.
Will there be goals and highlights made available for all to see? Or is this going to be the usual case of crap stuff for free, good stuff after you give us some cash. Unless they start showing some goals, then it's nothing more than one long promo for ChelseaTV and bit like getting a DVD with just a "making of" and no film.
Either way, the proper, non-commercial YouTubers are still making video freely available for all. Clips from Chelsea's 4-0 FA Cup win over Norwich
City weren't to be found at www.youtube.com/chelseafc but a quick search elsewhere revealed SWP's opener, all the goals from that game, first half highlights or even the entire game broken into nine ten minute segments.
Of course by the time you click those links the content will have been forcibly removed, but unless Chelsea offer us a viable alternative they're wasting their time.
