Revd '''Richard William Enraght''' (1837 - 1898) was an Irish born [[Church of England]] [[clergyman]] of the late [[nineteenth century]]. He was heavly influenced by the [[Tractarians]] and the [[Oxford Movement]] and is amongst the number of priests commonly called “Second Generation” [[Anglo-Catholics]].

'''Chelsea Football Club''' (also known as '''The Blues''' or previously '''The Pensioners''') are an [[England|English]] professional [[football (soccer)|football]] [[football team|club]] based in west [[London]]. Founded in 1905, they play in the [[Premier League]] and have spent most of their history in the top tier in [[Football in England|English football]]. They have had two broad periods of success, one during the [[1960s]] and early [[1970s]], and the second from the late 1990s to the present day. Chelsea have won three league titles, four [[FA Cup]]s, four [[Football League Cup|League Cup]]s and two [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup]]s.<ref>{{cite web |

In 1871, after previously serving as a [[Curate]] to Fr Arthur Wagner the Vicar of [[Church of St. Paul, Brighton |St. Paul's Church]] in [[Brighton]], Revd Richard William Enraght [[Society of the Holy Cross|SSC]] began his ministry at [http://www.stnicolas.standrewportslade.btinternet.co.uk St. Andrew Church Portslade by Sea]. He was appointed to the new [[Parish]] of St Andrew’s Portslade by Sea by the [[Vicar]] of St Nicolas Church Portslade who at that time held the [[patronage]] of St Andrews. Fr Enraght’s appointment was not without controversy. There was an unsuccessful appeal to the [[Bishop of Chichester]] by the Vicar of the neighbouring Parish of [[Southwick, West Sussex | Southwick]] who questioned the authority of the Vicar of Portslade to make the appointment of a priest to this new Parish of St Andrew Church Portslade by Sea.

==History==
Fr Enraght was very active in his defence of [[Ritualism]] in published pamphlets and letters to the ''The Brighton Gazette'' promoting adherence to the English Catholic Tradition within [[The Church of England]]. As Curate in Charge of Portslade by Sea, Fr. Enraght published the [[pamphlets]] "Catholic Worship" which promoted the importance and necessity of ritual in worship and the "The [[Real Presence]] and [[New Testament|Holy Scripture]]" of which the ''Church Times'' described as ''"A masterly exposition of the texts which more directly relate to the Blessed [[Eucharist]]"''

[[Image: Chelsea_Team_1905.jpg|right|thumb|The first Chelsea team in September 1905.|250 px]]
Chelsea were founded on [[March 14]], [[1905]] at The Rising Sun pub (now The Butcher's Hook), opposite the present-day main entrance to the ground on [[Fulham Road]], and were elected to the Football League shortly afterwards. The club's early years saw little success; the closest they came to winning a major trophy was reaching the [[FA Cup]] final in 1915, where they lost to [[Sheffield United F.C.|Sheffield United]]. Chelsea gained a reputation for signing big-name players<ref name="glanville">{{cite news |

Former [[England national football team|England]] centre-forward [[Ted Drake]] became manager in 1952 and proceeded to modernise the club. He removed the club's [[Chelsea pensioner]] crest, improved the youth set-up and training regime, rebuilt the side, and led Chelsea to their first major trophy success – the League championship – in [[1954-55 in English football|1954–55]]. The following season saw [[UEFA]] create the [[UEFA Champions League|European Champions' Cup]], but after objections from [[The Football League]] and the [[The Football Association|FA]] Chelsea were persuaded to withdraw from the competition before it started.<ref>{{cite news |
These writings put him on a collision course with the pro [[Public Worship Regulation Act |PWR. Act]] local newspaper the ''Brighton Gazette'' who were sensitive to any hint of ritualism in worship. From the pages of the same newspaper Fr Enraght was accused of [[Puseyism]] (used here as a term of abuse) and of trying to turn the local St Nicolas Church School in Portslade into a [[Puseyite]] school. The letter column of the ''Brighton Gazette'' carried this personal attack on Fr Enraght made by a Mr Gossett, a Portslade anti-ritualist, "The Revd Mr.Enraght, whose doctrines, if they were not doctrines of the Church of Rome, he (Mr.Gossett) was ignorant to what Church they belonged"

The 1960s saw the emergence of a talented young Chelsea side under manager [[Tommy Docherty]]. They challenged for honours throughout the decade, and endured several near-misses. They were on course for a treble of League, FA Cup and [[Football League Cup|League Cup]] going into the final stages of the [[1964-65 in English football|1964-65]] season, winning the League Cup but faltering late on in the other two.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill, Rick | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography - The Definitive Story of the First 100 Years| publisher=Headline Book Publishing Ltd| year=2006| id=ISBN 0-7553-1466-2 | pages=p. 196}}</ref> In three seasons the side were beaten in three major semi-finals and were FA Cup runners-up. In 1970 Chelsea were FA Cup winners, beating [[Leeds United A.F.C.|Leeds United]] 2–1 in a [[FA Cup Final 1970|final replay]]. Chelsea took their first European honour, a [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup]] triumph, the following year, with another replayed win, this time over [[Real Madrid]] in [[Athens]].
In the 1870s, Fr. Enraght was an officer of the Brighton Branch of the [[Society of the Holy Cross]], the Branch was spoken of by its national officers, “as one of the most promising and was carrying on a vigorous campaign in Brighton”. While living in [[Brighton]] and [[Portslade]], Fr Enraght served as the Organising Secretary for the National Association for the Promotion of Freedom of Worship, and campaigned for the abolition of "pew-rents"

The late 1970s and the 1980s were a turbulent period for Chelsea. An ambitious redevelopment of Stamford Bridge threatened the financial stability of the club,<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 84-87}}</ref> star players were sold and the team were relegated. Further problems were caused by a notorious [[hooliganism|hooligan]] element among the support, which was to plague the club throughout the decade.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 143-157}}</ref> Chelsea were, at the nadir of their fortunes, acquired by [[Ken Bates]] for the nominal sum of £1, although by now the Stamford Bridge freehold had been sold to property developers, meaning the club faced losing their home.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 89-90}}</ref> On the pitch, the team had fared little better, coming close to relegation to the [[Football League Third Division|Third Division]] for the first time, but in 1983 manager [[John Neal (footballer)|John Neal]] put together an impressive new team for minimal outlay. Chelsea won the [[Football League Second Division|Second Division]] title in [[1983-84 in English football|1983–84]] and established themselves in the top division, before being relegated again in 1988. The club bounced back immediately by winning the Second Division championship in [[1988-89 in English football|1988-89]].
 
After a long-running legal battle, Bates reunited the stadium freehold with the club in 1992 by doing a deal with the banks of the property developers, who had been bankrupted by a market crash.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 90-91}}</ref> Chelsea's form in the new [[Premier League]] was unconvincing, although they did reach the FA Cup final in [[FA Cup Final 1994|1994]]. It was not until the appointment of former [[European Footballer of the Year]] [[Ruud Gullit]] as [[player-manager]] in 1996 that their fortunes changed. He added several top-class international players to the side, particularly [[Gianfranco Zola]], as the club won the [[FA Cup]] in [[FA Cup Final 1997|1997]] and established themselves as one of England's top sides again. Gullit was replaced by [[Gianluca Vialli]], who led the team to victory in the [[Football League Cup Final 1998|League Cup]] and the [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup 1997-98|Cup Winners' Cup]] in 1998, the FA Cup in [[FA Cup Final 2000|2000]] and the [[UEFA Champions League]] quarter-finals in 2000. Vialli was sacked in favour of another Italian, [[Claudio Ranieri]], who guided Chelsea to the 2002 [[FA Cup]] final and Champions League qualification in [[2002-03 in English football|2002–03]].
===The atmosphere in [[Brighton]]===
The atmosphere in [[Brighton]], created by the local press was very hostile to High Churchman, The Brighton Gazette was highly vitriolic towards any clergy that adhered to the English Catholic Tradition. An example of their reporting, Thursday 21st May 1874:
 
In June 2003, Bates sold Chelsea to [[Russia|Russian]] billionaire [[Roman Abramovich]] for £140 million, completing what was then the biggest-ever sale of an English football club.<ref name="takeover"/> Owing to Abramovich's Russian heritage, the club were soon popularly dubbed "Chelski" in the British media.<ref>{{cite news |

==Stamford Bridge==
Fr. [[John Purchas]] of St James Church Brighton was prosecuted under this act for using [[vestments]] and the eastward position. The case took three years to conclude and resulted in the Church of England paying £7,661 in costs (Fr Purchas had placed his property in his wife's name so unable to pay the costs). To appreciate the scale of these costs, a house in [[Portslade]] could be rented for £13 a year in 1874. Fr. Purchas was removed from his Parish and some commentators believe his persecution led to his early death.
[[Image: Chelsea_bt_W_Brom_1905.jpg |right|frame|Chelsea ''vs.'' [[West Bromwich Albion F.C.|West Bromwich Albion]] at Stamford Bridge on [[September 23]] [[1905]]; Chelsea won 1-0.]]
{{details|Stamford Bridge (stadium)}}
 
Chelsea have only ever had one home ground, Stamford Bridge, where they have played since foundation. It was officially opened on [[28 April]] [[1877]]. For the first 28 years of its existence it was used almost exclusively by the London Athletics Club as an arena for [[athletics (track and field)|athletics]] meetings and not at all for football.
It must be added that Fr Wagner was the leading light of the Catholic Revival in Brighton with his prolific church building and generous charitable works for the poor, all at his own expense. Fr Wagner, Fr Purchas, Fr Enraght and the many other Brighton Anglo-Catholic priests all carried out their ministries to large sympathetic congregations. The local press spoke only for a minority in their campaign to use the Public Worship Regulation Act to rid ritualism from the churches of Brighton. From the ''Brighton Gazettes'' editorial for the 23rd April 1874 on the topic of the [[Public Worship Regulation Act]], quote, ''"Let us have the law obeyed and let there be an easy mode of redress from offending clergyman"''
In 1904 the ground was acquired by businessman [[Gus Mears]] and his brother, J T Mears, who had previously acquired additional land (formerly a large [[market garden]]) with the aim of staging football matches on the now 12.5 acre (51,000 m²) site.<ref name="stadium">{{cite web |

Stamford Bridge was designed for the Mears family by the noted football architect [[Archibald Leitch]].<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 69-71}}</ref> They offered the stadium to [[Fulham F.C.|Fulham Football Club]], but the offer was turned down. As a consequence, the owners decided to form their own football club to occupy their new ground. Most football clubs were founded first, and then sought grounds in which to play, but Chelsea were founded for Stamford Bridge. Since there was already a football club named Fulham in the borough, the founders decided to adopt the name of the adjacent borough of Chelsea for the new club, having rejected names such as ''Kensington FC'', ''Stamford Bridge FC'' and ''London FC''.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=p. 55}}</ref>
===The situation in Bordesley, Birmingham and London===
The situation in [[Bordesley, West Midlands]] in 1865 was as follows, Reverend James Pollock was invited by Dr. Oldknow, the well-known [[Tractarian]] Vicar of Holy Trinity, Bordesley, to start a Mission among the newcomers in a part of his parish. Eventually, to ensure continuity of the Mission it was necessary to set up a separate District for St Alban’s, and until that was done James Pollock could only officiate as a curate of Holy Trinity. Eventually the new District of St Alban the Martyr was created by Order in Council in 1871. Fr Enraght was appointed Vicar of Holy Trinity in 1874. The two parishes enjoyed a close connection both geographically and through the [[High Church]] Tradition and friendship of both priests, Fr. Pollock and Fr. Enraght, who were both graduates of [[Trinity College, Dublin]].
 
Starting with an open bowl-like design and one covered terrace, Stamford Bridge had an original capacity of around 100,000.<ref name="stadium">{{cite web |
[[Birmingham]] was the equal to Brighton in hostilities to High Church Anglicans from the [[Church Association]], a radical group of Protestants, who had unlimited funds to mount prosecutions. The [[Church Association]] sort to separate Priests from their congregations by registering its members in these parishes, so as to become “aggrieved parishioners” and therefore the clergy could be prosecuted under the new PWR Act. In one parish in the north of England they resorted to bribing parishioners to speak out against their priest.

Work began on the East Stand in the early 1970s but the cost almost brought the club to its knees, and the [[Fee simple|freehold]] was sold to [[Real estate developer|property developers]]. Following a long legal battle, it was not until the mid-1990s that Chelsea's future at the stadium was secured and renovation work resumed.<ref name="stadium">When Stamford Bridge was nearly no more</ref> The north, west and southern parts of the ground were converted into all-seater stands and moved closer to the pitch, a process completed by 2001.
 
The Stamford Bridge [[Football pitch|pitch]], the freehold, the turnstiles and Chelsea's [[naming rights]] are now owned by [[Chelsea Pitch Owners]], a non-profit organisation in which fans are the shareholders. The CPO was created to ensure the stadium could never again be sold to developers. It also means that if someone tries to move the football club to a new stadium they could not use the Chelsea FC name.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=pp. 91-92}}</ref>
In London, the situation was no better. Fr. Lowder, the founder of the [[Society of the Holy Cross]], was threatened with prosecution under the Public Worship Regulation Act but escaped prosecution by the intervention of the Archbishop of Canterbury who feared the consequences of such a high profile [[Anglo-Catholic]] being put on trial
 
The club plans to increase its capacity to over 50,000. Owing to its ___location in a built-up part of London on a main road and next to two [[railway]] lines, fans can only enter the stadium through the [[Fulham Road]] entrance, which places severe constraints on expansion due to [[health and safety]] regulations.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill | year=2006 | title=Chelsea FC: The Official Biography | pages=p. 76 }}</ref> As a result, Chelsea have been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge to sites including the [[Earls Court Exhibition Centre]], [[Battersea Power Station]] and the [[Chelsea Barracks]].<ref>{{cite news
On the 1st August 1880, Fr. Richard Enraght was invited to London to preach at the Church of St Peter’s, London Docks, by Fr. [[Charles Fuge Lowder]], for High Celebration to mark the 4th anniversary of The Church of England Working Men’s Society. Sadly this was the last service at St. Peters that Fr. Lowder would attend, as he died a few weeks later while on holiday in Austria.

As Fr Enraght practices at Holy Trinity, Bordesley included, adoration of the [[Blessed Sacrament]], the use of [[candles |eucharistic lights]], [[chasuble]] and [[alb]], the ceremonial mixing of water and communion wine, making the [[sign of the Cross]] towards the congregation during the [[Holy Communion]] service, bowing his head at the [[Gloria in Excelsis Deo | Gloria]] and allowing the [[Agnus Dei]] to be sung, all which his Bishop, Dr. Philpott forbade, he then became a target of the [[Church Association]].

"''If the English Church be true portion of the one Catholic Church of Christ''," argued Fr. Enraght, "''is it not only reasonable that her Church buildings and services should resemble those of other branches of the Church Catholic''."
Since the club's foundation, Chelsea have had four main crests, though all underwent minor variations. In 1905, Chelsea adopted as their first crest the image of a [[Chelsea pensioner]], which obviously contributed to the "pensioner" nickname, and remained for the next half-century, though it never appeared on the shirts. As part of [[Ted Drake]]'s modernisation of the club from 1952 onwards, he insisted that the pensioner badge be removed from the match day programme in order to change the club's image and that a new crest be adopted.<ref name="crests">{{cite web |

This was the first club badge to appear on shirts, since the policy of putting the crest on the shirts was only adopted in the early 1960s.<ref name="crests"/>
In 1986, with new owners now at the club, Chelsea's crest was changed again as part of another attempt to modernise and to capitalise on new marketing opportunities.<ref name="crests"/> The new badge featured a more naturalistic non-heraldic lion, yellow and not blue, standing over the C.F.C. initials. It lasted for the next 19 years, with some modifications such as the use of different colours. With new ownership, and the club's [[centenary]] approaching, combined with demands from fans for the club's traditional badge to be restored, it was decided that the crest should be changed again in 2004. The new crest was officially adopted for the start of the [[2005-06 in English football|2005-06]] season and marks a return to the older design of the blue heraldic lion holding a staff.<ref name="new crest"/> As with previous crests, this one has appeared in various colours, including white and gold.

Chelsea have always worn blue shirts, although they initially adopted a lighter shade than the current version, and unlike today wore white shorts and dark blue socks. The lighter blue was taken from the racing colours of then club president, [[Earl Cadogan]]. The light blue shirts were short-lived, however, and replaced by a royal blue version in around 1912.<ref>{{cite book | author=Glanvill, Rick | title=Chelsea Football Club: The Official History in Pictures| year=2006| id=ISBN 0-75531-467-0}} p.212</ref> When [[Tommy Docherty]] became manager in the early 1960s he changed the kit again, adding blue shorts (which have remained ever since) and white socks, believing it made the club's colours more distinctive, since no other major side used that combination; this kit was first worn during the [[1964-65 in English football|1964–65]] season.<ref>{{cite book | author=Mears, Brian | title=Chelsea: Football Under the Blue Flag| publisher=Mainstream Sport| year=2002| id=ISBN 1-84018-658-5 | pages=p.42 }}</ref>
:''On August 31st, 1879, Mr Enraght denounced from the altar the conduct of a person who, on February 9th, had carried off from the altar a Consecrated Wafer, obtained under the pretence of communicating, in order to file It as an exhibit in the law courts as evidence of the use of wafer-bread. A feeling of intense horror and indignation was excited when the fact of this fearful sacrilege became known. It was difficult to credit the fact that a consecrated Wafer, after having been sacrilegiously secreted by a pretended communicant, had actually been delivered to Mr Churchwarden Perkins, the prosecutor, produced in Court as evidence, marked with pen and ink and filed as an exhibit! Thanks to some members of the Council of [[English Church Union]], the Consecrated Wafer was obtained from the court and given over to the care of the Archbishop of Canterbury, who reverently consumed It in his private chapel at Addington on Friday December 12th, 1879.''
Chelsea's traditional away colours are all yellow or all white with blue trim, but, as with most teams, they have had some more unusual ones.

Fr. Enraght’s imprisonment became widely known in the USA. On the 19th December 1880 a sermon was preached in St. Ignatius Church in New York, on ''The Imprisonment of English Priests for Conscience Sake'' by Revd Dr. Ewer, S.T.D., who praised the English priests stand, ''as simply a determined resistance to a violation of [[Magna Charta]]'',''and was proud to make common cause with them, so far as is possible, from this distance, and feeling that when one member of the Catholic Church suffers, all the members suffer with him'', the text was printed in full in the ''[[New York Herald]]'' and ''[[New York Tribune]]'' the following morning, (there were also four other priests who served prison sentences in England, [[Arthur Tooth]], [[T.

It appears that through the failure of an appeal to the House of Lords in May 1882 by Fr Enraght, he became liable to another term of imprisonment. Three months later, under the provisions of the PWR Act, the benefice of Holy Trinity, Bordesley became vacant, although still canonically held by Fr Enraght. Another clergyman was presented to the benefice against the wishes of Fr Enraght's former congregation.

''As of [[10 July]] [[2007]].''
=== Letter from the Archbishop of Canterbury to the Bishop of Worcester ===
ADDINGTON PARK, CROYDEN, Dec.12, 1879
MY DEAR LORD, An application was, I understood, this day made in the [[Arches Court]] by the counsel for the promoters in the case of ‘Perkins v Enraght’ for the delivery to them of all the documents and other exhibits which had been used as evidence in the case, on the ground that the time for appeal had passed, and the case might be now discharged.
The Dean of the Arches having acceded to this application, a certain wafer, alleged to have been consecrated by Mr. Enraght, in the service of Holy Communion, instead of the bread directed by our Church to be employed for this purpose, was placed in my hands by request of the Proctors for the prosecution.
I have taken care that the wafer should be reverently consumed, since however irregular may have been the mode of administering the Holy Communion, the fact seems now clear to me, though in no way brought before the Court, that this wafer was used in that administration.
I have therefore thought that it ought to be disposed of as rubric directs, Believe me, my dear Lord, yours very truly, A. C. CANTUAR

::There may indeed be cases in which two matters before the inferior court are so distinct that a writ of prohibition may go as to the one and not as to the other. But when the leading charge is within its jurisdiction, and the other charge, though varying in form, is for the same or similar acts, like a second count in an indictment, and the same sentence may be awarded on the first charge as upon both, a writ of prohibition should not issue.
