Chelsea pay tribute to employee after 50 years of Stamford Bridge service

Vaishali Bhardwaj4 September 2018

Chelsea chairman Bruce Buck helped honour the long years of service by one staff member by presenting him with a cake and flowers during a touching tribute on Saturday.

Buck was at Stamford Bridge ahead of Chelsea’s Premier League game against Bournemouth as the club celebrated Brian Pullman’s fifty years of service at the west London club.

Chelsea’s head of communications, Steve Atkins, delivered a touching speech in front of journalists about Brian, who works at the club on matchdays as well as at the training ground when press conferences are scheduled.

After the speech, Buck presented Brian and his wife with flowers and a cake before the pair posed for pictures in front of the assembled media.

Chelsea went on to also deliver on the pitch later on in the day as Maurizio Sarri's side extended their 100 per cent start to the Premier League season with a 2-0 win over Bournemouth.

Pedro put Chelsea ahead after 72 minutes before Eden Hazard netted a second five minutes from time as Sarri's Blues made it four wins from four heading into the international break.
