Lot Essay

Paddington is not a supporter of just one football team (he's far too polite) but Chelsea is one of his favourite London teams. He's really glad that Jose Mourinho and the Chelsea team have dressed him in blue. It's a perfect match for his trademark duffle coat.
Although the earnest young bear is quite bad at playing sports, he's always keen to give them a go. He's proud to be an honorary Chelsea squad member during The Paddington Trail, although he'll leave the skilful goal-scoring part to his fellow South American teammates.
Instead, he'll just watch from the stadium seats, waving his little scarf and singing along with the other supporters. Then again, he's not known for his great singing either!
