Chelsea are getting 45% of the gate receipts against Boro anyway so it does seem a bit stupid to not allow Chelsea fans to travel
Going forward are away fans allowed at Chelsea as if not other clubs could request the same thing | | | |

They've already sold 600 tickets previously so it's not like they won't have any support there. |  | | |

That was enough for us to win 4-1 at Old Trafford, but then we did have Divine Intervention. |  |

As much as I hate Chelsea for reasons that I may have to explain to the maker in the afterlife I do get a sense that the fans are being punished in all this. If the club is under government control the income will be diverted from where it was going to them. It just seems very harsh on the ordinary fans. Much as they knew the Russian money wasn't all being used for the love of the club, the fans generally just want to support their team. I thought Simon Jordan spoke very well this morning on the subject.
I can see Chelsea going to the wall to be honest. The fans having to do a Wimbledon FC job and go back to working their way up the non-leagues. Weirdly there may be some older Chelsea fans who'd prefer that. |  |

National Express are doing some good bulk ticket deals at the moment, or maybe they could get within the £20k limit if they do that split ticket thing that Clive is so good at, rather than just book straightforward returns.
We all know that some other filthy rich bstard will bail them out eventually, but isn’t this fun, nonetheless. |  | | |

'I can see Chelsea going to the wall to be honest. The fans having to do a Wimbledon FC job and go back to working their way up the non-leagues'....
Have you been drinking??? Absolutely zero chance this will happen. Wimbledon where in the Championship and playing in front of a couple of thousand fans at Selhurst Park. Chelsea will be in the Champions League next season getting paid millions by BT Sport. Nobody wanted to go near Wimbledon back then (apart from Chris Wright who wanted to close them down and merge them with QPR). There are apparently 150 interested parties in purchasing chelsea... they will be just fine next season. [Post edited 15 Mar 2022 14:50]

there are times where I try to divorce myself from the "I hate Chelsea so sod them" attitude I have had for all 501 of my years on this planet and try to see the bigger picture. THe impact on the fans, the impact on football in general.
then their fans start singing Abramovich's name during the minute applause for Ukraine. They hoist banners to his legacy. their former captain calls him "the best" and now, in what can only be described as absolute arrogance, they want Middlesborough punished too. forget that Boro need the money as much if not more so (I also subscribe to the someone rich will buy Chelsea they will be fine approach). forget that you have world superstars playing against championship players. Spin in like Putin and say "its for integrity".
Yes, not every Chelsea fan is a moronic thug, so I slightly feel for them, but for all the other attitudes displayed by this entitled club, I have to go back to "sod them" |  |

"Yes, not every Chelsea fan is a moronic thug..."
Hmmm, are we really SURE about that, though?

You make a lucid, well thought out argument. But I think most off us just think f**k em  |  | | |

doubt they go to the wall, but hopefully some sponger comes in, and sells sells sells the assets and players, takes out loans and they face reality of a BUDGET. Candy talks big but is pulling funds together . | | | |

Was listening to Talksport earlier and Simon Jordon said he'd received a message from Gibson saying you can't use "sporting integrity" and Chels** in the same sentence

outstanding from Steve Gibson
"Given the reasons for these sanctions, for Chelsea to seek to invoke sporting "integrity" as reason for the game being played behind closed doors is ironic in the extreme."
I mean you have to laugh that they want it played behind closed doors as they only sold 600 tickets, can we ask for the same against Forest on Wednesday if this works |  | | |

Surely if accepted, which it wont be, that will mean all their home and away games will be BCDs. Same logic all round. What a bunch of plebs.. | | | |

sadly no chance, they will just get bought by some other billionaire and carry on as normal, hopefully this time they get one that wants their money back in the end | | | |
