Chesterfield fans must be devastated after the weird 'bond' they put so much effort into manufacturing post their FA Cup hammering.

I guess squeezing the rich Russians we gave citizenship for a down payment is the best Britain can do these days in the hope it makes them put pressure on Putin to change his mind. Watching politicians backtrack on all their big talk when British soldiers want to volunteer and acting like snivelling cowards shows how effective Britain is on the world stage.

We are terrified of Putin and Russia so we'll hide under the table shaking the legs of Russians in this country hoping one of them can give Putin a telling off because Britain, Europe and NATO in general are toothless.

Wonder if Roman and John met up when we had our League Cup game.... a cosy soirée at some private member's club in Belgravia to discuss Tory funding maybe?

I’m obviously all for sanctioning Russian oligarchs, but feel this impacts Chelsea fans unnecessarily, no matter how much anyone hates them. Surely there could be some arrangement where fans can still buy tickets and merchandise with the proceeds going to a Ukrainian fund of some sort? I get that it’s all legal and political detail that probably goes over my head but I just can’t see this staying as it is and think the club might get some leeway. Think of how many stewards, stadium staff, club shop staff will be negatively affected to name just a few.

Point raised earlier about the profile of the Chelsea players.  A savvy player, for that read their PR team, will be all over this and putting forward their wages to help pay the wages of those in the club shop etc. who will be told not to report to work from tomorrow.

Hard to feel sorry for Chelsea fans, especially given the fact they saw it fit to chant his name during a tribute towards Ukraine. In fact I’d go so far as to say there’s no other club that deserves this more than them.


This is payback for all the train journeys into and out of Kings Cross on a Chelsea match day ruined by their scumbag fans.
