Perhaps not...



I though you lot were going ahead with building the new stadium? Has it been put on the back burner due to RA's issues?

Perhaps, I share many more values with a Chelsea fan than I do with a Liverpool fan.

Personally the way forward for Chelsea is a change of ownership. Abramovich's biggest problem isn't not providing funds - Chelsea have spent an absolute fortune in the last 3 years on mostly mediocre players - his biggest problem is the people he has put in place to run the football side of the club. Commercially the club is great, though CL football is vitally important the continued success on that side of things, but we've got business people in charge of the football side of things, we have no DoF etc.

That sounds like another club we all know.

I'm not that old mate :) The worst Chelsea have been in my lifetime were the mid-to-late 90's (I was 10-11 years old) and that team was pretty good, so I've had it good thankfully.

I was more on about the toxic atmosphere amongst Chelsea fans - we've been embroiled in a civil war since just before Mourinho was sacked in 2015, and it has exploded into outright abuse and daily racist, xenophobic arguments etc this season. Fans were chanting "f*** Sarriball" in the United game, and last night Jorginho was booed as he came off the bench, his only crime being associated with Sarri.

I've also realised that the root cause of what ails Chelsea is actually the board and as much as pains me to say, the owner. At this point, close to 100% of Chelsea fans want Sarri out. They're done with him, but firing him would just be, imo, the club abdicating on their own responsibilities and refusing to acknowledge and address their own shortcomings. If you're hiring/firing managers with none of them able to achieve any sustained success, the problem isn't whoever happens to be the manager, it's how the club is run we need to take a close look at. I can guarantee you that if we fire Sarri, we'll be back here at some point next season mulling over the fate of the next Chelsea coach. Rinse, repeat.

Apologies, that turned into a bit of a rant, but the club is a mess and firing/not firing the coach is the least of our problems.

"the club is a mess". Hmmm,...
