According to Hawksby or jacobs (whichever is the chelski fan) on talkshite yesterday, its because for broadcasting the chumps league they need a back up broadcast system and at Stamford bridge the only place to park the extra trucks is behind the stand and this blocks one of the emergency exits and thus reduces the safe capacity of the stand.

Sorry, but that sounds bollocks

IF it's true that they had to block an emergency exit then it's definitely plausible as the safe capacity of any stand depends on being able to evacuate it within a fixed timescale in an emergency so closing one emergency exit will affect that.

I spotted that mate, right at the back of the shead end!
Also there was a small square block in the rags end just off centre of the goal?

There was one of these at each end, they were behind the official UEFA photographer sections.

Thinking about it again, it does seem plausible..... just shows what a Third World ground Stamford Bridge is if that's the case
