For anyone who didn't catch this on Thursday, it's created a great deal of attention and interest. Thanks to everyone who has read it. Stroke is important, one in four reading this will unfortunately suffer a stroke at some time in their lives 😧 theesk.org/2026/10/29/the-di…

So while Chelsea fans complain about the threshold for loyalty points being too low, this is now what the club has allowed. Fans who support other teams can easily go to big games, ahead of actual supporters. @ChelseaSTrust this is unsafe and a dangerous implication for matchgoing fans.
State of it, same cunt that got kicked out at Sunderland, if you see him at your ground get rid of the prick

Not sure booing Gusto when he comes on is helpful, to him or the team, especially when Chelsea are winning 2-0 at the time. The guy's confidence surely needs encouragement, not hostility.

13,000 Hospitality seats will kill the amazing San Siro atmosphere especially for the big games. In my opinion the normal fans will be priced out. Possibly the Curva Sud will be forced out. Just like the Spurs Stadium it will be an Entertainment Venue and not a Football Stadium.
Domani al Castello Sforzesco di Milano verrà svelato il progetto del “Nuovo San Siro”, in grafica alcune delle novità anticipate dalla GdS 🏟️ (L’intelligenza artificiale ci ha tenuto a segnalare “condizioni dei bagni migliori rispetto a oggi”: cara IA, graziarcazzo).

I haven’t posted here for ages, but I want people to share my wife’s GoFundMe if possible. She has been wonderful in the most important roles in life – as a mother, grandmother and a teacher. Please donate if you can. Thanks gofund.me/5e34e0fa3

Carrick off, presumably for a final time, to big applause. Disappears up the tunnel and it then turns to loud boos for the players. Very, very powerful. Point made.
