    I guess you haven't been to West Ham or Milwall game.
    I doubt you have either tbf.
    Been to a couple of West Ham games with a mate who supports them. Was fun watching them fighting with each other, never mind the opposing fans. Anyway, my point stands: you were a bit stupid to move that close to a big football stadium knowing what match days are like.
    TBF, it wasn't Rick who built the stadium.
    Which one was there first?

    It was more the outright hostile racism to people on public transport from them which I had a problem with.

    And when they cornered my wife and threatened to rape her.

    But yeah, standard for football fans right?

    🙄
    Nobody said that wasnt totally unacceptable but you would still be a lot wiser to have lived away from a football stadium. Other locations are available.

    And are you really trying to make out this is something specific to Chelsea fans? That's before we get onto tarring all supporters of a team with the same brush.

    £611 million. £611 million!!

    I think the best thing Chelsea should do is hire the Brighton and Hove Albion manager who's club spent £55M.. Oh hang on... they did that and it didn't work.

    ...and that worked out well. Severance pay at Chelsea:

    Brighton received £21.5M for Graham Potter and paid £13M in severance pay.

    According to French outlet L’Equipe, the 47-year-old received a yearly income of £11.8million. Although 6 months in the job only netted a piffling £5.9m for Potter.

    Thomas Tuchel got a £13m pay-out - with an extra £2m to his backroom staff - for his Chelsea sacking.

    Soon to be 12th in the league...

    I wonder if the £75,000 per week paid to Limphard after his first appointment had something to do with re-hiring him 'cos the bean counters did an audit.

    That website is a load of nonsense. It is transfer spending only, doesn't include wages or player sales, and even in relation to the transfer spending it doesn't account for the period over which the spending is spread. My understanding is that clubs treat the total spend, including the wages, over the period of the contract. And Chelsea have been handing out unusually long contracts.

    This will totally bite them in the ars€ though, because they've effectively spend several years' transfer funds.

    Manchester City have been spending like that for pretty much 15 years, completely out of proportion to their true revenue, because they are basically a national asset. Whether the cheating they've been doing by all that creative accounting is ever enforced against the club is a different matter.

    Football derby games. They only mean something to the 'local' fans, who can have
    banter with each other in pubs, bars, factories, office, etc etc, when the teams play
    each other.
    Players* and managers sounding-off about the importance of derby games are just
    talking tosh.

    *Mind you, I think derby games meant a lot to United-hating Mike Doyle (a mancunian) when he played for City during the 60s and 70s.

    The atmosphere at the ground is different on a derby day. This then affects the players, so they learn the importance.

    Arsenal: 12 points above Manure, 15 points above Liverpool, 24 points above the blighted spuds ( :smiley: ) and 38 points above Chelsea.
    Brentford are 13 points above Chelsea and Fulham, Crystal palace, Brighton, Aston Villa and Newcastle are above them.
    Man City have scored more than double the points Chelsea have scored this season.

    'Cos Chelsea are really really shyte.

    Not really, no. Of course there is a good atmosphere for big games, but it is not like a derby.

    I mean there was football before Aldershot Town were founded, but it was a very different sport.
