When Chelsea fans protested against the European Super League outside the Bridge on April 20, 2021, at least club legend and performance advisor Petr Cech had the minerals and conscience to step into the throng to talk/plead with them. Different cause to now. And also to who now at Chelsea will communicate with protesting fans? Who do fans actually respect in the building? Disconnect between fans and owners is deeply damaging - and growing.

Supporters are understandably angered by BlueCo’s naive stewardship of their club, the lack of experience in the dressing-room, dug-out, recruitment department and boardroom. They rail against wretched results seeing them fall from the Champions League spots. They are concerned about the prospect of ticket price rises and, they fear, the focus on tourist and corporate fan over so-called legacy fans, the ones who were there in the bad times. Home and away. They fear the heart and soul being ripped out of their club - their club - and replaced by a US-made cash register. 

BlueCo has to respond. No more spin. Be real, be genuine, be more open to fans before the marches escalate into people voting with their feet, leading to rows upon rows of empty seats. It’s not too late. Communicate properly, directly. Boehly and Eghbali are intelligent individuals, successful in business but they are new to the tricky currents of English football. They have to listen, they have to learn otherwise they’re going to lose all remaining credibility and lose a limo full of cash. #CFC

I remember walking to the bridge

Same route ,
Seeing the same faces even though you never knew all their names you kinda knew them

Being from battersea it was either Chelsea or Chelsea !

The game shaped your week win , lose or draw

A year ago today my life changed forever.
I was walking out of the stadium in Dortmund with my family on a massive high after a 2-1 win against the Netherlands putting us through to the EUROs final. We were dodging the big crowds on the way back to the car when a green Daily Mail microphone popped up in-front of me and asked “What’s your message to the England manager?“….A 20 second clip & over 100 million views later, it all changed.

Ever since I was little, I’ve recorded digital diary entries. Never planning to share them, but to have something to look back on to remember the special moments. When looking back on the past year, I found these videos and it felt right to share some of these moments today.

No words will ever be enough to express how grateful I am that I get to live my dream every single day. To my family and friends who I would be lost without, the dream brands I get to collaborate with that trust my work and the community that continue to believe in me - all that I can say is thank you. Here’s to the next year and beyond.

Happy Grimsby Anniversary day. On this day in 1984
@ChelseaFC won the Second Division title at Grimsby. So good we wrote a book about that season. A lot of folk on here will have great memories of that day. Who was there that day ? #CFCheritage

Stop what you’re doing and watch this I’m serious.

Jake holds up a sign asking to play guitar with The RPJ Band. They bring him up and let him do it. His favorite band? Guns N’ Roses. The song they play? Sweet Child O’ Mine. It’s fucking phenomenal.
