@SonOfChelsea @liam_twomey And the infamous CFC/CPO meeting of 15 years ago has imo been hugely misrepresented. Personal view, if the club came up with a credible plan for SB or nearby, the CPO would back it. But a bad plan would be opposed.

[Mark Faithfull @RPAnalyst]

@TheRealFounding @tim_rolls @pitchowners It's a big reason why I don't feel the CPO is specifically anti leaving SB because there was a sense once it was raised that this was a good compromise, but I can't say for sure as it was never voted on.

[Mark Faithfull @RPAnalyst]

@TheRealFounding @tim_rolls @pitchowners It was floated by one of the legal speakers, who said it would give them the certainty over site ownership that they required while still protecting the pitch owners. Buck and Gourlay flat refused to discuss but (personal view) I felt it had a lot of traction in the room.

@tim_rolls @pitchowners I remember him physically grimacing after the word brand slipped out. I'm sure they thought the great unwashed of 70s and 80s support would show up, not QCs, heads of media companies and advertising agencies. Not bad for legacy fans.

@gate17marco Agreed. So much crap being talked. Clearly issues to iron out but we took zero points from Fulham away and Brighton home last season, or Arsenal away so that gives us a free hit next week. Why don’t we all stop moaning and enjoy the ride!

@eddiemacbawa @barnetmark1 @ChelseaFC @cfc_heritage Went with my dad - got in quite late, but got into the slipstream of a bloke going 'mind the dog please' and clearing a path through. Seem to recall Doug Rougvie nearly splitting Tony Woodcock in half with a tackle and a huge chorus of your not singing anymore after Kerry scored.

SIR HARRY EDWARD KANE. TAKE A BOW.

@NeilSpyBarnett @ChelseaFC @Arsenal Schweinsteiger in 2012. I think it’s the people it almost means too much to, emotional pressure overcomes them.

@CFCTicketsHQ Got ours around 3pm today (Thursday)

@NeilSpyBarnett @ChelseaFC I see people asking if this is the worst Chelsea team and of course it’s not compared with the malaise of the mid-seventies. But it’s the most frustrating in terms of self-inflicted wounds.

@FabrizioRomano The only time we ever hear from the ownership is at these international sporting conventions when they make high handed and out of touch pronouncements. No communication, no coherent or believable plan, no attempt at supporter buy-in #BlueCoOut

[Mark Faithfull @RPAnalyst]

@LondonBluePod @Matt_Law_DT For members the exchange has become less than useless and all these mysterious corporate seats are being put on sale at what are clearly beyond market value prices, as they remain unsold. The result is fans unable to buy seats while seats remain empty, which is ludicrous.

@NeilSpyBarnett @ChelseaFC The worse thing is that we probably haven’t seen the worse thing yet

@DerrenBrown Finally got to see you live on the first night at Bromley, what an amazing show!

[Mark Faithfull @RPAnalyst]

@NeilSpyBarnett @ChelseaFC He started fairly strongly but his performances declined, as did his decision making. I think he had too much football in his legs by the time he arrived.

#TraitorsUK Rachel's problem now is that if she successfully goes for Fiona at the roundtable and she then reveals at the banishment that she's a traitor, surely the faithfuls will go for Rachel next. I think Fiona's outburst has left the previously Teflon Rachel in Catch 22

@thenorthface when my son applied £100 of gift cards to a purchase the site took the money but didn’t complete the order and now he’s being messed around. How do we sort this out?

A quick shout out to @ItsuOfficial in Wimbledon, who replaced the veggie sushi my daughter had bought but which had fallen through the bottom of an Itsu bag and hit the floor on her way home, without question. Great customer service and they made her very happy!
