Record breakers...

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

Arsenal have set the record for the lowest possession percentage for a team playing in a Champions League final (since records began in 2003-04).

The previous lowest record was also Arsenal, set in the 2006 Champions League final, which they played 72 minutes with 10 men.

Day 25,553

Nope!

[OptaJoe @OptaJoe]

24.7% - Arsenal’s possession average (24.7%) was the lowest by a team in a UEFA Champions League final on record (since 2003-04), as well as their lowest in any match under Mikel Arteta where they had 11 men on the pitch throughout. Reactive.

Well it was worse than I predicted!

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Prediction: We won't recover from this, league form will dive, we'll finish 7th or 8th behind Brentford.

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

@HecticTracks Like Chris Sutton, he'll probably be better at that than football!

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Delap reminds me of a shit Chris Sutton.

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

@gusmears1905 Reminds me of a poor mans Chris Sutton. He ran around like a headless lump most of the time too.

Team news, leading the line this evening....

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Absolutely the wrong decision in every way.

Nothing has changed.

🚨Protest Update 🚨

Following discussions held over the weekend and after gaining feedback from supporters, we have decided not to proceed with our in-stadium demonstration at tomorrow’s match against Tottenham.

We wish to be very clear this is in no way a statement of intent to cease and desist with our efforts to restore the values and identity that made this club great. We are always trying to gauge the mood among supporters and demonstrate our frustrations when the time feels right, and on reflection, we wish to take a step back and review our position over the summer before taking further action.

While we have huge reservations about how much 'self reflection' has happened at the club when not one sporting director seems to have been held accountable for the failings of the past four seasons, we understand that as supporters, there will always be a glimmer of hope following a promising managerial hire like Xabi Alonso.

We feel supporters’ protest marches may have been influential in pushing the club to replace Liam Rosenior with someone more worthy of the role. However, we know Chelsea supporters are tired of this season and the loss of what a great feeling it should be following our club, and a demonstration at this point would not feel like the right timing.

It’s not just the protest marches that have made a difference and we are not trying to claim victory there. Wider supporter scrutiny has also played its role, with greater focus on financials and increased media attention.

It will take considerably more than one appropriate managerial hire for us to believe Blueco are suitable custodians of our club and huge question marks remain over their intentions and capability in a number of areas, including ticket prices, a potential new stadium, record financial losses, front-of-shirt sponsorship and respecting the club’s identity.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on developments across the summer. We’ll also be looking at how best we approach next season as we look to formalise the NotAProjectCFC group. As a fanbase, we weren’t ready or prepared for an ownership group of this nature and with question marks over some of those who currently hold positions to represent the fans, we believe a group who can directly hold the club to account with total independence is required. As such, NotAProjectCFC will be in touch in due course to gauge supporter views on further action.

For now, we wish everyone a happy and restful summer. UTC!

@NotAProjectCFC Absolutely the wrong decision in every way.

[Neil Barnett @NeilSpyBarnett]

In 3 seasons of the 22 Abramovich owned @ChelseaFC we failed to win a trophy (& in 1 of those reached the UCL Final). Now in 3 of the 4 years of current ownership we've won nothing. Today we played not to be crushed. Embarrassing!!

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

@davepl1968 UAC was a cunt!

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Anyone expecting anything other than a complete rogering at Wembley tomorrow?

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

We're going to end up with another sub-standard manager, aren't we?

[NotAProjectCFC @NotAProjectCFC]

🚨 PROTEST ACTION ANNOUNCED 🚨

Following our recent protest alongside Strasbourg fans and the impact of the Blueco Out digivan, we are now confirming further action at TWO key games before the end of the season.

🏆 FA Cup Final vs Manchester City
📍 Wembley Way
📅 Saturday 16 May
⏰ 13:30

Join us for a protest march from Wembley Park Underground station to the stadium before kick off.

A large banner will lead the march, focusing not just on Blueco, but also the sporting directors.

🏟 Chelsea vs Tottenham (Home)
📅 Tuesday 19 May
⏱ 22nd minute

We are taking action inside the stadium.

Stand up when the clock strikes 22 minutes (if able), turn your backs on the pitch for one minute and join the chant:

🗣 “We want our Chelsea back”

❗ This goes beyond any manager
❗ We have no faith in the current ownership or sporting leadership.
❗ We are not interested in words. Only actions

These protests will continue beyond this season until change is forced.

We will also be launching a crowdfunding page to support future action.

Together, we can get our club back.

Up the Chels

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

I'm starting to despise everything I used to love about this club.

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Hahah course we haven't!

[TheChels @TheChelsOrg]

Fuck me, we've scored!
