    It's not as if Chelsea fans have a good reputation as it is though.

    By and large they travel very well, its not the 80's or 90's. When its the tiniest of minority can dominate the headlines its disgusting.

    Especially considering what happened last year those "fans" should have been better behaved.

    My god UEFA might not take that well at all! .. Dispicable bastards!

    I know these are a tiny minority but it goes against everything UEFAs "No to Racism" campaign has been trying for years.

    Considering the amount of racism Eastern European teams get away with it'll be a fine at worst.

    Doesnt make it ok in the slightest though.

    I'm a United fan but if this was United fans filmed in Paris I would be slightly worried UEFA might want to make an example of us.. fine at the very least I would think!

    You watch this become headlines across Europe tomorrow.

    I don't think UEFA are gonna get involved in an isolated incident (no matter how despicable) on a train.

    The very worst UEFA would do is fine the club IMO.

    Maybe a game behind closed doors but its not as bad as the Eastern european teams as a comparison.

    not that I'm condoning one form of large scale racism over a handful of idiots, ideally you'd get none of it anywhere but you'll always get those types somewhere that bring down the clubs reputation, sadly.

    It'll be a €50k fine (if it's punished) and forgotten about before the 2nd leg is played.

    Have seen much worse and a fine of less than €100k is the norm.

    One of them has been identified on Twitter! Gotta love social media!

    Probably depends how big the story goes .. They might have no other choice but to fine Chelsea.

    Small fella in the white tshirt seems to be the main guy singing from the video.

    It will probably over shadow the result tomorrow TBH and rightfully so, especailly if it means people are identified and banned as a result of it.

    Might be just too late for the red tops for the morning.

    Looks bad for the Premier League as a whole, not just Chelsea.

    I realise you can't tar everyone with the same brush but my dislike of ''Lahndan'' teams stems from the quotient of Estuary Man tossers who support them.

    Can they fine Chelsea for something that happened no where near a football stadium. Are clubs responsible for their fans outside of football.

    Surely that's a police matter and has nothing to do with them being Chelsea fans.

    UEFA can't do anything about it, if they do then all the nonsense about being unable to punish the Turkish and Italian teams for fan behaviour because it did not happen in the ground means nothing

    ******

    This exactly. It doesn't matter who they supposedly support, they are just despicable thugs.

    They always have a choice. It's either in the realm or scope of things they punish for, or it isn't. I doubt this is, due to it being on a train away from the ground.

    It is 100% not in the realm of any football authority. To even attribute them to Chelsea is retarded.

    It's a police matter and for the authorities who are meant to to be maintaining a safe place for the metro. They don't even mention Chelsea in the video. That racist gowl acting dosent just belong to soccer

    It's just click bait.

    Agreed. I think it will be difficult to punish too many people for it either because I didn't see much by way of clear pictures of identifiable individuals committing an offence.

    It must have been so awkward for these lads in the video when a black man scored the most important goal in their club's history.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,200 ✭✭✭hots


    Maybe I'm missing something but has Abramovich given up on the idea of his Chelsea team playing attractive football ?....

    I think you must be missing most Chelsea games this season anyway? Last night, and most European away legs was tight with a score draw in mind but in general we're playing the best football we ever have, top scoring the league, with some of the most exciting players (who lead the prem scoring, assists, dribbles completed, key passes etc etc)...

    The old bus parking/boring football rhetoric is fine for talking about individual games but pretty stupid when talking about the team overall.
