Chelsea FC football club, not the real fans?

I am really fed up with being surrounded by 'pseudo' Chelsea fans at football matches.  I have supported my team (Chelsea) since I was a kid - and whatever they've done, good or bad over the years.  I have always stayed loyal to my team and I always will. Isn’t that what you do if you are a serious football fan?

Over the last couple of years though, there've been a lot of new faces at the football matches that I go to.  I often wonder what team these people were supporting before, because they certainly weren’t in abundance at all the Chelsea matches I went to.  My gripe is with the way they don’t truly support the team. When things are going well there's no problem, but if we go a goal down or don't power through every tackle, these so called supporters just moan and gripe at the players and the team. What kind of support do you call that?

These are not real Chelsea supporters; they are nothing but changelings in my opinion.  They support the most fashionable team at any given time.  Well the real Chelsea supporters, myself included, don't want or need them.

So let them go off and support Liverpool, Tottenham or even Man United please; that way I can get back to enjoying supporting my team without these moaners!

You ve try a lot to put this down. Its really true there are many football fans who doesnt know the right club to follow and also. They also mistook Chelsea Football Clubfar so many low profile club that doesnt fit. Many Manchester United Football Club fans also always took advantage of the club past records over Chelsea and many football clubs across England. Its absolutely nonsense. Many Chelsea fans also boost about the current form of the club.Thanks. Wayne Mark

The Russian will soon realise that money cannot buy heart and passion. Those attributes are what the other 3 top clubs have that Chelski do not.

If I were a Chelsea fan I would be glad of anybody that went to a game. Their tickets usually go out to general sale, something that is unheard of at the big clubs. Chelsea are an average club that won the lottery. They are not and will never be the big club that Kenyon tries to claim they are. The only clubs in this country that can really call themselves 'big' are Man Utd, Liverpool and Newcastle Utd. The Gunners are a close second to these three. All of those clubs sell out all of their games. Chelsea want to move to a big new stadium. What is the point when they cannot fill the one they have got? Chelsea 'real' fans should enjoy these good times as there are plenty of bad ones to come once the russian factor implodes. I sympathise with them as this current organisation is going to destroy their club.

real fans will pay the high prices to see there favourite team win the league for the third time. the real fans you have been talking about are the fans who used to live local and go because they the tickets were. many years ago. football has changed so the fans change. simple as that

chelsea re going down the same road man united did in the 90's when a lot of their real fans got priced out. Its the baggage that comes with being successful!

Chelsea do not want true fans !
They want a faceless middle class spud who will bring his overweight spoilt brats to spend his disposable income in the club shop

Im sure when Russian cu*t gets bored and leaves all these plastic fans will go back to supporting Man Utd
