Happenstance Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Not happy with Liverpool tonight. Porto are playing well but we have played big teams before and won. We are just being sloppy tonight, passing is off, possesion isnt good enough and and as Pennant demonstrated, our tackling isnt very good either.

Max Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 nice debate on talk sport about chelsea, apparently they had 17,000 empty seats and lead to a conclusion that either football is too expensive or chelsea dont actually have enough die hard fans that attend no matter what. you never see that many empty seats with arsenal, utd and liverpool along with teams like charlton and west ham what do you think? chelsea can never be a worldwide brand no matter how much they spend? they cant even get enough fans in england.

Does it matter really matter if they don't have as many fans as someone else? Does that mean they are not allowed to be successful based purely on the number of fans?

If Chelsea continues to win it won't take more than 10 years to see it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fields Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Made me laugh a whole lot. And Liverpool are meant to be huge, right? What with them having won the Premiership? Oh, wait.. 1. We're bigger than Chelsea 2. We've won the league more times than Chelsea I'm looking forward to seeing how you argue with this.

Babooo Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Tbh I'm not surprised that Chelsea couldn't even fill up Stamford Bridge last night. Throughout the whole of last season, I always heard adverts on the radio about how tickets for Chelsea games were now on general sale... Being an Arsenal supporter, it is pretty damn hard to get tickets. Tickets hardly ever go on general sale and this season I finally bought myself a Red Membership so I can watch some games throughout the season. ....and because of that, I am going to the Arsenal Vs Seville game tonight! Can't wait. Should be a very good game of football.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khilafah Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Allez l'OM. needed that 2-0 win. league form has been a joke so great CL win. Shino, I am gonna be in lisbon next week with work.

There's an entire mall at the stadium with really large club shop, but you can find shirts and stuff like that at a general sport shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant-Shimmin Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Does it matter really matter if they don't have as many fans as someone else? Does that mean they are not allowed to be successful based purely on the number of fans? Yes It Does, A Good Example of this was the Community Shield last year at Cardiff, Merseyside (Even I Admit It) is run down and apparently home to the poor. Yet we could of probably sold out our End Twice Over Chelsea coming from London home of teh gold and Queen etc Just about got Half of their capacity. Their was no difference in ticket prices they literally just could not sell out. Now I know we have alot of fans outside Liverpool but it outlines the point that Chelsea are indeed a small club, They might have a few so called 'fans' cropping up here or their. But they aren't even the biggest club in the capital never mind England, based on support and success. Look at United and Liverpool Success established over a long period of time... We didn't become succesful overnight It's arguable that Liverpool have always been recognised as a big club since the first few years of their set up, it wasn't until Bill Shankly came along...And Well the rest is history. United is a weird one they where a big club during the George Best and Busby Babes era, then they kind of went away and after 26 Years of a League Less Trophy Cabinet they managed to get it. They were similar to Liverpool now always wanting the league, yet always getting the odd cup here or their only difference being we were getting to European Finals on a regular basis. Bottom Line is....Chelsea are a small club gone 'big' too fast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kav Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Bottom Line is....Chelsea are a small club gone 'big' too fast... I'm a Chelsea fan and half agree with this, only half because I would say that we're WERE a small club that went big too fast! Not ARE a small club, not anymore! However, you've also got to take into consideration the number of teams there are in London! It's reasonable that we don't have the fanbase of teams with history and that don't have too many other teams in the same city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramar Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Chelsea have enough of a fan base. Matter of fact is most of them are glory hunting ***** who don't go to games. The amount of people I see wearing a Chelsea shirt now, compared to say 2000, has increased heavily. Most of their fans just don't go to games, because the Sky generation is or has taken over. Luckily for me, my household has never had Sky or Cable. Has really made me appreciate going to matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
