A mate just told me tomorrow is our last weekend home game until March. Mad.

So he knows the draw for the 4th round of the FA Cup? assuming we win our 3rd round tie? Does he also have tonights lottery numbers?

Tom, I’ve just checked, your mate is right, first weekend game at home after tomorrow is 8th March. Absolutely f***ing ridiculous. WTF Chelsea supporters have family responsibilities and jobs taken with the disproportionate number of Sunday games this is out of order. The only positive is that a lot of season ticket holders will put their tickets on ticket exchange and members will get a chance to get tickets. Not sure who is responsible for this shambles.

West Side, look at the fixture list on the Chelsea website.

Jimbo, not very good for kids/ families as you say. I assume it’s a TV decision.
The problem is we want the broadcasters money!
wsotb. You may not know this but no cup games are included in season tickets.

Tom, you’re probably right about TV but I I’ve never known this sort of fixture list before. Can’t believe any other PL side has a similar situation but I certainly can’t be arsed to check.

Jimbo, seems very anti family and I’m sure the club don’t want that to be the case but as I said us fans and the club want the broadcasters money.
I honestly thought my mate must have got it wrong when he told me.

Tom, I didn’t believe it either until I checked- I nearly fell off my soap box. Just finished watching MOTD didn’t realise we have scored the most goals in PL from open play- just imagine if we had an aerial threat in the box from set pieces.
