Or should I say a boiling hot welcome for Rafa! I couldn't hear myself think! I wonder what the expressions on the faces of Messrs Gourlay, Buck and even old expressionless Roman were like when the howl of protest went up! At the end of the day it wasn't Rafa's fault . but he must have felt uncomfortable!
Why don't the Chelsea fans protest against Roman or are they too scared of what might happen if he decides to stop funding the club?
Actually I thought Rafa was at least partly to blame. At his press conference he basically brushed off his past comments about Chelsea fans having no passion and claimed Chelsea fans would love him cos he is such a great manager. Hardly designed to get the crowd on your side, but then humility was never Benitez' strong point!
Rafa got the abuse, not Roman. Be honest, you wouldn't dare chant "you don't know what you're doing" or similar at Roman.
You really should have criticised Roman for what he did. All the supporters had a chance to show their discontent. Your banner should have said "Abramovich out" for f*ck's sake. CHELSEA IS YOUR CLUB. TAKE BACK CONTROL! He is not going to just run away because of that. You keep quiet and he thinks he is totally untouchable and he can do what he wants. E ven owners have take the views of the supporters into account some of the time . What's the worst than can happen? You get new owners. At least you as supporters of Chelsea you get some dignity back. At the moment he treats you worse than dirt. You just do not matter to him.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Why are you so afraid of showing him that you are unhappy with his decision? FFS it is not Benitez fault if he is offered a job
If Benitez had any integrity he would not have accepted the job. He is a bragging, self deluded plonker who will NEVER be welcome at our club. Abramovich is a madman, Buck and Gourley are a couple of bludgers with their snouts in the Abramovich trough. They are the real cowards who are all to ready to take his money, but are never able to advise him on the wise decisions.
