Thank God Spurs did not get Olympic Stadium

They can't even sell out their first CL match (and their second entry in 55 years) with tickets priced at £20 for adults and £10 for kids!

It's a white elephant, mate. I told everyone at the time.

I am so glad we let the pikeys nick it off Joe Public!

 

Did you expect anything different mate? Spurs, the Newcastle of the south.

 

Whats it with small clubs and not selling out its games, ££££ and Spuds cant fill out, but Leicester and Arsenal can

 

When Arsenal played at Wembley, 1999/2000 fair play to the Gooons. Despite regular CL footie, a double group stage and tickets costing more than Prem games, the Arrse sold out the (first) group stage games no problems.

No general sale necessary

 

I think you'll find that we're always sold out, particularly for home games.

You must be thinking of Arsenal, where the silly ****ers pay the highest gate fees in the World, and only half of them actually turn up to the game to watch in hushed silence.

 

Think they recruited the West Ham marketing manager CFC, 'give them free they might come'

 

Firstly, prove it. Secondly, Wembley was smaller. Thirdly, you're going to have to groundshare with West Ham.

 

This from a fan whose club couldn't sell out Stamford Bridge for CL group games

At £20 a chuck they should be

 

Shameful that they could not even sell 50k until they went on general sale. For only their sixth ever CL game.

They will sell out on general. Tourists and Aussie backpackers will go to see Spurs Monaco when tickets are cheaper than Charlton

 

A) You believe what you read in the Daily Mail! You can't even read what it says properly: sales were well over 50k before general sale. I reckon more like 70,000
B) When Chelsea qualified for the CL for the second time in 2003 your crowd for the first home group match was 32,957
Lets see what the crowd is on Wednesday and see which club is 'shameful'

 

We don't have to wait till then to see which club is shameful.

 

Every reply makes the OP smile.

 

2006 was our fourth season in the Champions League

 

Thanks - there was a typo in my post - the match referred to was in 2003.

 

I know he is just a WUM but sometimes fans of these poorly supported clubs need to be told the facts

 

I am sure Chelsea has the second largest global fan base worldwide now, of all the PL clubs.
If by poorly supported you mean in numbers, you are wrong,
if you mean the people who support Chelsea, support them poorly, then you MAY have a point
