The club’s freezing of ticket prices may not have been expected, but it’s the equivalent of a restaurant giving you food poisoning, offering no refund or discount, and charging the same next time. Would you praise a restaurant for doing that?

@dylan_al99 This doesn’t look good bud

So Steve is someone I’ve spoken to on a few occasions over recent months. He’s now blocked me because he didn’t appreciate being called out on his comments and what I personally believe is a lot of bullshit. Steve shouts loudly online about what others should or shouldn’t be doing, yet I never actually see him lift a finger himself. He claims to attend protests yet whenever I ask people no one seems to have ever actually seen him there. He claimed to have attended multiple Strasbourg protests yet when I literally marched alongside Strasbourg supporters and spoke to those involved, again nobody seemed to have seen him there 🤔 Where’s Steve 🤷‍♂️ Prior to Wembley he was screaming about banners needing to be taken into the ground. Apparently he was attending the match himself. Funny that because I never saw his banner either. I suppose the wider point I’m making is this: A lot of people have opinions. A lot of people love telling others how supporter action should be done, what message should be conveyed and what others should do. But when it actually comes to standing up, organising, taking criticism, taking abuse and physically doing something, many people suddenly disappear. Don’t be like Steve.

🚨Protest Update 🚨 Following discussions held over the weekend and after gaining feedback from supporters, we have decided not to proceed with our in-stadium demonstration at tomorrow’s match against Tottenham. We wish to be very clear this is in no way a statement of intent to cease and desist with our efforts to restore the values and identity that made this club great. We are always trying to gauge the mood among supporters and demonstrate our frustrations when the time feels right, and on reflection, we wish to take a step back and review our position over the summer before taking further action. While we have huge reservations about how much 'self reflection' has happened at the club when not one sporting director seems to have been held accountable for the failings of the past four seasons, we understand that as supporters, there will always be a glimmer of hope following a promising managerial hire like Xabi Alonso. We feel supporters’ protest marches may have been influential in pushing the club to replace Liam Rosenior with someone more worthy of the role. However, we know Chelsea supporters are tired of this season and the loss of what a great feeling it should be following our club, and a demonstration at this point would not feel like the right timing. It’s not just the protest marches that have made a difference and we are not trying to claim victory there. Wider supporter scrutiny has also played its role, with greater focus on financials and increased media attention. It will take considerably more than one appropriate managerial hire for us to believe Blueco are suitable custodians of our club and huge question marks remain over their intentions and capability in a number of areas, including ticket prices, a potential new stadium, record financial losses, front-of-shirt sponsorship and respecting the club’s identity. We’ll be keeping a close eye on developments across the summer. We’ll also be looking at how best we approach next season as we look to formalise the NotAProjectCFC group. As a fanbase, we weren’t ready or prepared for an ownership group of this nature and with question marks over some of those who currently hold positions to represent the fans, we believe a group who can directly hold the club to account with total independence is required. As such, NotAProjectCFC will be in touch in due course to gauge supporter views on further action. For now, we wish everyone a happy and restful summer. UTC!
