Now is a good time for Chelsea fans to come together – Talk Chelsea

In case you haven’t but seen, a bunch of Chelsea followers have come collectively to organise a peaceable protest this Saturday at 12pm earlier than the Brentford match at Stamford Bridge.

The protest is in opposition to the truth that The Ricketts household, who’re attempting to purchase Chelsea FC, are even within the equation not to mention shortlisted. There are such a lot of issues collectively in opposition to them and what they’ve accomplished/how they’ve operated, it’s made them collectively disliked by many of the fanbase.

You don’t should do an excessive amount of analysis to seek out numerous articles on-line detailing how they’ve operated as a sporting group, in addition to all of the dodgy and racist stuff numerous members of the family have mentioned.

I believe now is an effective time to peacefully protest. I’m undecided individuals are actually taking onboard the severity of this. Chelsea’s Muslim gamers corresponding to Antonio Rudiger and Hakim Ziyech, will they actually keep at this membership beneath Ricketts? I’m not so positive.

That is simply one of many many explanation why I believe we have to protest to make our voices heard now after the #NoToRicketts marketing campaign additionally making a optimistic influence.

However why am I seeing a civil conflict amongst Chelsea followers on Twitter over this protest? As a result of some individuals don’t like one or two individuals who have organised it? Why? As a result of they’re ‘influencers’? Or as a result of they don’t seem to be match-going followers? I don’t know. These are real questions… Otherwise you simply don’t like a person particular person behind it? Are we at college nonetheless?

I simply suppose that we must always all be pulling collectively in the identical route with this and it’s fully irrelevant who has began the marketing campaign. The Ricketts Household ought to be nowhere close to this membership and it’s as much as us as followers to a minimum of attempt to do one thing about it.

The membership belongs to the followers in my view. No followers, no membership. So, we DO have a say, and we will likely be heard. So as a substitute of moaning and bitching about who’s beginning the protests and who’s backing them, let’s simply all get on board and combat for the membership and our future, no? Do it for yourselves not for anybody else. Or if you happen to don’t wish to protest and don’t agree with them, that’s additionally fantastic, no one is forcing something on anybody.
