He had an acquaintance of mine, a member of the Chelsea Supporters Group, up to his office and pretty much threatened her with a permanent ban from the Bridge because he thought the CSG had known about a cheap tickets for kids protest at a match. You treat your loyal supporters like that, you want taking round the back and given a good shoeing.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151785082691128693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883290.post-42093626924675871442009-04-20T22:43:00.000+01:002009-04-20T22:43:00.000+01:00It makes me utterly livid.

Sigh.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09151785082691128693noreply@blogger.com
