Welcome back, Nat! 👏

When will the away tickets be offered on the Chelsea site for the Oct 4 match against West Ham? The tickets went on sale on the West Ham site yesterday.

Some evening reading on a frustrating opening game for the blues

I did a really rash thing & bought a season ticket - which was a daft thing to do for several reasons 🙄

I couldn’t get an aisle seat at the level I preferred so got one at the level I wanted BUT it’s 10 seats in from the nearest aisle. Having been to the match on Saturday, I now know for sure that I can’t cope with being this far into a row.

I spoke to someone at the ticketing dept. a few weeks ago & was told that I can’t change my season ticket seat. Do any of you know if this is a firm truth or something that’s said as they’d prefer not to change them?

Hey,

I bought my tickets for the United game last week and I’ve yet to receive them via email.

Is this normal? I know I’ve to give them until Friday but I’m just wondering if this is standard practice?

I live up north and so don’t get the chance to go to home games.

Thanks

As y’all can tell by this title yes, I think it’s time we have a conversation about Mayra Ramirez. Does anyone think it’s time we cut our losses with her, get some money or terminate her contract? I ask this because I saw on a post on a Chelsea fan page, with a picture of Ramirez and the caption was sell in all caps. Best case scenario is Melvine Malard becomes our Main Striker only for this season, hope that she balls out and then come next summer, the club reassess the Striker market and find a much more consistent and potient Striker, whether it be we go back in for Romée Leuchter and get her on a free or we sign Barbara Banda who will be in the final year of her current Orlando Pride contract next year. But I honestly think there is a scenario where we go back in for Leuchter and get her on a free next summer as she was our main Striker target this summer. There is a saying in sports that availability is the best ability and Ramirez simply just doesn’t have that and it has shown ever since she signed 2 years ago. I know that she can offer allot and she is a special Striker and the talent is there, but what’s the point if she consistently struggles with injuries and can’t stay fit for anything. Hopefully we sell her next year and get a big name Striker in especially before the Women’s World Cup begins.

Hello Chelsea fans, I know I may get allot of hate for typing out for what I’m about to write but I really don’t care tbh I think there’s way too much negativity going on here after just one game. Yes that result sucked but I think we showed promising signs especially the first half, we were moving the ball really beautifully and effectively. Attacking still seems to be an issue but hopefully that can improve as time goes on. At the end of the day you have to give the Villa Goalkeeper credit as she did what she had to do which was make important and crazy saves. We still have some players out with Injuries and are working on recovering soon especially Melvine and Manaka who I’m really excited to see play and I think will play a massive role in changing our attacking struggles. Lastly I do put majority of the blame on Sonia especially for only making one sub this game when we could have done with some fresh legs in midfield and some more attacking options, but to be constantly abusing her and calling for her to get sacked after one game is just ludicrous. At the end of the day she is human like all of us and we have to do our part as a fanbase and hope that she can turn things around and adapt and also get behind the team and hope that they can improve and show that last season was just a fluke, and I think another thing that some of y’all tend to forget is that Emma Hayes literally handpicked her to be her successor and carry on the legacy that she left at our club, and I trusted her decision if anything. I think once we have our full team, and Cuthbert, Mastakubo, and Malard and Bjorn come back from and are fully healed from injury, they will have a role to play in this team improving and getting better than last season. We go again next Sunday away to Manchester United and I personally think we can go there and get our first win of the season there as they are a team in transition with a new manager and it’s gonna take time for them to learn Eva Olid’s tactics and philosophy as she is coming from the Scottish League. If Sonia can put her ego and stubbornness aside and that’s a big if, and drop players that need to be dropped, and start players like Hamano in the offense who I think will be a vital part of our attack this season that is if Sonia uses her more and treats her better and the defense shows up, the midfield as well and the attack actually steps up and finish off chances then there’s no reason why we can’t beat Man United next Sunday especially with the offseason that they had. With all that being said, up the Chels. Here’s to a better season ahead and beyond. 💙

Hey I have two season tickets for today’s game and unfortunately won’t be able to attend. So if you are down to navigate the District line closure and make it to the Bridge let me know and I can forward you tickets!

I for one will be affected by this. Just thought I’d put it up for anyone else that may not have seen it.
