How much of this (beyond not being able to sell the club) is actually hurting the owner though? It just seems like the only people being punished at this stage are the fans. I'm more concerned that the boro fans get to see their team. I’m not saying that they shouldn’t. I’m asking why Chelsea can’t. If it’s too much like hard work for the UK government to figure out a way to put the proceeds in a trust or something, why not allow them to be given away for free?

Genuine question: could they not give the tickets away to local schools/charitable organisations?
You'd think if that was an option, to bypass the sanctions on selling tickets then their PR department would be all over it. At least then something good could come of it, they'd have some fans present as they wish and there would be some, however limited, positive noise around the club.

Chelsea can't sell any more tickets for their home games to away fans, so have they volunteered to play all their future home league games behind closed doors?

And the rest of their home games if no away fans can buy tickets not sure they thought it through all that well.....

They'll be in the Champo in 2 years if the sanctions hold and opposition fans have looooong memories

Genuine question: If Chelsea go on to win the FA Cup will they be allowed to collect the prize money?

Genuine question: If Chelsea go on to win the FA Cup will they be allowed to collect the prize money? Presumably it will go to HMG. And there won’t be any Chelsea fans present either.

They really have come out of this appalingly and the attitude of the fans is an absolute disgrace on the whole. They just come across as entitled misinformed ignorant idiots. I think they’ll become far and away the most despised club in the world and quite rightly so. Tuchel is way to good for them. They don’t deserve him.

On what do you base that? Because the allocation afforded to Chelsea will be redistributed elsewhere. What's the grand plan to stop Chelsea fans getting their hands on those tickets?

Nah, Plymouth Argyle should be reinstated and they should then play Luton who should also be reinstated to see who gets to play Boro. BM

Chelsea are coming out of this appallingly, but to be fair to their fans (some of them at least), the Chelsea Supporters Trust asked Chelsea to remove the behind-closed-doors request. All fans shouldn't be tarred with the same brush. As for Tuchel saying the players risk injury on a 5-hour coach journey, isn't it as simple as stopping at a service station or two for twenty minutes on the way? It's often people with money who seem so out of touch with reality.

It's a waste of time banning them from buying world class strikers, if you're going to just let them spend the same amount of money on snacks at Junction 16.

I think today has been a great (horrible) example of the disconnect between the Premier League and the real world.
Surely there must have been someone in the Chelsea hierarchy to have said "whoa, this isn't going to look good, we just need to keep quiet and suck it up".
Almost as bad has been the sycophantic journalist on Sky sucking up to Chelsea and trying to justify the unjustifiable.
It was also cringeworthy watching the FA representative trying desperately to squirm out of answering the MPs when he was questioned on Chelsea's request.
Chelsea might now have done the "right thing" but it has left a really bad taste.
