Chelsea owners depicted as clowns as fans launch 'get them out' campaign | HUVRIVY | 2024-03-23 16:08:01
Chelsea fans have launched a 'get them out' campaign towards the club's house owners and have printed stickers with Todd Boehly depicted as a clown.
BlueCo, the consortium led by Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, took management of Chelsea in Might 2022 from Roman Abramovich.
The west Londoners loved a trophy-laden spell beneath the Russian however it has been nothing in need of disaster for the club because the possession modified.
Chelsea suffered an abysmal 12th-placed Premier League finish last season and are struggling once more this term with the group presently sitting 11th in the table.
They have did not land any major silverware since Boehly came in as co-owner – losing the Carabao Cup final to Liverpool in February – and have utterly rebuilt the squad, replacing a number of established stars with young wonderkids on massive contracts, spending over £1 billion on new players.
Thomas Tuchel was the top coach when the takeover was completed but he was controversially sacked and replaced by Graham Potter by the new house owners.
Potter was then also faraway from the position following a dismal run as Mauricio Pochettino came on this summer time following Frank Lampard's stint as interim boss.
Chelsea fans are fed up with BlueCo and have now launched a campaign towards their house owners, printing stickers which they plan to put around Stamford Bridge.
The poster reads: 'Clownlake. Three ring circus. Get them out, we would like our Chelsea back.'
The Chelsea Supporters' Trust penned a damning letter to Boehly and Behdad Eghbali this month, warning that a lack of clear course might result in 'irreversible toxicity' and that 'extra impactful types of protest' might be on the best way.

'The current temper amongst supporters is critically low and cannot be ignored,' they wrote. 'The feeling that the membership has turn out to be a 'laughing stock', both on and off the pitch, is growing.
'The Chelsea Supporters' Trust regretfully believes that we're near, if not already experiencing, a big shift in supporter opinion that would end in irreversible toxicity, virtually regardless of outcomes on the pitch.
'Until the state of affairs improves, this appears more likely to manifest itself in additional targeted chanting, especially at televised games, and quite probably extra organised, overt and impactful types of protest by some sections of the fanbase.'
