The chants aimed at Anthon Ferdinand have been roundly condemned by the Chelsea management, and they are clear in the fact that they will do whatever it takes to bring the culprits to justice.
Today they released a statement which read: ‘The chanting last night by a vocal minority was wholly inappropriate and Chelsea Football Club does not condone such behaviour.
‘We will be working with the appropriate authorities to seek out those responsible.
‘Chelsea FC believes – as we are sure do the vast majority of our fans – that all forms of discrimination are abhorrent and have no place in our society.
‘As a club we work hard on educating our fans on these issues and will continue to do so. We work closely with the football authorities and anti-racism organisations and we are fully committed to eradicating racism and all other forms of discrimination from the game.
‘Last night’s offensive chants were from a minority and as such, they do not represent what supporting Chelsea Football Club is all about.’
If any of the offending Chelsea fans are reading this then I just have two words to say to them. Grow Up!
