The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Friday 22nd March 2024!

Might as well get the old jokes in for myself first!!

Morning all!

It’s a birthday newsletter for me today! All the best people are born in March! We had Luke’s birthday on Wednesday, my boy Solly was born on March 1st, and now today I am celebrating my birthday by registering the birth of my son officially, and then going for some cake in the local cafe. Absolute rock n roll star these days 😂

I might sample a beer at the weekend, and we are meeting up with family on Sunday for Solly to meet more of his extended family for the first time! At least Chelsea aren’t playing so no risk of them ruining my birthday this year!

There are international games on this weekend of course and plenty of Chelsea players to track and watch, so at least we do have some football on!

But until then, lets get the latest Chelsea content out….

First of all, lets roundup all of your latest Chelsea news from the last 24 hours in the same place here in yesterday’s live blog.

I had a sourced article out yesterday on the future of Conor Gallagher at Chelsea. Does he even have a future at Chelsea? What is going on with his contract situation? What is the player thinking? All of that and more in here.

This week saw a disgruntled Chelsea fan base taking aim at the ownership once again, and my fear is that they are also now creating a wedge between themselves and the Chelsea fans, which will only ever end in one way - more toxicity. The Chelsea Supporters Trust are very unhappy with the owners right now, and creating a divide will be a huge mistake. More on that in here. Obviously it’s important to also state that the CST do not speak for every fan of the club.

Luke was back after his birthday on Wednesday and he has decided to offer out some flowers to our star boy Cole Palmer! You can read his latest musings here.

Finally, a fun competition for you all in the shape of an interactive article that I’d love for you all to take part in. Podcast listeners will know that myself, Jai, and Carefree Jam had a battle this week selecting our best ever Chelsea draft Xl. Make sure you all remind Jai who won!! But anyway, I’ve now challenged you all to do the same, but there’s a catch….. There’s also a prize. So please do take part in that here!

Right, I’ll be back on the site on Sunday as usual, see you all then and have a great weekend!

Peace, Si.
